Heading back to Dubai and had a couple hours before my connection boarded so I stopped here as it was directly next to my gate. I grabbed a beer and a pizza. The beer was decent. The pizza wasn't terrible but was a bit too salty. There's no real service as you order through a website after scanning a QR code. So no one to check up on you. All the tables are high tops and include outlets for charging. It's in the middle and open all around. I noticed several people sitting and using the outlets without ordering anything and a few others that were sitting eating food from other establishments. read more

Caps Beer Garden - Pepperoni Pizza and an Ommegang Rare Vos Amber Ale. - Pubs Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

This place has no soul. The company that runs it should be ashamed that they don't have real servers or bartenders. Skip this place and get food and drinks from a place that doesn't suck. This takes airports to an all new low even though the place isn't new. read more

The airport experience at Newark is a unique one. Having been there before, I was intimately familiar. I grabbed a seat and ordered my sandwich and beer through the tablet. I'm all about the cost when traveling, but the prices at Newark will humble you. I for a BLT because I was cheaper and I got a beer cause it was the lowest price option. Both were okay. The seating arrangement is not desirable, as I have strangers in front of me and on both sides. Not the best dining experience. read more

Well it is an airport... we only did a drink so cannot comment on food. Yuu order off the QR code and frankly it was quick. We did need to clean up the table but the airport is hopping! read more

Decided to have lunch before I boarded my flight. I ordered a pepperoni pizza and a corona. Well the only thing I received was my beer. I waited and couldn't find anyone to ask about my order. Finally got in touch with someone right before I boarded. Hopefully they refund my pizza since I never got it!! Feeling hungry read more

This is the worst experience I've ever had in an airport. If you're thinking about going here, turn around and go literally anywhere else. We went here for quick snacks and drinks before our flight (or we thought it would be quick). We ordered 2 beers, a burrata and toast, and a meatball pizza. After almost 30 minutes, the beers, which are coming from 10 feet away, finally arrive. After even more waiting, we finally try to figure out what is going on with the wait. We ask one of the staff who was very rude and pretty much ignored our question. After an hour of waiting, he comes back with our burrata and toast and tells us that they are "out of the pizza we ordered". He says it will only take another 20 minutes to get a different one, but offers no explanation as to why NOW is when we're hearing of this. We decided to just leave after the burrata and we filed for a refund. Absolutely terrible. read more

Ordered a lobster sushi roll and a coffee before my flight using the QR ordering system. More than 30 minutes after ordering, someone comes to me and says I need to cancel my order and request a refund because they don't have someone available to actually prepare the food. And because of that, they also can't bring my coffee. But I was told I was welcome to reorder my coffee if I would like, but it would be an extended wait because they are understaffed. That was followed by an email saying someone would look into my cancellation request in the next week or so, and if they deem it valid, they will then process a refund for the $50 of food and drink I didn't receive. That refund, of course, will also take time, which means they are keeping my money while providing no service. And if they determine that not having someone to make food isn't a reasonable excuse, I will then be out $50, having received absolutely nothing beyond extreme frustration. read more

Only gets a star because it's a required field. The QR code system is terrible. The staff is nice, but there's no signage that helps. You understand how to order a flipping beer. The prices are absorbent - unacceptably high - do not go to this location. read more

I'm throwing 5 stars!! Wasn't even sat yet and LEE came around got my beer order, plugged in my phone, ordered some sushi and it came in 4 min!! Love the new terminal, great service, mad at United for changing my gate in the last 30 min before boarding- hard to run with a cast on- but all good! Beer Garden made my already 13 hr day better. Will be back!! read more

Awful experience. Was tricked into ordering from them due to the convenience of ordering through the tablet... but we never got our order after we paid and ended up boarding our flight with an empty stomach. Service is awful. Had a struggle while trying to get hold of a person, and once we did, we were told that they were out of what we had ordered, and we'd need to wait "at least 30 more minutes" for them to get it. Upon following up, we were told that they're out of the item and we'd have to wait "at least 30 more minutes" for them to get it. It was time to board, so they said they would refund us the money (and they only refunded a fraction of what we were charged.) read more

Ordered sushi roll and fries. Roll was decent, nothing to write home about. Came after 20 minutes or so. Don't know about the fries because apparently they "take longer since someone has to go to the kitchen to get them" and I have a flight to catch. Would only recommend eating here if you are stuck at the airport for more than an hour! read more

Food: 1/5 Service: 0/5 Cleanliness: 2/5 Decor & Style: 2/5 I feel bad for giving this rating of 1/5. I do it based off my experience of the day of service however I know (honestly, I HOPE) it's not like this on the other days... Okay so I came here the day after a hurricane and the service was the worst i've had in my life. Again, lets blame it on the hurricane and everyone called-in except for 1 server. Service was SLOW and it took 30 minutes to get my ONE beer (I won't even mention how long it took to get my pizza). I really just wish they just closed down period and had a sign that said "Due to hurricane we will be closed due to low-staffing." But guess what? They decided to keep one server on to serve 40 people. SMART, right? NO. I've been a restaurant manager in the past and I would've closed down the restaurant for the day. ONE STAR RATING for this place for POOR MANAGEMENT. Also, the food here sucks. Do I have credibility? I hope! I RARELY give out 1 stars. I hope management reads this. Next time i'm in Newark I will try my best to find a McDonald's or other fast food restaurants. If fast food isn't available I rather starve for 48 hours then to eat at CAPS. SMH. Writing this review makes me never want to enter Newark again. read more

Burgers were good. Bllody Mary was tiny. Maybe 6 or 8 oz. Don't get it. Fat Tire beer was good

I sat at the bar and ordered a beer. After over 15 minutes and no beer, I pressed the call attendant button,. This did nothing. After over 20 minutes, I flagged down one of the bartenders. My beer was soon brought to me. No comment, no I'm sorry it took so long. When you are in an airport waiting for you're connecting flight, 20+ minutes is a long time. read more

5 stars for the sushi. 1.5 stars for the wait. The good: I know what you're thinking, "airport sushi??" I had the same thought. But when I saw some of the reviews mentioning sushi and the fact that a platter was $30 where a burger was $28, it seemed like good value. Man, it was delicious! Better than market sushi for sure, like good Japanese restaurant quality. Props to the sushi chef who is clearly making the most of the situation. The bad Took over 35 mins for my order to arrive, so had approx 3 minutes to eat before boarding. The person behind me actually had to cancel their burger order (so it wasn't just the sushi taking a while) and ask for a refund because it took so long. Not clear from the iPad how to get help and who to ask to check up on your order. Concrete feature suggestion: add approx wait time to menu items. The servers were direct and relatively nice about it at least. Seemed like there was some other issue going on - like they were short staffed perhaps. read more

I order on the automated system a burger and no fires - salad instead. Wrong delivery and ask for correction - server asks like it is my fault the order is wrong - crazy post Covid world read more

I found myself at CAPS while waiting for a delayed flight in Terminal C in desperate need of a snack and a beverage. It's the typical OTG iPad setup, this time arranged around a long bar. Prices are high, contact with humans is limited, all that jazz. The menu here is a kind of Americanized pan-Asian bar food, and it comes out quickly. For a beer garden, selection is somewhat limited and mass market, but not a bad deal on Asian lagers. My kimchi hot dog was garnished with exactly one spicy and passably flavorful piece of cabbage, which admittedly covered the whole dawg though it was difficult to avoid eating the whole thing in one long bite. The meat was pretty good, but the pretzel bun and various sauces outshone it. Side salad forgettable. My boyfriend fared unexpectedly well with a salmon and rice dish topped with a fried egg; super flavorful from the mushrooms. Filling and healthy, not bad! If you're in Newark, you could do far worse. read more

One star, only because the food was OK, and because Yelp won't let me leave half a star or lower. That being said... based on my experience with this eatery, I can only conclude that they are incredibly racist and sexist. I was at Newark Airport Terminal C twice within a week (11/3/21 and 11/8/21), and both times decided to grab dinner at CAPS Beer Garden. Both times, I ordered their beer (24oz) and wings special, because it's inexpensive for the product that you get. Sue me for wanting to save a few bucks, especially with how overpriced airport food is. Also I should note that we both ordered on iPads, and were out of the line of sight of the bar from where we were sitting. Both times, I flew with my partner (who is a white male, and his name suggests that he belongs to those demographics), but placed my order before he did. I am a woman of color, and my name suggests as much (obviously feminine name and clearly non-American/"foreign" last name). Both times, my beer came out, and they gave me a 16oz beer, rather than the 24oz advertised. When I called this out, they handed me an 8oz cup of beer to make up for the discrepancy in the size of the drink. However, my partner got his full 24oz on the first try, both times. Also, his order came out much more quickly than mine did, again both times. Why does a person with a name that presents as white and male get the entire product that he paid for (and with quicker service), but I, as a person whose name suggests that they were a woman of color, get shortchanged until I call them out? And they didn't even try to argue, presumably because they knew they were in the wrong. So. Women and people with "ethnic names," do not waste your time and money at this location. They will try to shortchange you - you better believe you'll be paying the same price as white men, while getting less product with worse service. Unless you call them out. Disgusting that people still operate this way in 2021, and think they're slick enough to get away with it if no one questions them. I know that these days many people like to dismiss anything having to do with the differential treatment that women and minorities receive as "wokeness" or "overly PC" or what have you, but I genuinely don't know what else to call this behavior but racist and sexist. What I do know, is that I will not be spending my hard earned money at this establishment again, and I urge everyone else (especially women and people of color) to do the same. Photos: 1) both cups that they gave me, the emptier one being the one they gave me to make up for the amount of beer they originally shortchanged me (both were full when they handed them to me); 2) screenshot of the special as it appears on their menu; 3) the cup that they handed my partner (was full when they handed it to him); 4) comparison between the first cup they handed me and the cup they handed my partner (both were full when they handed them to us) read more

Every single restaurant and bar in the C gate area of a Newark airport is controlled by the same company. Everything is ordered on iPads, staff are disengaged, you're supposed to tip up front (for what???) and the prices are out of control. Not to mention that they are encouraging humans to spend even more time on screens. Whatever you do AVOID EATING AT NEWARK. This is a greedy monopoly you don't need to support. Disgusting! read more

Wine came within a few minutes. Waited for 45 min for a sandwich. It was decent but not worth the wait. Do not come here. Do not come to the Newark airport. read more

Horible service, dry sandwich,they have coffee brought down from Starbucks that never showed up.

Waited thirty minutes for my order that came out wrong. Don't come here, you might not get your food before your flight.

Their whole menu is sushi, but they stop making it at 7pm. They don't have that written anywhere, though. So we sat down and ordered sushi with their app menu, only to be told after they gave us drinks that they didn't have any sushi to give us and we'd be refunded. When we ordered something else, it took half an hour to arrive (which seems kinda silly in an airport), and my "avocado toast" wasn't toasted and was basically just a pile of greens on bread with no seasoning or dressing. Oh. And this, plus a single vodka cran, was all $60. Bitter, dry, exorbitantly expensive, and incredibly disappointing. I get that no one's happy to be stuck in an airport (myself included), but this was terrible. I should have gotten an egg salad at Hudson News. read more

Since Newark started to revamp their restaurants, this is one of the restaurants that popped up as a result. It has many seats and a varied Asian/Sushi menu. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Buns and they were good. The kimchi that came with it was also good. Prices for everything were ridiculously high and their sushi sizes were really sad. I liked my meal, but I don't think price matches the quality or size. read more

I think it's important to take location into consideration. I didn't much, until we moved from NYC to Raleigh. We quickly learned that a Raleigh 4.5 star was closer to an NYC 3 star. (Things down south have gotten significantly better since then) But now when I rate businesses, I take their location into account. So yes, I give Caps Beer Garden a 4 star. For an airport location, I definitely would give this place 4 stars. Great play list, solid menu (although I do steer clear from airport sushi, sorry no offense, but I have my limits). I opted for the Cobb salad and at first, regretted my decision, but was pleasantly surprised once my meal arrived. The radishes were nice and fresh and the chicken had a good flavor to it. The Pinot Grigio hit the spot. Overpriced? Absolutely. Mind-blowingly out of this world? Definitely not. It's in an airport, and that's what you're going to get. But for what it's worth, it was a really good lunch spot to help me pass the time waiting for my next flight. But the staff was super friendly, and the quality of the food didn't disappoint and beats hitting the food court. read more

My flight supposed to be at 3pm leaving New Jersey. So I figured I just grab something to eat at the airport. As I got there, I got delayed text due to crappy Buffalo weather! Aaaaaggghh... so I started looking around for restaurant. I knew I have to avoid Sansoi like a plague. I opt to choose for the restaurant closed to the gate. Good choice. Price of course pricey but standard airport food . They have all different kind of menu. Pizza, sushi, burger, vegetarian etc. they all look good. Though some still look like overpriced, mostly standard airport pricing. I opt to get food from appetizers menu. I saw Bo Ssam it's a pork shoulder that marinated all night with some asian spices and something else. Come with lettuce to wrap and kimchi. At first I was like kimchi??? Odd combo. But turned out to be good choice. It cut the fattiness and grease. Either I'm-so hungry or it's very delicious, I pretty much clean almost all the food.. I left maybe only a couple pcs. Tiny one. I polished all the kimchi. I'm so happy camper for a little bit until I gett notification for another 55 minutes delayed! Waaakkk. O yeah I also ordered miso soup. It is as expected for miso soup. read more

Drink service is fine, way overpriced but fine. Food service: don't bother, especially if you are in a hurry. It was not busy when I visited on a Thursday evening and somehow took 45 minutes from when I ordered a piece of pie and multiple check ins with the waitress to learn they were out and would I like something else. The replacement desert ( did not need to be cooked) took an additional 25 minutes. I would have cancelled if my plane wasn't 35 minutes late. Ambiance is nice for an airport but the service is impractically slow for anyone who wants food. Will not repeat. read more

I enjoyed the sushi and the Korean pork, not bad for airport food! I know not everyone is a fan of the self ordering pads, but as a frequent traveler I don't mind the convenience. wait staff is still attentive. So if you happen to be in the neighborhood of gate C130, I recommend it! And fyi, don't let the name confuse you, extensive sushi and Korean menu, enjoy the kimchi read more

So why is it beer garden and not Biergarten? Weird, this is not a garden, it's an airport. I can't throw peanut shells on the floor so I call BS. But anyway, that's some corporate nonsense that has nothing to do with the service here. The bartenders were excellent, friendly and were great to interact with. The drinks were needlessly expensive. But since I am trapped in this airport for three hours I am glad I came here to spend an exorbitant amount of money on drinks that would have cost me nothing in the real world. read more

I got charged $21.19 for a drink that I never even got. I am old fashioned and rather would speak to the bartenders directly. Don't waste your time!

Ordered a breakfast sandwich, waited 25 minutes. it was made incorrectly. I told them and they tried to get me to eat it. I told them to bring me what I ordered, 30 min later, it was still "coming". No one apologized or updated me on the status. The place was basically empty but somehow it takes 30 min to make a breakfast sandwich. When I complained they were like no one is even making your food, click a form to issue a refund. read more

Easily the worst service and breakfast for $50. Additionally an incredible amount of waste (your meal arrives in to go packaging inside a huge paper bag with plastic ware) and my mimosa came with lip stick prints that weren't mine. Nearly zero human interaction from our server. As if that wasn't enough, coffee came luke warm and tasted like it had been made yesterday. It appears that no matter which restaurant in this terminal you choose, the food comes out of the same kitchen and the menus are the same no matter where decide to eat. Do not recommend. Chose a star because you can't choose no stars. read more

So many people hating on this airport beer garden I had to chime in. Although I didn't dine, it was a welcomed experience. To those of you who are missing the human interaction and being doted over by your server, go to ANY other restaurant in the airport. Sometimes I don't want to talk to servers and go through the motions. I wanted to get some work done, drink a beer, and charge my phone. I happily did all of those things and didn't need to search for a server to get the check etc... I swiped my card and walked away. The staff, although in the background were very polite and helpful. After running out of the beer I ordered, the manager gave me a double sized brew at no extra charge. I would welcome these in airports all over. read more

I don't mind using the iPads... At least I don't have to wait for a server to come find me. I don't got time for that. Plus, I always keep wet wipes with me, so I just wipe 'em down. Wary about the sushi, but the sautéed veggies were great. Great flavors. Like lo mein without the noodles. I would've been more experimental with my food, but I was just recovering from a stomach bug. I had time to sit and relax for 1.5 hrs before my flight (very rare). And right by my gate too. Airport winning. read more

Caps Beer Garden - Sautéed veggies - flavorful, crunchy, and fresh! - Pubs Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Caps Beer Garden is a convenient place to stop for a drink before your flight. Not only do they have a huge beer selection (the best I've seen at any airport so far), but they also allow you to order everything through a convenient ipad interface at your seat. Prices weren't completely crazy, at least not compared to SF pricing. The only downside is that they don't really have any vegan options (just a few vegetarian options that might be veganizable.) We brought food into the airport from a restaurant in NYC and fortunately they didn't give us a hard time about eating it at the bar. read more

Stopped by this place prior to our flight. It's pretty cool to have an iPad at each seat for ordering and entertaining. I wish the space between each seat was wider. Everything was pretty pricy. Oh well, I guess it's just like any other airport restaurants. read more

Just finished up having a few cold ones at this bar. I got to Newark Airport early & I had time to kill so when I saw that this bar was right next to my gate, I decided to try it out. Right away what I liked about this bar is that they have tv's hanging up by all the seating & the fact that it had the NBA Finals preview on. Each seat is also equipped with a touch screen iPad & you can place your orders on their while also paying right there as well. The iPads also ask you what flight you are on & give up updates about your flights status. This was very helpful for me because they informed me that my flight was moved up by 10minutes. Being that it was a beer garden, it had an ample amount of beers to choose from. Since my go to beer is Bud Light, I really had no clue what to get. What was helpful was that each beer had a picture, small description, & price next to it. I was able to pick out a few that I really enjoyed while I watched the television. Is it a bit pricey, yea, but that's what you get at an airport bar. My experience at this beer garden was a very positive one & if my flight gate is ever near it again I'll be sure to make a stop here! read more
