Route 173 Dining · American-Italian · Gastropub · Spanish & Portuguese

Bethlehem Food & Drink

Bethlehem Township has a compact dining scene concentrated along Route 173. This page intentionally lists only establishments physically inside the township rather than pulling in nearby restaurants simply because they use an Asbury mailing address.

Use the dietary filters to find restaurants with current documented Gluten-Free (GF) or Dairy-Free (DF) options.

Dining directory

Allergy & cross-contact caution: GF and DF badges mean current menu or dining information supports at least one relevant option. They do not mean a dedicated gluten-free or dairy-free kitchen, and they do not guarantee safety for celiac disease or food allergies. Always confirm ingredients, preparation and cross-contact directly with the restaurant.

What the local scene looks like

Route 173 cluster

Bethlehem's verified restaurant activity is concentrated in a short commercial stretch of Route 173 near the township's western/central corridor.

Casual to full-service

The current mix spans pizza and neighborhood bar food, gastropub dining and full-service Spanish/Portuguese meals and events.

Farm food is nearby — but separate

Farm stands such as Central Valley Farm belong in Business & Shopping because their primary purpose is food retail rather than prepared dining.

Why some nearby restaurants are not here

Bethlehem Township's postal geography is misleading. NJTGO checks the municipality rather than relying on “Asbury” or another mailing city. Nearby Union Township dining can have the same Asbury postal address but belongs in Union Township's guide, not this one.
