New Breakfast/Brunch Spot Opening Soon In Lincroft

MIDDLETOWN, NJ — A new breakfast/brunch spot is coming to Middletown: Tatum’s Table will open in the next few weeks the Lincroft Grove shopping center (650 Newman Springs Road).

They'll serve breakfast, brunch and lunch, open from 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. daily.; check out their Instagram.

Tatum's Table will actually be run by a 20-year-old woman from Colts Neck, Tatum Menake.

Although she may be young, Menake has experience in the restaurant business: She worked alongside her mother and brother at the cafe he owns at Naval Weapons Station Earle, NJ.com reported.

“A lot of people have been telling me, ‘I’ve been wanting a breakfast restaurant in Lincroft for so long,’ so it’s just really nice to see people really excited and happy,” she told NJ.com. “I just really wanted to make something different.”

Menake told What Now Philly she hopes to open by the end of June.

She said she personally designed all the dishes on the menu, and guests should expect unusual tastes, flavors and offerings.

“We’re going to be a very different breakfast and lunch place — I’m a big foodie, I love to cook, I love to bake. I feel like everything’s the same here, and we’re very different ... I’ve been cooking since I was 5 years old. My family is in the restaurant business. It’s all my recipes so I’ll be overseeing everything and jumping in when I’m needed.”

“I’m most excited for the pistachio baklava pancakes."
