Cash bar with an atm
No champagne
Watered down patron $ 9 shots
It was obvious after 4 shots each me and my friends had.

At closing we walked outside completely fine.
Odd
Nice juke box, very local dive with old school bikers and North Bergen clientele.
Kinda fun.
We left when we learned our bartender was a loud and proud Hillary Supporter
Ugh
Back to the Hub
When it comes to that area.
Miss the Tiffany bartender from back in the day
She was always fun

great local dive bar. super friendly staff, solid live music, and good drink specials. definitely worth checking out!

Great dive bar-​cheap drinks, easy street parking, good local vibe, smoking lounge outside for those who indulge, cute gal bartenders with an attitude who aren’t shy with a pour or a buy back. Ticks all of my boxes! Can’t rate it higher than that, can I?

Good entertainment, great staff, and friendly clientele. What more do you want :)

Bartenders are awesome, nice chill spot, alot of locals they seemed friendly. Drink prices are cheap. i had a great time, i will definetley come back.

They had Maker’s Mark and Jim Beam. Clean glasses. Good people. Men’s room. Heat. There’s a low bar, admittedly, for afternoon diversionary drinking, but the joint cleared it easily.

I’ve only been here once as an adult, not to my surprise I didn’t care for it. I’m not big on dive bars. For the simple fact they don’t carry good beer, or a good top shelf whiskey. If I was 21 maybe I could deal with that, but I’ve been drink American Craft beer before I turned 21.
So with no real selection of beer to drink I had a shot of whiskey. While my friends played darts I put some music on the jukebox and wasted my night. If you’re looking for a place with no substance and a limited selection in booze come here.
I just wish this guy would sell so someone could make it into a sick bottle shop that did smoked BBQ in the summer. This town needs something new and better than what we have. It’s either five bars or over priced bars that try to be like their in New York City.

Not sure how I got here. The Biker Mice from mars where seated right next to me drilling me asking me where I was from. Hoboken, people in Hoboken do not dress like that! Ohh ok, then I am from Newark. He was satisfied with this answer. Fortunate for me I was literally in a taping of Sons of Anarchy. The guy next to me tried to keep his conciseness, leaning side to side. The bartender asked me what I wanted. Coors light, I guess $ 4.00 as some other places in Jersey City. I felt as that was too expensive!
There was a couple playing darts, under the dart table was leather couches. Hate to sit there as they widely threw darts, think Burr-​Hamilton duel. Wait a minute that happened in Weehawken this N. Bergen.
I asked for a Jameson neat. Bartender said «Jameson shot.» no. I want it neat. What was cool she asked me if I wanted more, with a strange grin she poured more. If I had I known I was making a deal with the devil. I would have passed. She obviously doesn’t get this request too much; she then went to some sort of «drink map legend» above the register. I assume this «Legend» said charge this Meffer as much as you can. 10.00 Please. Damn felt like I was in the Meatpacking somewhere.
Bright side, at the juke box was some pretty ladies playing «three doors down» then transcending to Tupac music that was a nice mix. Also there are concerts here; DJ with dancing some nights and a pool table. This Biker dive bar s stays open till 3am… Don’t get the Jameson «neat» here!

If there was ever a necessity to make a model for a design of a «dive bar,» this would be the bar used for the mold. It is your typical dive bar complete with pool table and dart board and a stripper pole. (You read that correctly!) In it’s heyday, it was predominantly considered a biker bar thus branding it with a bad reputation. However, in recent days, it’s your typical neighborhood bar. A decent place to watch a game or hear some tunes on the limited yet modern MyTouchTunes jukebox.
On weekends, the back room hosts live music from local rock bands and dance nights with a DJ. Mixed drink specials galore on these evenings.
Perhaps one of the best kept secrets of this bar is that it has it’s own outdoor «Tiki Bar» at the rear of the building that doubles as the bar’s smoking section and hookah bar. It’s perfect for those avid drinkers who don’t wish to put their beer bottles down whilst having a cigarette. This is one of very few bars in Jersey that has it’s own outdoor smoking area. It’s a testament to the adaptability of the bar itself.
It’s downside is that it’s CASH ONLY which is why it only gets 4 stars. It’s not a problem to find an ATM nearby and it has it’s own ATM machine complete with a ridiculous surcharge for withdrawing money but, in this day and age, people very rarely carry cash so it’s a nuisance. It also has a limited tap selection but makes up for it by being able to serve alcohol on or off premise. (read: You can take some to go.)
All in all, a good place to meet up with friends for a few, pregame it before hitting another bar or even coming back to for nightcaps after coming back from another bar or club.
