The famous Count Basie Theatre was founded in 1926. It is named for the musician of the same name. It hosts plays, political commentators, and has hosted arena-scale concerts by world-famous musical acts. It attracts crowds primarily from the bohemian-like town of Red Bank and its neighboring communities, referred to as the New Jersey tri-cities (Long Branch, Red Bank and Asbury Park), as well as from nearby New York City. The theatre is known for first class entertainment in an intimate setting, and is divided into four sections: the large orchestra, the small lodge, the large balcony, and the smaller upper balcony.

[edit][add listing] Eat

Red Bank has a lot of choice in restaurants.

When in town I never skip the Siam Garden Thai restaurant. Good sate and original curries, but a little pricey.

Danny's Stakehouse across the street is also a good place for lonely business travelers. Good shushi served at the bar. Good wines and coctails to complete the picture.

[edit] Coffee

There is a Starbucks on the corner of Broad Street and White Street. On the opposite side of Broad Street and a little further down is No Ordinary Joe's cafe. Its menu is smaller than Starbucks, but is an independent place. This is a good place for those sick of the taste of or disillusioned with Starbucks. Also serving good java is Zebu, on Broad Street. For more about Zebu, see the "Eat" section of this page.

Friendly staff welcomes you at the Oysterpoint. Try to get a room overlooking the the Naversink River for a beatifull sunrise in the morning which makes your day. In case you'r in a hurry skip breakfast (but don't forget the take away complimentary coffee and cakes).

Molly Pitcher Inn has beatifull English style entree and rooms. Watch out when a 'small' room is offered though.

The Courtyard Marriot is just like any other. Located near the Parkway but not in a walking distance to the city center.
