Excellent thin and crispy “bar pie” pizza. Definitely gives old-school NJ bar pie vibes. Weekly specials are solid too. Parking can fill up but there’s other parking on streets nearby.

Been to Chrone’s several times over the years and whether it’s a bustling NFL Sunday or a slow weekday lunch, it’s always a good spot for a beer and some excellent pizza.
Beers are served fast and the TVs are always tuned to live sports which is not always the norm these days.
It’s a no frills spot and not somewhere you’re going for a boujee atmosphere, but it’s somewhere I’ve enjoyed every time.

What a gem. The Chicken Francese with Ceasar Salad was amazing. Friendly and quick service. Delicious! So freshly made. Even the house made croutons had a delicate crunch and were perfectly seasoned. I will definitely be back.

If you’re looking for a place that feels like home but with the added bonus of fantastic food and a great sports bar vibe, Chrone’s is the spot to be. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re welcomed by an atmosphere that’s inviting.
The restaurant strikes the perfect balance between a cozy pub and a lively sports bar, making it ideal whether you’re just looking for a nice dinner or want to catch the big game with friends. The ambiance is effortlessly laid-back, but there’s still an undeniable energy, thanks to the well-placed TVs showing sports and the friendly chatter from other patrons.
What really sets this place apart, though, is the incredible attention to detail by the staff. Sue who’s in charge of the food really shines here. She's always present, making sure everything runs smoothly, and her dedication to creating a welcoming environment is clear. Her personal touch and commitment to every customer’s experience are evident in every corner of this establishment. The waiters and their staff are equally amazing, always making sure you have everything you need without being overbearing. It's clear that they genuinely care about your experience and want you to feel like a part of the Chrone’s family.
As for the food, the menu is varied, offering something for everyone, from hearty pub classics to innovative dishes that never disappoint. The presentation of each dish is wonderful, and the flavors are spot on. Whether you're there for a burger, buffalo calamari, or Italian favorite dish, each bite is a reminder of why you would want to keep coming back.
The entire vibe of the place is very much like arriving at a family gathering—comfortable, inviting, and full of warmth.
Highly recommended!

Family friendly atmosphere. Great place to sit back and enjoy some time with your close ones.

Service is dependent on the bartender. Food doesn’t seem as good as pre Covid.

After my kids' soccer tournament, we decided to take the team out to a pizzeria nearby for a nice meal together after three intense games. The reviews online seemed decent, so we thought, “Why not give it a try?” Unfortunately, I regret not walking out the moment we stepped in.
The waitress's attitude was the first red flag. From the moment we mentioned we were a group of 16, she looked visibly stressed and acted annoyed. She tossed the menus onto the table—everything felt thrown at us, not handed with care. Despite the rocky start, we decided to stay and ordered our food.
Then came the second issue. We were told the boys needed to stay quiet because they were expecting a reservation soon. Mind you, we were seated next to a bar area where patrons were loudly watching a football game. It felt unfair and inconsistent to single out our group for noise when the environment itself was bustling and lively.
When the food arrived, I’ll admit the quality was great, but the service left much to be desired. The reservation group finally showed up, and the difference in treatment was stark. The waitress was all smiles, pleasant, and accommodating with them—a complete 180 from how we were treated. Frankly, I felt discriminated against.
To make matters worse, while some of our guests were still eating, she came by *four times* to ask if we wanted the check, making it clear she wanted us out. We felt rushed, unwelcomed, and uncomfortable. However, when it came time to process our payment, her demeanor shifted—she suddenly became more attentive and friendly, likely in hopes of earning a better tip.
As someone who has worked in customer service for over 15 years, I know how critical good service is, especially for larger parties where gratuity can make a difference. Unfortunately, this was the *worst* customer service I have ever experienced. What could have been a celebratory team outing was overshadowed by the rudeness and unprofessional behavior of our server.
I won’t be returning and can’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a welcoming dining experience.

We stopped in for dinner at Chrone’s Trattoria to try the food since it’s under new management now. It was SO good!! I got the Greek salad with chicken cutlet and onion rings. Everything was so fresh. I can’t wait to come back- their menu includes a ton so an easy place to go with friends for a great meal. Definitely check it out!

The food was not worth the price! The sauce is terrible and the wings were dried out.
Stopped in after dropping someone off at the airport. We ordered a half pepperoni half cheese pizza. It was delicious, the crust was thin and crispy. Great amount of cheese, and the sauce was perfect. The staff was friendly and super sweet to our 2 small children. Bathrooms were clean, atmosphere was friendly.

Very cool bar with attached restaurant. Very cool, salt of the earth bar with plenty of televisions. The staff is friendly, interactive, and helpful. The bar pie is awesome! Highly recommend the Sicilian pie (which is more akin to a grandma pie), thin crust and cooked to perfection. You won't be disappointed here, and the prices are very reasonable.
