Shore House In Point Boro Helping Whoever Needs It Amid COVID-19
The Shore House has helped people every step of the way amid COVID-19. Here's how.

POINT PLEASANT BORO – Frank Gullace and his family have gone above and beyond trying to keep Point Pleasant residents in their thoughts and prayers, customers say.
They've done this at The Shore House, throughout all of the lockdowns, quarantines and restrictions, said customer Michele Kwiatkowski.
"They have brought us food, drinks – pretty much anything we needed in these crazy days," she said. "And they brought Thanksgiving to any family or individual in need."

Michele was one of several people who nominated The Shore House for Patch's "Business of the Year" in Point Pleasant Boro as many businesses continue to battle through the coronavirus pandemic.
But it was these businesses, the customers say, that also came through for others in need – even as they were struggling themselves.

"As always, throughout the years, this family (who own The Shore House) has been there for all of our community and I'm proud to know them," Kwiatkowski said. "God Bless them."
Debbie and Chuck Venedam wrote to Patch that the owner, Frank, makes it a point to "come over to your table and chat" even as others may be feeling grim as they deal with the coronavirus restrictions.
"And the staff is friendly and very attentive and the food is great," they said. "And they have Bingo on Saturday, which is a lot of fun."
They note that, if you win you get a gift card, "you can use for your bill."
"Wonderful place to socialize inside and out," they said.
