KiKitC Says: On the north side of Route 522 on the historic Monmouth Battlefield, some 7,000 soldiers of the Continental Army Artillery were stationed here on Perrine Hill. Here, on the roadside sits a blue, informative sign and tells an "historical" tale of Molly Pitcher. It...
Monmouth Battlefield State Park
KiKitC Says: Monmouth Battlefield State Park is the site of one of the largest battles of the American Revolutionary War. The park is located in Manalapan and Freehold Townships.Scottish and Dutch families settled this area in the 1680s, and by 1770 seven well-established farms stood on...

Moore's Tavern & Restaurant: Historical place to grab some good food!
Gypsystravels Says: As a historical landmark building, Moore's Tavern still contains all of its authentic wood beams and exposed brick, which dates back to the late 1790's. Because of town laws, the owners aren't allowed to make any changes to the original structure and have decided to expand...
brianoconnor Says: Try Angelo's on Rt 9 South. Great italian dishes. Love the Eggplant Parm and the Vodka Pizza. Very reasonable, great tuscan ambiance, private parties, BYOB and entertainment on Fri and Sat nights. Also kid friendly (recommend early evening though). I'm originally from North...
marca Says: Got to be the largest menu of any Mexican restaurant that I have ever gone to! Along with your choice of beef, chicken or pork in many entrees, you can choose lamb as well. Kind of unusual I think. My wife chose one of the appetizers and the server offered to make it into a...
Olde Silver Tavern: The "local" bar
matt1168 Says: The Freehold area's "local" bar, located in the small, historic town known as Tennent, is only about 5 minutes from downtown in a car or cab, and is a great place to grab a beer and a snack, as well as mingle with some people! Kids allowed in the back dining room only!
Getting to Freehold-Bus (Continued)
matt1168 Says: Academy Bus-"5" Series Buses- Provide rush hour service to New York in the north and Lakewood in the South, with some limited service mid-days. This service compliments NJT 139 service, and NJ Transit 139 tickets are cross-honoured on the Academy Lines Express buses as...
matt1168 Says: When in Freehold, the bus (or even walking) is by far the easiest and most hassle-free way to get around. Within downtown, for the most part, everything is walkable. To visit areas like the Freehold Raceway, Monmouth Battlefield, Historic Englishtown, Turkey Swamp Park, and...
Marlboro Diamond Plaza: A Diamond is Forever
matt1168 Says: For those of you looking for an expensive diamond jewlery product, the Marlboro Diamond Plaza is a brand new (and very fancy) Jewlery exchange just outside of Freehold. They sell every and any kind of diamond jewlery piece you could imagine, and you can pick up some good...
Figure out the bus terminal (cont)
matt1168 Says: Here is a guide to which buses stop where at the Freehold Bus Terminal, so that you know where to stand to not miss your bus. The number represents the bus route number. Also, do not follow the signs at the bus terminal, because many are outdated and incorrect....
matt1168 Says: A trip to Freehold will problably mean you will have to figure out how the bus terminal works, which to many people is very confusing. First of all, the bus terminal is located on Broad St. across the street from the 6-12 convenience store, just past the light at...
Most expensive taxicabs anywhere!
matt1168 Says: Watch out for the cabs that you can call or hail along Main St. or at the bus terminal! Cabs in this city WILL cost you a fortune, so try to walk or take the bus whenever possible, to avoid high fares.Example:The cab fare between downtown Freehold and the Freehold Raceway...
Neighborhoods to stay away from!
matt1168 Says: As in many other towns and cities across our nation, there are many neighborhoods in Freehold to stay away from. I will outline some of these neighborhoods here:1. Throckmorton St. west of Broad St. to Rhea St.: This neighborhood, not too far from downtown, is home to many...
matt1168 Says: Yes, I did include it in my "shopping" section, because it is one of the two major shopping areas in the area, but if you're going to go to a mall, stay away from this pathetic place and try going to the Monmouth, Woodbridge, or Menlo Park Malls. Monmouth Mall.
matt1168 Says: Yes, it's what's known most about Freehold, and yes, it's a famous race track.While I may not be the biggest racing fan myself, even avid racing fans will most likely feel this racetrack crowded, small, cramped, and old. Want good horse racing? Go to the Meadowlands, plain...
novillero Says: Every once in a while, there are tours coming through town that deal with the life of Bruce Springsteen. He is everywhere and yet nowhere. The tours generally go past his homes, E Street, passed St. Rose (his church and school), Vinyard Park, the fire station to see the Born...
novillero Says: There are some bike trails in the area.A rail trail starting off of 537, near the Shell Station - this is the southern section of the Henry Hudson rail trail; and there is a "monmouth Battlefield" ride (see below), and of course other nearby parks. If you go to the Freehold...
