The 'Hawkin Deli in Manahawkin brings real NJ deli taste to the Jersey Shore!
While New Jersey might be informally known as the Diner State, we do love our delis. If you grew up in New Jersey, deli sandwiches are a way of life!
The 'Hawkin Deli is a relative newcomer to Manahawkin. But it brings great deli sandwiches to the Jersey Shore. Used to be the only deli available around here was from specialty shops (too expensive) or chain sandwich stores (too boring).
Located at 100 McKinley Avenue (the road running from Route 9, parallel to Route 72, behind ShopRite and Wal-Mart), the 'Hawkin Deli offers the usual hot and cold subs, plus specialty sandwiches, great for lunch or a fast dinner.
I’ll often stop for my mid morning breakfast sandwich, the New Jersey staple, Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese on a hard roll. But my favorite sandwich at the 'Hawkin Deli is called the Sloppy Zo.
Now a Sloppy Joe is a well known deli treat in New Jersey. If you’re thinking of the ground meat mess on a hamburger roll, you’re wrong. A deli Sloppy Joe is ham, turkey, Swiss, Cole slaw and Thousand Island dressing all piled high on fresh rye bread. Well, you can order that, but I recommend the Sloppy Zo.
The Sloppy Zo at the 'Hawkin Deli replaces the ham with thinly sliced roast beef, tops it with freshly sliced turkey, some Swiss cheese, Cole slaw and Thousand Island dressing sandwiched between two slices for fresh rye. Mmm!
As if that wasn’t enough, this and all specialty sandwiches come with fries, or my favorite Tater Tots! If you’re watching your figure, make any one of the great sandwiches a Wrap. Or you can try one of the 'Hawkin Deli’s build your own salad.
Choose romaine, iceberg or Spring Mix with dressing and it’ll be $4. You can add 3 toppings for $1.50 or 7 for $3.00. Toppings include everything from walnuts to cauliflower.
The 'Hawkin Deli is also very community conscious. When the Friends of the Barnegat Library (FOL), asked for help in providing our annual lunch for all Barnegat Library employees, they stepped up to the plate (bad pun) and worked with us on pricing and special orders!
The Barnegat Library employees are still raving about that lunch 4 months later, and are hoping the next lunch the Friends of the Library provides during National Library Week comes from the 'Hawkin Deli.

Fresh seafood in Manahawkin does not have to involve a ride over the Causeway to Long Beach Island. A great Manahawkin seafood option is the Exit 63 Seafood Corner, located at 743 E Bay Avenue in Manahawkin!
Open year round, Exit 63 Seafood Corner combines great prepared seafood and a fresh fish market. On my last visit, I had Blackened Tuna over rice ($19.00), while my dining partner had a wonder seafood combination in a white wine garlic sauce over linguini (also $19.). There are daily specials, and it's the freshest seafood in Manahawkin.
This time of year it's good to have a local Manahawkin seafood restaurant, because after a long day the last thing you want is to battle the crowds at restaurants on Long Beach Island.
The Exit 63 Seafood Corner building itself is small, and it's been a Manahawkin seafood staple for years. I had been there when it was known as Corey's, but the new Exit 63 owners have taken it to the next level...fine dining and fresh seafood in Manahawkin.

I first tried dinner at Exit 63 Seafood Corner in April, well before the summer crowds. It was on the recommendation of a client, and what a find!
Exit 63 Seafood Corner is open daily, and also serves lunch. The service is fast and friendly. Seafood prices vary due to changes in market prices for the freshest seafood in Manahawkin. There is no liquor license, so bring your own wine, they'll provide glasses and chilling buckets if needed.
