I love this place. Completely chill vibe, darts, shuffleboard, and great tunes. I’d be here every night if I lived down here.

Great place to unwind after the kids are asleep. Nothing fancy but good drinks and conversation are always sure to happen. Must stop if your in the beach haven area. Open till 2am on weekdays with last call at 1:30 you crazy animals.

LOVE this old school bar! We go every year when we got o LBI. The bartenders are great and drinks are really reasonable. Always a great time!

I really like going to this hole in the wall. The bartenders are nice and so are the other patrons. It looks like it hasn’t been updated since the 70s. Wood paneling … Service is good but beers are a bit pricier than I thought they should be for such a dive bar. Bathrooms are all the way around the other side of the bar which is a pain to get to when it is busy.

Awesome dive bar. Wood everything, shuffle board, darts, billiards. This is the type of place that you should be drinking in down the shore. Everyone that we encountered was friendly. It felt like everyone was a regular, even if they obviously weren’t. Cash only is the only drawback. There is an ATM in there somewhere. I liked the selection on the old school jukebox. I liked that they placed some Rage Against the Machine. I can’t remember the last time I heard that played in a bar.

Great place, feels like my hometown bar. Not sure that’s a compliment to either bit if you like dive bars this is the place for you.

The sign out front is «BAR». What else needs to be said(besides shuffleboard!)

Used to frequent HHB in the 70’s and 80’s. Glad to hear it’s still rockin’! Can remember«The Acme» as well with their .10 cent beers and peanut shells all over the floor. Two LBI institutions.

Hands down one of the best and most unassuming dive bars in existence! Tucked within a residential street headed towards the beach and looking like Hudson decided to convert his first floor man cave into the ultimate bar, Hudson House is one of those rare bar treasures that’s easy to miss without catching a glimmer of their signage or colorful art logo. But upon entering you quickly take in an awesome bar experience that’s filled with cheap drinks, plenty of arcade & bar games, a bad ass jukebox, and the perfect spot to people watch among both vacationers and regulars alike. The bar is cash only, but between the the somewhat shady ATM and most drinks ranging between $ 4 – 5 its very manageable. $ 4 let me the savor the likes of Magic Hat’s Single Chair, their seasonal pumpkin ale, and Yuengling; while $ 5 secured a Victory Hop Devil. There’s also a widespread assortment of bottles to drink on site or enjoy as take away, and boozy libations for the non beer drinkers. Upon entry you can’t help but make note of the full sized shuffle board game while you overhear people taking a shot at the strongarm punch tester. But theirs also a solid pull table, a classic arcade collection, a bowling game, and good reason to say PINBALLALERT thanks to the classic Playboy table. Add in the classic punk and rock filled jukebox and there’s plenty of ways to have fun within, especially when your song encourages barroom dancing. Hudson House is one of those perfect additions to LBI and the Jersey Shore. But its also one of those kick ass neighborhood dive bars that you wish you could find in your hood!

Best little bar in the island. The HUD is the place that you have to be if you are an LBI purist.

Been here twice so far and I like it. I’m a fan of dive bars and this place is great. Not to mention I love the games they have. Good times.

the bar is great, great beer selection and fun bar games between shuffleboard, darts, and some arcade. would definitely return if in the area again. for the other reviewers, yes the atmosphere speaks dive bar, but at this point, it really isn’t. Crowd definitely is a mix of locals and Unilocalers in here, so really can’t call this place a dive since they have more Unilocalers than locals, great craft beer selection, and expensive drinks. at that point its more of a ‘hip’ place vs. a run down bar. a dive bar is where they only serve shots and Bud at a few dollars a pop where a non-regular definitely stands out and there should be a slight fear of not making it out of there alive. haha only con, beers are 5 bucks a pop for 10⁄12 oz glass(can’t tell the exact size but its definitely not a pint). its also a pro because it makes it easy to pay

I second the overwhelming opinion that this place is an awesome dive bar. Craft beers on tap and lots to keep us entertained makes this place stand out from most dives.

Perfect dive bar for LBI. Drinks are reasonable, bartenders are great, and the old school presence of arcade games and CD jukeboxes is much appreciated. Cash only, awesome bar.

How could I be the first Unilocaler not to give this place 5 stars? Looks like a bar right out of your grandfathers’ era. Afternoons were dead but was cool, dark, and quiet inside on a hot, humid, sunny, summer day. Perfect to watch the Phillies lose yet again… Much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Surprised to find they have a pretty good tap list, all micros on tap, and if you want budmillercoors, they have bottles of those. No food served. A very nice down-to-earth, non-hip, getaway from all the über-fanciness on LBI.

This is my kind of bar! A small, quiet, divey bar sandwiched between houses on the street. You would drive right past it without thinking twice if you weren’t looking for it and although it has a small private lot, a lot of people walk or bike there so it doesn’t look like anyone is in there either. They have darts for free, a pool table, boxing game($ 1.00 for two hitS), shuffle bowling($ 0.50 for 10 frames), a free shuffleboard, and super shot($ 50 per game). There is also an older jukebox with a solid selection from older No Doubt to Santana to Janis Joplin to Forest Gump soundtrack. We had a blast at this bar. So much so, we were there for a couple of hours, left to get food at Cheg, and then came back because we were enjoying ourselves so much. There is no kitchen, just some chips and pretzels. There was some confusion about drink prices. When we were first there, all of our mixed drinks(Captain and coke, Jameson and ginger, and Jack and diet) were all $ 5 — later that night, the other bar tender said it was $ 7 per drink but only charged us $ 5 after we told him we were paying differently before. Beer was about $ 4.50−6. Small crowd, not too empty, not too loud. Bartenders were all younger, cool guys who were fun to talk to and joke with. Another young guy posted out front to check IDs was also fun to talk to while people stole a smoke.

I’ve been hanging in LBI for the past 13 years, and I rarely venture out into the night life. Most of the bars on the island just aren’t my scene, and it seems kind of pointless to spend money out in an overpriced club when you can drink microbrews on your deck in the ocean breeze. However, I was bringing a handful of friends to our family beach house and wanted to see if I could find a fun place we could hit on a Saturday night. I logged into Unilocal and searched… lo and behold, a bar listed as a «dive» in LBI? With all 5-star ratings? I had to check it out. The bartenders were as friendly and awesome as could be, the beers were relatively cheap, and the ambiance was fun. Very mixed crowd, from 21 year olds to couples in their 50’s and 60’s. We didn’t stay very long, but we had a great time. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in LBI for the weekend.

This is EXACTLY the kind of bar I feel completely comfortable in. You can wear whatever you want. The jukebox is a real jukebox and filled with awesome. They have darts. The bartender is cool and attentive. The drinks are cheap and stiff. The music is a reasonable volume so you don’t have to scream your conversations. Go here.
