(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!!

I'm so glad I made the decision for my partner and I to come. And listen... I will absolutely be back, especially for that Hey Sweetie with sweet potato syrup. A masterpiece.

I had a few tough weeks. I learned sometime ago that my twin sons Bradley and Bryan (aka BNB) were having a hard time with my divorce from my ex-wife Cynthia. Bradley in particular has struggled, having recently been arrested for arresting a train conductor in Philadelphia. Am I a bad father? Am I a bad person? My ex-wife and I drifted apart. I wanted to start anew. But I am learning you can never leave behind what is in the past. But how do you also try to fix things in the future? I was driving in my Kia Soul trying to find answers. I ended up in Bayonne and Massa's. A bartender named Mike poured me a Sammy and let me sit in silence. I can't change the past. I can control the future. All I can do is live in the now, and that is the best way for me to help my estranged twin sons. I would recommend Massa's Tavern to anyone trying to get out from the shadows from their past in order to become a better father.

And there are no problems. Today, I visited at 1:15 am, because the website says the bar closes at 2am, and the doors are already closed! I've never had a problem getting in before 2am until now. The only reason I arrived so late is because I was stuck in NYC waiting for the path train and taking the long 30+ minute ride. I was trying to find out when the doors are closed and the guy wouldn't even open the door to have a proper conversation. It goes without saying, but security should treat patrons like they want to be treated. I find some of them to be very rude when walking around the club to monitor the crowd. They should be able to move around unnoticed. Not pushing people out of the way. And please don't post a BS response about "this is our policy," because that should be stated on the website. Other people were trying to get in also, and two of them were women that needed to use the restroom.

Taco Bar is such a fun environment, ive been here plenty of times and always have a good time. I…read morefeel after about 5 visits, there are still things that they need to work out. first and foremost, the service. everytime i come here, no matter what time of the day or what day, there is basically the same person working here. this might not seem like an issue, but i feel bad because this place gets PACKED especially on weekend nights. the same person is always trying to hold down the place, but the service suffers (not their fault, i hope management comes up with a better plan). food always comes out slowly, and you gotta wave down or wait for the 1 bartender/server. the person who holds it down does the best to their ability, i dont think they do their job bad at all. the food has gone through so many transitions. the menu keeps getting smaller and smaller. although i hated how small the menu got eventually, i kinda get it. its a fun bar atmosphere and im sure recent inflations have caused some issues with ingredients so i appreciate the simple menu. where the food has kinda lost my interest is the actual flavor and sizing. overall everything is fairy bland, over cooked or undercooked. guac is bland. shrimp tacos are incredibly small and bland. the churros i have gotten 2 times and theyre always over fried. i miss their chicken tacos, i remember those were pretty good! as far as drinks, i think think thats where this place shines. the frozen magaritas are a must get! ive had various flavors and theyre always tasty and strong. beer selection is basic, but come here for their mixed drinks also. they make them well too. also something im confused about, i always got told to go to CAVAO for the bathroom, but when i was here last week my friend used the bathroom in Tacobar. was that illegal or a special occasion? who knows lol. they have ample outdoor seating. so come on down for some amazing drinks, good atmosphere and munch on some snacks.
