The Squire at Branches is a full-service restaurant and bar nestled in beautiful West Long Branch. This hidden Gem has gone through a major renovation, with an expansive bar, a beautifully-crafted wine room, and a gas-burning fire place. The electric menu was created by Chef Cliff Richardson; a culinary prodigy whose passion has taken him around the world. Experienced in Caribbean, French, Italian and American cuisine. Chef Richardson worked his way through the ranks at the Malliouhana Hotel under the leadership of Michelin Star Chef Michelle Rostang in Paris.

The Squire is best known for their Surf & Turf Board- 32oz (CAB) Porterhouse Steak, 2 (6oz) Cold Water Lobster Tails, Pan Seared Dry Diver Scallops & Jumbo Shrimp accompanied with your choice of sides.

The Squire is a MUST VISIT- with amazing food, beautiful ambiance and great service.

- Happy Hour is Offered at our Bar and High-tops Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday 4pm-7pm

    Valentines Day Pre-fix menu had great options and everything we had was delicious. Only suggestion is to have more premium wine options available by the glass. Bottle selections were good.
