Barnegat Landmark Restaurant Catches Fire.
A day after on of the worst billards to hit Ocean county, a fire ripped through Sweet Jenny's Peppermint Park on Monday evening, erupting just minutes after the Route 9 restaurant had closed and keeping firefighters from seven departments busy for more than two hours.
According to the AC Press, the fire was reported at 5:26 p.m. and the building was "fully engulfed" by 6:01 p.m, Barnegat Township Police Lt. Patrick Shaffery said.
No one was inside the business, which closed its doors at 5 p.m., Shaffery said.
Sweet Jenny's is a popular restaurant and ice cream "bar" and was housed in a cozy log cabin style building on route 9 in Barnegat. There is a 2nd Sweet Jenny's in Ship Bottom on Long Beach Island.
