Victory Bar & Grill

While in the area I found this place. Decided to give it a try. Went with the Lemon Pepper wings. They were very good. Loved the dry rub. Then had the chicken avocado wrap. Was also delicious and not skimpy for a wrap. Give them a try.

Great food, great atmosphere. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. The layout is awesome. There's regular sit down dining, a really nice bar area, and patio dining. Whatever your mood and no matter the size of your party, Victory has you covered.

Service - Tiff was amazing and fast and friendly! She was flying around the bar area taking care of people with perfection! Food - See the videos and images but don't leave with trying the hash browns ! They should be famous for them! Seriously... Delicious! Enjoy!

We didn’t get a chance to eat here because we were told they’re no longer serving people 1.5 hours before they close. The waitresses looked as us with utter disgust when we walked in the door. We ended up going down the street to the palace diner and finished before victory bar would’ve even been close to closing. Victory bar barely had anyone there to eat or at the bar, but Palace and Ollie gators were PACKED tonight. I can see why every time I pass victory bar and grill, it’s dead and empty. Terrible service.

Feel bad giving a one star but absolutely terrible and overpriced. As soon as food showed up , I noticed all three plates of fries undercooked. My burger (ordered medium well) was cold and bloody inside (I coundt even eat the middle. Just the outside) and my buddy ordered a side of fried..... 10 freaking dollars Never again. Shame I used to go there a lot.

I didn't expect it to be anything special but it was very pleasant and the customer service was unbelievable. I would suggest to go and try it out if you have never been there. They make you feel right at home. The food was very good and hot when it reached the table.

First time here so wasn't sure what to expect. As we walked in it had a diner feel. The friendly host and hostess asked if a booth was fine. I asked what other types of seats do you have? The gentleman said there is bar seating and high tops, and in the second bar there is live music...he then said follow me and took us on a walk to show us. The place is huge. There is a spot for Sunday brunch the happens every weekend. The first bar is quieter than the second bar which was added within the past year. This one during warmer months had roll-up doors. They also have an outdoor seating. The new bar has live music and a great vibe. Plenty of TV's at both to watch the games. Happy our until 7pm all week!! Great prices, very good food and great staff. Breakfast menu served all day!

The food was pretty good and the service was above average. The Chipotle Panini was fair and lacked much flavor. The chicken was overcooked, but the fries were crispy and delicious. The crock of French Onion soup on the other hand was amazing and may be the best I’ve tasted. It was full of flavor, had large onion slices, and was it was topped with an abundance of cheese. I heard this place was very good for watching sporting events so I will update this review if I return for an Eagles or Phillies game.

Ive driven by a handful of times over the years, but had never been. My sweetheart friend/former student was having a unique themed birthday party called SWIGS AND WIGS! We all got the "assignment" right! It was so creative and fun! :) I had a bison burger for the first time and liked it a-lot! The side Caesar was very good too. My daughter loved her beef burger and everyone else that I heard talking, had similar positive reviews. Crazy noisy in here with other parties going on concurrently. It just added to the fun in my opinion! Nice prices and portion sizes. Great young male server was super attentive. Id come again.

This event took place on Monday June 30th , 2025 around 5pm EST. My fiance and I flew in from the Pacific Northwest on June 28th and I wanted my fiance to meet my family in person. I brought him home to South Jersey on June 29th and I requested that we make plans to go out to dinner. My cousin suggested that we meet up at Victory Bar & Grill. WOW what a treat it was to eat here! I also want to add just how surprised that on the Monday before the holiday how not crowded it was. One thing that I absolutely love about east coast food is the seafood! My fiance had the mussels with the white garlic sauce pasta and I had the Maryland crab cake portabella mushroom salad. Our appetizer was the Tarantino's mini panzarottis. Everything was so incredibly delicious and cooked to perfection! I also really have to thank our server for putting up with all of the little ones that we had with us that evening. We laughed , shared stories and took photos during and after our meals. Thank you so much to the staff for making my first dining experience back home in almost ten years so unforgettable! Also, my family absolutely loved my fiance and welcomed him in with open arms. Victory Bar & Grill will always hold a special place in my heart.

Good sports bar. Huge menu, and a huge outdoor bar when the weather is nice. Burgers are solid, and so are the wings and crab bread.

Stopped by for lunch. Diner vibe with a large extended bar attached to an older diner section. Friendly , attentive service. I had the Cajun chichen sandwich which was tasty overall but could have used a slightly more agreeable attitude fri rh

All went well. The food is good and our favorite server is Maria. We highly recommend Victory Bar and Grill. My neighbors (15-20) and we eat there most Monday evenings. Thanks for asking. mllitwin@yahoo.com.

I have loved this place since my old job had their Christmas party there. Great food with a larger selection to choose from. Try the Cheesy Crab Bread! Delicious appetizer. My only regret is I don't live closer.

Walking in the doors it has a simple "diner" vibe but to the left opens up to a big wrap around bar the seats easily 20+ people. TV's have sports on and the bartenders are wonderful. My black & bleu burger came medium rare and perfect with a few slices of bacon on it as well. Packed with flavor and juice with coleslaw on the side. My girlfriend's panini had thick cuts of chicken with crispy bread. Side of chipotle mayo to dip into made that sandwich. Fries were salty & crispy. Thick cut style 7/10

The food was good burger had great flavor, F.F nicely done. The restaurant was clean and the bathroom was clean. The food came out fast and correct. The service was good.

Decent food (think like Applebees but diner style, dependable favorites). Wish the outside was open more frequently. If it has to be in or out, ppl would rather be out. Due to location, I'm sure I'll be back.

Excellent service and food. Personnel are friendly and competent. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

Came and sat on the patio. Beautiful addition to the main dining/bar area. Loved the all window garage doors. Probably a great spot when weather is nice! Food came out quick and was your typical bar/restaurant food. Onion rings were amazing, nachos were plentiful, the wings were tasty, and the beers were cold! Their menu is pretty big so looking forward to trying some more stuff next time!

I must say I'm very surprised by my experience at Victory. This was my first time here even though I drive by occasionally. I never thought of stopping in until recently as family friends have been telling us how much they enjoy it there. I was invited out to eat with a couple of friends on Saturday night around 6pm. It was busy as they were hosting some sort of event (was told it's normally not this busy) but we were seated immediately in the enclosed patio. Melanie, our server, was fantastic all night. She was frequently making rounds to all of her tables asking if we needed anything, how things were, etc. She'd let us know she'd be right with us if she was walking by but was getting something for another table. She was also patient and professional with me as I had questions about the menu and beer list. Victory has Happy Hour every day from 11am-7pm. No, that is not a typo. Happy hour includes $4 house wines (not the greatest wine by any stretch but you cannot beat the price) select $3.25 beers, and $8 select appetizers. The craft beer list also has to be one of the best I've seen in the area! All draft craft beers were priced at $6 which I was pleasantly surprised by. I had an Axe & Arrow Ooh La La White Stout, a glass of house Pinot Noir, and a Carton Boat Session IPA. First time having both beers which I very much enjoyed. Our table also ordered a few White Claws and thought they were priced more than fairly compared to other South Jersey establishments. We started with fried pickle spears and fried mozzarella, both of which seemed to be breaded in house and not purchased packed and frozen. May have even been the best fried pickles I've had. We also ordered wings, a Breakfast of Champions burger (cooked medium rare), and a chicken wrap. Fried eggs are one of my favorite burger toppings and I was sold by the addition of bacon and pork roll. The wrap and burger were both served with fries, and plenty of them. No complaints about the food. Burger was cooked nicely, was told the wings and wrap were good as well. Despite the huge menu, the food did not lack quality. Portion sizes were generous and prices were reasonable. I thought the food was very good for being a bar. Our experience was positive all around from the service, prices, food quality, and serving sizes. The enclosed patio didn't really have a bar-type feel to it. Lighting was bright and it had more like a family style cafe feel to it. I'm hoping to sit in the bar area next time. I cannot believe this was my first time here but it definitely won't be my last. I already have plans to head back this coming Friday, not even a week after my first visit. I'll be looking forward to trying something new, but the fried pickles are already on our list for this upcoming visit.

It's my go to bar. Just a great bar! Especially for a game. The patio bar is second to none. The whole staff are so friendly and personable they really make you feel welcome.

We stopped for lunch today after not eating here for a few years. There wasn't a wait and service was great. But the food was not good. We ordered a crab cake sandwich, onion rings, buffalo chicken cheesesteak, kid's pizza, and fries. None of it was very good. The bill with tip was $100 for 2 adults and 1 child to eat a mediocre (at best) lunch. We were disappointed.

Fantastic dinner at Victory this evening. Place was full but service was quick. Food came within 15 minutes of sitting down! Ambience was decent (loud) but fun. Baltimore Vs Philly pre-season expo was on all TV's with large crowds of folks. Garlic pork sandwich was amazing, and their Cole slaw is on point with just the right amount of vinegar!

The menu is extensive but I always get the same things here. Their turkey club is the best I've ever had, packed with turkey, bacon, juicy tomato. Comes with perfectly cooked fries and cole slaw. I get it with their cream of turkey soup or tomato and rice, both delicious. My other favorite: their HUGE "Thanksgiving dinner" (what it's called on the menu). You get plenty and it's good and the stuffing is out of this world. My wife gets something different every time we go and enjoys it. But I stick with my favorites. Don't know why I even look at the menu. Never disappointed here. We go at "off" times and it's quiet and relaxing.

First time here so wasn't sure what to expect. As we walked in it had a diner feel. The friendly host and hostess asked if a booth was fine. I asked what other types of seats do you have? The gentleman said there is bar seating and high tops, and in the second bar there is live music...he then said follow me and took us on a walk to show us. The place is huge. There is a spot for Sunday brunch the happens every weekend. The first bar is quieter than the second bar which was added within the past year. This one during warmer months had roll-up doors. They also have an outdoor seating. The new bar has live music and a great vibe. Plenty of TV's at both to watch the games. Happy our until 7pm all week!! Great prices, very good food and great staff. Breakfast menu served all day!

Great! Great! Food! Ice cold Guinness on tap! The service is top notch! Ask for Anna. Anna is very friendly, attentive and professional not to mention very good at her job! This is a great bar with excellent food and service! Bring the family!

We have had two parties here and have been here about a dozen times. The waitresses have been very good and accommodating. But the people in the back not sure if they can't read English or don't understand English. But I hate pickles and have asked for no pickles every single time I've been there and have never had a meal without a pickle. The worst thing is each time you send it back they send it back two minutes later saying they fix the issue by taking the pickle off, even though the juice is all over everything. So I cannot even tell you how the food taste because everything I ever had there taste like pickles, which is disgusting to me. The worst thing is it's very close to my house. Very nice place but the people in the back are absolutely horrible.

Always great. Service and food. Tried something different with a blue cheese burger. Excellent. We've never had a bad meal heat. Rueben is delicious

I have been there 3 times and this will be my last. We went for the breakfast buffet. This is the second time the food was NOT hot. Luke warm at best. The bagel was as stale as a hockey puck!! The waitress was rude. Would it kill her to put a smile on her face or ask us how our food was? She never asked us if we wanted another cup of coffee. This is a bar and not a place to go if you are looking for a good breakfast buffet! Won't be back again!

We had a casual gathering of approximately 30 friends that had not been together for many years. I can not say enough about how accommodating the management and our server Matt was. In my estimation they went above and beyond!! Our event was in their Patio room. It is a large room, and everyone was able to move around and mingle. The food was great, and was served promptly as people ordered. I was happy that with a group this size, everyone was happy with their food and service. We will return, and I certainly will request our server Matt!!

Got the steak, regretted it. Fell apart like ground beef and was flavorless. "Caramelized" onions and mushrooms weren't caramelized. Vegetable medley was undercooked and also flavorless. Was surprised that the baked potato wasn't burnt or something. I would just order "safer" bar food like maybe chicken wings or a burger or pizza.

Great local bar with excellent food selection and super friendly people. Only spent time at the bar with Laura, she was the perfect bar tender. Extremely friendly and definitely knew what she was doing. Watched her make multiple drinks, even though I was drinking Coors Light. Highly recommend coming here

The food was good, the waitress was great... HOWEVER, both myself and my companion have severely compromised immune systems- at 4ish we went to eat on their open air patio which was at less than 20% occupancy. The bar and some tables were occupied and we wanted to sit by the opening, away from people - where it was entirely empty -the hostess acquiesced and let us sit at a six person table. After our food had been served, the owner, Andy, approached us and asked us if we had asked to be seated there. Then told us that we were "killing him" by taking a large table, again it was early, our food had been served and all of the similar sized tables except for one were unoccupied... and though the place was starting to pick up steam it wasn't even 5:pm. We told him we would quickly eat and be gone before it was an inconvenience. Then he told me to add the sauce for the sweet potato fries - I said, with cheer "I was allergic to things, What was in it? "To which he replied "whatever" and made a dismissive wave of his hand turning his back on us and walking away. While we finished eating, I watched him - a man old enough to have grandkids that knew better, be less than pleasant to his waitstaff and to see them physically flinch when walking near him. We were gone before the restaurant had filled the other large tables. I have NEVER IN MY LIFE FELT LESS WELCOME BY AN OWNER OF A RESTAURANT!!

We came here for lunch on a Friday. It was pretty busy but not crazy. We were hoping to find another place to come for a good meal and decent service. We were sorely disappointed. I ordered the flounder sandwich which was relatively tasteless. Even adding tartar sauce did not help. The cole slaw tasted just a smidge sour. Only the fries were good. My husband ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. It came with bacon but no lettuce or tomato. He said it was dry and tasteless. The service was spotty. Our waitress spent a lot of time talking to what I assume are regulars. She finally came over as we were finishing our meal. A little late to ask if everything was ok. With PJ Whelihan's and Dooney's not that far away, we'll forgo Victory and stick to the tried and true.

The service could be better at times, but the food is really good! Some favorites are the hickory burger, old bay fries that come with cheese sauce, and buffalo chicken dip. They have an extensive menu with lots of options.

Love this place. We go for breakfast frequently as well as lunch and DoorDash for dinner. The owners are always friendly and make you feel welcome. The food is always good and it's a great place to just hang out on the deck.

Extensive menu , great service but food was on the mediocre side... Prob won't be a return trip.

Best omelette in the tri-county area. I typically drive about an hour to Ocean County for the tastiest omelette I've ever had. This one is a tie and only five minutes from our house. Did extra American cheese, tomato, onion, and Canadian bacon. Our server was fantastic and the Bloody Mary was super yum. Will definitely be back.

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!!!! My family had came here on a Saturday night and we didn't know what to expect. Both the new addition and the old room in the inside were well designed and spacious. The menu had TONS of options ranging from breakfast to dinner. The table ordered chicken nachos, pretzel bites, and onion wings as appetizers as well as sandwiches, burgers, and pizza for dinner. The food came out relatively quick considering we had 8 people and the service was amazing. Overall, great place for friends and family!! Would totally recommend!

The annoying thing about ordering from grub hub is if the restaurant screws up your SOL. I placed a small order for 2 people and people still manage to not read the order correctly. I was missing a salad that was supposed to come with my entree. I'm also not sure why there's a Notes section on Grubhub if the restaurant doesn't even bother to read it. I asked to sub fries for double vegetables and a side of honey mustard and, of course, never received those either.

Still crap! .. spare some sauce? Second time getting wings here and there's practically nothing on them!? Is it lazy staff? Are you cheap? Poorly managed? Don't care? Do you think this is how it's supposed to be done? every time I get food here it sucks. Do you send leftover wings when people order for delivery?!? I'm genuinely curious as to wtf is going on as this isn't just a one time situation.

We were pleased with our overall experience. The manager accommodated our request to reserve a spot for us during a Sunday brunch. We spoke several times to confirm the date, time, and number of guests. The area was already set up for us upon arrival. Our waitress was attentive to the group of nineteen and the many requests thrown her way. There were many options to choose from. The guests from our party were happy and enjoying themselves as we celebrated the guests of honor and 63 years of marriage. The prices were reasonable. We would definitely come back.

I would've given this place 4 stars, but I took away a star for lack of air conditioning. It was hot when we went on a Monday evening for dinner! It was my first time here, my boyfriend's second time here. It's great that the restaurant is so spacious and has plenty of seating. Some of our friends love this place for sports/UFC fights. They have different specials every week: Monday - $5 Burgers Tuesday - $2 tacos/$3 coronas Wednesday - BOGO wings Thursday - All Day Happy Hour Their menu is huge. Lots of specialty drinks, lots of apps, sandwiches, and various dishes to pick from. I'm not sure when their happy hour is but they have $2 drafts, $2 bottles, $3 well drinks and house wines, and $5 apps. If you have NJCBC Card then they have rotating specials every month, for July it's $4 craft beers all day every day! The boyfriend was very happy. We both got the Breakfast of Champions Burger. DELISH!!! It comes with fries already, you can upgrade to waffle fries or sweet potato fries for $1.50 more. I was so stuffed from the burger! It had pork roll, bacon, and a fried egg. AMAZE BALLS! The food came out fairly quickly too. We sat the the bar so the service was good. I cannot wait to go back!

I'm a regular there but won't be anymore. First of all the the food is not great and the service could be better. They usually bring out the appetizers one minute before the dinner is served. Their beer lines mustn't be cleaned as their beer taste funny. Secondly, the manager has an huge ego and makes the customer think they are wrong. When question why the kitchen closed during a big sports night he said it always closes early and we should have known that and to make it worse he continued to berate us. If the kitchen closes early (8:30) why then didn't the bartenders call last orders due to kitchen closing like all other bars. He does not know how to treat a customer let alone a regular patron. Since the management doesn't care about their patrons I don't care about supporting them. We're off to another local like Gators, Otts or Dooneys.

Came to the patio bar on a Sunday at about 5. Bar was about 1/2 full. Sat for 10 minutes while the bartender chatted with other customers. No eye contact, no "I'll be with you in a minute", nothing. I stood up and said thank you and at that point the bartender had a big problem, as I left. Really crappy service.

We went there for the mummers Mardi gras but we couldn't sit unless we had to eat. So they ran out of the cherry ale and there we bench seats and I could see the show. The fries were going. Don't get the Mac and cheese which my friend and I got because there was nothing much selection, it had no flavor. The waitress help us out and we got two different things I got the wings which was garlic and heat which I couldn't see myself eating it and was so nice. I been to the on across the way. It is was better then here. If it wasn't for the band playing I can't see myself going back.

Pizza is excellent. Compares to any good pizzeria. Thin crispy crust great taste. Also had French onion soup and Buffalo chicken salad which were great. Reasonable prices and an extensive menu.

most of the time I come here , they mess up my food order. as big of a menu they have , I always seemed to be disappointed in the food. It never seems to be what's on the menu & manager / server never seemed to care about the dissatisfaction.

Breakfast wasn't great , so I never came back for the buffet after coming here for many years with my family . I stopped in at night for a few cocktails with friends at the bar , but it was a super rough crowd .

I stopped in around 3:00 Pm on a Friday with two friends. The dining room was empty except two other people at a table. We ordered our food soup, french fries, pizza steak, wings and a meatloaf platter. The soup came out hot and very good. The rest of the food came out barely warm. The pizza steak had some cold hard cheese on the bottom with no pizza sauce, also the mild buffalo sauce I ordered for the wings on the side was barbecue sauce. The waitress disappeared for about 15 minutes as I was sitting there waiting for my food to be corrected finally she came and gave me the sauces by then everything was cold. We ate but was very disappointed.

Not bad the food came quick the nachos are good it's just the pasta isn't too good here and the bathroom stinked overall the food was good and I recommend the nachos

Terrific casual restaurant. Good food, great service, clean...one of my family's go-to places.

We go here on a regular basis now that the world is returning to normal. My picky wife is always happy with the food and service. The owner is usually there making sure things are running smoothly and even works the buffet line. Very approachable and friendly.

Victory Grill is a decent enough place. The Hostess was a bit abrasive, but I tried to overlook that. The menu has a wide variety of lunch/dinner selections. There is a nice breakfast buffet for $11 on the weekends, which I've enjoyed. There is a large selection of craft beers if your into that.

Just left. Bartender was terrible. She was not that busy and moved at a snail's pace. Just wandering here and there and definitely wandered right past us numerous times. She brought out food for people sitting near us. After a few minutes the woman had to ask for her salad dressing and the bartender laughed and had no priority to get the dressing. She wandered around a bit more. We were still waiting to order our lunch. Finally, my husband asked if we could order. The bartender did not even acknowledge the request so we waited some more. She casually strolled over to take our order and we said just forget it. We left. She thought it was funny. We didn't. Will be a while before we go there again. Oh and this just in, the bartender and her friends are now sending me very nasty messages through yelp. I'm sure her manager will enjoy viewing them tomorrow.

I heard a lot about this restaurant and in a good way. Being in town on business I had to make it a point to eat there. Let me tell you, the atmosphere was nice and the staff was welcoming. I ordered the Cheesesteak Stromboli and it was delicious. I could only eat half of it. And just look at their desserts I felt I gained 10 pounds. Looking forward to coming back and order something else from the menu.

First time I ordered ... love the foods and I think I ordered too much and I didn't expected the portion was a lot.. but it's ok.. I ate the leftover the next day.... Definitely recommended!! Definitely gotta say KUDO to elderly active gentleman delivered to my home...very sweet person!!! .
