JP didn't just run the bar at the beer hall. He made the whole afternoon. We had a big group, families, kids, grandparents, the whole mix. It was a full afternoon of food and drinks, and the kind of event where a lot of moving pieces have to come together for it to actually work. JP was the reason it worked. What stood out most wasn't the drinks. It was the kids. There were a lot of them, running around, excited, in the middle of everything. JP knew every single one of them by name before the afternoon was half over. Not in a performative way. He just made a point to learn who they were and made them feel like they belonged there as much as anyone else. He was checking in on them, getting them what they needed, keeping them engaged. Parents noticed. Everyone noticed. Beyond the kids, he was everywhere. Anticipating what people needed before they asked. Moving fast without ever seeming rushed. Making sure nobody was waiting, nobody was forgotten, and everybody was having a good time. The food, the drinks, the whole flow of the afternoon, it all ran smoothly because JP was paying attention to all of it. My sister-in-law's celebration was exactly what it was supposed to be. A big part of that is JP. If you are booking an event here, request him specifically. You will not regret it.​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Honestly, I don't know what piece of rubbery crap I'm eating here! Honestly, I was trying to make new cool friends around me at this bar while watching the World Cup and I was kicked out in front of everybody by this big security guard with the strong beard in a very embarrassing way (RIGHT AFTER I JUST BOUGHT 20$ worth of this rubbery, plastic bread crap where I can't even chew the bread, I'm being very honest) just because I did bring a drink to the bar. Yes, it's my fault, yes I did. It was a mistake. Instead of kicking me out, they should have just asked me to throw it away or put it away in my bag instead of pushing me out so drastically, so inhumanely, so embarrassingly in front of people in the middle of enjoying a game. People literally get kicked out of the bar for brawling if they're causing fights. I wasn't doing any of that. My food just literally arrived on the table, when we were trying to have fun watching the world cup and for heaven's sake, I really did buy such an expensive amount of something from the bar! It's not like I wasn't buying anything! And the guard even peered over my husband's shoulder extremely closely while my husband was trying to pack away the food. Even the other bartender/waiter who just served me food wanted to steal away my ketchup sauce (this stingy, really??) just because we were being kicked out. My husband has a sickness, his movements are slow, so when the guard had to be so close to us to intimidate us (instead of giving us some space to pack) that really incensed me, so I said to him, "My husband has a sickness! WAIT A MINUTE AND BACK OFF!" This huge guard got his ego hurt, he trailed us to the streets, he wanted to fight but was too afraid to do anything when he saw many policemen just at the corner, and I don't know what got into me but I spouted and yelled at him, "Man, this is my ONLY time to have fun in America and you spoiled it!! GO FUCK YOURSELF!! AND DON"T FORGET TO FAP YOURSELF WHILE THINKING ABOUT ME!!" And I spouted more and drew a lot of attention. He looked really embarrassed, powerless and retreated back. He didn't know who he was messing with. And I can tell anybody who witnessed this including the cops were on my side. :) America has turned into a really mean state. People simply just can't have fun anymore or at least be treated justly and with some respect. Everybody is there to make money and rob you, then kick you out immediately without enjoying the time eating there. I could have put away the drink so easily, and on top of that, I did just bought some expensive something from there!! DON"T come to this inhumane bar (that's always completely empty anyway except for World Cup days). read more

Super fun spot to watch a big game! They have a bunch of TVs and major game day specials, such as $25 for 20 wings! Food was a little slow, and the wings were a tad dry, but still so fun!! Lively adult vibe perfect to cheer on the Knicks! read more

I've been to Hudson Hall plenty of times before, but after another great experience recently, I figured it was finally time to show it some love. A group of us went during the NBA Finals on a Thursday night, and we were able to grab a table without much trouble. It was definitely busy, but thanks to their beer hall-style seating, it's never hard to find space, even with a crowd. The shared tables never feel too crammed and work well whether you're with a group or on a date. We went with their game day special, 20 wings for $25, and ended up getting two orders. Honestly, it's one of the better food deals around for watching sports with a group. The wings were solid, and we kept the drinks flowing all night. I had a few Moscow Mules that were really well made, and the beer selection never disappoints. Food-wise, Hudson Hall consistently delivers. I had the shrimp tacos this time, which were really good, and we also split some cheeseburger egg rolls that hit the spot. I've had the pierogies on past visits, and those are great too. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu, it's all legit, especially for a sports bar. Service is always friendly and efficient, and splitting the bill is super easy, which is a big plus when you're out with friends. Whether you're looking to watch a game, hang with a group, or even go on a casual date, Hudson Hall is one of the best spots in Jersey City for good food, drinks, and vibes. read more

Hudson Hall - SHRIMP TACOS - Beer Bar Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Not a fan of the benches as they are very uncomfortable. Thank goodness there were a few chairs so we were ultimately able to move to a different table. Music was boring and commercial type music - nothing that moves the soul. Very little diversity. Quite homogeneous which was surprising for the area. Food and drinks were average. Service was friendly and attentive. Enough TV's for the game. If you want to catch a game with your bro's this is a good spot. Not my vibe at all. read more

This place is a joke. I knew they over charge for drinks but a buddy of mine insisted on checking it out so I decided to give it another go. I was drinking straight Jameson. They charge for ice and also charge extra for ordering a drink neat. Riddle me why ice and especially why is there a $3 fee for ordering a neat. You literally add nothing except the liquor. Did you do extra work or pump extra oxygen to enhance the flavor? Out of their minds. A million other places to go to around there that don't charge you for ice or air in your cup. read more

Hudson hall is a cool sports bar. I like their ambiance it has a laid back atmosphere and vibe. Great spot to come after work and decompress and just enjoy a beer and some appetizers. They have a good selection of food. We ordered mozzarella sticks, a margarita, beer, and two tequila shots, and a pasta to share. I like their happy hour specials. The mozzarella sticks were nice and cheesy. The pasta was great as well. I would definitely recommend this sports bar and would like to come back to enjoy more of their menu. 10/10 rec read more

Hudson Hall - IPA - Beer Bar Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

I visited Jersey City for a work event. After arriving, I was looking for a place to grab dinner and stumbled upon Hudson Hall. The restaurant had large tables and a bar. Since I was solo for this visit, I opted for the bar. There were large TVs playing sports. My visit was during the MLB Wild Card round so I mostly watched the Tigers and Astros game. The bartender provided great service throughout my visit. I chose the Hudson Hall Lager, which was discounted for Happy Hour. The beer was chilled and refreshing, though the flavor was only okay. For my meal, I selected the Crispy Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich. The chicken and avocado tasted great, but the bread was difficult to chew. Overall it was a good visit. This is a great place to watch sports and enjoy a frosty beverage. read more

The Ambiance is perfect for watching your favorite sports team. Plenty of TVs throughout. The service was pretty good. Our server was very attentive and friendly. My only gripe is that I wished that our waitress told us about "no free refills" on drinks. Learned that the hard way. The food was pretty good. The BBQ Chicken Sliders had bones inside of them. The Hot Chicken Sandwich was ok. read more

for a quick drink during happy hour, this place does the job. Plenty of space inside and the drink options are more than plenty. Prices are also solid. There are tons of screens to watch sports too. I arrived around 4pm on a weekday and obviously there were only a couple people here. I'm sure it fills up later in the evening and especially on the weekends where people are surely utilizing those long tables and such. Very communal environment of sorts. Bathrooms had an antique feel to them, but were fairly clean. read more

The food is great and the staff is better. But Jesus H Christ. The Guinness. How cheap of a place do you have to be to start serving the short pours of Guinness. I've been around long enough to remember when they were doing it right. Such a disappointment read more

He made food recommendations. The short ribs and pulled pork sandwich. Really tasty. This place was packed. College football games on monitors. Music was pumping. Nice vibe and a beautiful day to venture out. Parking is hard to find ‍ jersey city has a food festival today too. But definitely recommend read more

Always buzzing. One of the nicer sports bar around the city. (I wish they played Indian sports like cricket as well). With major sporting events the lines go really far. Good collection of beers, slightly expensive American bar food. The service in general is quick too. read more

Drinks were food, bartenders and were friendly. Food was just ok, but it's a pretty good vibe overall.

Stopped by here to kill sometime before heading to the restaurant for dinner. This place has a gigantic hall with TV's all over the wall and through the small hallway to the left you can go to a smaller bar seating area with a couple of TVs as well. This smaller area is accessible from the street too. We ordered a beer and a cocktail. The beer was on the expensive side, but I just assumed "NY"prices and the service was good. Definitely a good place to come watch sports and chat with friends read more

Ordered takeout from here recently. They have a wide selection on their menu, and it spans from traditional bar food to lighter, healthier items. Our party had the nachos, chicken Caesar wrap, grain salad and fish tacos. Everyone loved what they got. The staff was friendly and helpful as well. read more

Really like this place! FOOD: 4 stars Have only tried the wings and French fries. The buffalo wings were SUPER TASTY, highly suggest ordering the buffalo ones. Fries were ok. SERVICE: 5 stars I thought the service was great. Everyone was extremely nice, our waitress was very good at checking in on if we needed anything, and food came out in a very timely manner. VIBE: 5 stars Great vibe overall! We went to watch Euro cup and would go back! read more

Excellent beer on tap, incredible gator tots, well-cooked burgers and not-great service. In general, I would go here again but you can't be in a hurry or hope that sitting at the bar means you'll be served quickly or asked if you want anything else. Despite this, I have to give 4 stars for the quality of the tater tots alone. Like seriously good!!! read more

Came to Hudson Hall for the El Classico Soccer match. Really nice venue to watch sports and if I wasn't full I would get wings since they smell so good! $25 for 20 Wings (Game Day Deal for Major sporting events). Looking forward to going back for food/drinks for other games. read more

Vážně? Česky? Vůbec ne. 1. There is nothing Czech or European about this place. Everything is run on the mill. But somehow they all wear T-shirts saying "Czeched Out". It's dumb when they don't even have Czech beers on draft. 2. The bar is dirty - has food crumbs all over the place. They don't clean up each spot after the patron leaves, which is only one guy serving the bar, AND the tables. read more

Had a private party happy hour on a Friday night. Thank you sooooo much to the friendly bar tenders and security for keeping the vibes up! I have not had so much genuine fun in a long time. I appreciated the nearby bathroom, coat rack, and ample bar and seating space in the private event room. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a place to celebrate with a group! PS- the wings and French fries were a great combo read more

There's a Biergarten and a separate bar area (though the Biergarten also has their own bar area) so we opted to sit in the bar area as it was more brightly lit.

This beer garden is geared towards a Czech menu with lots of flavors to offer! A decent sized hall with bench and table style seating it is a fun spot to chill. With a nice tasty menu you will not be disappointed with your choice. The drink selection is also flavorful.

Coupled with friendly staff that are attentive and accommodating it adds to the experience. Get the pretzel! It comes out fresh to order and piping hot. You can't beat a hot fresh out of the oven pretzel with 2 dipping sauces. read more

Ambiance is open room, lots of TV's picnic tables - typical beer hall vibes. We went on a Mon night around 6pm - not busy. We ordered the pierogies as an app, a pastrami sandwich and a burger as our mains. The pierogies came with the sandwich and burger ( order Med well) . Pierogies were soggy and very greasy. It did look like they attempted to get a sear on them but maybe they sat too long? The burger was burnt on 1 side - not just alittle charred - but burnt. My husband did flag down the waitress and she took it back and they remade it and they did cook it MW which was a surprise. Sometimes the kitchen rushes a re-order and then the patron is SOL. My pastrami sandwich was pretty good - not dried out, Sweet potato fries were pretty good. Overall, not bad but I am not sure I could recommend unless you really just want lots of variety of beer. read more

This place was close by so we decided to check it out. It always seemed to be busy so we figured it was good. Overall it was okay. The ambiance was nice and it would be fun if you wanted to drop by and watch a game with some friends. It's a very casual restaurant, with long bench seating being the primary seating option. The food wasn't amazing, my favorite was the tacos. Even then, not the best tacos I've tried. The spinach and artichoke dip wasn't bad, it was just too cheesy and lacked a lot of spices but I really liked the chips, they tasted fresh and had a good crunch. The pulled pork sliders were dry, I personally didn't like them but my partner thought they were okay. The potato skins weren't bad but they got cold and hard really fast so if you want them to try them I would suggest eating them first. I have to say I was very excited to try the donut, which I saw all over Instagram. And it was delicious. The donut itself had a unique flavour a bit lemony. It was served warm and paired with the cold ice cream, it was such a yummy combination. I'm terms of the service, the servers were very nice and were really quick to bring our food out in the beginning. But once it got busy we had to wait a LONG time for water refills and for the bill. I think I would come back here for more donuts or for a drink, not sure I would get any of the food again. It would be really fun to come with a group of friends. read more

This review is based on one takeout order. I placed the order through Yelp at 7:00 a.m. Right before I entered work because I knew I would be hungry at 3:00 p.m. when I left work that day. I ordered the 3/4 lb order of pastrami. It was $20. Through Yelp, I chose the pickup time to be 3:00 p.m. At the end of my shift I walked to this place and the order was there waiting for me at 3:00 p.m. on the dot. The pastrami was delicious! Super tender and had a great peppery crust. They included pickled onions and pickles with mustard and barbecue sauce. I liked all the sides they gave but I like the barbecue sauce the best. I would definitely order from here again or return to have a beer inside. read more

Always good vibes at this place. Spacious sports bar/ beer garden with some good bites and good drinks and a DJ playing new and old hits. The drinks are a bit pricy for my taste. I'm talking like NYC Rooftop Bar pricy. Yikes! Definitely a great place to catch a game though. read more

We came in on a Tuesday for HH and it was pretty empty around 5pm. To start, we had some monthly cocktails, which are $9 off the HH menu. I believe it was a Penicillin for the month of January. BIL had their house lager, which he said was fine. We shared a large pretzel, which was piping hot and very good. Really hit the spot. I had a short rib sandwich with au jus. X had the schnitzel sandwich. I liked his sandwich better because it was nice and crispy and tasted super fresh. The short rib sandwich felt a bit heavier. The side salad my sandwich came with was delightful and I'm very glad I picked it because the entire meal is a very big portion. Service was very good and super efficient. read more

It's never easy accommodating a large group, but our server Ronald surely made it happen for all 14 of us. All of our orders came out correct, and he came around often to check on us. The place itself is ideal for large gatherings as they have long tables surrounded by big screen TVs. In terms of food, some of the meals were good, and some were just ok. When one of the workers found out we were celebrating a special occasion, we were given free doughnuts which I thought was very kind of them. Fluffy and warm that melted right in your mouth. I thought they were the highlight of the night. The music selection was old school hits which the group definitely enjoyed and sang along to. Overall, I would highly recommend for large groups! read more

Visited with a group of friends on a Saturday night. Made reservations online and we were seated right away. We ordered the 20 wings for 25 bucks and this worked out well for our group of four. We also ordered the crispy shrimp, buffalo flavored and chips and guacamole. Everything was great. There are multiple tv screens to watch all major sport networks. There were DJ's playing old hits. The only issue we ran into was that we were seated right under a heating vent and it became a bit uncomfortable. Overall, the venue worked out well for a night out with friends. read more

I was really disappointed in this place. Glad to see they had partitions in place so capacity was the same but we felt safe. Took about 10 minutes before the server came over and didn't seem interested in taking our order. The beers seem overpriced for the sizes we received. Food came out quickly and wasn't terrible. We got the Buffalo smoked wings and burger with cheddar and fries. The wings were good but could have used more sauce. The burger didn't have much flavor, good thing for the cheddar. A DJ set up as we were leaving playing club music which seemed out of place. He didn't have his mask pulled up. Someone on staff asked him to pull it up but he pulled it back down right after. read more
