If you’re headed to Asbury Park for a bachelor or bachelorette party, here’s a pro tip: start your weekend with a food tour. Specifically, this one: Taste of Asbury Food Tours. It’s low-stress, high-reward, and a ridiculously fun way to get your bearings, sample the town’s top eats and drinks, and get the entire crew hyped for the weekend ahead.

A Local Love Story with a Tasty Twist

Taste of Asbury isn’t just a business, it’s a passion project born from a cross-country adventure. Back in 2013, Bonnie and Justin Brown hit the road for six weeks, stopping in cities across the U.S. and diving into each one’s history and culture through food. Local bites became their favorite way to understand a place, and when they returned home to Asbury Park, they realized their own city was bursting with flavors worth sharing.

In 2017, they launched Taste of Asbury Food Tours to show off the culinary soul of this seaside town. As full-time teachers by day, Bonnie and Justin bring the same passion for storytelling, learning, and hospitality to their tours as they do to their classrooms. Their deep love for Asbury is baked into every bite and every story they share along the way.

Perfect for Groups, Zero Planning Required

Planning a group weekend is a job in itself. Coordinating meals, drinks, activities, directions…it’s a lot. But this tour handles all of that in one swoop. Whether you’re rolling deep with a 15-person bachelorette crew or pulling together a chill bachelor weekend with the guys, Taste of Asbury makes it easy.

They’ve thought of everything. You’ll walk (not too far, don’t worry) through Asbury’s most iconic neighborhoods, stopping at the best restaurants, cocktail spots, and dessert joints. A personalized digital itinerary keeps everyone on track, while your guide takes care of the details. Think of them as your tour guide, bartender, concierge, and hype squad all in one.

Food, Cocktails, and Photo Ops? Say Less.

This isn’t just about eating, it’s about experiencing. The tour includes curated food and drink tastings that highlight the town’s culinary stars and hidden gems. You’ll meet chefs and owners, learn a few local secrets, and find yourself sipping creative cocktails in stylish spots you may never have found on your own.

There are also plenty of Instagram-worthy photo stops (yes, your guide will snap the group pic), a specialty treat for the guest of honor, and optional add-ons like cookie decorating classes with Sweet Dani B. It’s indulgent, personal, and totally memorable.

Start Strong, Stay Full

We recommend making this your first official group activity after check-in. It’s the perfect kickoff: low-stress, group-friendly, and packed with flavor. Everyone gets fed. Everyone gets a drink (or three). And by the end, you’ll all know your way around town, and have a few favorite spots to hit again later.

Even better, the tour ends right where it started, so you’re never far from your ride, your rental, or your next round.

Food, Fun, and Full Bellies: What More Could You Want?

Asbury Park has a lot to offer, but Taste of Asbury Food Tours is hands down one of the best ways to dive in. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the city, a few new favorite dishes, and a group of happy (and slightly buzzed) friends ready to take on the weekend.

So if you’re planning a bachelor or bachelorette bash in Asbury, skip the guesswork. Book the tour, show up hungry, and let the good times roll.
