Czech beer culture, right here in Jersey City? What more could you really ask for. LUKR taps, surprisingly good food, and just about the perfect set up for any kind of sporting event.

It really does have you feeling like you have been transported into anouther country when you walk through the doors.

Can't wait to be back.

This bar has all the ingredients to be decent, but it’s completely ruined by the people running it.

The management is shockingly bad. The manager in particular has the emotional maturity of a toddler and the professionalism of someone who shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the public. He is rude, dismissive, and actively hostile to customers.

It’s almost impressive how quickly he can turn a normal night out into something uncomfortable and unpleasant. Instead of making guests feel welcome, he creates an atmosphere where everyone feels like they’re doing something wrong just by being there. Talking down to patrons, snapping at people, and acting like he’s on some weird power trip seems to be his default setting.

The drinks are fine. The space is fine. The vibe could be fine — but none of that matters when the person in charge clearly despises the very customers keeping the place alive. A bar lives and dies by hospitality, and this one is dying fast.

Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere you’re actually wanted.

Great environment to watch sports, but the food was mediocre. I got the breakfast burrito during their weekend brunch, and it was not very good. Staff was super kind, though!

The food wasn’t really great but the atmosphere created by the team was great. I was in the back room and am begging that the door is closed over the winter as everyone sometimes steps in the entire room becomes absolutely frigid.

Went to a private birthday party there. Bouncer in the room was rude, basically threw wristbands at us and wouldn't help put them on.

Bartender in our room was on his phone in the corner the entire time and had to flag him down to get a drink.

Noah is such a good server! It was my bf and I’s first time in the bar for a UFC event. Vibes are great and the age range is mainly 21-35 year olds. Great time and we will be coming back!

I had generally found Hudson Hall to be a good place for a casual Saturday afternoon, with a solid beer selection, big screens for sports, and a fun, energetic atmosphere but not too chaotic. It had been a while since my last visit and I did not recall what my previous opinion had been about the food.

My wife and I brought our two young children this past weekend. The beer options remain strong, but the food was a significant disappointment and the primary reason we will not return soon.

We ordered wings, fries, and nachos to share, and chicken tenders and hot dogs from the kids menu. The wings were dry and lacked any real flavor, with barely any sauce for the Thai chili option we picked. The fries came out barely warm and were equally bland. The nachos looked poorly assembled with unappealing toppings and dry, unseasoned meat. The hot dogs were a bit crispy and the chicken tenders did not look like traditional ones my kids are used to, and looked battered like they way the fish are sometimes battered in a fish and chips dish. My little guy definitely was not feeling it and I did not want to make him eat it.

The entire meal felt flavorless and underwhelming, leaving us with little interest in eating. The service met our expectations from previous visits, but the subpar food overshadows the other strengths.

This place could work well for those focused on beer and sports viewing, but for families seeking a meal along with the entertainment, I recommend looking elsewhere. With some improvements to the kitchen, it could become a stronger neighborhood option, but for now, the chef has to work on easing up on the flame.

This was my first time here. Didn't know much about it. It wasn't really my crowd. Skewed a bit younger and louder than I would prefer. Didn't really like the picnic table seating either. As they sat my date and I with four other people at the table. You move the bench for one, you move it for everyone. That being said, the sliders were really good. They were freshly made and even had the grill marks on the buns which I like. The service was good, our waiter was friendly. It was pretty full so I'm sure it's a great spot for those who know what it's about.

I absolutely love coming here every Sunday to watch football. I came across this bar a few years ago but really started coming when the Knicks were in the playoffs. The sense of community reminded me of a college sports bar, but professionals. Also the game day wings special seals the deal!

The service here definitely has gone downhill! Was walking by Monday afternoon and stopped by with my wife for a quick snack ordered the pretzel and waited about 20 min. The place was empty me and my wife were the only guests. Server on his phone the whole time didn’t even bother to check or had the sense of checking on a food that usually takes 3-5 min max. Turns out they burned it. Slow days with less crowds is the best time to engage with guests to make regulars. Servers definitely need more training.

The pitcher costs 32 and fills 4 cups. If you buy 4 cups separate it costs 28 😂

Food was alright - not spectacular. For the price, you are really NOT getting a lot of food. Small portions. Same with the drinks. The margarita I got seemed to be all ice and 4 sips of beverage.

The servers are nice and there nice overall ambiance to the place is not too bad either.

Giving it 3 stars because the portions and the micro amounts of drinking they gave me for the price I paid annoys me.
