    Good local dive bar to grab a couple drinks in Pompton lakes. Cold beer and friendly bartenders.

    I had my husband's 70th birthday party at River of Beer and it was fantastic! They have a separate…read morebuilding with a really nice room overlooking the river on one side and the fire pit/main restaurant on the other The room itself is warm & inviting with lots of wood, big windows, high ceilings and the tables can be set up any way you want. We had a cocktail party for about 35 people at high tops and it was excellent (plenty of room for dancing, etc) The food was delicious, prices are very reasonable and the staff were great! I highly recommend having any kind of party there! I can't say enough about Erin who was the event manager. She worked with me for months making sure that everything is going to be perfect. I'm sure I was driving her crazy at several points but her patience was exceptional and her management & organization skills are incredible! She also is a tech wiz (at least compared to me) and helped me set up a playlist for the party on a Bluetooth system and a video loop of photos of my husband to play on the TVs. She was there the whole night along with a bartender and runner and everything was as smooth as can be. I was totally relaxed knowing that she was taking care of all the details! Thank you so much, Erin! The party would not have been a terrific success without you! Definitely check out River for your next party!

    Located on Ringwood Ave. in Haskell, Kitchen and Beer Bar prominently stands amongst its nearby…read moresurroundings in the downtown section of Wanaque (Haskell and Wanaque are basically the same town, it's a very odd history). With warmer days expected now that spring is in full swing, Kitchen and Beer Bar has outdoor seating as an option for its guests. Inside dining is on the smaller side, so it's in your best interest to beat the crowds on busy nights. I have eaten here a handful of times over the last two years or so and have nothing but positive things to say. The food is always hot and fresh (even with takeout). The whole staff is very nice and helpful upon your arrival. And for any sports fans out there, there are plenty of TVs playing sports games around the room, giving you another reliable option if you were looking to lounge at a bar for a while and watch some games. I definitely recommend this restaurant/bar to anyone looking for a good American dish with sports bar vibes inside.

    Let me be honest -- the service here can be a bit hit or miss depending on the day. But the food?…read moreThat more than makes up for it. I genuinely cannot visit without ordering the buffalo garlic parm bone-in wings. It's a commitment at this point. The flavor combination sounds like it shouldn't work, but trust me -- it absolutely does. Crispy, saucy, and completely addictive. They're the reason I keep coming back. Beyond the wings, the specials are always worth checking out. They rotate regularly and never feel like an afterthought -- each one is something different and genuinely tasty, which keeps every visit feeling fresh. The outdoor seating area is a nice bonus too, with a decent amount of space to spread out and enjoy your meal al fresco. If you can catch them on a good service day, this place really hits. Either way, the food alone is worth the trip.

We ordered the Philly cheesesteak tots but because they were out of tots, we got Philly cheesesteak fries on their fresh cut fries. It was piled high!! It was extremely good!! We shared a steak sandwich which was cooked to perfection. The roll was fresh too which made it even better! Since going we haven't stopped thinking about those fries though! Can't wait to go back and order them again!

Go to bar and the man behind the bar looks so disinterested. Have to yell in his ear im here for a pickup. He hands me my bag and receipt then turns away leaving me standing holding my credit card. A few minutes later he turns back to me to run card. All the while the music is BLARING. No smile, no thanks. Not feeling like i was welcome or appreciated or welcomed back. Get home, open food. Wife takes one bite of burger and says "this is not a home made burger ". She's not really a gourmet, but it's obvious frozen premade burger. Onion rings and disco fries are both pretty good. Portions were good for price. Just have to mention again how ridiculously loud the music was.
