HOBOKEN: If you are looking for "the spot" with unbeatable Manhattan skyline views, eclectic eats, and great drinks, look no further than Pier 13 Hoboken! Located on the Hudson River, this seasonal outdoor waterfront beer garden welcomes leashed, friendly pups everywhere except the grass area. Grab a seat, take in the views, and enjoy bites from a variety of food trucks alongside cocktails, beer, and other refreshing drinks. The vibe is lively with events like Happy Hour specials, Adoption Days, and plenty of fun pop-ups. IDs are checked at the entrance, but guests under 21 are welcome as long as they are with a parent.

I loveee a Sunday afternoon at Pier 13! What's not to like? Sunshine, drinks, boats going by, a DJ, food trucks and games! Pier 13 is family-friendly during the daytime and by night the crowd changes. They have a two bars on sight as well as a handful of food trucks. The key is to get here early mainly to find parking and also if you want to get a good seat.

Really nice outdoor casual spot for drinks and bites. I really enjoyed the city lights as the sun was setting, while sipping on a drink. They have food truck style food, and a bar with pretty much anything you crave! Great spot to meet up with friends after work

Beautiful ambience

Great place to enjoy while on the Hudson River overlooking the Manhattan skyline. Rocking DJ, variety of food trucks, free games, alcohol & mocktails, and a Beautiful breeze. Can you say perfect?

Had a great time at Pier 13 recently. The views of the city are fantastic and we loved the overall ambiance. Please bring your IDs, some cash for ordering from food trucks and also check opening/closing hours. Area is super clean, staff is friendly, multiple drink counters and there are plenty of food choices from multiple food trucks. It's also kid-friendly, making it a perfect spot for families. We always have great time and can't wait to visit again!

I love Pier 13! I recently moved here and every weekend that people have visited I've made sure to make a stop here. The views are beautiful, they have great food truck options (make sure to bring cash - not all take cards), they play good music and the overall vibe is super chill but fun. It gives a similar vibe to a vineyard or beer garden, children friendly for the parents with FOMO! Drinks are pricey but it's worth it for a quick stop.

Waterfront beer garden, sign me up. I spent a lovely Saturday here a few weeks ago. There are numerous food trucks at the entrance to the pier and an outdoor bar at the far end. We grabbed some delicious tacs and found seats at the outdoor bar. We spent about 4 hours here, enjoying the views, much and the people. The vibes were on point, and the waterfront views were unmatched. If you haven't visited Pier 13 yet, check it out before the warm weather disappears. From JC, you can the Tonnelle bound Lightrail to 9th St and walk over. PATH/Lightrail to Hoboken and jump on the 126 bus to Washington & 13th St. Traveling from NYC, take the Midtown 39th St Ferry to 14th Street in Hoboken, which puts you one pier over from Pier 13.

It's January! Pier technically closed. You can walk through the pier and enjoy the beautiful views!

Great spot and so different! It's nice having an area that gives off summer vibes (especially since you don't have roof tops in Hoboken). Food trucks are delicious and the drinks are outstanding. The only issue--the volume of the speakers. We went at 1PM and the music was PUMPING it made it quite hard to talk to friends because the speakers are located on the fence right behind you (at table level). Seems to be a bit more quiet towards the end of the pier.

Fun, chill, colorful outdoor pier in North Hoboken with phenomenal Manhattan skyline views! I've been to Pier 13 a few times and the vibes change I think depending when you come visit. It's quieter/calmer earlier in the evening and during the day. I came last night around 9pm and it was more of a scene with a DJ blasting club music. It's a cool spot with a bar at the end and a variety of food trucks. Sometimes finding a table can be challenging. I'll definitely be back though bc it's unique, the views are something else, and overall, it's very pleasant when the weather is nice.

I absolutely loved Pier 13, it is a great place to enjoy the scenery, play games, take cute pictures, and enjoy great food and drinks. I had the best watermelon margarita and pizza and enjoyed a great summer date night! Looking forward to another great summer in 2024 at the pier :)

Lovely time here at Pier 13. Parking, as within the entire Hoboken area, is tough. So unless you plan on spending $$ on a closer parking lot or maybe a bit cheaper a little walk away, you may want to consider public transportation. We arrived at about 1:30 pm on a lovely Saturday and the place wasn't as crowded as expected. Our ID;s were checked, not as a requirement as there were kids there, but just in order to get a band so that you can purchase alcohol while on site. There are lots of small tables, picnic-style bench tables, and even some lounge chairs toward the end of the pier. Drink prices were what you'd expect from a place like this in the area...$7 for canned beer, $9 for 16 oz. drafts, $10 canned cocktails, $15-20 cocktails. I believe there are mid-week happy hour specials which may be much more worth the trip. There are a few food options there but we didn't try any of those. Outside food and beverages are NOT permitted. Smoking and/or Vaping are also prohibited. The Pier ofcourse offers some lovely views of midtown Manhattan, especially the HUdson Yards area. Its a great way to spend a day.

A great time was had at pier 13. On a beautiful day the pier can be a lovely escape from hectic city life. I arrived on sunday afternoon around 1pm so nice and early to get a table and grab drinks and food before the crowd came pouring in. Glad we did that because it def gets jam packed. Lots of seating and little games scattered along the pier! Perfect selection of food trucks! Tacos, wings, pizza, lobster and empanada trucks!! Oh and ice cream too! Drinks are pricey BUT the frozen ones were full of alcohol for 16 bucks! I def didnt need another! Beautiful backdrop of NYC of course!! Beware parking is tough if your driving in. May be better to take an Uber! Overall great day on the water!! Def will return before the weather changes.

“It's a little over priced ($7 for a can of beer, $11 for sangria, and $11 for drafts.) The sangria wasn't really good.”

The bar is super cute, beautiful interior. I wouldn't recommend for happy hour- martinis are tiny…read more(should have ordered a regular drink, it was good though!) , food was very mid. Our bartender was super nice, would probably go back for drinks but happy hour was not worth it.

Bar Bonobo is a great little cocktail spot worth seeking out! We were referred by a server at…read moreGeorgie's just down the street, and I'm so glad we took the recommendation. Creative cocktails, a great bartender, and a space that transitions beautifully from daytime drinks to moody evening vibes. We'll absolutely be back! The vibe: We stopped in around 4-5 PM on a Saturday for pre-dinner cocktails. The front gets lovely natural sunlight and has a small bar with high-tops, while the back opens into a moodier lounge. Great atmosphere without feeling overly pretentious. I can imagine it gets even better in the evening, so that's next on our list. The cocktails: * No Smoking Please: A mezcal cocktail with a little heat and warm vanilla notes. I was surprised by how much I loved this one! * Spicy Paloma: A great option if you like a little kick with your tequila. * Bartender's choice gin cocktail: I can't remember exactly what was in it, but it was incredible. Always a good sign when you trust the bartender to get creative and they deliver * Surprise shots to wish us a happy anniversary were a thoughtful gesture! Service: Our bartender was fantastic. Great banter, easy conversation, and clearly knew how to make a great drink. That personal touch made the experience even better. Bonus points: They serve popcorn to snack on, which is such a fun little touch with cocktails. Bottom line: Creative drinks, personable service, and a space with plenty of character. Food being served looked great, though we didn't order anything. Perfect for pre-dinner cocktails, but I'm already looking forward to coming back for the evening atmosphere. Definitely worth adding to your cocktail rotation!
