Reviews
"Super disappointing, they draw you in with a giant monkey so you'll patronize them and then afterwards when you get closer you find out it's a patriotic glurge about a dead family member rather than just a cool weird roadside attraction. They didn't even make it, they just bought it from an old go kart track!"
"One of only a few places in NJ to get untainted (alcohol free) gasoline. Alcohol is the main culprit in ruining your lawn and power equipment. It’s a little pricy but worth it if you want your equipment to restart after months of storage!"
"Wish I could give a better review because this place was recommended highly, but.... Stopped in for breakfast sandwich. Eggs, cheese, bacon on a toasted roll. Roll not toasted, mostly very crisp bacon, four bites in before I got to the eggs (more like one than two) and not much cheese. There is a lot to choose from on the menu. Eat in seating available. There is also car products available like oil, etc. like most gas stations sell. Last gas station before driving through the Wharton State Forrest pines towards Hammonton and gas prices reflect the location. The facilities are clean and well maintained. Lots of parking and handicap accessible. *This is another place that charges extra to use a credit card without clear signage* Everyone has their own experience/review. IMO Respectfully"
"This isn't about the movie. Read the plaque on Mighty Joe."
"Just a bit of Americana on the back roads of Southern Jersey. A neat find and homage to a classic film!"
