Over the next five decades it would house beer halls - complete with his and her entrances- off-track betting, comedy shows, exotic dancers and developed a reputation as an excellent live music venue. Hopkins said they decided to close in February in order for the 30 staff who will be affected by the closure to more easily find work around the city as it ramps up for the busy summer season.Īccording to the Tally Ho archives, the hotel was originally built by Archie McDonald and opened in 1961 with 50 rooms, a beer parlour, a cocktail lounge and a restaurant. They do not expect the building will be razed until next year, and the company said it will maintain the exterior of the building until then. “It’s better to clean slate the property and not have the existing building limit what the possibilities are.” “The building is 56 years old, and due to the manner of construction and the age it’s really at the end of its life, it would be hard to repurpose,” he said. What they do know is the entire structure will eventually be demolished. “We expect it will be a few months before we are at the stage to make a application,” he said. Hopkins said they do not yet have a vision for what will replace the hotel, but he suspects it is likely to be a mixed-use development with components of retail, commercial and residential. “The building is old, the bones are old.” “It soon narrowed down to the best use of the property included redevelopment,” he said. Since the hotel closed, the ownership group has been weighing the cost of further improvements over development options and trying to determine the best use of the property.

The new group brought the Tally Ho name back (Asfar had called it the Vacation Inn) and put about $1 million into the property over the last five years to upgrade the exterior and completely remodel the sports bar and cafe. It had previously been owned by John Asfar as part of his Traveller’s Inn chain. Hopkins and his partners bought the Tally Ho in 2011 out of receivership for $4.2 million. “The decision has been made to now start focusing on the redevelopment component of the site.” “It has been a difficult decision to make, but when you have turned the page you have something new and invigorating to ,” said Hopkins. By the end of February both the Tally Ho Sports Bar & Grill and the Hideaway Cafe will follow suit. The Tally Ho is a classically beautiful Hampshire farmhouse, lovingly converted to an immensely characterful pub restaurant. The ownership group closed that department last fall. The city has already bid farewell to the Tally Ho’s hotel. “The hotel has been around for 56 years of operation in the city and it has a lot of meaning to people, so there will be a lot of final nights - the last Super Bowl, a final UFC event, a final blues night - it will be more celebration than sadness.” “The decision was made that over the next three or four weeks we will announce a bunch of celebration events,” said co-owner Wayne Hopkins. With plans to demolish and redevelop the entire 2.5-acre site, the ownership group behind the hotel, pub and cafe has decided it’s last call for a pint, a final game on the big screen and a blast of live music. Would definitely recommend.After 56 years, the lights will go dark for good at the Tally Ho at the end of February. Still giving it 5 stars based on our first time.

We had to ask three times for water and finally the owner, Nick, brought it. The portion was generous and I'm having it leftover this evening with shrimp and peas to add some color and texture.
I had to dig under the mound of pasta to find them (picture below). It was very tasty but severly lacked in presentation and the three tiny shrimp and three small pieces of chicken were pathetic. We had shrimp parm, stuffed sole with shrimp and crab. Price is reasonable and the bar atmosphere is nice and friendly with a few TVs. It's not easy finding a bartender that can make a good martini and manhattan. Food Delivery Restaurants in Tinton Falls.Italian Restaurants for Families in Tinton Falls.
