I was in the neighborhood so I stopped by for some drinks outside with my dog. Drinks are fabulous and strong! The waitress was extremely friendly and nice. We ended up ordering some garlic Parmesan wings, which were crispy and delicious. Sat outside at the picnic tables in front, it was very relaxing. They even put a dish of water out for my dog! I will be back for a nice lunch sometime soon. read more

Your average local yolkle bar with some good pub grub. This place has been around for years and I remember being in high school and thinking it looked like a cool spot once I could finally drink hahahah They used to host bands but with covid things have changed up a bit. Hopefully in the future they can get back to that. Otherwise, it's a spot for a cold beer and decent fries and a burger. read more

Always a good place for a burger, Wings. My favorite is a chop antipasto salad One of my neighborhood favorites read more

This spot had gotten a bad rep back in the day... but times have changed & so has the bar! I've come here for years, during the day for meals inside & outside with my family, and at night with friends. Never a long wait for drinks, friendly staff, & good affordable food! All different types of live music on Saturday nights are also great time! If you're looking for a fun, casual time out, give them a try! read more

PJ's Restaurant - Snappahead performing live - Burgers Near Me - Baldwin Place, New York

See all

Was happy to find a place so close to me that had exactly what I was looking for, the basic burger and some fries. I found myself walking into a dark, dingy seedy-looking place that smelled like marijuana. Felt like Plankton when he ventured into that low-brow dive, looking for thugs to help him steal the Krabby Patty formula. It was the kind of place where the local rabble congregate to get stoned and talk about their court dates. As such, I did an about-face and got right back in my car and drove away. read more

Casual restaurant/ bar in Baldwin Place, NY with great service, great music and an out of this world brownie sundae! We stopped by to hear a little music and have dessert. Brownie sundae was unbelievably good. The band was talented and the vocalist was spot on. The bartender Anthony served our table and was attentive and friendly. read more

Chose PJs, or Patti and Jay, for lunch. First visit. Enjoyed burger platter, cooked exactly as requested with tasty onion rings. Many beers on tap including the fine Sam Adams, both lager and summer ale. Burger platter and a beer is $15 plus tax and tip. PJ's is better than it looks from the outside. Friendly service. Better than average bar food. Will return If you think this review with photos is useful, funny or cool, I'd appreciate ur feedback by clicking below. read more

Love the food. It tastes so good, and the staff are nice. I came from the Gordon Ramsay video.

Hmmmm, well HOW do I word this one? Well, for one, they DO have a decent selection of apps to choose from. Of course, being barfood, some may be greasy but that comes with the territory. Bartender paid close attention to the customers and their orders. Now, on the other hand, maybe a little too much. All too often saw her reach below the bar into a large white plastic medicine bottle. As another "coincidence" saw a customer say he had a headache, left briefly, and he returned(too fast for having bought it)a medicine bottle. Hmmm This place needs to be CONDEMNED and the ppl in it. DRUG HAVEN. MPD will soon be getting a tip! The class of ppl patronizing this bar should just congregate on the street where they belong read more

Bartenders are very friendly and so is the owner, Jay. I was never big into wings, but they are so amazing here! The homemade bleu cheese is the best I've ever had!! read more

Jay and Pattie have been there forever and are good people and the food and service is very good. Fridays and Saturdays usually are packed cause they have bands playing, and tuesday nite is half price of burgers, and Wednesday nite is half price on wings. What's there not to like? Regards, Bobby read more

I have been eating here for years. The food and prices are outstanding!! The service was great and an overall family vibe. Best local bands hand down! read more

I walked in pj,s last Tuesday and every Tuesday they have their half priced burger,s.They have the best burger,s around .The restaurant is a sport,s bar.They have live entertainment their .when go their ask about their entertainment schedule.Go their early in afternoon not to overly crowered.how I like it.They have a nice menu all of their other food is very good roo. read more

I stopped in for a burger based on the recommendation of a Yelp friend. Perhaps my expectations were too high, perhaps it was a bad day in the kitchen. Either way, I can't say this ranks among my top 10, even locally. Very pleasant afternoon chatting with the bartender and they have a wing special that I may try some other time. read more

Well... My husband and I just moved to the area and decided to check out this place. We walked in and it immediately smelled of cigars and cigarettes (strike 1). We sat down after being told we could sit wherever, and saw one waitress apologizing to a table of 10+ for all their wrong orders (strike 2). After waiting for ten minutes with no menu, acknowledgement, water, or even the sight of another employee besides the one waitress, one man from the large party said "I'd leave now if I were you, we've been here 90 minutes already." Strike 3. So... We left. read more

This hidden gem up Rt. 6 has the best bar food you can have! They take their food very serious, so it is always fresh and good. I've eaten here well over a dozen times and always try something new. There are also tables to sit down and eat at, if eating at the bar isn't your thing. I had their black & blue burger, which was topped with fried onions & blue cheese. I didn't want to move, that's how tasty this thing was. Steak is delicious, wings are fresh, pasta, burgers, everything is great. Beers are cheap, bartenders are friendly, TVs are flat screened, and atmosphere is chill. Dig it! read more

The place is fine and definitely gives you that hole in the wall feel that we all look for. Our bartenders were really nice but you definitely have some characters there. My wife and I just moved in the area and were checking out the local scene so we tried pjs for some drinks. The drinks and bartenders were fine but there was some random guy there legitimately trying to sell us a pack of newports he had just found on the floor. Not sure if he worked there or not but he was behind the bar talking to everyone. That is disgusting, but everyone around us seemed fine with it so maybe it's the norm. Not cool, not for me, no thanks. read more

It just gets better & better! Since my last review I've been back 3 times for lunch and tonight was dinner! Patti the co-owner came to our table and we talked food, plus when she found out I like Margaritas she made one personally for me that was "Smokin Goooood" We started off with wings (medium heat) which were plump & tasty with just the right amount of heat. We also had corn chowder that was totally homemade and delish. I had one of the specials a chicken panini (Oh do I love their Paninis) with spinach, mozzarella and an awesome sauce. The Mrs. had Patti's Favorite Salad and added grilled chicken, fresh, plenty of food and totally healthy. My buddy who was celebrating an anniversary had the Firehouse Burger (Photos to follow) All were well prepared, fresh and tasty. This place absolutely has the best burgers around, not to mention awesome homemade onion rings! You'll have to go on your own, I won't be posting more, however, if you come in there's a chance I'll be there ;-) read more

Every time we have eaten at PJs has been a really good experience. The staff are super friendly and make you feel at home right away. The menu is a nice selection of burgers plus some standard pub food. The burger and panini selection is a nice mix of flavors- we've tried a few of each and have not been disappointed! The fries are always fresh, the meat is always juicy, the service always attentive and friendly. Oh, and the live music is definitely worth hanging around for...thumbs UP! read more

The place is great every time we come from Florida we come here. I haven't tried the food yet but jay the owner is great and Brad the bartender is nice. I will come back many times in future!!! read more

PJ's Restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Baldwin Place, New York

Possibly the most underrated restaurant I've ever seen. Most people I know who live in the area for decades have never even tried it. It is definitely a hole in the wall, dive bar type atmosphere but the food is really good and affordable. They do specials every day (1/2 price burgers on Tuesdays, for instance) and the service is usually very good considering how busy the waitresses are - usually there's only 1-2 waitresses for the entire place and at lunch time the lone bartender also waits tables. Some go-to options are the buffalo wings (easily the best wings in town), burgers (always cooked perfectly to order and very juicy) and nachos (huge portion). It's usually very empty when I go except on Tuesdays (for half-price burgers). The owner is usually present and she's very sweet - regularly checking in with customers and being excellent with kids. Definitely a no-frills place but awesome for a casual meal with the family at a very affordable price. read more

The first time I came here to get burgers I was blown away by how good they were. The second time I came here for burgers I was disappointed and dissatisfied. I don't mind paying $10+ for a burger when it's good. But when it comes out as mediocre as they have them here, i would at least like some fries with my burger. The taco burger is literally a burger with sour cream and salsa. ‍ I will say that their nachos are freaking delicious and worth it, though. read more

Good bar food. Ok beer selection. Friendly bartenders Nice low key vibe. Have not been there late night when bands play. read more

This place surprised me! The bar service was great and the drinks were excellent, but what really shined was the food. The burgers are incredible! Everyone in my group was very happy with what they ordered. Would definitely go back again! read more

Best wings in the area!! Go for wings on Wednesday to get a grear deal. Burgers are great too. Really surprised by how good it was. My dad always said bars have the best food & he's right...this place knows how to make some wings! read more

On the outside the place looks like a dive. My boyfriend and I ate here for lunch and I must say I am 100% going back. Food was very good and fresh. Lunch prices where cheap. I also noticed the inside of PJ's is very clean and I appreciated that a lot. read more

If I could give this restaurant a -1 star I would. The food was terrible. The pork in my pulled pork sandwich was fatty, chewy, and seemed like it was sitting around for days. My son's hamburger was obviously frozen and came out burnt. Thank god he is 5 and doesn't know what a good burger tastes like. At least he enjoyed his meal. My daughter didn't touch her microwaved Mac & cheese. My wife and I were nauseous the entire night. We will NEVER be going back. The only thing nice I can say is everyone was very nice and our waiter was very good. read more

Took a chance on a Wednesday evening. My boyfriend loves wings so it worked out in our favor since Wednesday is 1/2 wings! After reading several reviews we went with the raved about burgers. He got a Taco burger and it was cooked perfectly. He even said it's the best burger he has had in a long time! I had the California burger (turkey) with cheese and it was nice. I couldn't decide on waffle fries or onion rings so the server made it easy and gave me 1/2 and 1/2! I felt like a kid in a candy store (it's the little things). It's quaint inside, a smaller dining in area with a larger bar area. They have a pool table and several large screen televisions. Wings were plump and delicious! We will def return to this little gem! read more

Food was decent bar food. The burger hit the spot , but nothing blew me away. Good service on a quiet weekend afternoon !

Enjoyed the Hot Buffallo wings and the Teriaki wings. Service was great. The only issue was that we went to watch the game, but they have outdated and small TV's. Plus they played music instead of the audio for the game. So great place to go eat. Probably a great weekend bar...as I see they have live music...but a little focus on the sports fan for big games would go a long way. read more

Pjs has a great burger great Bar and live music. I always try to catch the band RONALD REGGAE when they play there. These guys are a awesome jam band. They're second set gets hopping even when I say I'm going to leave after a few songs I never do. read more

We've been here before and have had great burgers and steak but today our medium burgers were way over cooked. Service was still pleasant and the prices are right so we expect to be back. I was impressed by the Galaga game near the bar. I spent a small fortune on that game in my youth. It seemed to be calling out to me again, play me, play me, but I resisted. read more

I came here with my family spur of the moment for dinner. Definitely a convenient choice because there was no wait to sit, we could just pick a table anywhere and seat ourselves. The service was great in the sense that our waiter was very friendly and welcoming. The appetizers were large and tasty as well as our dinner choices. The only reason I took away 1 star from this review is because we waited a pretty long time for everything. It took about 15 minutes just to get our sodas & cocktails, it took another 25/30 minutes for appetizers-*wings & nachos* (we ordered our dinner when we ordered our appetizers) and then an additional 20 minutes for our dinner. However, when we finally did get to eat all of our food, none of it disappointed! I'd probably come here again but only for the bar and probably the nachos. read more

Go on the weekends when Kerri is there. She is AWESOME- best service I've ever had outside of NYC. And probably the best burgers EVER. Beats every $50+, foie gras, chi-chi burger you get in the city -- their Ba Da Bing Burger is to Ba Da Die For!!! Others I was with had the Turkey Burger, if you are feeling healthy - also very good, and the Firehouse Burger, which was sinful. Amazing find - so glad I ran into this place!!! This is definitely the best burger joint I've ever been to. Eat and enjoy! read more

Great place!! The wings and burgers are my favorite! Cook to perfection! I would have given 5 stars but when I ordered my second beer I did t get a fresh glass. Just a personal pet peeve. But the beer was cold and the wait staff is always friendly. Wayyyy better then typical bar food! And great nightly specials! read more

My husband and I have lived in Yorktown Heights for close to 9 years and PJ's is our go-to restaurant. It is one of our absolute favorite places to eat. Service is always attentive and friendly. The owners, Patti and Jay are warm and welcoming. Their burgers are the BEST. Always fresh, high quality meat and cooked to perfection. Another favorite is the Nachos Supreme made with homemade chili. Buffalo Chicken wrap, Grilled Monterey Jack, Potato Skins,... everything I have had has been delicious. I have to admit, I rarely stray from the above listed, since they are all so awesome. They also have various daily specials and have 1/2 price wing night and 1/2 price burger night. PJ's is a must-try restaurant and bar in the Yorktown area. read more

This place has the best food for the price anywhere near Somers or Mahopac. My son and I go there on Tuesdays whenever we are both free for the half-price burgers. Their burgers are excellent, and very affordable even at regular prices (mostly $8-$9), but on half-price Tuesdays you really get a deal (I actually feel so guilty I always tip the waitress really well to make up for feeling like I stole the food!). Their finger food and draft beer are very good, too - years ago, when I played sports locally, I used to go their afterwards with friends, and we'd pig out on potato skins, nachos, and the like. The atmosphere is very rustic - typical bar décor - but for affordable dining and great food PJ's can't be beat! I highly recommend them. read more

enjoy this bar. good food for lunches and music is great fun Friday or Saturday evening. crowd is nice, bands are hit and miss. staff if fun and fair. excellent for an upstate bar.. big downside, enjoy drinking then bathrooms down stairs. too many stairs with a buzz. read more

My boyfriend and I just moved in to the area and gave Pj's a try. I had the taco burger which I liked very much and my boyfriend had a melt which he wasn't thrilled with. He said it tasted "plain." My boyfriend went back again for 1/2 off burgers on Tuesday and he said his burger was great and loved that he had a beer and burger for $10. We plan on making this our place for a burger and beer. read more

I've been going to PJ's for a long time. It's pretty typical bar food, but the atmosphere is fun and they have live music, which is hard to find around the Mahopac area. Definitely worth a night out............ read more
