Lunch
​
Big Chanchos - Terrific Mexican food. We love their fish tacos! But everything is delicious. Great for take out, not a lot of seating I recommend calling ahead. 609-967-8226 (note that in many places there phone number is published incorrectly)

​
Taco Shop (Cape May Courthouse)
tacoshop is a casual, modern taqueria that pays homage to all the latino flavors that Chef Lucas Manteca loves. The menu takes its inspiration from Oaxacan cuisine, but that’s just where our journey begins. It also traces back to Chef’s Argentinian roots for empanadas, zips to Peru for ceviche, and back home to USA for a southern inspired fried chicken taco.Everything is scratch-made with fresh ingredients: from our made-daily tortillas, to the slow-roasted brisket; no canned beans here! We like to think of tacoshop as slow food for fast people. You can order online ahead of time
