Grandma's Cheese Cafe — Restaurant in Long Branch

I had high hopes for Grandma’s Cheese Cafe, but my experience was absolutely disappointing. I ordered half a sandwich and paid $30, which is outrageous considering the portion size and quality. The sandwich itself was tiny, poorly constructed, and lacked any real flavor or creativity—just a bland combination of ingredients that felt rushed and uninspired. The presentation didn’t help either; it looked sloppy and unappetizing, especially for the price point. On top of that, the service was slow and inattentive, which made the experience even more frustrating. For $30, I expected a carefully crafted, delicious meal—not something that felt like an afterthought. Overall, the combination of ridiculously high prices, subpar taste, and poor service makes it impossible for me to recommend this place.

How do you add a new twist got an old favorite? Change the ingredients! This was my first time eating here at grandmas cheese, and I’m so thankful I stopped here to support a small family owned local business. I got to meet the owners and their family and it’s always a bonus to know when good food is backed up by great people.

I ordered the classic grilled cheese. Classic is clearly an understatement here as this mozzarella (original flavor) he’s definitely worth making a trip for!!

The tomato soup was clearly homemade and has just the right amount of thickness; with explosive flavor.

So yummy!! Highly recommend you stop here when you’re in Long branch and looking for a good comfort...

Went down to the shore with my family for Father’s Day. We found this place online and the menu looked very good and we were excited to go. We went and placed our order and waited outside. After seeing other tables get served that ordered after us we became skeptical and went inside to ask about the status of our order. They said they don’t have our order. We thought they gave us the wrong number but they checked with the kitchen and they never even started our order. We had waited about 30-40 minutes. Only good thing was they gave us a refund so we went down the street at another restaurant and got our food in ten minutes. Happy Father’s...
