Located in Bay Village, Bistro 14 offers a menu inspired by our local waters and traditional bistro cuisine.
Bistro 14 opened in 2004 and is located inside Bay Village, Beach Haven NJ. Since then, we have been serving interpretations of classic French bistro dishes using the best local ingredients, sourced from right out our back door in Barnegat Bay.
Thank you for creating lasting memories with us.
about us
Bistro 14
Bistro 14 features a large selection of East and West coast oysters that pair beautifully with panoramic views of the Barnegat Bay. Our Salvaged barn wood and rustic beamed dining room is the island’s original and is a perfect setting to enjoy our delicious, generous cuisine.

I wanted to make a restaurant that was different and unique on this island. Everything here was either Italian or everyone else served pasta. We wanted to focus on what makes LBI’s food culture great, namely seafood. Traveling, I always admired French cuisine, the bistro culture, the heavy movement of people going in and out of a restaurant. The sound of chatter and plates moving. In France I loved the simple family restaurants, the restaurants that served simple easy meals, nothing gaudy or grandeur. Just a good delicious meal. Here in LBI, getting the freshest ingredients is easy especially in this Garden State. The docks in Barnegat Light deliver the best seafood on the East Coast. We serve the best and freshest oysters on LBI, In fact we recycle our oyster shells so they can be reused for other oysters.
“Great place to eat and always a table if you get there early. I’ve had anniversary dinner and big family dinners here many times over the years and never of had a bad experience. Lots of seafood and other options”
