Bridging the Gap Between Central Jersey's Right Bank and Left Bank
After adding "The Lounge" in 2013, Pino's Gift Basket Shoppe and Wine Cellar (a "green grocer" in it's former life) has become a niche neighborhood lounge and bottle shop. What started as a simple "Wine Bar", now offers craft beer, artisanal spirits, wine, seasonal and barrel-aged cocktails. The Lounge has slowly grown, and hosts a variety of gatherings including tastings, live music, themed parties, and fundraisers, but sadly, with no kitchen, there is no food served in house. Though most guests are content with Pino's "BYOF" (bring your own food) policy, since Pino's provides take out menus for all of the local restaurants, the desire to offer food for events was still there.
