''Babette's'' or ''Babette's Supper Club'' was a supper club and bar at 2211 Pacific Avenue on the Boardwalk of Atlantic City, New Jersey, United States. It operated from the early 1920s onwards and was sold in 1950. The bar was designed like a ship's hull. In the backroom was a gambling den, which was investigated by the federal authorities and raided in 1943. History The club, situated on Pacific Avenue, opposite the Atlantic City Convention Hall, operated from the early 1920s through to the 1940s. Originally called the ''Golden Inn'', it was renamed by owner Dan Stebbins to Babette's after he married showgirl Blanche Babbitt, who used the stage name Babette.
