7 Best Bars near Rockaway

“This place is truly one of the best parts of Rockaway. I work at the doctor's office up the street from it and we order take out a lot. They serve all the classic bar favorites to perfection! The juicy burgers are fresh and absolutely fantastic...and OMG the cheesesteak is AWESOME!!!!! But what really makes this place standout are the people behind all of it. Bridgett, the owner, is genuinely one of the loveliest and most accommodating people you'll ever meet. She goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcome, and you can tell that she puts her heart into the place. She will personally deliver our food to our office every single time because we are so busy. And Myles deserves a huge shout-out. That man can cook a burger like nobody else, and the cheesesteak he puts out is honestly next-level! You can taste the care and skill in every bite of it. It's disappointing to see a few unfair reviews floating around, because they don't reflect the real experience here. Great food, great atmosphere, and truly GREAT people. The Mill deserves all the support in the world!“

“This is literally my fav spot on the planet. The burgers are top notch, the dry rub wings are phenomenal and the service is always with a smile! Keep up the good work, Gwen and crew!“

“Had a great time tonight having dinner with a friend of mine. Phenomenal chicken salad grilled with balsamic dressing and also the amazing homemade chili. Great place, awesome service, everything homemade and delicious. Such awesome service, and highly recommend for anyone to come and eat if you’re in Rockaway. Love this place!!!!!! 😀👍“

“Adam’s Beer Garden is a secret gem! I’ve driven passed this a thousand times. There is more then enough room to watch all the games. Spread out at this bar there is a bunch of things to do. Play pool, play the lottery, I believe they have a dart board! Go outside where there is even more endless space and challenge someone to foos ball. Before you go outside grab a cigar from their humidor. Then just chill out there in front of a big screen and watch your team win a game. They have a okay selection of cigars to choose from. The cigars are reasonably priced. Lots of beer on tap. We ordered a pitcher you should too! Cash only! Don’t think they sell food.

Parking: I parked along the railroad tracks.“

“One of our favorite local spots. Perfect for outdoor dining during nice summer weather. Their menu has a lot to pick from and everything we’ve gotten has been delicious. Highly recommended.“

“This was our favorite restaurant for years when we lived in NJ. We were in area last week (after 15 years). WOW - the menu, the food, the cocktails, the service and effort put into everything is still FABULOUS! Our dinner on Friday was so good, we ate there again on Saturday night. Thank you Dan and your entire team.“
