Wow, either I got it really wrong six years ago, or it was just a fluke event in the kitchen. SYF is, and has been for years, at the top of its game. Possibly even better than I remember it growing up as a kid, and I LOVED this place as a kid. The Original Boli is where it's at. I can barely finish the regular size -- especially if I'm saving room for Thomas Sweet next door. Boli Gods please forgive my previous review. This place is and always will be da bomb! read more

We visited Stuff Yer Face after years... simply because I have zero self control when I come here and leave feeling ridiculously stuffed! I was craving some fries and without a doubt, Stuff has one of the best in town. The fries changed slightly in that they're thicker, but still crispy and darn delicious!!! Craving satisfied! We stuck with the classic order - fries and a stromboli and our bellies and hearts left satisfied. Coming from a gal that rarely enjoys bar food, I am always a happy camper here. Order a side (or two!) of the ancho chipotle sauce - you can literally put that 'ish on anything. read more

This place is so dirty and not maintained. It's like a dump. Scuffed moldings, dirty windows, areas that need to be repainted, food and liquid splattered on walls and pictures, black kick marks on doors. It's funny actually. If the front-of-the-house looks like this, I could only imagine what the back-of-the-house looks like. Very, very bad. Shameful actually. read more

I didn't really come here too often during college. However, the fishbowl is legendary here. Makes for really good conversations and it's delicious and affordable. Caught up with a friend here and had a great time! read more

Loveeeeeee their strombolis. Soooo many options to choose from and so fresh and yummy. Comes out piping hot with melty cheese. You can choose to put whatever toppings you want in your stromboli. The staff is super nice. Wait time isnt long eigther. And it is suchhh a cute bar. read more

So what's better than Nachos?...We know, "Potachos!" Something we just discovered. Everyone is used to having the classic Nachos. Topped with all of our favorite things, like onions, peppers, jalapenos, refried beans, & most of all, cheese! It's a go to snack & we can't blame anyone, Nachos are always a crowd pleaser. In fact, we tend to always start off with them when available but recently discovered something similar but even more fun & tastier. So, today instead of just going out & starting off with some Nachos, let's try some "Potachos!" Now, what are "Potachos" & where can you get them? These are exclusively served at "Stuff Yer Face" in New Brunswick, New Jersey. "Potachos" are made out of potatoes & sliced finely & fried, kind of like nice thin chips. They put them on a platter & top them off with bacon, tomatoes, onions, chives, sour cream, & covered in cheddar cheese. They are crunchy, full of texture, & bursting with flavor when biting with all of the toppings. They really do put Nachos to shame. In additon, we also ordered "Quesadilla Rolls" which are small rolls filled everything quesadilla. They are filled with mesquite chicken, Montery Jack cheese, jalapenos, onions, all wrapped in a flour tortilla & deep fried. These are a really great choice as well at "Stuff Yer Face." If anything, why not get these alongside your "Potachos." "Stuff Yer Face" is a really fun place to have lunch, dinner, & drinks. It's a very youthful place as it's located right by the Rutgers University New Brunswick campus but it is also very family friendly. Great staff & good service, it's a comfortable place. You should really be making arrangements to pay this place a visit & have these "Potachos" amongst other menu items. You can also follow us on Instagram for more at @LittleLocalTaste. read more

BEST PLACE. I have so many fond college memories here. Great vibes and service and the food is fun. Bar food. My favorite is the potacho, French onion soup was delicious and the strombolis are delicious. The drinks are fun and what I remember most from college but as an alum I realize they have the best of it all read more

Classic New Brunswick hotspot. Stuff is closely associated with my fond Rutgers memories. I came back recently with a group of friends. It's still the same old - a little dark and dingy and sticky tables, but all much expected from Stuff. The service is alright and the vibes are pretty chill. I got the Roth Boli which is a chicken, bacon, ranch, tomato Stromboli. They're known for their Stromboli's. I don't find it that unique, but they taste alright anyway. It's filling. The spicy beef potachos is a new potachos added to the menu since I last visited. My friend got it. There's a lot of flavors going on at once. It's just a tiny hint of spicy. I would stick to the original potachos next time! Also, I didn't get fishbowls (60 oz. of sugary alcohol jungle juice) this time, but that is another Stuff staple. I did note the price is now raised to $21 ($16 before that). Decent food, good drinks, fun place to gather with people! Stuff is a classic, and I'll always be coming back. read more

Stuff Yer Face has been a New Brunswick landmark for the last 40 years. It's also a rite of passage for every Rutgers University student. If you haven't been to Stuff Yer Face at least once during your 4 years there, you can't call yourself a Rutgers grad. I think it had been about 10 years, since I was last here. Not much has changed from the green awning, to the inside bar and upstairs seating. It all looks pretty much the same. The specialty here is the boil (aka Stromboli). There's dozens of choices to choose from and if none of those strike your fancy, you can always create your own. The large boil is substantial enough to fill you up and even take half home, depending on your appetite. You could also order a baby boli for the same price, which includes a salad. The prices on everything are very reasonable; catering to a college crowd. Stuff Yer Face is more about nostaliglia for me than the actual food. It's fine, but nothing I would normally go out of my way for to relive my college youth. read more

Really over priced sandwich For half the price - it would be a different ballgame I would still like it more stuffed and well cooked and a spice on the side with napkins May be others are having a better experience as this place was packed and people enjoying the food. Could be just this order. Food was tasty but not memorable in anyway. I would take a slice over this anytime. read more

My family introduced me to this place and it was surprisingly really good. Now it's always busy tho, I guess everyone found this once overlooked hidden gem. The prices are reasonable and the food is quite flavorful and comes in decent portions. The service is okay. The only complaint really is the college students being annoying. I love the drinks! You will too, trust me. They give you soooo much to drink, and it taste like juice on a good day. Please drink with a friend because it will get you drunk fast, even with a friend. I read some reviews talking about their experiences and it does confuse me to see some people didn't like the taste but I guess everyone has their own opinion but I would have to disagree. It's one of the best locations in New Brunswick and that says a lot considering how many great restaurants are their. It's perfect for what it is and i think that should come in consideration. A drunk food place. read more

Don't order salad. The salads are awful and have zero nutrition - whitish iceberg M lettuce and a couple of sad carrots and cucumbers. If you're looking for a gooey, dense Stromboli, you'll be content. Was hopeful because the reviews are good, but I've pretty much never had a truly good meal near Rutgers (minus ramen) read more

Outdoor seating is nice vibes for happy hour hour w a few friends after work. We got the spicy beef potachos to share which were probably my fav part of the meal, potato chips instead of actual nachos and toppings were good. The arango boli was a little too heavy on the cheese for me, maybe I should have picked another one but I couldn't finish mine! read more

Stuff Yer Face - Potachoes - Pubs Near Me - New Brunswick, New Jersey

My brother suggested we eat at Stuff Yer Face since it was right next to my niece's apartment and she was in the middle of finals at Rutgers. Plus, this is apparently one of the notable places to nosh on campus. The outside isn't that noteworthy, but they do offer outdoor seating if you want to people-watch the students hustle and bustle about. The inside is busy with pictures (a lot of them of Adam Richman from "Man vs. Food," who visited Stuff Yer Face), people and noise and has the feel of a classier dive bar. We were seated next to the bar, so I could barely hear my family members and had to shout to be heard (but in all fairness, this is probably part of the atmosphere that the college students like and I've always liked more quiet places). Stuff Yer Face is know for their Strombolis or "bolis" as they're referred to here and they have many, many options to choose from. I had the four cheese boli and it reminded me of a bigger hot pocket cut in half. It was just okay. I was underwhelmed especially since there were pictures of a "celebrity" plastered all of the walls and they have a reputation for having great "bolis." I came here to see what the fuss was about and I'm okay if I don't venture in here again. read more

You might not be a true Rutgers students unless you've visited Stuff Yer Face. A true Rutgers classic in the downtown New Brunswick scene. Also, probably one of my top 5 places in the "places you must visit when coming to Rutgers". My biggest recommendation is to get the $18 fishbowl which can easily be a good time for about 4 people. Actually, get the Horny Hawaiian fishbowl which is my personal favorite and you won't be disappointed. The atmosphere of this place is a typical bar only it's really geared towards the college crowd so do expect loud noise, drunkenness and a very good time. The bartenders are consistently good always. The only complaint I do have is that on some nights they seem a bit short staffed. Other than that, if you're from the New Brunswick area, went to Rutgers University, go to Rutgers University, in the area and under the age of 35 (lol) def come to this place and you'll really enjoy yourself!! read more

Stuff Yer Face - Horny Hawaiian - Pubs Near Me - New Brunswick, New Jersey

Always happy to come here and get one of the Bolis. If you come here, be sure to try the bolis and a fishbowl!

The best place to go on campus. SYF mixes good food, good beer, and a good place to hang. The bolis are delicious. The beer list is long (though not as impressive as a college and post-college me remembers) and has lots of very good options. It's a great place to go with friends or family and have fun. And it's not expensive. It's not the best food on campus or a haughty beer bar or the most raucous spot but it is the best combination of all of the above and a quintessential Rutgers destination. read more

This place is a classic in New Brunswick! It's a great bar and snacks. Well maintained, efficient service and fun!! It's a perfect space to hang out and grab a few drinks. I had fishbowls in the past and they are fun/novel but it san insane calories. I probably wouldn't order those again but recommend that everyone try it once. Their warm potachos are incredible as well. There are plenty of options on the menu for vegetarians as well. Definitely a fan of this spot. :) read more

I usually only come to Stuff Yer Face for fishbowls and drinks as a pregame for the night, but this time I sat down and ate some from its menu for dinner. I had to try its famous bolis (and get some starch in my stomach), so I decided to get the mushroom baby boli which also came with a salad or soup. I decided to try to french onion soup after my friend recommended me about how great it tasted. The french onion soup was really good, topped with a layer of melted cheese that oozes onto the soup below. I think it just had a little too much onion in the actual soup for me, as I prefer more soup. My baby boli was the perfect size and filled me up (the regular boli is huge!), and I loved the ingredients inside it. It was also a pretty decent price for the meal for the amount of food you get. Definitely will get food again if I am craving a boli or need to prep for a wild night with loads of starch! read more

Been here 3 times. Get the same order every and always consistent. I highly recommend adding the roasted chili peppers and ancho-chipotle to your boli. Always packed with college students and adults. Caught the Yankees game there once and the place was wild. read more

I love Stuff Yer Face and I ALWAYS make sure to bring friends here who are visiting in the area. The best things to get are the Strombolis, potachos, and fishbowls. If you're not feeling too hungry, I would definitely recommend getting the baby boli combo, which comes with a baby boli and soup. If you like French onion soup, the one here is one of the best I've ever tried because of how melty and good the cheese is. The service is quick here no matter how busy it gets and the food is always amazing!! read more

First i want to start by saying that stuff yer face is false advertising The menu prices are off by $3-$4 Misleading It needs to be updated Maybe start by terminating the manager for not doing his job properly with staying on top of things And like most other restaurants The quality of the food is unacceptable No wonder its mot as busy as it used to be Food is trash Order the broccoli bites and see if theres any broccoli in there Talk about misleading Avoid eating here And if you go there for beer Check the expiration date on that since management isnt doing anything right Place turned into a real dump read more

Another Rutgers tradition...hadn't been here in years!!! We were excited to order. It was quote busy when we were there...and eventually or appy and food all came out at the same time. We tried to start with the potachios...think potatoes that are fried and topped with cheese, bacon and ketchup...yum!!! I had the chicken and broccoli boli, but love the op, lasagna boli (now named after Mario Batali who used to work there during college), or any boli. They have a special original baby boli for $1.90 with the purchase of an entree as an anniversary special. Be sure to check out their beer list...one hundred bottles of beer on the wall!!! read more

Stuff Yer Face - Menu... - Pubs Near Me - New Brunswick, New Jersey

Stuff Yer Face, affectionately called Stuff's by Rutgers students, is my favorite place to spend a crazy weekend night. It's famous for 3 things: potachos, strombolis, and fishbowls. The potachos are a bizarre combination of potato chips, cheese, sauce, and meat. My favorite is the original potachos, which have ketchup and bacon. The pulled pork potachos come with BBQ sauce and are delicious as well. Skip the chicken potachos - they're not worth it. I personally think the strombolis are overrated. The dough to filling ratio is too high, so you're mostly eating bland dough. Stuff's brags about their large strombolis, but I've split their largest (18 inch) stromboli with one other person and both of us were still hungry afterwards. Stuff's fishbowls are massive 60 oz jugs of alcoholic juice. Getting a fishbowl is a rite of passage for Rutgers students after turning 21, so I've had more of these than I can count. My favorite is the Blue Bang, and the Horny Hawaiian is also pretty good. Much like the infamous jungle juice at frat parties, the alcohol content in fishbowls varies widely, so one day you might be able to down two jugs without a problem, but another day you and four friends might barely finish one. Never underestimate the power of a fishbowl, even though it appears to be mostly ice! Whether it's to celebrate a birthday, to pre-game before going to bars, or to get some food after a wild night out, Stuff's is the best place to go. read more

Many will say that you haven't experienced New Brunswick, if you haven't had Stuffs! It's a little divey, but also a little dim and cozy. Known for its Stomboli's, the busy restaurant is one of the most popular hangout spots at night, especially for college students. Everytime I go, it's always a full house. I mean, who isn't craving pizza. And if Stromboli's are basically wrapped up pizzas, then there's your answer!! Stromboli's come in 3 sizes, the baby (4.5"), large (9"), and huge (18"). The large is enough for me. Some people will get a huge and split. There's so many options to choose from, but I typically enjoy the tomato sauce based bolis (like Roni&Sausage boli or Meatball boli) as opposed to the Roth boli since they have more sauce inside to keep it from tasting dry. At the very bottom of the page, there's also an option to create your own! Potachos are a MUST. Ideally you could order one plate for a group of 3-4 people and it's probably enough to fill you before the main course, but I've done it with only 2 people and we had no regrets so do as you please! Fishbowls are also a popular staple, though at $21 per pitcher of mixed drink, I honestly don't enjoy the artificial tastes enough to get it. Order from the beer menu instead - there are so many more options. Overall, Stuffs is a great place to come with friends and have a low key night of good food and drinks! read more

Good pub food with many selections. Tons of boli type sandwiches. Many beer selections. My main gripe is the price of everything which seems to go up every time I visit. I still visit from time to time but will do so less and less as the prices continue to climb. read more

This place has been a staple of New Brunswick for 25+ years, and it's better than i remember it being. Over the years they've really built their beer list, expanded to an outside patio and have created a restaurant that exceeds expectations. I went to college in New Brunswick so I've been to Stuff yer Face countless times and can write a fair review from multiple visits. I would say it's rare to find a seat at the bar, and I think the reason is because everyone knows you get better service at the bar. However, I'm just talking about the inside bar; there is also an outside bar! During the spring / summer months this free's up some space inside, but there is a lot of space to sit outside too. Stuff yer Face is famous for their craft beer selection, "fish bowls" and "boli's." They offer 4 different mixes of the fish bowl, which essentially is a huge mixed drink that probably will get you buzzed if not drunk if you drink the whole thing by yourself. If you are a light weight I would advice to understand what you're getting yourself into (haha). The Horny Hawaiian seems to be the most popular mix. They offer a really unique and great appetizer, I believe the spelling is Pochachos. These are potato chips with meet, salsa, sour cream, and all other types of delicious toppings. If you're with 3-4 or more you MUST order this. Now the best part, the BOLI'S! If you don't know, the stromboli's (boli's) are amazing! They come in two different sizes, large and HUGE! I used to get the huge back in my college days, but now I tend to stick with the large (especially if you order the Potachos). If you're wondering what kinds of bolis they offer, my answer would be infinite; they have pages of different boli's to get. Some of the more popular ones tend to be pepperoni and sausage and the chipotle boli. I personally like "the original." The only bad thing about this place is the service. I don't always think it's their fault either; this place can great crazy busy. Even though I think the service is poor (the bar service is good) I still come because the food is worth it. read more

How can I begin to explain the love I have for this college town gem? My family and I ventured out to Jersey after seeing Stuff Yer Face featured on Man vs Food. I've made it a personal mission to try as many places I've seen on TV that have piqued my interests, whether it be an Andrew Zimmern, Anthony Bourdain or Adam Richman production. I have to say that to date, I have not been steered wrong. It's at the point now that any time we find ourselves in Jersey or just driving through, we must stop by SYF for their spectacular bolis. We always create our own and go for the Large so that we have enough for two meals. They offer so many different ingredients to customize your Boli from Brie Cheese to a Chipotle Aioli. The Bolis already come with some standard default ingredients that you can build off of, like Mozz, Tomato Sauce, Onions and Peppers. Depending on when you venture out, they offer decent drink specials but even when they don't, the prices are reasonable. If it's a weekend, be prepared to wait. They have an ok turnaround time for tables but it gets pretty crowded. They have a dining room upstairs, two downstairs by the bar and in the back front. They also have outdoor seating and bar area. It gets lively, they have fun two-person cocktails, darts, teles and great energy. We love coming here to eat and you will too. Oh and try their other food also. They're not just awesome at bolis but their appetizers have always been good. The pierogies are slamming! read more

Social distancing was followed here which was appreciated! Make a reservation the day of right when they open - they only accept reservations day of and it fills up quick! There is a 1.5 hour limit on tables which didn't seem to be a problem for us. There are no draft beers currently, and there unfortunately was no mixed drink menu. They were also out of many beers, which is understandable during this time. The Stromboli were decent - no baby bolis at the moment so you have a choice of large or huge. The waitress was sweet and on top of things. the kitchen forgot the tomato sauce on my boli but the waitress was quick to bring out a side for me which was thoughtful. Overall, this is a good quick meal for New Brunswick. read more

A good place. Very reliable. Always good bolis. The assortment is amazing, and if you can't find what you like, you can make your own. I usually go for the eggplant (basically eggplant parm). The original is also very good. The Italians is okay, but really needs peppers and onions. When ordering be careful - a baby boli with a side salad is a perfect size for a meal. The regular is 9" and is enough for 2. read more

This place is definitely a college bar complete with outside bar patio and fishbowl pitchers. I drop here once in a while because I LOVE the potatchoes! They are so tasty especially after a few beers. They have a decent size selection of craft beers, IPA, as well as the generic ones on tap. They currently have two decent pumpkin beers--Shipyard & Harvest Patch (yes I enjoy pumpkin beer lol). They are famous for their stromboli's. The menu is enormous with the combinations of meat, cheese, a& veggies to add to the stromboli's. I still prefer my potachoes and beer or fishbowl. Be warned this place can get insanely busy and filled with rowdy college kids on a Saturday night. The one thing I do like is that they provide a wrist band at the beginning of the night if you're drinking because then they can weed out the underage in a pinch. read more

FOOD: you gotta go here for the Strombolis. They are great. They have so many variations and create-your-own Boli. I personally enjoy the BBQ Chicken Boli. It is obviously not a upscale restaurant, its a college bar so the food they provide is appropriate for the bar you are in. The ecstasy fries are probably one of my favorite thing on the menu. I have not tried anything I didn't like at this place. It gets a little crowded especially on weekend nights in the summer, but its not a bad thing if you enjoy that NIGHTLIFE & DRINKS: They are known for their fish bowls and they are great! not too pricey. maybe $15, but you have to remember they come in huge pitchers! You can easily share one with someone. I think they limit the fishbowls to 1 per person cause they can be pretty strong. The nightlife is very busy during the Rutgers school year. It is a great place to be on a summer night cause they have a patio with an outside bar. Its definitely a casual bar, not a nightclub vibe or anything. Good to go with a group of friends since it gets a little crowded. Highly recommend to anyone in the New Brunswick area! read more

Maybe I have a higher standard from NYC and I am not used to eating greasy fattening food so much. However, when I stepped into Stuff Yer Face, I know the night would not end without some greasy, doughy stromboli in my tummy! We got 3 people in our group and we ordered their nachos and Large 18 inches long Roni stromboli, which has pepperoni and Italian sausage inside. The nachos was alright; I have had better ones. The chips are crunchy but the toppings were kind of lacking. Their strombolis are amazing. The dough is chewy and baked perfect and combined with the pepperonis and sausages. I feel like in heaven. Of course, after eating them, I felt like 5 lbs heavier! read more
