Restaurant

Experience fine dining and superlative service in our first floor gourmet restaurant.

Our restaurant offers five distinctive dining rooms, two fireplaces, a cappuccino bar and spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean.

In the warmer months, dine al fresco on our outside patio.

For that special occasion, enjoy the elegance and warmth of the Fireplace Room. Our fanciful Canine Room will delight you with its gallery of "top dogs", while the West Sun Porch will dazzle you with the view. Enjoy the view and the Yamaha player grand in the eclectic Salon. The Zebra Room with its stained glass tables and fireplace is perfect for either a romantic rendezvous or a small group gathering.

Executive chef Eric Hegyi has created an outstanding menu featuring updated American cuisine. Enjoy seafood specialties that include Seared Day Boat Scallops, South African Lobster Tail and our signature Lobster Crab Cakes. Filet Mignon, Rack of Lamb and the Mixed Grill will appeal to the meat eater.

The Peter Shields is a non-smoking restaurant. Cape May Vineyard wines are available, but guests can also bring their favorite wine, champagne or beer. All major credit cards are accepted. Dress is smart casual and non-metered parking is readily available on Beach Drive. We are sorry we cannot accommodate small children and infants.

Chef Eric Hegyi and the staff of the Peter Shields thank you for dining with us this evening and we hope to see you again!
