The way there

Route 9 north, Route 33 west

A few busy miles of shopping-center road to get across to Route 9, and then a much calmer run once Freehold is behind you.

If your mail says Englishtown, you probably live in Manalapan. The borough is small and the township wraps around most of it, which is why the two names get used interchangeably by everyone except the two sets of officials who have to keep them apart.

The township itself is big and sprawls between several main roads rather than gathering around one. Monmouth Battlefield State Park takes up a wide green piece of the eastern side, Old Tennent Church has been standing since long before any of the subdivisions, and Route 9 runs through the commercial half of it collecting traffic all day. Getting to us means crossing to Route 9 on whichever road is nearest you, then heading south through Freehold.

At this end there is one NovoTHOR bed in one room, taken by one person at a time and booked in advance. The session is short, whole-body rather than aimed at any single spot, and there is nothing afterwards that stops you driving straight home.

Neighborhoods and areas within Manalapan

Tennent

Old Tennent Church has stood on this ground since 1751 and was used as a hospital for wounded soldiers after the Battle of Monmouth in 1778. The congregation dates to 1692, the adjoining cemetery to 1731, and part of Monmouth Battlefield State Park runs through the area.

Millhurst

Millhurst grew up where Route 33 and County Route 527 cross Manalapan Brook. Seven mills once worked in the township and the grist mill building here is the only one still standing, having housed a family building-supply business since 1925.

Gordons Corner

Gordons Corner takes its name from Gordons Corner Road, which runs out to U.S. Route 9. Gordons Corner Plaza sits on the road near that end, among the shopping centers that line the highway through the township.

Yorketown

Yorketown is the only census-designated place in Manalapan Township, with a population of 6,617 at the 2020 census. Manalapan Township Fire Company No. 2, still known as the Gordons Corner company, is based here.

Questions from Manalapan

My address says Englishtown — is this the right page?

Almost certainly. Most Englishtown mailing addresses sit in Manalapan Township rather than the borough itself, and the drive is identical either way: across to Route 9, then south.

I am out on the west side past the Battlefield — which road?

Route 33 east to Route 9 is the straightforward one. Route 522 through Englishtown also gets you there and some people prefer it for avoiding the Route 9 and Route 33 interchange.

Is the whole drive on Route 9?

Only the second half of it. The Manalapan part is getting yourself across to Route 9 in the first place; after that it is one road through Freehold and into Howell with no turns to remember.

Are you open late enough for me to come after work?

Tuesdays and Thursdays we run until six, which is the realistic option, though Route 9 at that hour is not fun. If your schedule is fixed, call us — we book outside the posted hours fairly often.
