We ordered two orders of potato pancakes, a lobster roll, pierogies, and a bratwurst roll. My only complaint is the lobster roll had so much celery. There was a decent amount of lobster meat, but the celery is too much. Looking forward to giving the lobster roll a try again in the future to see if there's a difference. read more

Place/vibe - 4 stars. Very old and unique charm. Heat doesn't work well though and seats are not super comfy/old. But definitely worth a visit for the decor alone. Service - 5 stars. Very nice and attentive staff. Well staffed. food - 3 stars. It was a mixed bag. The corn beef Reuben and soups are very good. It's huge and loaded with cheese and tender. The burgers are great - massive. Kids burger is a great value. However, The German food and popular "steak sandwich " were super overrated and not good. Schnitzel was mediocre and the sauce was awful - very sweet. The steak sandwich was sirloin just not good cut and small portion over toast. I didn't like it. Garlic potato's and garlic sauce in general is very good amazing flavor. As I said mixed bag. read more

This place is a treasure! I've been wanting to come here for some time now and I got the chance recently with my gf and I wasn't disappointed. I felt like I was walking into a pub in County Cavan, Ireland where my family came to America from. This is the kind of place I could spend hours sipping Southwick and eating apps while talking to the bartender about life. The night I visited they were closing soon so I didn't get to try their fish and chips which I hear are great, but I will be in again soon to try them. Trust me! I had a Southwick and my gf had a Magners. You can't go wrong with either of them. The vibe of this place is amazing and I'm excited to return. Until then, Sláinte! read more

After we saw the bottle of 45/47 Trump wine on the wall we knew why food was par and overpriced, never been back. They can keep their pedo wine to themselves. read more

I wanted to like this place: my mom and dad have told me fond memories of coming here. Now that dad is gone, and mom is moving. I figured it was a good time to take my mom down memory lane. I recently I visited town and took my mom here for her first time in years and my first time ever. The building and interior are beautiful with a masonry and wood exterior and lovely warm paneled interior, but it was completely empty on Sunday evening. Odd. The server was friendly, but the bartender leaned across the empty bar, bored and on his phone. We took a booth which was a little tattered initially in a charming way. The taxidermied moose was sporting a MAGA hat and there was a blue line flag wooden sign hanging. These signs threw off the vibe and made me feel unwelcome here. Owners take note: maybe keep your weird politics to yourself and focus on the food. I ordered the veal schnitzel - cutlet was a decent size but everything was a little soupy and mushy for the price. Sipped a yuengling from the draft. Mid. Empty restaurant with lackluster food at a higher price point + weird politicking on your guests? I think not. Sad, because it looked like it was a nice place at one time. Maybe new owners can right the ship? read more

The food was good! I loved the menu, a nice change from standard American and fast food. The service was great someone was always around to offer more drinks or tidy our table. The drinks were effective and tasty! I will return read more

Another Bayonne staple. I grew up coming here as a kid and it remained a favorite into adulthood. This place was on our food list, as we moved away, and wanted to hit up classic Bayonne spots. My friend put me on to the the steak sandwich a few years ago. It's an open faced sandwich served over buttered toast. I feel like a 1950s housewife eating this. It's like pure butter. Phenomenal. It's served with fries, but I always sub for the garlic potatoes. You have the option of soup or salad for a side. And of course, the onion soup is an absolute must. read more

I hope when I'm in Bayonne again, I look at this review and remind myself to never return. Why the fuck did I get adventurous and want to try something new and picked this place ? I'm beyond annoyed. The bartender who was here for 18 years greeted me with "what can I get for you" without giving me a menu and not even a hello. If you worked here for that long, then you know it's my first time here....change your greeting and be more welcoming. I ordered the Stella draft. The taste of the beer was off - please clean the beer spouts. And the Stella was somewhat flat and was NOT cold. It was weird. The lobster roll was the worst I've ever had. No seasoning at all and the lobster roll was doused in mayo and there were more scallions and peppers (or tomatoes), whatever the fuck that was) than actual lobster I was offended, to say the least. On my way to a different restaurant because I'm still hungry. Wtf was that? read more

Had to check this place out, it looks so magical from the outside. On inside even more, you are transported to a different time or a different country. The waiters were super nice. Not busy at all at 6 on a Thursday. Other reviews say this place is small but there is about 7 tables in the front and like 10 tables in the back, maybe it seems small when it's busy on the weekend. We got some signature cocktails that were on a menu at the booth. No prices but then we when we got the bill the milk way was $13 and the white wolf was $9. Both drinks were amazing. They got me very happy tipsy. And you really taste the pecan in the white wolf and the chocolatey creamy goodness in the Milky Way. We split the onion soup and the filet mignon. The onion soup for $8 was reasonably priced for the amount of cheese and soup they give. It was the best we both ever had. The flavor was so balanced and not too salty. The bread is under the cheese and the cheese tasted so good and gooey. The filet mignon had a good char and flavor but about 2 oz of it was grizzle, it was not center cut either. The spinach was amazing though, creamy but still felt like you were eating a vegetable. I would definitely come back again and try some of the other food like the corn beef. I also want to get those drinks again. This place was a nice warm hug on a rainy day! read more

Hendrickson's Corner is the definition of a local pub where everyone knows your name. Great food, great service, and great atmosphere.

So we decided to go local in Bayonne. Hadn't been to Hendricksons in a while Place was fairly empty so we got seated quickly. My meal was the worst dinner I've ever had. Totally overcooked and over fried Will never go back there again read more

Not bad, or actually pretty decent! Charming old spot, a bit dusty and dark-definitely a townie place, and none the worse for that. You get the impression that if you came here twice you'd be considered a regular. Great unsweetened iced tea. The Canadian bacon was actually pork belly, fried crispy and served with ketchup-a herby vinaigrette would be better to go with the fatty meat. Tasty but not Canadian bacon. Excellent lobster rolls-nice chunks of lobster meat, a mustardy mayo bound it together with crunch provided from the celery. House made chips needed salt, which you almost never see! Nice pickle spear too. Only a split top roll was lacking. The bartender sat us and took our drink orders, and the pleasant waitress took it from there. Nice lunch overall! read more

Please visit for a great experience and meal and there deserts are also great! read more

AMAZING local spot. A previous reviewer hinted that it seems like the kind of place where if you go twice you become a regular. That is spot on. The old -school vibe is great. It is a very old fashioned place that is very comfortable and not pretentious at all. The people are all from nearby, and seem to be very familiar with the menu and what is on tap. Not to worry, though ... everyone is super friendly even if you are new. I can attest to that from my recent visit, and before I go any further, I"ll provide the spoiler alert that I will definitely be going back. The food: We ordered the cheesesteak egg rolls and they were phenomenal. The unexpected surprise was the homemade ketchup. Homemade ketchup! As it turns out, they take great care in all their ingredients, and this has a little spice to it. Not to worry, they also have the Heinz if you prefer. The burgers were on point. Made fresh, and cooked the way we asked. The wings were awesome too. I plan on getting the steak next time, or something German. read more

My girlfriend and I came here for dinner on a weekday evening. It was our first time trying this place. We arrived pretty early in the night, around 6pm, and it wasn't crowded at all. We were able to get a booth table right away. While looking over the menu, we ordered a glass of wine and a beer. For our meals, we went with 2 of there more famous dishes ordered here; the sauerbraten and sliced steak sandwich. Both of these meals were delicious. I especially enjoyed the sauerbraten, as the gravy covered over the meat was really good. The steak sandwich was cooked medium, which wad perfect, and just overall tasted great. We both enjoyed our meals and experience here. They have lots of menu items to chose from, and we would definitely come back to try some more items. read more

So I called in a order for pickup and once we arrived the bar had a couple people sitting at the end of the bar so me and my friend sat at the other end of the bar only for the bartender to come up to us and tell us he is going to need the seat for other people we got up and no one even sat down. Will never go back again but the girl host was very nice. read more

Last time I came here was 12 years ago. Nothing really changed. The interior looks the same. It has an old school feel to it. I came here for St. Patrick's day. I heard they have the best corned beef and cabbage in Bayonne. I have to agree, it was delicious. The food came quickly but it took half an hour for the waitress to come to my table after we finished dinner. I will come back when it is not a busy. read more

Gf birthday. She wanted steak. Longhorn was packed so I googled steak house. We drove over to Hendrickson's. What an old world charm inside. German decor. We started with drinks. Excellent variety. For a buck fifty more we had salads instead of soup. Then we both had 12 ounce new york shell steaks. Perfection and a thing of beauty. Came with broccoli and garlic potatoes. They were so good. All in all a perfect night. read more

Hendrickson's Corner - Bar decore, tasty drinks. - American Near Me - Bayonne, New Jersey

I liked this restaurant fo many years with prior owner, but now it closes way too early with the new owners . The food last time in 2022 went was not very good as was pork served as chicken by waitress who insisted was right. I then got through she was incorrect. They close much earlier then ever did as must be there by 8:30 as of 2022. I would consider a return if they close later and staff more attentive. I loved this restaurant for many years. read more

Bury me under their floorboards- the food is THAT good. We stopped in for date night and were blown away. The steak, egg rolls, potatoes, wings, and the strudel were all perfect. The vibe is great and the service was excellent. It's pricy but the food earns every penny. We will be regulars. read more

The place has changed a lot. Used to be great German food. Now is just average Bayonne Italian food.

Hendrickson's Corner - GONE. i didn't eat it but the beast next to me did in 2.5 seconds. - American Near Me - Bayonne, New Jersey

I went there for the 1st time & i will never go back again. I ordered sliders, which was supposed to come with bacon onions steak sauce. It had nothing on it. Our table was sticky & the service was rushed. But we let it go. When we paid our bill the waitress just grabbed the $$ & disappeared. She didn't ask if we wanted money back. We waited for our change for a long time. I finally had to ask another waitress to get her & our change. I don't like feeling ripped off or having someone else decide how much I'm tipping. She was lucky to get a tip at all & we didn't complain to the manager read more

Great place for a nice dinner and a beer. My husband an I always enjoy this place. What more can I say? read more

As soon as you walk into Hendrickson's, you can immediately tell it's a local favorite. Everyone sitting at the bar seems like it's their second home and the ambience has an old-school Irish pub feel. The owner introduced himself to our table within minutes and began recommending things to try, but not before asking us what drinks we wanted (you can't go to a place like this and not have a beer). Sit at your table for even five minutes and you already know it's a place where their primary concern is you wanting to come back again and again. First impressions are important. The food definitely didn't disappoint. We had a round of appetizers that included French onion soup (with extra thick melted cheese), Canadian bacon strips, loaded potato skins, and garlic wings that you can tell had a homemade sauce. For dinner, the group at our table had mini burger sliders, steak, a turkey burger, and a Philly cheesesteak (with a perfect bread and the cheese and onions melted into perfection). I had wiener schnitzel with potato pancakes and red cabbage. With such a wide variety of food types, it was incredible that they managed to nail each one. To top it off, we finished with a warm brownie with ice cream and an apple strudel that is a must try. On his way out the door, the owner asked how our night was and talked to us for a bit. When he discovered it was someone at our table's birthday, he immediately took it off the bill and said it was on him. It's so rare you can find a place with the same charm it probably had in 1925 but Hendrickson's did it with a flare. From the wait staff to the food to an owner who isn't just present but actively involved in the business, this is a place for the whole family to relax and be yourself. read more

Oh, burgers are magnificent, plus their hot dinner menu is fabulous. I think I could eat there everyday. The soft music is delightful and the booths give you more than enough room. The service was spot on. Didn't have to wait long for our meal and there were a lot of customers. The staff was busy but always polite. We even got to take doggybag home for later cause it was so much food. Had a wonderful time. Will definitely be back for more.I rated them 4 of 5 only because every time the side door opened we got a blast of cold from outside. Be aware of where you sit. Fun place, clean, polite staff. read more

Had a good dinner date here with the husband the other night. My reviews might not be as much fun because I'm low-carbing for now, so bear with me, lol. Our appetizers were beef tips in garlic sauce, and a meatball quesadilla. I liked the beef tips but I like my beef more rare. My husband loved the quesadilla, which was part of the specials menu that evening. He wound up bringing half of it home. I ate the beef tips but eschewed the toast points under them. We ordered burgers, too. I had bacon and cheese, he had the works on his. He had a Blue Moon and I had a diet coke. The burgers are served with a generous portion of steak fries, which I didn't eat but the husband said they were good. Service was very good, they were very attentive. It was a very nice night out despite the awful weather outside. They have a lot of great beer on tap. read more

My wife and I went here for a low-key wedding anniversary. We were fortunate that there are outdoor dining options available. Hendrickson's Corner has several tables outside for dining. The food and the service was outstanding. We had the spaetzle with bacon as an appetizer, wiener schnitzel and veal francaise. We were treated to delicious cheesecake and apple strudel. The drinks were well made and the restaurant appeared to have many local regulars. It was a great evening and we will definitely be back. read more

Decided to revisit this old favorite restaurant. The ambiance has not changed. It still has that feeling of old Germany and Bayonne memorabilia. The service was excellent. They are very attentive and friendly and professional. However the food that we used to love (especially the famous steak sandwich everyone craved)was a let down. The portions were small and what used to be presented so well and taste so delicious just wasn't. It was just OK and it used to be something you really enjoyed. Even our beers were warm and tasted old. But then the check came and quite honestly I am aware that prices have gone up but for what we got, it was not worth what we paid. Turned out to be a very disappointing evening. I doubt if I will go back again and have serious reservations about recommending it to someone looking for a good place to eat in Bayonne. I would've given this one star but our waitress and the really good steak fries bumped it up one star read more

Fabulous food and service. One of the best burgers I ever had. They have booths, but the place is very small. You must have a plan B because parking is terrible. The meters are two hours, but you have to get lucky. Worth the try. read more
