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.

    I’ve dined here several times both Dinner & Lunch never Disappointed.. Last night my Son in Law & I enjoyed a couple of Apps off the Happy Hour Menu. Spicy shrimp & chicken Wings, both were delicious, the Ponzu sauce on the wings had just the right spice. The Shrimp as well were Fantastic , charge me a little more and give 4 shrimp per order, easier to share.😊 Entree’s, Dan had his usual 14oz Berkshire pork Chop with a maple bacon apricot chutney with whipped sweet potatoes, cornbread & veggies . I ordered the 14oz Grilled Veal Chop port wine Demi glaze with Parmesan crusted fingerling potatoes mixed veggies.. I ordered mine med/rare, Chef Nailed it…
