A Tuckerton Tradition

Welcome to Stewarts Root Beer - the best burgers in Tuckerton, NJ and home of the legendary root beer float. A classic American restaurant serving comfort food South Jersey has loved since 1959.

We are right on Tuckerton Creek near Little Egg Harbor, just a short drive from Long Beach Island. Pull up for car-hop service, grab a picnic table with killer water views, or dock your boat and eat here. From old fashioned root beer floats and ice cream floats to hot dogs, burgers and fries - it is that drive-in style restaurant NJ does not have enough of. Made fresh, served with a smile, and that classic Jersey vibe.

Always worth a ride through the pines to visit this iconic location. Sits right on the water with tables down by the dock.

Best place in southern ocean county for a 50's vibe, amazing ice cream, yummy food, and friendly service. I love taking my family here!

This place is just plain fun! We came here twice on our vacation. The big hit was the food but especially the root beer, diet and regular, in a frosty mug!

Really love this place. Atmosphere, food and service on point. I had the grilled cod today and it was magnificent! My grandson ordered his favorite Western Burger.

My wife and I had a fantastic experience! The food was delicious - classic hamburgers, ice cream, and root beer, all done right. The 1950s music playing in the background really added to the charm.

I have been ordering the same thing from Stewarts since I was a boy. One or two dogs with fixins, onion rings, and a cold root beer. There aint anything better than that on a warm, sunny day in New Jersey.
