The Mad Batter's breakfast is outstanding! I had the batter home fries and the fruit bowl. The fruit bowl was excellent because the fruit was fresh and so beautifully cut. The batter home fries are made the old fashioned way, which is great because their is no peppers that give me heartburn. This is hands down the best place for... more

We had a party there for 30 people. The service was spot on, friendly and super efficient. You asked for a drink (a house-made, yummy, bloody marry made with pepper stoli) and moments later you had a drink. Never had to ask for water or wine to be opened it, was all done as needed by a very attentive (yet... more

This restaurant (in a B&B a few blocks from our own) was just wonderful -- really cute place with patio seating, tasty, inventive and fresh dishes, and very nice service. The award-winning crab cakes deserve the award. As a starter we ordered the special, baked brie, which was delicious. My husband ordered his main course off the specials, seared tuna... more

My wife and I dined at The Mad Batter on Thursday, October 25, 2007. It was, I believe, our fourth or fifth time eating there, and as usual, we had a splendid meal. My wife had the chicken (very tender and juicy) and I had their signature Crab Cakes, which, in my opinion, are the best in Cape May. Almost... more

The weather was nice so we were able to sit on the porch. I enjoyed the ambiance of the porch & the surrounding area. My husband had... more
