50 Best Bar & Grill near Bloomfield

“Great place to hang out with friends, food was ok , I ordered grill chicken and I needed to be more cooked inside , other than that everything was great , I would order something else next time but music and drinks was great , fun ambience would def recommend“

“I used to go to this spot on Bloomfield Ave a few years back, but one of the owners (Tommy, i seem to remember) would get a little too animated and become obnoxious towards the customers.

I figured I'd give it another chance and drop by to check it out. It was much more chill. The food was standard bar food, and the beers were relatively inexpensive. The girls behind the bar were cute and attentive. They have a DJ on the weekends, and he plays the classics from back in the day.

Overall, it was a much better experience for me, at least.“

“Ordered The Steak with Beans and Rice on Valentine's Day for me and my wife, and OMG. Not what I was expecting. Boy was I fooled. Very Delicious, and flavorful, as well as the presentation (was Excellent). Now I can lock this in as one of my go to restaurants.“

“I have been going to Sonoma almost weekly for over a year now. It started off with taco Thursdays and their delicious margarita specials and has now turned into exploring every menu item possible. I am consistently impressed with the quality and taste of the food. Incredibly delicious every single time. I am gluten intolerant which can pose challenges. The kitchen and staff have been amazing In accommodating my food allergy. I highly recommend Sonoma on any day of the week. It very quickly became my favorite go-to restaurants.“

“Legendary place to be seen and a party spot for generations“

“Excellent ambiance, amazing drinks, and the best customer service !“

“Today we had the pleasure of dining at Blue 42 Restaurant and Bar, located at 158 Market St, Elmwood Park, NJ, and I must say it was a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The security staff were particularly friendly and helpful, ensuring we felt comfortable and safe throughout our visit.
While our order did take a little longer to arrive than expected, it was truly worth the wait. Each dish we ordered was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It’s clear that the chefs at Blue 42 take pride in their culinary creations.
We ended up spending a total of $78, including tips, and I felt that the quality of the food and the overall dining experience justified every penny. The combination of great service and delicious meals makes Blue 42 a restaurant I would happily recommend to others.
If you're in the area and looking for a place to enjoy a meal, I highly encourage you to check out Blue 42. You won’t be disappointed!“

“I had the pleasure of being a wedding photographer at this venue a few weeks ago, and it was truly incredible. The venue features a rustic, organic field enhanced with modern touches that are simply stunning. The event hall is fantastic, and the natural sunlight pouring in is a great advantage for any occasion! I really appreciated the natural colors and how they complemented the country decor. I also got to sample some food, and the cornbread was phenomenal, while the cream and cookies left me wanting more. I highly recommend booking this place—10/10!“

“It reminded me of the pubs in London as soon as I walked in. You should definitely try the recession menu. There is a pool table in the back. The bartender was a friendly and chatty person. The music list was very enjoyable. A pub you should definitely visit.“

“I met a couple of my old coworkers there December 20th after 4 years. I wanted to go to a highly rated family-run place and this establishment didn't disappoint. The burgers, meatloaf and pita wraps were excellent. The owner Vinnie greeted us and seated us, then came by to chat with us. The server was attentive and seemed to like her job. About a 15 - 20 minute walk from the Harrison PATH station. I will be making future visits there with old collegues.“

“Great Place People are always friendly“

“just fantastic food and service“

“Shrimp Dino!!! The absolute best!!!“

“Food is pretty good large portions, cozy with a lot of activity going on, reminded me of cheers how friendly it felt. Monday jazz was so good came back for karaoke Tuesday. Red Sangria was my favorite. I will keep coming back. I had a lot of fun. I’m checking their events now. Owner Tommy told me “ I’m family now”“

“Great service! You wouldn’t know they were short staffed.“

“We held a special birthday party for my husband in their private upstairs room and could not have been happier. The whole experience from start to finish was terrific. We had a smaller event and it's a pretty big room, but it felt just right the way the tables were arranged. We got in early enough to set up and everyone from management to the bartender and servers were as nice and accommodating as could be. I cannot say enough good things. If you are looking for a space for an event, look no further!“

“Great little bar near the PATH Station in Harrison. Located in the rear side of the Element Hotel on Somerset Street. Very nice atmosphere, friendly crowd and very friendly service. Reasonably priced drinks and if you like there is some seating outside the bar when the weather cooperates. I found it a nice place to stop and have a drink or two. I’d recommend stopping in when you’re in the area. A nice addition to the newly renovated, and ongoing, Harrison Station area.“

“Give this local place a try if you can. As you can see by reading the reviews the staff is so friendly, and welcoming, they take care of you. It’s not just a bar, there is a casual dining room, plenty of tables. The food is good, VERY GOOD!! I ordered shrimp and veg upon recommendation 👍👍. Others at my table had penne vodka with some great looking grilled chicken, and fish n chips. Bring your family or friends. A full meal thats more affordable than many places.“

“Love the owner and the great food!!!“

“Tankys is the spot! These people in the comments below complaining about it being unsafe just have nothing better to do. Other bars right down the block plays music just as loud and stays open just as late. Besides the one incident last year, there aren’t any brawls or fights that happen there. Most ppl that go there are regulars and know each other. To the ppl complaint about it being loud in open late, you have the power to move to another place you knew where you were moving to when you moved there tankys has been there my whole lifeThe drinks are strong and cheap, the vibe is chill, older crowd, when they have a DJ the music is good, u can bring food in, and they have a lil pool table and a parking lot. I been going to tankys for year and never had a bad experience. Occasionally the bartenders be too busy to get to me and I’ll get tired of waiting and leave but that’s all rare.“

“Great food Friendly good entertainment Children friendly Family owned“

“food is decent
service a bit slow bc the bartender is busy at the bar so tables in dining room fall to a lower priority. makes sense though because they're not that busy.

it doesn't have the dive bar vibe it had before...“

“Good food and very friendly“

“Such a great venue with amazing food.“

“Decades ago, I ate at this location weekly when it was "Eddie's Long Bar". I visited Pour Abbey's a few times. The inside has been COMPLETELY changed for the better. The food is very good and the service excellent. I am not in the area often but will stop here when possible. Well Done!“

“First time for me and my boyfriend, went to celebrate his birthday and no regrets at all. One of the best meals, everything was perfect and tasty, Maiara our server was very sweet and helpful. Definitely going back.“

“Un excelente lugar y buena atención“

“Good Food. Beer too! Yum yum yum yum yum yum“

“Great home town bar. Good food. Good people.“

“First timer. Came on a Tuesday and it was fun to see the mini car show they had going on (every Tuesday?) easy-going atmosphere with very friendly staff. Apologized for any waits/delays. Beer selection is good but you'll need the beer menus qr code (at the bar, or just search it) to get the full list. Overall a nice experience. Only complaint would be that our burgers were overcooked. Ordered Medium, got Well. Still delicious. Will definitely come back!“

“Karaoke every wednesday night is FIRE!“

“Great vibe!! You will feel right at home!! It is a family owned and worked business so they take very good care of the place and it’s customers!! The food is really good!! The chicken franchise is my favorite… and so good!! Taco Tuesday also has BINGO! Good food and good vibes!!!?“

“Stopped by for a light lunch on Thur around 12:30 pm. American Dream website is showing free validated parking when dining during weekdays 12-2 pm at listed restaurants, but when we asked, the server had to get a manager to validate it. David, the manager was being very nice about it. The restaurant’s website shows they have option for an Express Lunch menu, which has limited selection of items but of a better value than the all day menu. The maitre’d didn’t include the lunch menu until we requested it. Food came quick and everything was delicious. The corn bread came with sprinkles of wht looked like sea salt, and the honeyed butter & berries jam that accompanied the corn bread were soooo delish! Brussel sprouts were roasted to a crispy perfection, and drizzle of hot honey and pickled onions on it were just awesome. Truffle fries was fried perfectly crisp and hot, always a comfort munch. We chose brown sugar sauce for the wings, again the wings were fried to a perfect crisp. Some people might prefer their wings juicier like how they do in many other wing places, but i prefer my wings crispy, so this was very much to my liking. We ended up dipping the fries in the wing sauce coz it’s that good! Sweet with a mild tang and kick.. just yummy! The house made blue cheese dip was so thick and decadent, i could eat it with a spoon. Overall for the lunch menu, i’d say it’s a very good value. Might come back to try their entrees next time. Ambiance is fine, brightly lit and server is attentive. He asked if we’d like some water in addition to our drink order and left an entire bottle of ice cold water for our table, which I really appreciate. Wobbly table is a thing though, i read about it on the other reviews and our table was wobbly too, although the server said the previous table we were seated at had an even wobblier table, and ours wasnt as bad. I find it hillarious that they knew abt the wobbly tables and it’s still not fixed? Can’t even squeeze something underneath the table feet to stop the wobble? ? It’s certainly not a deal breaker issue. All Nighter mocktail was refreshing. Good experience all around.

Parking: Parking lot A would be closest to where the restaurant is. Check the mall website for any free parking promotion that have restaurants or businesses validate your parking ticket.

Kid-friendliness: They do have kids menu option.“

“I love this place. Great prices and you wouldn’t think so but the food is always delicious. I recommend anything on the special menu. The cook brings it out himself and clearly cares about your experience. I’ll always come back and recommend here.“

“Great place and great people.“

“Buena comida , buen ambiente, excelente atención, calidad“

“Some of the best food I've ever had at an inexpensive price, can't beat it.“

“Food is always good to excellent. Good hard working regulars always say hello; many have become good friends. The Portuguese " Cheers" kind of sums it up. Karokee on a Friday or Saturday brings a mix of music from people who just love to sing and to be around good people.“

“The drinks and breakfast was delicious!❤❤❤“

“Box car has to be one of the coolest and best kept secrets. It is legit inside the Short Hills train station. Transformer meets cuisine. I’m embarrassed to say that I’ve lived in the area for a couple of decades and have never had the pleasure of stopping in before. Well, today everything changed. From the time we walked in until the time we walked out everyone on the team here was extremely welcoming and spot on professional. We had the distinct pleasure of having Carlos take care of us tonight. He is the consummate professional, and went completely out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. He recommended amazing menu options. The cocktails and entrée were expertly prepared, truly delicious and made with the absolute finest ingredients. Treat yourself and your family to a great experience and go to boxcar today! God Bless America! God Bless Blue & Gold! Remember Everyone Deployed Everyday!“

“Great place to go for a night out! The food is delicious! The atmosphere is fun and welcoming! The bands are great! The owners are great people! Would definitely recommend to anyone! We will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“From the moment you walk in - the warm welcome from the awesome staff to the very chic decor and once the food came - The salmon was The Best Salmon - cooked to perfection accompanied by a salad. A fun night and don’t miss the entertainment #funfunfun @lindaslist“

“Great music, great vibe, great people! Visited while in New Jersey for my birthday weekend. Ronnie, the lady tending the bar welcomed us like we were regulars. There was no drama of any kind, just people having a good time on a Friday night!
The kitchen was closed but we ordered food through DoorDash…
Will definitely visit again if I'm in the area!“

“I went to this place in a clutch. Wanted some food and a drink after a late show at NJPAC in Newark after midnight. It is bar food; jalapeño poppers, wings, burger, etc but very good. The bartender was courteous and despite it appeared most patrons were usuals, we were treated well being it was a first time for us there.“

“(Translated by Google) It was a Friday May 19, 2022.. it was 4:45 in the afternoon they are still not open for businessBut by chance of life I had met someone there in that Reataurant and I went to leave an order of food.. one of the cooks came out for me, she was the chef. She greeted me very respectfully. I asked her to please deliver that order and she did it with the best possible gesture and I asked him if he had something ready to go, he told me to order whatever I wanted and so I did. I ordered popusas, by the way, very delicious while I waited for the order to go and the bartender arrivedWe talked for a few words and I was watching television and he asked me if I wanted something to drink, to which I replied that I had no money, he looked me in the eye and told meNo problem, I invite you what you want to drink. .. the truth is that i never thought i would find a place all that touched my heart and i can guarantee you that it is a place full of peace and harmony my best wishes to all those who make Rodeo bar in orange excellent people.
