River Hills Cafe and Bistro (formerly John's Cracker Barrel)

River Hills Cafe and Bistro, a longtime Shark River Hills staple, combines a classic deli, grill, and pizzeria with a dedicated homemade ice cream window. Guests find hearty breakfasts, sandwiches, salads, and pizza, along with well-regarded coffee. Casual indoor tables and a small garden area, some with views toward the Shark River, contribute to its easygoing neighborhood feel.
