Summer Bargains in Atlantic City and Vicinity
Just because it’s past Memorial Day doesn’t mean you can’t get good deals getting to Atlantic City and having fun once you’re here.
First of all, it will be cheaper to get here on the ACES train from New York and Newark. The one-way fare from New York will be $29 on all trains from June 1 through July 5. It’s still a little pricier than the Greyhound bus, but it’s a lot more comfortable.
And once you’re here, you’ll have to eat. A few area restaurants are offering incentives for you to pick their establishment over the competition.
Starting June 1, The Palm in The Quarter at the Tropicana is offering a lobster dinner for two for $90. It comes with a 4-pound Nova Scotia lobster, choice of salad for each person and a shared side dish. It’s a nice and affordable way to celebrate a romantic occasion or a big score in the casinos. The promotion runs all summer long.
If you’re willing to leave Atlantic City and head south to Cape May County, Ocean City and Cape May are holding restaurant weeks. They’re capitalizing on the success of the Atlantic City event in early March.
Ocean City’s extravaganza starts today and runs for 11 days. There are 34 participating eateries, offering a three-course lunch for $10.09 and a dinner for $20.09. Kids can eat for $5.99. Ocean City is a dry town, so you can’t have wine or beer with your dinner, and you’re not allowed to bring your own, but the deals are good. Log on to www.eatinOCNJ.com for details.
Cape May is a little fancier, and further from Atlantic City. More than 50 restaurants are in on the deal to offer three-course dinners for a maximum price of $35.09 per person. Casual eateries will offer $22.09 dinners. This starts Sunday and runs through June 7. Logon to www.cmrestaurantweek.com for details.
