The Snack Bar is starting the summer of 2024 having settled a bitter dispute with its neighbors and the borough of Beach Haven.
BEACH HAVEN, N.J. — In the quiet contentment of a basic Holyoke breakfast enjoyed at the 76-year-old wooden counter of Holiday Snack Bar on Saturday, it was hard to conjure up what all the controversy was about., who’d ducked into the Snack Bar with Lauren Garofolo, 26. She went for a slice of the house-baked raspberry crumb cake.At Holiday Snack Bar, happy days are here again.
The Bowkers reached an agreement on the number of outdoor seats, and also agreed to build out a 10-foot buffer with their neighbor, with more shrubbery. They have removed or moved a bunch of the shabby chic, beachy relics they favor, like the whale’s tale remnant of a water slide, the odd door propped up against the fence between them and their neighbors.
It pitted lovers of the Snack Bar’s signature Lady Lord Baltimore Cake versus, well, nobody doesn’t love the Lady Lord Baltimore Cake Neighbor Carl Herckner said Saturday he and his wife, Shannan, never wanted to shut down Holiday Snack Bar, or get rid of all its outdoor seating. Rather, they wanted a return to pre-pandemic numbers of outdoor seats, and for all borough zoning ordinances and laws to be followed.
The mostly aesthetic changes Eileen and Brian Bowker made after purchasing the restaurant in 2021 that gave the place a bit of an island, Deadhead-ish vibe, were placed under a microscope. They battled over whether breakfast could be served. The settlement actually gives them an extra hour to be open, from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., but no amplified outdoor music.
