Anthony De RosaJune 18, 2015Lobster roll is decent, you get two for $16 and fries, which is a steal. Nice view of Liberty Harbor. Watch the boats sail by and enjoy a drink on a sunny day.
UNOlkerJune 2, 2013Interesting day time crowd. This beach bar has everything; bros, bikers, families, babies, cugars, inner city youth, furkels, guidos, chicks in cargo shorts. Ample bar space, $6 beers & boardwalk food
Absolutely the best dock and dine in New Jersey, New York, or Connecticut. When you're out on the water all you want is good seafood, and this fits the bill at a totally reasonable price.
Amanda NanawaJune 28, 2019Great place to unwind. You don’t feel like you’re in Jersey City. Also easy access to NY Waterway ferry via Lincoln Harbor stop
James CJune 6, 2017Great waterfront bar. Good mixed drinks and a really nice variety of seafood and other food to enjoy.- Great place 2 chill, those that complain bout food, it's not a 5star restaurant, it's an outdoor bar, it's beer food... Great view, this place brings you the ambiance of the great outdoor, city, beach
- Elaine NgoSeptember 2, 2014great atmosphere! there's a fire pit in the middle of the outside bar area which is cool. drinks prices are average. great place to hang out and relax!
Erik WilliamsonAugust 11, 2012Have kids? this place is awesome. They play, you have a tasty beverage. Beware if you have little ones: there's a fence around the water, but places where they can slip through. so good though.
Take the boat tour that pulls up alongside the bar in the harbor. It's a blast.
- Cesar RazuriJuly 16, 2012Really nice, chill place; optimal during the daytime. Don't expect 5-star meal options. Instead, you'll get reasonably priced/tasting food w/a wide selection of drinks. The lobster roll was alright.
Pat GonzalezMay 17, 2014Multiple bars, tons of beer on tap, and great views of downtown and the marina. Like a beer garden at the beach!
Shrikant ShanbhagJuly 22, 2015Great views and good atmosphere. Open only during the summers for the awesome outdoor sand spots. Be prepared to wait.- Priyanka ShahAugust 27, 2014View, atmosphere, and crowd is great! However, left a $10 tip for the bar tender for the whole night after a couple of drinks and she asked if the service wasn't good enough aka asking for more tip
Nina PaparattoJanuary 7, 2017Great spot for drinks on the water. Food is not great but atmosphere is great for a chill summer day.
Tara DeVincenzoSeptember 1, 2015no brainer for summer nights. take your shoes off and sit in the sand. order half a pound of shrimp if you've got someone to impress.
Richard SmalleyJuly 4, 2013Great place to hang with friends by the waterfront. Grab a table around one of the fire pits.
Drew JenningsSeptember 21, 2014Great for kids during the day. Bring sand toys and enjoy a craft beer while they play.
Charley ToddJuly 29, 2015If you're coming from Manhattan, take the ferry! It pulls right up to the bar.- Friday nights - married women come to get drunk and will pick you up - I refuse until they buy me a drink... You gotta pay to play with me :p
Matt FolgerJune 3, 2018The views are good and it's not overly crowded, but the bar situation is painfully slow
Jay ModiJune 8, 2014Decent atmosphere. Drinks are nice if you're into trying different syrups and fruity flavors. Certain areas tend to smell a little.
Love the views and relaxed atmosphere, but the food and service are subpar.
Brian SalinasAugust 2, 2015Yo this place is wonderful. The staff is so nice and good vibes everywhere bruh.
Rikin DiwanJune 24, 2014Crowd is all over the place, meaning no matter what your scene is you'll fit right in.
Nice location. Expensive drinks. Biergarten is a better value. Schofferhofer is the beer to try.
Much better service than last year! Finally reopened after damage from Sandy. I love this place.
Have a drink outside on the sand and lounge on the beach chairs.
Kimberly PlanckJuly 23, 2012People watch! It's like a clash of the casts of Golden Girls, the Jersey Shore, and businessmen in casualwear.
- Aliona TomaszewskiAugust 17, 2018Absolutely disgusting!!!!! They lost our reservation we made 3 weeks before. We did not any get apologize, instead the “manager” the guard guy told us “get a f.... out here if you don’t like it”
Liz SadkowskiJune 9, 2013Service is weird during the day. There was one waitress for the whole place. I got my food without her. Then Waited to get a drink from her. I almost finished my meal before I just got one myself.
Jeremy SSeptember 15, 2018The service at the outdoor bar was atrocious. We wanted to eat here and ended up leaving.
