Union Township Food & Drink

From a 24-hour New Jersey diner and historic tavern to destination wine dining, a long-running chalet and quick highway stops, Union Township has a surprisingly varied food scene.

Why some addresses look like other towns: Several Union Township restaurants use Clinton, Hampton or Asbury mailing addresses. County and municipal records confirm the township for key establishments such as Clinton Station Diner, Cree Wine Company and the Pattenburg House.
Allergy & cross-contact caution: GF and DF badges indicate that current information supports gluten-free/gluten-aware or dairy-free choices. They do not mean a dedicated allergen-free kitchen. Shared fryers, grills, ovens, utensils and prep areas may create cross-contact. Guests with celiac disease or food allergies should confirm ingredients and preparation directly before ordering.
