About this Event
An Afternoon of Taste & Discovery
Discover a little more. Taste something new. Stay awhile.
There’s more to discover at the Jersey Shore.
Join us for The Pier Village Experience, a complimentary afternoon designed to take you beyond the boardwalk and into the places, flavors and experiences that make Pier Village one of Long Branch’s most vibrant coastal destinations.
Spend the afternoon wandering from one experience to the next, discovering special tastes, seasonal treats, exclusive offers and unexpected experiences created by participating Pier Village restaurants, cafés, retailers and entertainment destinations.
From a bite by the ocean to a little shopping, a round of mini golf to bowling, a coffee break to cocktails and dinner, The Pier Village Experience invites you to explore Pier Village at your own pace.
