Lucille's Country Cooking

Was passing through on my drive back north from AC. I googled “breakfast” and this spot came up. I said, why not? It’s your classic local spot. I absolutely loved the ambiance as soon as I entered. Staff are super friendly. Food was exceptionally delicious. The French onion soup hit the spot, so perfect. I don’t know when I’ll be back down south but if I’m ever in the area. I will 1000% be back with friends!

We drove 40 mins to get out here, and it had awesome prices for food that's really good. I got Lucille's Meatloaf sandwich, and it was so interesting because it's not like my mother meatloaf lol. I feel like it was mixed with stuffing it was so light and delicious. The pies and soup was delicious. Small but cute with very good food. Love the Jersey Devil nods to the area. I would definitely go back when I am in the area. Highly recommended.

I absolutely loved this place. The food was excellent and the staff was kind and friendly. It’s a classic! It’s authentic! And it’s welcoming! We were driving on the way to Cape May, and the moment I saw it I decided to turn around and stop for a quick lunch. It did not disappoint! My husband forgot his cross shoulder bag there with his wallet in it. They kept it safe until we returned and opened the restaurant after their working hours to return it to us. We very much appreciated it! We will be back for breakfast! Highly recommended!

All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The corned beef hash was delicious. Crispy and not greasy Biscuits and gravy were yummy Grits were slightly bland and could have been more creamy. I will definitely be back next time I am in the area Our server was very friendly and helpful. Never rushed us, and answered all our questions. We felt like regulars. Kudos to the staff

Stopped here to see the Jersey Devil out front and also get a great breakfast. My sausage, egg and cheese sandwich was DELICIOUS and the Jersey Devil was cool. Fun to see the pics of Anthony Bourdain on the wall and friendly service, as well.

Great, small eatery with friendly staff and amazing food. Definitely worth the stop, or the trip, to this hidden gem! Try the toasted sticky bun, you won't be disappointed! Will definitely be going back here for sure, which seems to be what happens with many who eat here - the restaurant has tons of regulars which is always a great sign!

My wife and I had breakfast at Lucille's for the first time and we can't wait to go back. The service was fantastic. They really make you feel like family. Anyone can do eggs and toast, but if you come here you must try the biscuits and gravy. We also took home a peach pie and it's the best pie I've ever had in my life. So do yourself a favor and stop here for breakfast or lunch. Don't let distance be an excuse, we live an hour and a half away. This place is legendary.

If you crave mouth watering, down-home country cooking, Lucille’s Country Cooking is the FIRST place and in my opinion, the only place you should come! It stands on Main, country like/ county road in Barnegat Twp. set in a very country surrounding. So not only is the food down home country but so is it’s surroundings and environment. It feels like you’ve left NJ and went down south! Absolutely proud that it actually is in Southern NJ or as we say South Jersey. You can sit outside on the covered patio, or umbrella covered picnic tables or inside. Just about any dish you try is absolutely savory and you can taste the home country cooking. Their portions are generous and prices are fair for the portions and experience you have. They are a family run place and open from 8am-2pm Tues-Sunday. They also bake fresh homemade pies and desserts for purchase to take out as well as sell the famous Jersey Devil Merchandise. I had the biscuits and gravy meal that I can happily say was the BEST homemade biscuits and gravy I’ve had that includes having had down south and even at the most classic diners. Every element of this dish is home-made from the fresh baked biscuits, shredded home fries, the whole fresh sausage and homemade gravy. My party also indulged in a BLT sandwich with fries and a fresh made to order omelet with tomatoes, peppers and onions, gluten free toast and home fries. Don’t forget to have a steaming hot cup of coffee there too. If you’re into four wheeling and off road Jeep mudding/riding, come on by with your vehicle. They welcome you with open arms and plenty of parking. It’s also a hot spot for classic cars and Harleys!
