NEPTUNES BAR AND GRILL NEWARK FREE
If you’re looking for a cheap date, Clement’s Place has free Jazz and wine (tip the bartender)! It’s technically a liquor store, but Cool Vines has seating and serves drinks until 9-10 PM in the atrium of the Hahne building. Want to impress your Tinder date or re-kindle romance with your significant other with a drink? Check out Jimenez Tobacco, Newark Local Beer, All Points West Distillery (Saturday tours only), Burke’s Tavern, Marcus B&P, Bar Vanquish, and Dutch’s Lounge in the Tryp Wyndam Hotel.

Dominate that jukebox!įor a no frills atmosphere and drinks at midwestern prices, check out The Deep Inn, Krug’s Tavern, People’s Choice Lounge, or El Ejecutivo Bar And Grill. When you want a cool beer in a classic setting, Kilkenny Alehouse, McGovern’s Tavern, Bello’s Pub and Grill, Pour Abbey’s and Redd’s Biergarten are the mainstays. Here’s my breakdown of some favorite places for food, drinks and fun across the city:

The truth is, Newark has a lot of places to go out, it just takes a little bit of effort and exploration to find some of them. These factors combined with much of Downtown closing as commuters leave, gives people the false impression that Newark’s nightlife either doesn’t exist or consists solely of the Ferry Street corridor.
