The Chat & Nibble

Delicious food with a variety of choices to suit all dietary needs. Reasonably priced as well! I had the Chicken Avocado Salad Club with a side of Sweet Potato Fries and would definitely be back again in the future.

The Chat & Nibble is a low-key spot where you can actually hear yourself talk — at least until a table of twelve rolls in at 10. We came for a quiet breakfast and left raving about their eggs Benedict lineup. The Jersey Benedict and Irish Benedict were our favorites, each with their own personality and perfectly poached eggs. The benny menu is way deeper than expected, and it’s all reasonably priced - considering the work put into the dish and the fact we're in NJ. Sides of banana and blueberry pancakes came loaded with fresh fruit — not just sprinkled on top — a detail we appreciated. One sticking point of the experience, though, was the service fee for parties of 6 or more, which was stealthy put on the check. The service fee for parties of 6+ is understandable, however, our 6th party

Had a great breakfast. Prices are amazing for Asbury Park. Everything you'd want in a traditional breakfast menu. The Eggs Benedict was good. The eggs were poached perfectly and the English muffin was the perfect size and crispy. The pancakes were delicious. Hash browns were your basic square fried patty. Was hoping for traditional sherraded potato hash browns. The staff was friendly and warm. Plenty of seating inside. I highly recommend this place. The lunch menu looks good as well. Will definitely be back.

I've been here for breakfast many times but finally decided to give their lunch a try. I was very pleased. I opted for the chicken salad club with a side of macaroni salad-- everything was nice & fresh, including the lettuce & tomato in the sandwich. It was clear the salads were homemade (and not too mayo-y, which I hate!). Very tasty! Service was excellent. I love the shabby diner ambiance. The walls could probably use a good washing & perhaps a new coat of paint, but it's places like these that are the heart of Asbury Park. More of this, less of the polished, Instagram-ready establishments. (I ate half of my sandwich before I thought to take a pic, btw!)

Small quaint diner on the corner with 6 booths, 6 tables, and 6 barstools. Service was fast, and portions were large. 3 chicken tenders on a large Belgian waffle and lox hollandaise with 2 hashbrowns couldn't be finished by my wife and I. Food was fresh and great, coffee bottomless and menu robust. $36 including tip.
