50 Best Bars near Harrison

“oh yeah! Harrisons newest hot spot“

“We went just before closing time and the service was phenomenal! We have a person with autism and they were so patient; when we asked him how he liked his food his response was “the food is so good I feel like I am in Italy.” Thank you for a memorable evening.“

“If you’re looking for a hidden gem - no frills, I repeat, no frills type of place - Woods is your spot.Full disclosure: Nivea (the bartender) is my mom and has bartended alongside Tony and his wife (the owners) for more than 20 years. My mom loves the place so much, you can find her there on her off days. Tony is the man! One of a kind.The place is special - a perfect, dive bar with Portuguêse flair. Make sure you bring cash for the jukebox and pool table, and order an espresso with Sambuca.“

“A great place to go to and have a good time and a cold beer“

“Low key... good beer... close to home... pool table... TV's... its on the $$$...“

“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.“

“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.“

“A beautiful experience on the water“

“You have to try the Korean Fried Broccoli OMG! I’m a stickler for steak so I usually have the Steak and fried egg. If you like it rare like me just ask for it black n blue.“

“The best Wiener Schnitzel outside Austria!!!!👍“

“I went for dinner and decided to try the Wednesday special menu, and it was a total hit! Everything was fresh, perfectly cooked, and had that classic touch everyone loves. Very worth it for the price. We were taken care of by Tony, who provided us with truly special service from the very beginning“

“Great time with my family for lunch, great food and great atmosphere but our waitress Abby gets the 5 Stars for service (Awesome Abby 🤩)“

“This is truly the best smoothie place in Jersey City! The fruit is so fresh, there are so many different options to choose from, and the atmosphere is really nice. I also didn’t have to wait long at all for my smoothie, which was a huge plus. Everything was great, and I’ll definitely be back! This is easily one of the best smoothie spots around.“

Bre and Stephanie took great care of my party… food was good and came out on time, dj/music was excellent and the service from the bartenders/servers was top tier. Will be returning. Thank you so much“

“Rahway High School Class of 2000 had our 25th reunion here. Everything was amazing. The atmosphere, the bartenders, the bouncers, the bar, great music, great food, just all around a great place to have an event like this. Can’t wait to go back. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Awesome venue with great service and live music. Definitely check it out“

“Went today for my first time. Kimberly was my server and she was amazing. Can’t wait to go back. The food and service was great!“

“Joy was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, she was so warm, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel taken care of. Her energy and hospitality really stood out and added so much to our experience at Living Room Bar. It’s rare to come across someone who makes such a great impression just by being genuinely kind and attentive. Thank you, Joy, for making our night even better! We’ll definitely be back. ❤“

“I'm not usually one to dish out five star reviews like candy, but I'm beyond thoroughly impressed. It was genuinely the best food I've ever tasted. I didn't know that was a thing I would say. I sound... Extremely pretentious right now, but it's a luxurious and excellent place to eat that takes you surprisingly few dollars. (My dad got the Arroz con Pollo de la Charrera, and I got the «El Poquito de Todo», we both got deserts, and we didn't crack 50 bucks.)

Our server Cristian was excellent, he was very attentive and not afraid to talk to us!

We're certainly not from the area. Me and my father are going on a roadtrip from Tennessee (we drove up to NYC in 1.5 days!!) to Vermont, to use every single day of my Fall Break. So, considering that, it's unfair for me to recommend it over other places here. I'll get around that by recommending it over every place this side of the Mississippi!

Seriously. You aren't gonna regret eating here. The mains are amazing, extremely flavorful and well-seasoned without being overly strong. The plantains, especially, are literally good enough to make you cry. The pastel de tres leches is also nothing short of phenomenal. I'm not a drinker, but they had a very extensive collection of high-branded wines and a lovely looking bar.

Any dish you try here will change your life. Go on! Try it!“

“I’ve been there quite a few times but most memorable were the Freestyle performers and DJ Juan. Good food but the entertainment/DJ are great! I have a wonderful time every time.“

“Great food and drinks! Very pretty inside.“

“Good Food, great prices, nice atmosphere. and the waitresses all friendly and spoke Polish and English. 👏. Will definitely go back.“

“Beautiful ambiance, decor, and music — genuinely loved the atmosphere and wanted to love this place overall. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were incredibly disappointing. I tried a cocktail, the potato croquettes, a cheese board, and even the prosecco, and everything tasted off or low quality. It’s rare for me to leave a negative review, but the experience just didn’t match the vibe or pricing at all. Huge potential, but the food menu needs really need improvement. Only 4 stars because I grew up in Jersey city and support new restaurants; but for the love of god please update the food menu!!!!!!!!!“

“people good times new comers old timers neighborhood is so special“

“I went for the very first time for New Jersey Deathfest and found it to be the ideal venue for hard-core and metal. The sound is actually top notch and the staff is very friendly. The gritty decor and atmosphere is very reminiscent of a lot of the noteworthy DIY venues I used to go to in NYC during the 90's for metal and hardcore shows which made it all the more nostalgic for me. I would definitely return here for another show in the future.“

“Good neighborhood bar with good service and free food at times. Best deal in town.“

“Love The Notch! Can’t wait to see what great bands will be playing there this year and the new friends I’m bound to make! The Notch Family keeps growing! If you haven’t been there yet…… get to it! ❤️🎶🍻“

“I had a private event in the Parlor Room and it was fabulous. Food and drinks were spot on and the service was dynamite. There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“This was our first time eating at Tartinery. There are several items to choose from on the menu. I ordered the Roast Beef Tartine and a chocolate chip cookie. Both were absolutely delicious. The concrete countertops around the restaurant were a nice touch. The staff was incredibly friendly while also providing fast service. We will absolutely visit again when we are in New York.“

“apps were good, service was even better. live atmosphere on a Friday evening to boot.“

“Been going for 30 years since the Ridgefield Park days. Food never disappoints.“

“it was perfect my fiance took me the food was great the atmosphere was perfect the staff was great“

“The Well is our go-to spot. Best burgers and wings in Bayonne..ALL their food and staff are fantastic.“

“I was recently in New Jersey for a concert and staying at a hotel for a few nights. My friend and I were looking for a quick bite to eat nearby. We decided to go to this place on a whim and it turned out to be one of the best decisions ever. The atmosphere was incredible. Everyone in there was so cool and the bartender was fantastic and very helpful. She recommended the Jack Daniels burger so we both went with it. When I tell you we both dreamed about this burger for our entire trip. We ended up going back to this place two more times. It was such a great local place with great people. I can’t recommend it enough. If you’re ever in the area go there and get the Jack Daniels burger. Talk to the locals. Have a pint and enjoy the vibes. 5/5. 10/10. Incredible.“

“Best dive bar and best burgers“

“Great bar! Dropped by around 345pm Sunday feeling like I walked across the desert (JC to Hoboken). Lively but you don’t need to shout 😮 they had so many selections - it felt like I was back in my 20s in lower Manhattan. Shout out for the Peach Mango and the Blueberry Cobbler! I would have gone for a third but technically this was hydrating on my healthy weekend walk…

Service is lovely - cozy sports bar. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and so were the other patrons.

The fans were strong *** cooled down within minutes after my hour long walk.

10/10 recommend but have a number in mind or you can easily get drunk trying out all their flavors!“

“We went there for a union get together. It was nice.“

“The tables are excellent, and the staff are wonderful. I really enjoy the happy hour deals, they’re a highlight. The menu has changed. I tried the wings, unfortunately, they were bit of salty and not as crisp as I’d hoped. Still, for the overall experience, great spot for some games and some good company.“

“Fast delicious service first time not last“

“Nice place, friendly staff and friendly customers“

“Leanne, is an exceptional server and always brings a big smile to the table, great Food, and atmosphere. Fun and friendly place.“

“I was in a tight spot when my car's key got stuck in the ignition. Thankfully, the 24-hour emergency locksmith service from this professional locksmith saved the day. Their expert car locksmith arrived promptly and skillfully resolved the issue. I'm highly impressed with their quick response and top-notch locksmith repair services.“
