Five Points Inn

Vineland’s Authentic Italian Institution

If you’re seeking a taste of authentic old-school South Jersey history mixed with genuinely spectacular Italian-American cuisine and a cozy full-service bar, look no further than DeThomasi’s Five Points Inn. A true Vineland landmark, the history of Five Points Inn began in 1978 when brothers Bruno and Carlo DeThomasi opened it up as a simple neighborhood bar known for serving the best cheesesteaks in town. Decades later, it has evolved into a beloved, legendary family-run restaurant and catering hall, maintaining its commitment to tradition and quality.

Walking through the doors feels like coming home. The heart of this venue lies in its kitchen, where simple, authentic Italian dishes are made to order, drawing inspiration from the traditional flavors of the Abruzzi, Italy region. A must-try feature is their renowned handmade pasta—from the golden ravioli to the delicate gnocchi—which are made in small, fresh batches daily. Beyond the pasta, the menu is a feast of Italian-American classics, including rich appetizers like Stuffed Long Hots, Authentic Abruzzese Antipasti, and popular signature pizzas like “The Lockdown.”

The bar at Five Points Inn is the perfect spot to start or end your meal. It’s a classic, friendly watering hole offering a full range of spirits, Ice Cold Beer, refreshing Chianti Wine, and expertly Shaken Cocktails. Reviews consistently praise the attentive, family-like service, ensuring you have a relaxing experience whether you’re unwinding right after work or enjoying some late-night eats. This is more than just a restaurant; it’s a decades-old Vineland tradition with an outstanding bar program.
