It was ok. Not what the internet said. Hardly anything is opened. The places they say are opened have limited days, none of which matched our vacation plans. It's NOT a place for a winter break unless you just want solitude.
Downtown Cape May during the holiday season is like stepping back in time into a picturesque Hallmark Christmas movie… BUT the crowds are insane. I frequent Manhattan every year during Christmas and the parking situation, food reservations and over crowdedness are on that level. I’d plan ahead and take an Uber directly to Congress Hall and plan your itinerary from there, that will eliminate an hour of stressful searching for that ONE coveted parking spot. Other than that, it’s a must do. The attached pictures are of the Winter Wonderland in the Congress Hall courtyard. Live music, heaters and fires surrounding the pool. They have various venders and a small food selection, but expensive drinks under the heater poolside was a win for me compared to the 5 restaurants we visited and were shot down to even get on the waiting list. It’s holiday entertainment with a touch of class. Definitely a must on the “Holiday Adventures Bucket-list!”
A fun place to visit. Great boardwalk. Washington Street pedestrian mall has great stores and restaurants.
Really nice shops clean it was not crowded and some of the surrounding historical homes was pretty neat to see
Interesting shops, beautiful weather, plenty of benches, a clean, vibrant environment, and beautiful weather... it was a perfect day. As always, worth the drive into Cape May!
Loved walking the downtown, historic areas. Came for two nights and that was all we needed. The buildings are wonderful to walk around and admire. The town is nicely lit up at night in the square (not so much on the streets). Really fun weekend trip or even just a day trip to get out of the house.
Fun town! Clean, colorful and quaint.
I visited Cape May downtown on two occasions recently. On Monday night, and a Tuesday afternoon. I was pleasantly surprised how many patrons there were and most of the businesses were opened up.
Overall this magical little town has a lot of curb appeal, as well as many shopping options. I highly recommend for a day trip or a whole week. A good place to shake off the world and cozy up on the beach! You will not be disappointed!
