A third generation, family-owned restaurant and seafood company, The Lobster House is known for its iconic waterfront location on the Cape May Harbor. Home to its own commercial fishing fleet and market, fresh seafood at The Lobster House is served in a variety of settings and menus - both indoor and outdoor - from classic seafood house dining rooms to casual dockside tables and on a 130-foot Grand Banks Schooner moored here.
Lucky Bones Backwater Grille, also in Cape May, traces its name back to the days when Cape Island was a whaling village and when superstitious sailors never set sail on Friday. These brave watermen would stow away good luck charms to pro- tect them from the perils of the mighty sea. The "lucky bone" refers to the odd hook-like claw found only on male horse- shoe crabs. It was worn by these men to keep them safe between the wind and the mighty water so that they might return home safely to their loved ones. Lucky Bones is a casual restaurant where the food is made from scratch, including soups, sauces and desserts. The atmosphere is warm and fun, and it’s a place where locals and visitors dine together.
The Mad Batter on Historic Jackson Street in Cape May is one the town’s first fun and funky restaurants, and started the resort’s culinary revolution. Today, with its colorful interior and porch with the familiar striped yellow awning, it’s still one of the most popular stops in this town of great places to eat. The restaurant is the recipient of many critically acclaimed awards and is considered to be the “granddaddy” of Cape May's many fine restaurants. Dine on the front porch in-season, or in the skylit dining room or garden terrace. Browse through art exhibits or enjoy live music, including "open mic night" and Jazz at the Batter with friends of Cape May Jazz.

The Wildwoods Convention Center is the place to meet and a hub of activity in the Wildwoods. Offering 260,000-square feet of space, the center features a 75,000-square foot exhibition hall that can be split into two areas, 20,000-square feet of ball- room and meeting space, a 6,600-square foot oceanfront deck for pre-functions, plus 30,000-square feet of lobby and pre-function space. The center also has a flexible capacity of up to 7,000 seats in its main exhibit hall.
“The Wildwoods Convention Center has been a major contrib- utor to the economic development of our region. Our multi-use facility has allowed us to host simultaneous events such as weddings or banquets, meetings, trade shows and concerts all at the same time, maximizing usage of our 260,000-square feet of functional space,” says John Siciliano, executive direc- tor and CFO for the Greater Wildwoods Tourism Improvement and Development Authority.
On site amenities and services available include phone, Internet, Wi-Fi and cable service. The center's unique Teflon- coated fabric roof creates an attractive, acoustically stable interior that floods the show floor with natural sunlight during the day and permits interior lights to illuminate the sky at night. Floor-to-ceiling ocean views can be enjoyed from its outside deck, main exhibit hall and lobby area. The Wildwoods Convention Center also features a boardwalk extension that

allows direct access to the boardwalk and beach between meetings.
In addition, the center showcases glass doors that open to allow ocean breezes to blow in; voice and data communica- tion in its exhibit hall floor boxes; convenient loading docks; 38 blocks of boardwalk fun and excitement just outside its doors; on site parking for more than 700 vehicles; a highly talented staff of event planning, marketing and culinary experts to ensure successful events; and a convenient loca- tion within a day’s drive of one-third of America’s population with easy access from the New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, DC metropolitan areas
The Wildwoods Convention Center also is concerned about the environment, having had a 474 kW rooftop solar array installed recently, which now supplies 24 percent of the venue’s overall energy usage and reduces the facility’s carbon footprint by 179 tons annually.
