Go where the locals go! We are in town for the weekend for work and we needed to get dinner after a super long day. Read the reviews from Yelp! Let's go! Yelp! Did not disappoint. What a neat "dive bar" in all its glory. Great wings! Wet, tasty and lots of napkins, what a great flavor. We got burgers and a po boy sandwich. All was very good! Also, acoustic guitar duo was playing classic rock songs. Really cool vibe. If we ever come down this way again. We are definitely coming back to Al's airport inn. Our waiter was very attentive and the staff all asked how we were doing. Very friendly. read more

I've been here a handful of times with colleagues for dinners after work, and it's a good spot for bar food, good beer, and a dive-like setting. I've tried the fish & chips as well as a sandwich, and it's all tasty, definitely filling. Staff is very friendly and attentive, and they have lots of specials throughout the week. read more

Great local bar! Bartenders are great and vibes are everything you'd expect them to be.

i had a great meal here, i was very indecisive, but i made my decision based on the classiness of a good ol' BLT. It was full of flavor and hit the spot right where i needed it to. The service here is great, their staff pays attention to detail immensely and nothing slips through the crack. Great place to watch the games. nice sporty ambiance. read more

Al's is a local dive bar with a "Cheers" feel good environment. It's mostly locals and an all around friendly bar that happens to have some of the best burgers and wings for miles. They have a great happy hour, good prices, and daily food specials. The beer is ice cold and they have 20 taps which include many local craft brews. You can also catch live music most nights and they have a killer brunch too. read more

This venerable West Trenton neighborhood joint has a great laid-back vibe, friendly bartenders, and food that punches well above a typical bar-menu's weight class. read more

Located in an old house at the end of the runway of Trenton airport sits this gem of a dive bar! Great vibe, great people, great service, good beer, and tasty food! What more could you ask for. The signature wings were great. Fried to perfection with a sweet hot sauce! The corn bites were great as well, although a dipping sauce from like street corn may take it to another level! They serve it with sour cream. Great thick burgers and tasty porkroll! Good pub grub menu. They don't have draft beer, but a good selection of bottles and cans. Fun, friendly bartenders! read more

It pains me to write this. Thankfully it is only ome experience and hopefully a rare outlier. But the details are very difficult to explain. I suggested Al's to dine with a (sophisticated) friend who'd never been there. Although my wife cautioned me, I felt confident that my friend would appreciate the 'hidden gem' of Al's, as I have. Burgers and beer. What could go wrong? Our draft Guinnesses were delicious. When our burgers arrived we immediately noticed they were COLD. When I say this, I don't mean 'no longer hot'. I mean ROOM TEMPERATURE. Burgers, even the onion rings. I immediately alerted our (first) server who (politely) silenced me because she was in the process of serving a nearby table. She came over, heard our complaint, apologized and took our plates away. Our meals were returned very quickly. The burgers and rings were now warm. Edible for sure. The buns, however, were COLD. Colder than they were before. Actually just shy of frozen. That evening (a Sunday at 6pm) we were served by three different people. The woman who took got us menus and beckoned over a young man for drink orders, took our food orders and delivered the cold and reheated meals, the young man for our drafts, and another woman who came around to check on us, replace a broken knife, tale away plates and accept payment. The combintion of facts is difficult to explain. A stab might be that when our meals were done they just sat there, suggesting a server failed to notice or deliver them or perhaps a cook failed to ring a bell or something indicating they were done. Then I guess it was decided that these patrons should not have to wait for entirely new meals so a microwave solution was opted for. Then someone realized that a microwaved bun would be a dead giveaway so mew buns were used, perhaps right out of the freezer or a very cold section of the refrigerator. Maybe our timing was poor, eg coinciding with server shift transitions and our treatment just kind of slipped through the cracks. Sorry Al's. I have not experienced anything like this at Al's before. And certainly not at Wildflower, Tommy's or Brickhouse. read more

Their food is always so delicious. They have the best wings and sauces and appetizers and drinks and literally everything. They have fun events like trivia, live performances and bingo. Also a good happy hour. The service is 10/10 and good vibes all around read more

Great food and drinks in a cozy setting! Servers are always attentive. Can't go wrong with this place!

Al's Airport Inn is a great spot with delicious food and genuinely good customer service. The staff is welcoming and attentive, and the food is always well-prepared and satisfying. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back--highly recommend stopping in if you're nearby! read more

Excellent local bar with good food, live music most nights and weekend afternoons. One of those places with a local vibe, but friendly and inclusive to anyone who walks in. They have Teachers and LGTBQ nights, and Phillies sports on the TV. I play here regularly so may be biased, but the staff and chef are super friendly, food is steps above standard bar food with some creative additions. Good local beer selection and cocktail specials. Family friendly before late night. Gets busy at certain times, reservations available, but not really required. Check them out , hope you'll love Al's too! read more

Great service, relaxed atmosphere, live music, amazing drinks! This was a great find while I was in town.

Nice small local joint worth checking out! Came here around opening with a friend and was able to snag one of the last remaining tables. As others have said you seat yourself here and menus are already in the stand at the table. Place is packed pretty tight and it was incredibly loud for the early crowd! I know that's out of the place's control but it was one of the loudest "bars" I've ever been to. Food was amazing and prices are very reasonable. Quesadilla was like none other and I was very happy with my Cuban sandwich! Overall I'd pop by for another quick meal but would choose another place if I wanted to sit down and catch up with guests so I could hear them! read more

Great dive bar with better than average bar food.. get packed quickly especially whenevwr there is a game going on...

Ssshhhh! Don't tell anyone how AWESOME Al's is for drinks, food and atmosphere. Love this place. We go here with friends and we go here with family. It's a small bar with some tables for eating. The bartenders also serve the tables. They are attentive and friendly but the bar does get busy. Food is good... you must try the corn nuggets, and the drinks are very reasonable. For the most part it's burgers, sandwiches and wraps. But they also have great specials. And their weekend brunch is fantastic. It is located right next to Mercer County Airport, this the name! Definitely worth visiting. read more

I came in with a group, and the place was pretty crowded. We didn't have a reservation, but the staff made accommodations for us. The place has a great vibe and the staff was super friendly and attentive. Our server, Melissa, was very informative and and made great suggestions. She was running around the whole place, but still made time for us. We came for the wings and were not disappointed. The young man who brought them to us was also very friendly. I will definitely be coming back many more times. read more

Fun bar, cool dive bar, I love their shrimp and happy hour snacks. Good service! A cool first date if you just want drinks and snacks.

Don't let the fact that it looks like an abandoned shack deter you from stopping by Al's Airport inn. A favorite for locals to enjoy beer, spirits and great American fare while they reminisce about the good ol' days and think of ways to keep America Great. I've been there so many times I don't even wear my hard hat anymore. Give me a nice burger or a grilled steak and cheese sandwich that is stick to your ribs delicious. Go on a Thursday trivia night and kick back with a few beers and Buffalo wings and forget that the thrust of the jet engines outside could likely blow away the facade of this classic, old-timey bar. read more

A hidden gem. Live music at all sorts of times of the day. Brunch available most of the day. Board games. While one might be initially nervous about the dark / classic looking interior, don't be. The restaurant / bar is spotless. Rest of the menu is classic pub fare. I had the special, pulled pork sandwich - excellent slaw, pickle, brioche roll (toasted well). My favorite part about this place is the selection of cocktails. Everything we've ever had here is well mixed, served in crystal clean glassware. Look at the season / special cocktails - those are definitely the best. read more

Great staff, great food, and a great vibe. There is usually live music, either during brunch or during the evening hours. The music is professional and generally excellent. It can sometimes be hard to find a seat in the dining room or at the bar, but if you are comfortable standing at the bar for a few minutes, you'll most likely strike up a conversation with strangers making the 10-20 minute wait all that more enjoyable. The staff and service is personable and professional and they will eventually remember your name and drink of choice. The food menu has range and is always freshly made. I judge bar food based on their wings. Al's wings do not disappoint. Naked and Fried crisp, with 5-6 sauce options. Al's special sauce reminds me of the old Italian Kitchen in Oneonta, NY (where I went to college). They are addicting. Burgers are legit and the cheesesteaks are on point. Plenty of TVs for sports of all sorts. It's a good mix of a Philly and NY fan base. Go Giants!!! read more

What a great pub!! Food was fantastic (genuine Trenton pork roll was my favorite) the beers cold and the service friendly and fast.

Friendly spot, great decor, excellent service, amicable fellow patrons, and the wings were delicious. Let me clarify: they do something unique with their hot wings that doesn't in the least disappoint you even if you were expecting something more usual. It's like a mix between BBQ wings and buffalo wings, but it really REALLY works. Definitely a great place to stop by for a beer and a bite. Not much more to say other than definitely recommended! read more

We were recommended this place by many in a local Food group for their wings and it did not disappoint. On a snow day we finally tried them. Only for takeout but as for the staff, all friendly, the location, clean and nice inside. The food was all yummy. I see they have Saturday brunch which I appreciate as I work every Sunday, I'll have to come back for that. They have live music too. Fully stocked bar. Will definitely check out again! read more

Al's Airport Inn - Dive Bars Near Me - Ewing, New Jersey

During a recent trip to Ewing, NJ last week, we had dinner at Al's Airport Inn the first night (we had arrived late and needed a place where we could eat late). We sat at one of the available tables - there is no host/hostess but there is a visible sign instructing patrons to sit wherever they want (this was in no way an inconvenience for us). We ordered Al's Steak Melt and Fish & Chips. They were both very tasty. The Limoncello Mascarpone Cake was delicious and one portion was more than enough for two people. Our server, Maria, was very attentive, friendly and a pleasure to talk to. There was live music, which was very plesant. We liked that it was not too loud, making it more enjoyable and allowing us to have a converstion while we ate. The bar was crowded and it had a nice, casual ambiance. We liked the food so much that we went back for take out a couple of days later. During this second visit, we again ordered Al's Steak Melt and decided to try the Shrimp Mac and Cheese. The latter was a little disappointing in that it was not particularly creamy and the shrimp were minuscule and scarce but the taste was OK. If I ever go back to this area of New Jersey, I would like to go back and eat dinner at this place. read more

Busy local bar. Seating is limiting. Small parties are best. Salt-n-vinegar wings are very good.
