Mad Batter

This is the restaurant that started Cape May's Restaurant Renaissance. Famous for its sumptuous, creative breakfasts, the Mad Batter also serves up an equally exciting and innovative lunch and dinner menu.

Seafood steals the show: Try Crab Mapatello (crab and spinach wrapped in puff pastry) or Caribbean style Grouper. Meat lovers will savor the Rack of Lamb and Jerk-marinated Pork.

Enjoy your meal in the airy, skylit dining room, where there's often a local artist's work on exhibit. In warmer weather, dine right on the front porch for the quintessential Cape May experience.
