LOVE this place! The chicken strips keep me coming back for more. Winter is great with homemade soups, etc!

Approximate cost: $8

An Ocean Grove institution for many years now, the "Piping Hot Chicken Shop" has recently changed ownership but has not missed a beat. Their chicken and hot chips in gravy are excellent, the prices reasonable, and they sell a wide variety of other foods such as cakes, hot foods, etc. The shop is quite large and always hosts live music, which is great for young up-and-coming talent. It's a great gathering place adorned with a lot of memorabilia from the previous owners' overseas travels.
