New Jersey Restaurant Will Be A Filming Site For Adam Sandler’s ‘Happy Gilmore 2’

When we last saw Happy Gilmore in the mid-'90s, we thought he might be riding off in the sunset after winning his golf tournament, finding love, and saving Grandma's house. Adam Sandler has said that Gilmore, who is one of his most popular characters, will be back and a New Jersey restaurant will be a site of Happy Gilmore 2 filming.

Sandler and Netflix have had a longstanding and successful relationship the past few years. In fact, last month, Netflix announced the news in a press release. "That’s right, Adam Sandler is returning to the golf green as Happy Gilmore, and he’s bringing his powerful slap shot with him," they said.

In the original Happy Gilmore, we saw Sandler and his co-stars frequently in the company of food, from Subway sandwiches to cereal, to golf clubhouse dinner parties. We don't know exactly what he'll be eating at the New Jersey restaurant. But we do know the place that Happy will be visiting.

This is in West Garfield on Route 46. In fact, Steve's Burgers got to make the announcement themselves. In an Instagram share they wrote, "Honored, Privileged, and Excited to announce that Steve's Burgers on Route 46 has been chosen by @adamsandler and @netflix to shoot a scene for the new and heavily anticipated Happy Gilmore 2 movie coming soon to Netflix!"

While we are shouting out Steve's Burgers in New Jersey, why don't we take a look at their menu. The food items available are quite a mouthful. Elaborate burgers and hot dogs get the bulk of the attention, however cheesesteaks, wraps, and melts are also cooked up here.

The burger selection is where you will find the most creativity. Everything from double cheeseburgers to burgers topped with mozzarella sticks and fried onion rings can be ordered daily. There's also a French toast breakfast burger in addition to special items that often grace the menu. Fries or tater tots are among the most popular side items, as is Steve's "special sauce."

The northeast was a key destination in the first Happy Gilmore. As you may recall, Gilmore was a diehard Boston Bruins fan in the original film. Perhaps his golf scene is keeping him in the region for the sequel. There will certainly be more news as the filming begins. In the meantime, we hope the plans include Sandler having Gilmore enjoy one of these incredible meals at Steve's Burgers.

Happy Gilmore was released 25 years ago today (February 16.) All these years later, the film's plentiful amount of one-liners still hold up and are still often used.
