As 2024 kicks off, we want to pay tribute to some of the finest and most revered businesses at the Jersey Shore, so we asked the fine folks in Monmouth and Ocean Counties to name their top businesses in the area, and some outstanding places rose to the top of the list.

So here they are, the 5 most legendary Jersey Shore businesses for 2024 according to you.

Pete & Elda’s/Carmen’s. When it comes to thin-crust pizza, the Jersey Shore may be the home of the most well-known place in the entire state. If you haven’t had a thin crust from Pete & Elda’s, then you haven’t had a thin crust.
