50+ Bites returns with brand new bites and an all new price
Beginning Oct. 10, A.C. Weekly’s annual culinary adventure known as 50+ Bites will officially return. Here’s how it works — you buy a pass which entitles you to one Bite from each participating restaurant in Atlantic County throughout the next 50 days (Thanksgiving excluded). Once again this year there will be more than 50 Bites (60 in total) and each will offer you a delicious culinary experience.
But the biggest and most exciting news? 50+ Bites is no longer 50 bucks! Did we raise the price? Nope. We slashed it. For 2019 a 50+ Bites pass can be had for just $25. That is less than 50 cents a bite. You simply cannot beat this deal. And don’t forget — a portion of the proceeds will go directly to The Community FoodBank of South Jersey.
Head to ACWeekly.com/50Bites to order yours today. This is the culinary event of the year. There is nothing like it. Don’t miss out!

50 bites Firewaters
Firewaters Saloon
Tropicana // Tropicana.net

This year they pair the suds with a sub — an Italian sub — with capicola, genoa salami, pepperoni and provolone. It tastes great, and it’s bite size, so it’s less filling too. A win-win.

Moneyline is one of the newest additions to Borgata to bet on the games as you hang with your buds. A great way to make that little get together better would be if you added bacon.

Mac and Cheese Bites
Wonder Bar is one of the few spots in A.C. where you can sit outside and enjoy the waterfront views of the back bays.

Manco & Manco’s Ocean City location threw us a curveball with their garlic parm wings, but their pizza is just too good not to have somewhere on this list, so the Somers Point location will be the spot to grab your bite of it.
