Top 5 Bars in New Jersey

149 Brighton Ave, Long Branch, NJ 07740, United States

“Jack’s is a neighborhood sports bar. The staff is friendly and nice. It’s got a fun and casual atmosphere. The wings are great, the nachos are tasty and the beer is cold. They have been around for years but needs a little freshening up to stay current. Regulars love it.”

193 Newark Ave, Jersey City, NJ 07302, United States

“Pet Shop is a unique little bar located in Jersey City, NJ & it’s a great spot for gatherings!! I recently popped-in with a group of friends for a drink and I had a lovely experience. The bartenders are so nice and the atmosphere inside this place is so cool!! I tried a Lucky Shot and it was well-made + presented nicely. The food is AMAZING! Try the Tator Tot Tacos & the Cauliflower “Wings” with buffalo. I will definitely return here if I’m back in JC - I love this place!”

199 Westwood Ave, Long Branch, NJ 07740, United States

“My girlfriend and I went back in March. Fantastic experience. The staff (both the bartender and manager) were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable. They made us feel as if they wanted us there AND wanted us to come back. Very cool industrial kind of vibe in the building. They do live music and private events. But the main thing is the cocktails. The alcohol is fermented there and the cocktails are crafted in house. Top quality stuff here. Inventive and thoughtful cocktails. They were really awesome. It’s worth it to come here for a few cocktails. Don’t miss this joint!”

328 Palisade Ave, Jersey City, NJ 07307, United States

“Love this place. You can’t miss with the detroit style pizza. The motor city is my jam and you can’t go wrong with the plain either. They even have one with pineapple on it that surprisingly works! The bourbon mint tea was my drink of choice and had a few of them. The backyard also is a nice touch where you can sit and enjoy the nice weather. Highly recommend.”

425 Beaverbrook Rd, Lincoln Park, NJ 07035, United States

“Located right next to the airport, this hidden gem offers not only fantastic food but also a breathtaking view. I am a fan of outdoor dining, and the scenic backdrop of planes taking off and landing added an extra touch of excitement. To start our meal, we got buffalo wings. The Parma pizza I had was great, complemented by the refreshing taste of Steer Wars, the beer on tap from Bolero Snort Brewery. My partner also thoroughly enjoyed her custom-built burger. The attentive staff and inviting ambiance made the experience even more enjoyable. This wasn’t my first visit, and it certainly won’t be my last. Sunset Pub & Grill has earned its place as my go-to spot for a perfect blend of great food, a great view, and an impressive selection of beverages.”

1121 NJ-12, Frenchtown, NJ 08825, United States

”They had a good selection of generic beers and decent pre designed mixed drinks to choose from. The staff was really nice! The food was definitely American bar food but it wasn't bad, I would go again for a nice evening. The music wasn't too loud to enjoy a conversation. I was not there during a band night.”

601 Main St, Loch Arbour, NJ 07711, United States

”I played a gig here the other night with The West End Dogs. Friends came and ate dinner. They said the food was excellent, and from what i saw the dishes looked amazing! This used to be the old Mcgilicuddies, they renovated and made the place look urban chic in Loch Arbour! Go grab a meal or just sit at the huge bar and enjoy some music”

”Ramsey Golf & Country Club stole our hearts from the moment we arrived! Michael radiated kindness and expertise. His genuine passion for what he does was evident, making us feel like family from day one. As a bride without a planner, Michael was a superhero, his invaluable assistance made the planning process seamless. Quick responses and unwavering support turned potential stress into pure excitement. Ramsey G&CC didn’t just steal our hearts; it left a lasting impression on our guests. With a gorgeous location and a cocktail hour that left our guests talking about it a month later, to the dinner impeccably executed and delicious. Despite weddings the day before and after ours, Michael and the team made us the focal point. From start to finish, they created a day that felt uniquely ours and so special from start to finish. We can’t thank them enough. Ramsey Golf & Country Club is the perfect venue where expertise and passion converge to create unforgettable memories. Thank you, Michael, and the entire team, for giving us the perfect day!”

I got the $3 mimosas, and it was very good. For my meal, I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. When the sandwich came out, it looked good! I dug in, and it was tasty! The bill was affordable, and I enjoyed my time!”
