This is a great breakfast place in Beach Haven, as I'm sure you have read in countless other reviews. It is also one of the few places open for lunch in Beach Haven - don't go to the area thinking that you can run to cute little seafood shacks! They are all closed for lunch! Wide variety of stuff on... more

Read the reviews on trip advisor and decided to give the Chicken OR The Egg a try. Perhaps the anticipation created by the positive reviews raised the bar too high, but we found the service to be disinterested and the food to be nothing better than average.

We always make sure we visit this restaurant while in the area. The servers are quick and very pleasant. The food has always been great. The Breakfast Burrito and the Egg'al are favorites. Best place for breakfast in town! more

We ate at the Chicken or the Egg three times during our trip to Beach Haven. Every meal was excellent !!!! Plates that were passing by on their way to other tables looked great too.....I wanted to try everything ! I wish we lived closer so we could go there regularly. It's open 24 hrs during the season. more

Every time we go to LBI we have to eat at Chicken or the Egg. We usually do breakfast there and have never been disappointed. We go as early as possible because the lines during peak season can be long! The food is great and the service is also. more
