Jersey City Smorgasbar Closed : r/jerseycity – Reddit

It was relatively cheap and convenient to go to after work. Self-serve drinks and seating worked a lot better than the crowded restaurants/bars in the area.

This is our go to waterfront spot for an afternoon / early evening drink. We love the views, there’s always music and the bar staff is friendly. Prices on par for the waterfront. I prefer going during the week when it isn’t as busy but food options are limited. Saturdays (when smorgasburg is in the parking lot) has great food options but it also means it’s packed! They have a few games (like corn hole) and a variety of shaded and sunny seating.

Great place. And the view of NYC makes it so much better in the evening. The food is really good and delicious! They also had adult beverages and an area for children to play.

A cool place to chill. Atmosphere is nice. You can go after work to meet up with coworker or friends. It has a grassy lawn or in the dirt side has table and chairs or it had patio furniture. They do smoke because it’s an outside area. Some guest brought their kids and they’re were a few dogs.

Been here multiple times but it was my first for the 4th of July Fireworks. Food and drinks are solid especially for the prices, great views for the fireworks as well but overall any time in general day or night of NYC skyline. Can’t go wrong coming here on a date/family outing or with friends. Chill place, pet friendly, good vibes, music and games. The food vendors, bartenders and even the ones at the entrance are all extremely friendly. Highly recommended this place.

Super cute place! They’ve got some fun games and an amazing view.

My only cons are that bathrooms are kind of far away (it’s not that bad) and that there are enough garbage cans on one side, but not the other. Given that you have to walk all the way to the entrance to dispose of your garbage, is a bit annoying give. That you also need to pick up your own drinks.

If neither of these is an issue, this will be the perfect place to you! Easy going, quick, and great views.

Enjoy!!!! 🙂

Not a typical beer garden or a bar. It’s all self service. Best part of this place is the view and ambience. But at the same time, there are not enough seatings to accommodate the crowd. It’s a chairs game running.

Also food and beer options are not much great. If you are looking to relax with a glass of beer, then this is not your place. But if you are planning to have a fun time with your friends, then it may be worth.

Positives- Lower Manhattan view, Open Air, Amazing Sun set view, Location,Clean toilets.

Negatives- Food and beer options, not enough seatings, over crowded.

Heat place to hangout during summer! Open space and river facing with quite a few options for food and drinks.
I went during early summer and some food trucks were closed but the ones that were open served great food.
Drinks are nice and very strong!

There is music band few games! Perfect spot for a sunny day by the river. It’s going to be my go to spot this summer

Really cool beer garden with an amazing view. If you live in Jersey City, this is a MUST to visit. The city views are incredible whether you’re there during the morning, afternoon, sunset, or at night. There are a few different food/drink vendors so this is a place you can go to with friends, family, or on a date.

We came here to celebrate a friend’s birthday and it was a lot of fun. Great atmosphere and decent drinks.

The only reason I’m taking 1 star off is because it was really difficult to get in touch with someone to make table reservations for a large party (15+ people). No one seemed to know who to talk to in order to reserve, etc.

Pros:
– Amazing views
– Large outdoor space with lots of seating available
– Decent prices for food and drinks
– Good place to hang out with friends/to bring a date
– Family and kid-friendly

Cons:
– No reservations are required, but if you are trying to reserve an area, good luck

A very cool place to drink by the water overlooking the Manhattan skyline. The drinks selection was very good and so were the drinks themselves. We had a Caiprinha and Pink Lemonade and both were good

One of the finest place to hang out with NYC Skyline. It is had a great outside ambience with sand on the bottom and lightnings on top of the trees. Though the drinks are not that good but the view makes it 4 star
