What we’re about
We are back. Now that covid restrictions are winding down, we have returned to the Meetup community. We want to enjoy life and each other's company.
There will be a $1 Meetup fee for each event, unless otherwise noted on the event.
Getting together with friends, old and new, for dining and other activities that interest us. Some activities might be movies, miniature golf, wine tastings, breakfasts, brunches, lunches, dinners, day bus trips or whatever we decide.
Welcoming 50 - 95 age group, single or married, ladies or gentlemen.
Centered around Freehold, NJ but will generally meet between Old Bridge and Lakewood on the Rt. 9 corridor, branching out east and west a few miles each way.
Prefer warm, fun, happy, people-loving-people. Let's be a family of friends. Be honest and be nice. Respect and enjoy our time together and it will be a good idea to avoid hot topics such as politics, race or religion.
KEEP YOUR RSVP'S CURRENT. NO SHOWS WILL NOT BE INVITED BACK.

See all- RUBY TUESDAY in SomersetRuby Tuesdays, Somerset, NJ
$2.00 Meetup fee payable to host at event.
I so miss Ruby Tuesdays that i am willing to drive almost an hour to one of the only ones I believe is still open in NJ. It may not be that far for you though if you live north of Howell. I hope someone or several some ones will join me. We went a couple of times last year, and it was as great as I remembered, so since we are back on daylight savings time, I am putting it up again.
NOTE: If you download the Ruby Rewards app on your phone you may get limited time specials. Cool. Not sure if more than one allowed per table or not and I intend to use mine, but just saying.On Wednesdays their all you can eat salad bar is only $7.99 and it's enough for a full meal as I remember it. Or, of course, add an entree to that.
Any takers?#### WEDNESDAY LUNCH
AVAILABLE UNTIL 4PM
$7.99 Endless Garden Bar Entree
Enjoy endless combinations at our Garden Bar with over 50 ingredients.
Make as many visits as you want and don’t forget our famous pumpernickel croutons.
Add a Loaded Baked Potato, Soup of the Day, or Broccoli & Cheddar Soup for $2 more!Here is their takeout menu with prices, as the eat in menu has no prices so it may be slightly less inside the restaurant.
Ruby Tuesday - Somerset - Order OnlineI found this for a 15% AARP discount, I think you have to ask for it on the same day as you are going and it doesn't apply to specials like the Wednesday special.

"Things Change. Traditions Last.
## A history sweeter than pie.
Founded in 1958 as a single pancake house in Ohio, Perkins has transformed into the nation's leading family restaurant. And when we say that, we aren’t joking. With nearly 300 company-owned and franchised locations in 32 states and two Canadian provinces, we’re pretty proud of how far we’ve come.
Through the years, Perkins has remained true to its mission of providing guests with friendly service and classic comfort dishes at a great price. Sure, Perkins started with dozens of pancake and waffle options, but soon enough we grew to offer American staples like breakfast all day, hearty steak plates, juicy burgers, and a wide selection of handcrafted handhelds, soups, and salads. The most iconic piece of Perkins Bakery is, you guessed it, our pie.
Our in-store bakery offers a wide selection of fruit pies, cream pies, dreamy pies, along with scrumptious cookies, and our signature Mammoth Muffins®. Our goal has always been to leave guests feeling satisfied, which means we’re always updating our menu with fresh, flavorful, and innovative items that take their place right next to our classic, beloved menu items. Some of our most iconic dishes have been on the menu for more than 30 years. Pretty sweet, huh?
At Perkins, we take great pride in our service, experience, and feeding folks what they like. It’s the cornerstone of our company, and the thing that keeps us going after all these years." -
