“My husband & I met there 46 1/2 years ago. Got engaged there the next New Year’s Eve & we’ve been married 45 years. We always visit when we come up to Jersey. I’m here alone this time but I’m going to stop in.“

“If you’re looking for one hell of a night, this is the place to be in Hoboken. Great pints, lively crowd, and music that keeps the energy going all night long. The staff are super friendly, and the atmosphere makes you feel like you’re right in the heart of Dublin. Perfect spot whether you’re out with friends or just looking to soak in the Hoboken nightlife!“

“This place is outstanding. Great neighborhood atmosphere. Food is crazy good. For a game night the energy is palpable. As a Southerner that works for a NJ company, the 101 Pub represents everything great about the area - the local feel, the strong drinks, the vocal opinions about the sports teams. Not to be missed.“

“Plenty of parking, good food, good vibes.“

“Great beer selection. Great staff. Good vibe. Good people. I am a native New Yorker and very picky about my bars and defensive of my neighborhood. This is the best bar I’ve been to in years. I only wish I’d discovered it sooner.“

“Amazing food. Huge Portions. Excellent service. My only complaint is that I live 4 hours away. 😭“

“Been here a couple times and always a great experience! The locals are awesome.. the bartenders are cool and the food always smells great.. I'll have to eat there one day.. the only thing that I dislike is the parking situation.. otherwise it's a great spot!“

“Love this place! Very much a local Irish joint. Nice loud music and great service with a smile. Reasonably priced, young, fun-loving crowd. Visit if you're in the area. Open till the early hours of the morning at the weekends from what i understand.“

“Always a great time with Tabby, Ngozi, Nat and my karaoke crew!“

“I have very fond memories here, it was like a little home from home for me while I was bi Atlantic for 6 years, working on the same block as the Pig There are lots of “Irish pubs” in the vicinity, although this is the only one that felt like a real pub in the UK rather than a novelty in New York Hopefully I will be back again one day! Thanks for great times when I was missing home 🇬🇧 xxx“

“Chef Melissa Mak is amazing. We’ve been dining at The Front Porch regularly for the past 12 months and not only is the food creative and delicious (Asian fusion pub food, so YUMMY!), the staff is super friendly and the drinks are awesome. We’ve had almost everything on the menu and you won’t be disappointed.“

“Nice place.. it's a little bit on the small size.. drinks are good.. will go back... Went back yesterday we had the surf & turf.. it was good. The only negative thing I have to say is that the music.. we didn't like it.. they need to play more variety of “

“sometimes really fun good time...however if Nicole doesn't like you or is having a bad day stay clear!, but it's part of her charm I guess. eh try it out it's a absolute dive bar environment, the surrounding neighborhood has alot going on too, so u can make a day out of it. ✌️“

“The girls are really pretty, standard price for lap dances. The girls definitely make sure that you’re having a great time, they definitely take care of you in the best way. They don’t have that many women in that spot which is understandable considering how small the place is. So it’s best you sit somewhere comfortable where you’re not too far away from the action. But the only drawback is there isn’t much privacy in the lap dance room so you’re bunched up with other people in there plus the dancers and it does get mighty uncomfortable. They are definitely respectful towards you and treat you like human beings instead of an ATM which is rare nowadays plus they don’t pressure you to drink coming from someone who’s a non drinker.“

“O'Donnell's Pub has the best Guinness I've ever had. (And I have been to Ireland). Most places must use the wrong gases, or don't clean the beer lines and it taste almost grassy. Not a O'Donnell's. It is smooth and just fantastic.“

“Michelle is the best bartender Friendly atmosphere great wings Redd is great too!! Busy nite Michelle was awesome! Handled the crowd like the pro she is!!!“

“Just had a fantastic meal at The Laurels in NYC! The smash burger was incredible—juicy and perfectly cooked, with all the right toppings. And their lavender spritz? So refreshing! But the best part was our server, Ben. He was super attentive and made the whole experience even better. If you go, definitely ask for him!“

“GMT Tavern is a true gem in Greenwich Village. It is one of the few remaining quality pubs downtown that strikes the perfect balance between atmosphere, hospitality, and great food and drinks. I've been coming here for years, whether for a pint and conversation, post-marathon gatherings, or work events, and it never disappoints.

Unlike many downtown spots that feel like nightclubs or dives, GMT has the charm of a classic London pub—sophisticated yet unpretentious, with a welcoming and down-to-earth vibe. It’s a fantastic spot to grab a break from the hyper-commercial, often overwhelming energy of SoHo, whether you're visiting NYU, shopping nearby, or just looking for a relaxed place to unwind.

The beer selection is excellent, and their Guinness is poured to perfection. It’s also a great place to watch soccer, with TVs that enhance the experience without dominating the atmosphere. Last week, we had a fantastic server—attentive, professional, and friendly—and everything we ordered was on point. The giant pretzel was a standout, a perfectly executed pub snack that paired beautifully with a pint.

With cozy indoor seating and outdoor tables when the weather’s nice, GMT is the kind of spot you keep coming back to. I don’t live in NYC anymore, but I try to drop in whenever I’m in town. We’ll definitely host more gatherings here—the Village needs more spots like this!“

“great food, great staff not to be missed“

“The band, The Gyst were fantastic. They are a professional band, sound great, and I drove 3 hours to hear them play. The place and people loved them, I would suggest having them play at your establishment more often. The food was also phenomenal.“

“This is the best bar and my favorite bar in JC. I come for the tots and stay for the drinks and the jukebox. Every time I come here is a great time. It’s a bit small and gets crowded Friday through Sunday so come a bit earlier for a seat at the bar. Very friendly atmosphere, sports and mtv vids shown. The only thing that could make this place better is showing mma fights 💜“

“First time there and it was a fun time!“

“Came here with some of my friends last week and we had a great meal. We got burgers, fries and some other meats. Now all 3 of my friends that came r Allison, bob, and Matt. They all work in an office and sit at a cubical all day. They definitely appreciate me taking them for dinner. We got here and it’s definitely a dive bar atmosphere I’m not used to that but it was a fun time. My friends gave it bad at home and me taking them out for dinner gave them time to vent. Allison said that her 14 yr old son crashed her car because she didn’t give him gas money, bob said that his wife tried to strangle him with her boot laces because he forgot to put soap in the washer and the clothes stunk, and Matt said that his husband did not pleasure him in bed as he had hoped for. Then all the sudden as we were eating Allison decided it would be a lovely time to start her period. She bled all over the chair so me , Matt and bob started to laugh and bully her. The staff was very helpful to her and we ended up just leaving after we ate. We were gonna stay for some beers but we decided we wanted to go home. Definitely come check this place out it’s worth ur time !“

“The food and drinks are delicious.“

“Hotel was a wonderful boutique hotel. Room was very clean, quiet and comfortable. Location was perfect for us as we had a show at The Beacon. Plenty of great restaurants nearby. Small convenient bar on 1st floor of hotel. We will definitely return when visiting NYC again.“

“Harmony our waitress was awesome, this place has the feel like you are in your home town.“
