El Meson: Great Mexican Food
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...
Federicis: The ORIGINAL Federicis
suzannehye Says:
A mainstay on Freehold's Main Street for 50+ years, I love the feel of Federicis - this is no "fern bar", just an old school Italian restaurant with some of the best pizza in the world. Baked in brick ovens, it has a thin, crisp crust, and just the right amount of FRESH...
Olde Silver Tavern: The "local" bar

Freehold Raceway Mall
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.
Freehold Raceway

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...
