27 Best Pubs near Rockaway

“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!“

“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!“

“We went to McKenna’s Pub to get drinks and play pool for my daughter’s birthday today. It was really a great experience and I’m so glad we found it!! The bartender Billy was so welcoming and went above and beyond for us. The other guests were also very friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. Even though I lost at pool, McKenna’s Pub will definitely be a go to for us in the future!!“

“Wasn't sure where to go to watch the game... looked this up and saw it was in the bowling alley, thought why not let's see. Very solid spot! They have high end craft beers on tap and the food was more than serviceable. Will be back.“

“Friendly atmosphere and great service. Food and drinks are also on point.“

“Great atmosphere, good food, welcoming staff and terrific entertainment!“

“I have lived in the area for over 20 years, and I had no idea this spot existed inside the Hanover Marriott—even though it’s been here for 26 years! I was very pleasantly surprised when I finally walked in. The decor and ambiance are fantastic; you can really tell the woodwork and furnishings were crafted in Ireland, shipped over, and reassembled to create a genuinely authentic pub atmosphere.
The service from Michael was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and welcoming throughout our stay. The food was very good as well, making it an ideal venue for a quiet business lunch. I will definitely be back soon, and I am looking forward to trying it out on the weekend for a date night!“

“What can we say? except we've been coming here for several decades and the new additions to the restaurant and the new view are amazing. the wood carving all around it makes it a very special place, but the most important part is the home crafted beers and the delicious food. I swear they could make this place double the size and it would still be packed by locals. that's when you know it's a great place! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Good food and good service“

“The steak was cooked to perfection tonight and the service was great. They were incredibly business and managed to still provide great food, service and drinks! 🍷“

“Absolutely our favorite place! Love Dawn RJ and Nicki!!!“

“Table 42 is a traditional Italian staple and a true gem in Dover. While we will always miss Chuck, we hope the new owner preserves the incredible ambiance and vibe that keeps the regulars coming back! There's simply no other place like it. A huge part of why we return is Mauricio the Chef, who makes the best pasta fagioli, and the wonderful servers like Joannie. We go for that unique feeling as much as for the fantastic food. Table 42 reminded me of Cheers, I truly hope it doesn’t lose its uniqueness.“

“Been here twice and had a great time with both. I mainly sit at the bar tables and they got a great vibe here. Happy hour is always a great value and the mixup of seasonal cocktails means you often have something new to try, pair that with food and your in for a good cozy night out. Highly recommend and Dan and Caitlyn in the bar are fantastic and the whole staff is so attentive and ready to help!“

“Excellent steak at a reasonable price. Good bar for a pre dinner drink. Very good service with a friendly staff. A little loud at times to carry on a conversation but that all lends itself to its lively atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend Arthur’s and will be back.“

“Fun time local bar nice people great bartenders“

“Fun, casual restaurant best for apps and pub type fare. Friendly staff. Lots of seating inside and outside. 3 stars for atmosphere ONLY because it was quite noisy inside considering it wasn’t that crowded. Would definitely go back again“

“We’re not from the area b it we wanted to stop somewhere to watch the 1 o’clock game and Amanda was on it! We were able to sit at the bar with no issues, partake with the local patrons that were already there! The wings, Charley’s chips did not disappoint! Thank you for making us feel welcomed! 😎🙌“

“Our two bartenders Matt and Brielle(hopefully I got this right) were phenomenal! We ended up coming back late at night and they were so busy but took the time to remember us from earlier. Amazing atmosphere and staff! Thanks for the good time!“

“Great place but the manager needs to be more respectful to its patrons and girls. As I was enjoying my modelo and a dance, I saw him yelling at one of the girls for using her phone and he was also rude to me on the phone for asking questions. I plan on returning but a little more respectful doesn’t hurt,“

“NOTHING... The service was horrible and the wait time incredibly long. Then on top of all that they AUTOMATICALLY added a 20% gratuity to our bill and when the bill came there was a space to add a gratuity... so if you don't look at your bill and just add the gratuity you got RIPPED OFF“
