Quote: Across the road from the Brigantine boardwalk, at the very northern tip of the island is a truly memorable restaurant for breakfast, The Pirate’s Den. The décor is very eclectic. There are all kinds of collectibles reminiscent of the Jersey shore, including newspaper clippings of the fire that destroyed the fishing pier nearby.
The hostess/owner brings you to your table and though it is crowded, I have seen worse (see my review of Kitchen Little in Mystic, CT)!
There is a whiteboard at the front of the restaurant with numerous specials, some very interesting, some vegetarian, some extremely healthy. Because it is fall, the special is Pumpkin waffles. Interesting, but I choose Eggs Benedict on this date. An interesting assortment of waffles, omelets, and pancakes are available from the menu.
Locals abound at this restaurant, especially in off-season. Isn’t that an indication of its quality? Indeed, it is. The food is tremendous, with a never ending cup of coffee flowing. The place is jammed in the middle of the week. Bodes well for business, I can imagine the wait in the summer!
Breakfast for 2 is less than $20, with tip.
Afterwards, walk it off on the beach across the street! You’ll love it!
