This bar has a lengthy list of burgers named after the various Jersey City neighborhoods. Try the Paulus Cook, which comes with mushrooms, gruyere cheese, and crispy onions.

Jen RiosDecember 6, 2016This place has a great ambiance. Relaxed rustic vibe yet refined enough to make me a great cocktail and salmon burger. The truffle fries! Seriously drool worthy, like, I'm drooling at the thought.
Erika PerziApril 27, 2018Unique take on nachos, incorporating Texas style queso. Delicious, swapped pork for chicken instead. Great place to watch sports and burgers are supposed to be amazing.
Buffalo fried cauliflower is a good start. Burgers are pretty good. Decent beer choices! All around a nice place.
Mike LydenOctober 8, 2014Excellent beer selection and pretty goddamned amazing burgers. Enjoy the industrial-chic decor and liveliness inside or completely chill in the outdoor seating area.
Preeti MackerNovember 15, 2014Another work of caution, be prepared to sit with your puffer on if you get one of the booths in the rear vent...the vents are blowing the chill from outside into this area.... brrrrrrr!- Amy SagarJanuary 20, 2019The Heights burger was amazing. We also liked the buffalo cauliflower, truffle park fries, and Mac n cheese.
Sam HMay 25, 2015Good date night spot, great burgers and surprisingly awesome cocktails. They've got some great things on tap, ask for the cider! Truffle fries are a must- John PerezOctober 21, 2017Heights Burger with subs on caramelized onions and extra cheese was great! Parm truffle fries were delicious and crunchy.
Favourite street side bars/ food place in JC. Excellent bar. Grab a quick beer on workday or brunch with family on weekends. Pretty good variety in food.
Awesome bar with good beer options and incredible food. Eat outside if possible. It's quiet.- Rotimi A. WilliamsFebruary 7, 2016Van Vorst + Truffle Fries. Basically haven't tried much else on the menu because its so consistently good.
- Preeti MackerNovember 15, 2014Great ambience, drinks and music. Can't say the same about the food unfortunately. Definitely not the best fish and chips in the neighborhood!
Really good burgers and chicken sandwich. Definitely no longer a dive, they did a nice job refurbishing the joint
Come play trivia Wednesday nights at 8. A $50 bar tab is up for grabs!
Drink beer and eat food here. Make sure you don't get hit by the train on the way out!
VeraMarch 9, 2017Prime Sirloin was over-seasoned and smells weird like one's bad breath. It was impossible to finish the dish. :(
looking to throw darts in jersey city? look no further.
Kev and Liz can't touch Eugene and Erin at darts. Don't even try.
