This Local Hidden Gem Restaurant Makes Atlantic City The Chili Capital Of New Jersey

Atlantic City is one heck of a town, like our own Las Vegas right in our backyard. I've done many a crawl there over the years, and there's no place that can work up an appetite faster. Sure, you could go into one of the many tourist traps or chain restaurants in the area - but why do that when an iconic pub serving the best chili in Atlantic City is within walking distance? Ducktown Tavern & Liquors is a craft brewery with a lot of space for hungry diners and drinkers to indulge, and the menu is perfect for anyone who needs some classic NJ comfort food after a long night out. There are many ways to have a great meal here, but most of them involve that delicious house-made chili - smoky, spicy, and perfectly flavored. It's perfect on its own - or with another iconic partner!

It's hard to miss the eye-catching sign at Ducktown Tavern, and there's a reason this place is a true local favorite.

A casual bar-and-grill, it's usually packed with people looking for a reasonably priced place to fill them up away from the major casinos.

Naturally, there is a full beer menu on tap - and a great menu of food to wash it all down with!

The menu here specializes in hearty pub grub, with the cheesesteaks, burgers, and wings all getting high marks.

However, it's the chili that keeps many people coming back time and time again - and a great meal here usually includes a bowl or two.

If you're not in the mood for soup, have your chili atop a chili dog - one of the best examples of this iconic diner treat in all of New Jersey.

The menu at Ducktown Tavern leans towards intense flavors, and even when you're not eating the chili, you'll find many ways to keep that delicious kick going all meal long.
