50 Best Cocktail Bars near North Bergen

“We had a thoroughly delightful meal at Porto. Service was stellar, and the food was beautifully and deliciously prepared.

I’d been to Italy earlier this year, and our dinner tonight made me feel like I was back again, enjoying only the greatest hits of my trip.

The evening concluded with a night cap (or two) in the Blue Room Speakeasy upstairs, and as great as our meal had been, our experience upstairs was our favorite moment of the night, due entirely to the skill and presence of our bartender, Nina. Her cocktails were balanced and delicious, and her delightful, effortless charm added an unexpected enchantment to our night. Bravo!“

“My husband and I were in the area after watching a movie and wanted to grab a drink before heading home. We found this spot and it turned out to be such a great experience! The tiki-style cocktails were delicious, well-balanced, and definitely worth trying. The atmosphere was incredibly unique—it truly felt like being on a boat, with the captain making announcements, background sounds, and even bubbles adding to the immersive experience. Last call was well organized, and overall the vibe was just fun, and memorable.“

“Really good coffee and salmon on rye bread 👌“

“Great place to watch the sunset over NYC! Great drinks and good food! Excellent service.“

“This is one of the coolest bars in the city, and I think it's actually more locals than tourists. It's such an interesting mix of people, I love it, and it has a great high energy, so you know it attracts fun people! The bar itself is so beautiful and they have a highly curated cocktail program.

The dj is always playing such fun music, such a cool spot, especially if you live off of the 1 train, because this place is in the 50th Street downtown 1 station. So sick!“

“Fantastisk plass, og utrolig gode drinker! Anbefales!“

“We hosted a private party in the Honey Lounge upstairs during the afternoon - the food was excellent, the space adorable and the bartenders friendly and speedy. More than anything, Bee's Knees was a dream to work with ahead of time - they were incredibly flexible and timely with space access, design of the space, and answering our multitude of questions. I would host a private party there again in a heartbeat.“

“Fab place, great service, amazing cocktails“

“simply the best. The food and drinks are perfect every time. Whether you’re ready for a full meal or just some drinks and snacks Bar Madonna always hits the spot. Plus the staff are not only super attentive but also drinks experts that can make you just about any cocktail you’re craving. Definitely a crowd (or date!) pleaser, highly recommend“

“Amazing food and drinks!🥤“

“Stay Away!!! Just kidding, this spot is popular and rightfully so for all the right reasons. The atmosphere is bot chill and warm for lounge lizards wanting a great watering hole. The drinks are fantastic, The Monk Fashioned being my favorite, reminds me of a magical Sazerac. The food here is delicious too, been a couple times and look forward to returning again soon. Love the Sweet And Salty Grilly with Gruyère, Prosciutto, Fig Spread, Arugula on Sour Dough. The Fonduey Mac & Cheese is also a cooze fest of cheesy goodness, also the Whipped Feta with the Everything Bagel Pretzel. Always love to get the Crab Cakes. Though I’m eyeing the Skewered Thighs for next time they look like a divine dine. Fortunately we’ve gotten in without a reservation, though I’m sure it’s good to have one.“

“One of the better meals I’ve had out in awhile. Very nice atmosphere that’s both cozy and upscale.

I had the ribeye steak and it was incredible. Perfectly cooked. And for me Thai flavors are generally well balanced with sweet, sour, savory…. But the char on the steak really kicked it up a notch.

Service was great! Very friendly staff that were attentive.“

Please be respectful and patient for the high demand is eminent. 🥃👌🏼“

“I took 6 of my friends here for my birthday dinner last night, LaZiza did NOT disappoint. We were offered a custom chef dinner, coursed out and fitting with any/all allergies. The food was absolutely delicious, from spreads (just get them all), salads to charcoal mushrooms, prawns, chicken, falafel, roasted chicken and lamb. Of course we also had the baclava and flourless chocolate cake. Everyone was happy and full. The cocktails should not be missed either they were all delicious and unique. The atmosphere was vibrant, especially for a Tuesday, with records playing continuously and the guests dancing in their seats. This place is a gem, go get yours.“

“Great presentation. Great drinks. Great service. Overall great experience 😎“

“Excellent restaurant. Really amazing and memorable food, attentive and comfortable service, and cute space. We had a great time here and want to come back soon. We eat a lot at indian restaurants, and this by far one of the best ones. Much much better food quality than the overhyped and overpriced Bungalow.“

“Popped in on a Saturday afternoon because I heard live jazz from outside. They do live music on Saturdays for brunch and Monday as well. Shin (?) took care of me at the bar and I had an excellent experience. I'm definitely coming back with a bigger appetite.“

“Easily the best Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn. Beautiful space, great food (get the whole steamed fish) and excellent service—friendly, helpful and relaxed. The place is busy but we never felt rushed. And for the quality and quantity of food it’s a great value. Will definitely be back.“
