THE WILDWOODS – Morey’s Piers is cooking up fun this summer with new restaurants, revamped menus and national food holiday celebrations. PigDog Beach Bar, the newest dining venue at Morey’s Piers, opens on Saturday, June 16. The grand opening festivities will take place from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. with giveaways, live music and beachside ocean views.
Here’s a taste of what Morey’s Piers has on the summer menu:
PigDog Beach Bar: Both family and dog-friendly, this new breed of beach bar is serving up tasty barbecue classics, cocktails and local beers on tap. Special dishes include the PigDog Dog, a foot-long all-beef hot dog topped with smoked pulled pork and jalapenos on a potato roll. The Pig Big, another must-try, is a sourdough loaf stuffed with smoked pulled pork, covered in Monterey Jack cheese, and topped with pickled jalapenos and scallions. PigDog Beach Bar invites pooches and guests of all ages to kick-back and enjoy the laidback atmosphere accessible via Raging Waters Water Park, the beach and the boardwalk. Open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; for more information, visit moreyspiers.com/food/pigdog.
