Theme Restaurants in New Jersey
New Jersey, located on the East Coast along the majestic Atlantic Ocean, has numerous outdoor activities from strolling powdered, white sand beaches to hiking through tree-lined hiking trails. Visit the Garden State for an active vacation or day trip, then dine at one of the following themed restaurants that make their home in New Jersey.

Medieval Times

The building for Medieval Times restaurant and show is reminiscent of a 11th-century Spanish style castle, complete with vast brick walls, flaming torches and knights in costume. Enjoy your meal while you watch a jousting performance. Stately knights compete on majestic, live horses. Start your meal after the King and Queen invite you to begin eating.

With no silverware so you'll feel like you are really in the Medieval time period, you'll sip your soup from a bowl, and will use your fingers to chow down hearty roasted chicken, spare ribs, herb basted potatoes and garlic bread, all served on a pewter platter. Cheer on your favorite knight will you dine.

Enjoy coconut shrimp, fish-n-chips, macadamia crusted tilipia, pot roast, fajitas, pizza and pasta. A wealth of soups and salads are available along with meal starters like quesadillas, calamari and cheese sticks.
