If your family is looking for a nice, quiet candle-lit dinner, with expensive wines or beers served in snifters, we’d recommend you look elsewhere. But if your family is looking for a fun, friendly place with a casual atmosphere, excellent food and drink, and attentive wait staff, Joe’s Beach Road Bar & Grille at the Barley Neck Inn may be just what the doctor ordered. Joe’s menu caters to palates of all sizes and shapes, offering dishes from Chicken Pommodoro and Penne Bolognese, to the signature Joe’s BIGGER & BADDER Burger (10 oz. certified black angus on a sesame seed bun with lettuce, tomato, onion and French fries). With such a varied menu (quesadillas are listed right above “The Ultimate Reuben”), Joe’s is perfect for anyone who’s looking for something a little different from the more traditional New England fare. But don’t get it mixed up — their traditional-styled seafood is also excellent! The Kids Menu is just as varied, offering everything from a “Cup of Chowda” to linguini with red sauce, popcorn shrimp with French fries and more.
