9 Best Dive Bars near Cranford

“Exactly what you would picture a great bar to be! The old classic rustic place with all the classic bottles and drinks as well as cute seasonal twist. Was there for the postseason baseball game and football games! Great choice of music today!“

“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.“

“Been a long time since I had a beer with the Dillon boys and my Valley friends!“

“Worst bar , bad service drunk bartender called Jerry is very disrespectful“

“I was introduced to this place and I absolutely adore it here! The staff and service is 10/10. It’s a smaller business but they always give it their all. I will say the wings are amazing along with the sauce, thank you :)

**my favorite drink is the Malibu bay breeze**“

“my go-to spot for football or late night drinks with coworkers! watch any sports game you want, food is amazing, the owner is amazing and accomodating, and i'm always happy with the selection of seltzers / beers on tap. i love the live music nights and football sundays - great neighborhood vibe“

“It’s your typical neighborhood kinda divey bar, but much better! It has a long history in Woodbridge, been a staple for many many years. They have great bartenders, drink prices and a super jukebox. It’s also a great place to people watch and meet many of the different people here in Woodbridge if you’re new to the area. Everyone is friendly and the bartenders look out for you if you’ve had too much. They will get you home safely and that’s important to me in a bar setting. Definitely a must for anyone who hasn’t been!!“

“Great atmosphere! The bartenders are wonderful. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. Great bar!“

“Always a good time, and the owner is one of kind, always smiling and a big big ❤️heart o match!!“
