The Revelation Agency is an Arts and Entertainment Event planning Service based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They book all ages shows in both Philadelphia and New Jersey. Some of their venues they work with are The Watering Hole, The Barbary, Boneyard Bar & Grill, and Grace Church Haddonfield. This show will be held at The Watering Hole.
The Watering Hole is a Mom and Pop bar and restaurant located in Mays Landing, NJ. They serve multi-cuisine lunch, dinner, and drinks.
“Welcome to the Watering Hole Café, a South Jersey icon with a colorful history. It is a fantastic place with an unpretentious attitude, great food and great music, where all are welcome. Set on 12 acres of NJ Pinelands with an outstanding outside appeal, the Watering Hole Café is the latest name of this legendary establishment.
Early in The I900s, it was said to be a stagecoach stop. People would come, pick up some supplies, eat some food and quench their thirst. During prohibition, runners from Philadelphia would stop here on their way to Atlantic City (and maybe have a beer or two).
Dating back to the mid 50’s, Doaks was its name, with turkey shoots on the weekends, a truck horn on the roof to blow when cars drove by and entertaining clothes hanging from the ceiling. Afterwards, it became the Country Pine Inn, which for the most part was a family restaurant serving hearty meals. Next, it was Uncle Mike’s in the early nineties, which was a fabulous destination for motorcyclists because of the scenic stretch of road leading here.
So after a hundred years ,we’re not much different from the Weymouth Furnace (located just north of us) having aged while remaining the same. We are a local standby as well as home to a stranger, new comer or tourist, where all walks of life are always welcome warmly.
We hope you enjoy the music, your meal, a drink, your day, a game or anything else while visiting us and hope you will return real soon.
In ending, if you know of any history, weddings, memorabilia, that we should know about our establishment please share it with us, and we’ll be sure to hang it or post it for all to see.”
