(Drank 09/17/2026 TH @ 5:00pm): Louise and Jerry created a fine neighborhood tavern for the city of…read moreHoboken! In my quest to explore the various cuisine scenes and things to do throughout Jersey City (specifically the Heights) and by extension nearby Hoboken, I crept into Louise And Jerry's Tavern for a quick pint or two after I dropped some dough at nearby Tunes Hoboken and before I met up with my friend for dinner. Located inside an 1880s former hotel building, it all started back in 1958 when Louise and Jerry Grieco (the tavern's namesake) rented the downstairs space when it was a Dutch sailor's bar called the Old Neerlandia. In 1959, they purchased it from the Schaeffer's family. At that point, the family business began first with Jerry as the lone bartender until health issues took that away from him. So, Louise stepped in until sadly she suffered a stroke in 1994. Louise's sister, Mary Romano, took over, and to this day, it's been the Romano family who has kept the legacy alive. Would I raise a pint or two to cheers Louise and Jerry for their tavern!? PURCHASE(S) Guinness Draught Irish Dry Stout Beer 4.2% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Dark brown chocolate color, robust coffee roasty aroma, heavy body, balanced chocolate coffee flavor, mouthcoating finish, and full coffee roasty aftertaste. One of my favorite beers! Yuengling Brewery Traditional Amber Red Lager Beer 4.5% ABV 16floz Draft ($7.00): Copper red color, malty sweet aroma, low body, malty sweet flavor, clean finish, and smooth malty sweet aftertaste. A favorite I always had trouble pronouncing! SERVICE I was casually greeted by two young women behind the bar as I approached, queried about their happy hour specials (MO-FR 1:00pm-7:00pm $1.00 off any draft), ordered my first pint, and found an empty corner in the back. I returned to the bar with my empty glass in hand, ordered my next pint, and simply closed my tab as the post-work crowd started to billow in. All was simple and straightforward which was fine with me - cheers! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance): This was a moot point since it was minutes away from Tunes Hoboken (or, slightly flat-to-downhill leisurely walk 30-minute distance from my friend's place). No parking lots in sight, there seemed to be plenty of spots along the main drag of Washington St. and all surrounding side streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE You carefully stepped down recessed stairs into a quaint one-floor layout where your immediate focus was on the large mahogany bar with plenty of stools, then to the exposed brick walls where a few items hung, the reflective tin ceiling, heavily-dated floor tiles, and a pool table and some tall tables in the back, along with the jukebox nd dart board. A decent amount of natural lighting filtered through the front and back glass windows while large electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were several TVs while a jukebox played music in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Louise And Jerry's Tavern was my kind of place with a "refined dive bar" feel (meant in a loving way), and every neighborhood would be so lucky to have such a watering hole to destress, chat with strangers, and grab a pint after work. The community I sensed as I observed from my back corner stool while patrons started coming in was beautiful as the bartenders knew them and people knew each other. The beer list was kept to a minimum, the liquor choices were varied enough to at least make the standards, outside food was allowed since there wasn't an onsite kitchen, and they were an openly pet-friendly bar, which was awesome! Plus, I always preferred to support small mom & pop businesses. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $14.50 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

It's tucked right around Franklin Social and one can confuse it for another apartment building, but instead you're moved up to the top floor where it feels like you're back in the 1800s, in a good way. A speakeasy, but on elevation. It's first come, first serve for most parties. There's one table for a party bigger than 4, but most are for couples. Very cozy tables with comfy seats and candles dimly lit to make it very cozy for a wrap to a date night. The cocktails were elegantly thought about too. Love the history behind the name and the drink menu was expansive, yet understandable. You can definitely get whatever fits your palette here with cocktails. We got the beauty in green & mint condition cocktails and loved both of them. We'll definitely come back, though likely keeping it to ourselves!!

In my quest to explore the various cuisine scenes throughout Jersey City and specifically the Heights, I made my way to Corkscrew Bar. I've had this on my bookmark list since I started visiting my friend a few years ago when she moved out here. I always loved a neighborhood bar (sports in this case) that also served food so I could hang with the local people. Would I pop a cork and celebrate this bar or say "screw it"!? PURCHASE Hackensack Brewing Beach Badge Pale Lager Beer 16floz Draft ($6.00 HH): Hazy amber color, citrusy hoppy aroma, low body, citrusy hoppy flavor, crisp finish, and citrusy hoppy aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=T5lE5A5q6kI_tZ_0etPJjw [ONION RINGS/STRAWS/STRINGS ALERT - 4.0 of 5.0 STARS] Onion Rings ($11.00): A medium basket packed with many rings of various sizes, these were hot, lightly golden browned, crunchy, and had some tendency to crumble when bitten into while the onion ring (not sweet Maui) stayed intact. Although they were on the oily side, they were pretty good, and the spicy tangy dipping sauce was a nice touch. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=O3mNUsKqhYIzWo0oAYRe-w Jersey Burger ($17.00): Their 8oz Pat Lafrieda burger topped with all-things Jersey - American cheese, with Taylor Ham, a fried egg and garlic aioli.

Sadly, it seemed that the young woman behind the bar was the only staff on hand. As she greeted me, I immediately ordered and received a beer, took a menu, and grabbed a seat outside on the patio. Minutes later, she came by, took my order, and provided me with table settings and such. About ten minutes later, all of my food appeared. She periodically checked on me as she cleared away the empty plates and bought more beer. Once I was ready, I went inside and settled up. It was a chillaxing easy day - thank you! PARKING (Street; N/A this instance) This was an easy flat 20-minute walk from my friend's place.
