Mad Hatter has been closed since Sandy.Red Bank - the Globe Hotel. I saw this mentioned earlier and agree the dive atmosphere is appealing.
Sea Bright - Mad Hatter. Also dive like and best avoided late but can watch games and enjoy the atmosphere
Rumson - Barnacle Bill's. Great view but it gets points off though since they got rid of the peanuts years ago. I'd rather go around the corner to the speakeasy inspired......(not sharing this hidden gem). Also, shout out to the retired Hook Line & Sinker which would make my list if still around.
Highlands - a lot of the highlands flavor that made the bar scene so great is missing now. Off the Hook is still a good spot with a great view. The old Wind and Sea would have gotten my vote here and the new Proving Ground that took over still is on the water looking out at Sandy Hook. They have sports on but is a bit fancier and more expensive. Worth checking out for sure but not the perfect vibe for a game.
