Classic & Farm-Fresh American Fare

Gather at the Blue Pig Tavern, our distinctive restaurant tucked in the corner of Congress Hall. Known for hearty breakfast, lunch and dinner favorites, its name derives from a gambling parlor sited in Congress Hall in the mid-1800s. Earlier still, in the 1700s, Elias Hughes operated a tavern for whalers on this site. It was the first tavern in Cape May. Today, we offer timeless classics and new seasonal delights with ingredients that are always farm-fresh.

It's that time of year again—the Blue Pig Tavern's Farm-Fresh Tomato Menu is back! New Jersey is famous for its tomatoes, and our very own 62-acre Beach Plum Farm grows 18 juicy varieties from cherry to beefsteak. This Garden State staple is continuously harvested from late June to early September.
