Amazing Irish spot. 1) The place is very cozy. It is a warm cozy spot on a rainy day. They also have couches, which is very nice. But, getting the couches is tough. There is always someone stilling there. Also, near some seats are changing stations, which is really nice if your phone charge is running low. 2) I will highly recommend the pasties, it is meat filled pastry with gravy. Unbelievable! 3) Their Shepard's Pie was great. But, ask for their gravy on the side. It makes the Shepard's pie go from a 7/10 to a solid 9/10 read more

I'm sorry to say this most recent visit today with family was way below average for what ha been for us always a good experience. Not sure what the issue was but almost no dish was up to snuff. Ordered 2 buffalo wing orders. Not hot temp wise, not crispy. Still good flavor though. Then, split the breakfast burrito and what they call a grilled cheese. When you go to a pub for brunch, on a Saturday after new years, one is looking of twine good comfort food. The grilled cheese here is basically a bacon sandwich with 2 slices of not sure what the cheese was but barely melted. Not a gooey American cheese classic. For the BB, the home fries were barely warm and not tasty of crispy. And the burrito itself just disappointing. Maybe next time CD! read more

Burgers was outstanding! Baked briefly salad was so yummy and sweet pot fries hit the spot! Ordered a side and got a gigantic plate for sharing! Adorable little bar... service was fast until our food came and they never checked back to refill drinks. I would definitely come here if you are in the mood for bar food that is fresh! Looks like the burhers and wings are where its at here! The place was packed by the time we left. read more

Carpe Diem in Hoboken NJ offers a delightful experience with a cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The steamed mussels, and the chili wings were well-cooked. Looking forward to returning for more delectable dishes and perhaps trying the Irish breakfast. The ambiance, complete with a fireplace and TVs, added to the enjoyable dining experience. Always a great time at Carpe Diem! Also the bartender is super friendly and welcoming!! read more

The best wings ever! Finally made time to come here and try their famous, award winning wings and they really are that good! They're a must have and you'll definitely be craving them after you try them. Can't wait to go back just for the wings. The staff was also very nice and attentive. read more

What an amazing and convenient location. Maybe if I drank more and sat at the bar and could bar fare regularly this would be my jam. But I'm in the back, the parent section...those of us holding onto dreams of yesteryear when we had lives before bringing our kids to the local pub's parent section. I want to love this cutely decorated neighborhood favorite but after a few visits, I think I'm tapped out. Service is 0. We went a weeknight and the young lady server that night was helpful in ordering and kind but once she took my order was nowhere to be found. Literally. I had to ask 4 other people for everything from water to the check and everything in between. Today was even more abysmal. Asked dude for brunch reccs and he said he doesn't eat breakfast so he can't really help. He took my order and one entire order was missing. At no point was he present or came back to ask how the food was or he'd have seen one person's meal didn't come. An meh "apology" came when he brought the check that I waited 15 minutes for and even longer for him to bring the change. The pancakes were solid and OK. Chicken stir fry from dinner was bland and came in a soupy mess. It was like rice in a soup. Think gumbo w/o the gumbo flavor. I don't think that was the intention. Omelette needed salt or pepper or both. Southwest egg rolls were OK. Wings were dry and unseasoned meat w 0 taste without the sauce. I'm not a bar fly anymore so maybe the rave reviews are for the bar. I don't know but I cannot spend an hour and 15 minutes waiting for food, only to have a fraction of our order arrive, 0 water refills, 0 fs given from the waiters and horrific attitude from the curly haired guy today... I don't get it how he was so miserable at such an early point in his day. I wish I could come here daily bc it's close and right there, but I gets no love from this place. Wishing them the best. read more

Carpe Diem is a staple in Hoboken. A hidden gem in uptown On grand street. This is the best place for staple comfort food. The restaurant is very cozy inside with red velvet curtains and fireplace. All the food is always so warm and delicious. We had the pasties for appetizer, which was hot meat potato Pattie's with a hot tasty gravy. I was a little upset that they were out of 'Kates way' which is a open face Turkey bacon and gravy sandwich. That is always my #1 item to order here. (Please bring it back :) Luckily, the menu has so many other options I wasn't upset because you can never go wrong with their burgers! read more

This place is so cozy! Carpe Diem is a homey, unassuming Irish pub in North Hoboken. We got a warm greeting from the bartender when we sat at the bar. For dinner, we moved to a table. I got a market salad with shrimp and it was pretty tasty. The server was friendly and prompt. I enjoyed the food and atmosphere-- I will definitely be back and I'm excited to try more things from the menu! read more

I had a small celebration at Carpe and I would recommend 10/10 times. The staff is super friendly and attentive. We had the upstairs room which is perfect for privacy and make it more intimate. We catered the wings (obviously; as they are known to have the best in the area), chicken quesadillas, mini Shepards pie and spinach bites! The food was delicious and just what you need if you're looking for comfort food. If you're looking for a small laidback celebration with your close friends and family this is the place. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures because we were having too much fun read more

Came here for a weekend brunch and drinks . Firstly, service is very good and plenty of seating . Unfortunately they were out of many of the beers I requested on the menu , but it happens . As far as the drinks , Bloody Mary wasn't bad but no olives or celery in it ??? Now on to the food . I was looking forward to it but it was not great . We ordered SW chicken rolls to start which were lukewarm in temp and taste . I ordered a burger with the fries . Burger was average as the meat had no taste but the fries were stellar. My buddy got the breakfast burrito and he ate a little more than half - mediocre as was the burger Overall , there are much better pub food options in Hoboken. I hear a lot of great things about Carpe but today was not one of them read more

I like this spot. I have been many years ago but recently stopped in for Cinco de Mayo! We ordered tequilla/club soda and 2 specials! The carnitas tacos and chicken nachos. Both were actually really good- perfect to share! We sat in the bar area high tops and our server was really nice. Would recommend, would happily go back to try other things too! read more

Perfect Irish pub for a late night drink with locals vibes. The staff here is excellent and the Guinness is top notch. We are big fans of their wings and it's a great spot to catch the Yankees or NHL/NBA. I haven't been here for a football Sunday, their bar room is a bit small and limited tvs so probably would only get the local games. This is the best spot uptown for a nightcap after dinner! read more

Great place for bar food and delicious appetizers. The food was great! Great for bringing pets as well.

Amazing!!! FOOD I got the INCREDIBLE brie burger. Has bacon in it. The bun was a faintly sweet brioche, just how I like it! The brie was all melty on the patty. I ordered medium rare, but I think next time I'd get just medium. It had slightly raw vibes for me. The burgers and sandwiches come with fries which were PERFECTLY fried. My friend's sweet potato fries were incredible too. I usually don't like those but they were done well! I got the St. Germain cocktail which did not disappoint! I wish maybe there were another layer of flavor to the elderflower but it was great nonetheless. My friend got a strawberry margarita which she really enjoyed. MOOD Inside was SUPER dark so pictures weren't that great :( 'TUDE Friendly and attentive servers. No complaints. All in their 20s I think. read more

The chicken wings are sooo good! So are the fish and chips. But everyone who works there is really friendly and welcoming.

Stopped in yesterday for takeout and our order was ready right on time. It was nice to see how they had the tables set up for outdoor dining. The staff wore masks both indoors and outside. I got the California Burger which was HUGE and perfectly cooked. Really loved the cilantro/jalapeño sauce on it. The fries were perfectly crispy as well. Great option for takeout or outdoor dining if you're in the area. read more

Great local bar. And while most "bars" in Hoboken inevitably flip over into a club or a sports bar, this place keeps true to its identity all hours. Above average if not great food, good beers, wine selection etc. A bit off the beaten path but that's why this place works well. Thursday is half price bottles of wine. Pair that with the rigatoni vodka. read more

This is my all time favorite spot in Hoboken for a good burger, a beer, and a friendly, casual atmosphere. It's a no nonsense pub which is hard to find in Hoboken which is very much into the very trendy scene. The staff are so nice and love to just chat and have a good time while you're sitting at the bar. It had been a while since we dined in person because of covid and I'm so glad nothing has changed! Their menu has wine and beer pairings on it for each item so you know what goes best! The bacon and Brie burger is my favorite but I'm also known to get the mini burgers. I ALWAYS sub my fries for their sweet potato fries and famous Moon sauce! Trust me, it's amazing! They're also known for their Buffalo wings and have won awards, you won't be disappointed! They have a dining room with a cozy fireplace or the bar room with a few high top tables and bar seating (my preference). Now that it's nice out, they also have outdoor dining and a streatery across the street under the viaduct! I cannot recommend this place enough! read more

Pictures look way better than food tastes. Friends spoke highly of the place... I had the balls to tell the waiter I think I got the wrong flavor of chicken wings... he assured me they were Buffalo. If that's Buffalo, I don't know what's happening. Asides from food, staff was friendly and I appreciated his positive attitude especially when running between inside and outside in a rain storm. Just wish the food lived up to the hype. read more

We sat indoor upstairs. Upstairs is more quiet so that's normally good. However, the music was awful. A mix of Michael a Jackson and Wagon Wheel? Idk what's that's all about. French fries were good/decent. Banana bread beer was good. They gave me a cup full of ice for my magnet cider that was already cold, idk why. The rigatoni vodka pasta was so flavorless, I was so annoyed. I would have preferred store bought vodka sauce at home. read more

Carpe Diem Pub & Restaurant - Rigatoni vodka. Flavorless - Irish Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Five stars for this casual, cozy Irish pub. BEST WINGS IN HOBOKEN. I'm very particular with my buffalo sauce. I find that a lot of buffalo sauces are "sweet" buffalo sauces, which is typically not what I prefer. I tend to lean towards the more savory/spicy sauce. Carpe Diem has a sweeter sauce, and I STILL think they're the best wings in Hoboken. As good as the wings are, it's quite the opposite with the fries. The buffalo wings are remarkable, and the fries are remarkably underwhelming. No biggie, plenty of other things on the menu. Plus it's all about the wings. read more

This is a great neighborhood spot. People come to enjoy a sporting event on TV, enjoy a beer, eat good food, meet friends. We were there for dinner. The fresh mozzarella was just mozzarella sticks in a round shape. They were delicious. We also enjoyed the chicken quesadilla for our appetizers. The burgers were juicy and prepared just right. The fries were crisp and hot. Overall, a delicious meal. The front area is the bar and the back room has limited seating. Outdoor dining available when weather permits. The fireplace in the back room must be very inviting on a cool night. Our server was attentive, not a long wait for any of our food that was served at the right temperature and friendly people. Yes, they also have carry-out. It's all good. read more

First, let me say that I'm a big fan of this cafe and recommend it to anyone. The food and service are very good and warrant four stars. However, I have two suggestions that can make it even better: 1. Take measures to mitigate the excessively loud noises coming from the coffee bar e.g., constant banging of portafilters and 2. bring back the bacon jam, it's the main reason many people preferred Carpe over local alternatives. read more

Super cool place. Clearly, it is a local joint, but with friendly people, a great bartender and fun atmosphere. Do appreciate Nick behind the bar and some of the locals to engage and have a fun conversation. Definitely recommend this place. I will be back. read more

Man the food here is bangin'! I was not expecting this pub to be so good! First off, it's got a little something for everybody. Bar area with TVs, tables and high chairs and a back restaurant area. The service is great, the bartender and the waitress couldn't have been nicer and the food was on point. There was a group of 4 of us so we did a few apps and drinks in the bar area while watching a Stanley Cup game. Spicy Steak Bites - SO GOOD. GET THESE (if you like spicy). They were not too spicy, but they do have lots of jalepeno slices in the dish which are totally edible and tasty if I do say so myself. This dish is cubes of steak in this awesome sweet soy sauce with jalepenos for the kick. I'll definitely order this again and again. Chicken Fingers - Very tenderized (thin) pieces of chicken and very crunchy! They came with a honey mustard dipping sauce. Coconut Shrimp - Pretty typical as you would get anywhere else. The shrimp were somewhat small and came with a sweet dipping sauce. Wings - typical hot wings you can order with buffalo sauce, bbq, sweet chili or honey This place really surpassed my expectations. It's far uptown and it's right near the movie theatre so it's great to stop at when you're in the area! read more

Came here for brunch with a few friends last weekend, as this was one of the few places nearby that had an outdoor/patio table available with an awning/covering when we called ahead. Despite the rainy weather, they had heaters set up and it was just overall just a cozy, relaxing place to have some drinks and good food. The menu has a lot of traditional American and Irish pub food, but there are still a lot of different options. I decided to go with the Gourmet Grilled Cheese (which was really good!) and my two friends loved their California Burger and Egg White Omelette as well. Portions were generous, and service was great too. read more

Great portion size for their apps. We stopped here for a beer, our first time even though we've lived a block away for years. For some reason good from a pub didn't entice us. We were wrong to discriminate. Their lightly breaded Chicken fingers came with delicious homemade honey mustard! I could tell from the lack of food coloring and abundance of flavor. The waiter confirmed it. My wife had goat cheese bruschetta drizzled with a homemade vinaigrette which balanced perfectly with the cheese. The bar features a very fun decor with its Trophy full of wings and walls covered in pictures (includes everybody from Joan of Arc to Conan the Barbarian). A fun place to stop on for a drink. I hear the sweet potato fries is no joke, will have to make this a regular watering hole so I can take advantage of that! read more

Have visited Carpe Diem on a couple of occasions, on a weekday daytime is a great cozy pub. On an evening, the relatively small bar area is transformed into a distractingly, noisy mess with tv screens all over the place. Carpe Diem, is a welcoming pub without the TVs and music during the day. Currently it's almost as if a frat boy moved into their grandparents living room. On a weekend afternoon, a different staff, different atmosphere and loud music "has to be on at this volume, it's one of our rules, sorry." 95 decibels of loud pop music, with five couples or small groups trying to hold a conversation or watch football. Typical bar food was average and bar staff believe they "have no amber beers." Have ordered wings from here before and they were excellent. Not sure why there isn't a comfortable, welcoming, relaxing bar in Hoboken. Being a shouty, loud fratboy-focused TV space doesn't appeal to me sadly. read more

On a trip with my daughter, saw pictures of food on maps ,called for reservations, told them 3 pretty girls were starving,they say see you in a few ,arrived in minutes, to be greeted with friendly ppl and food was delicious, service fast and awesome our waiter "D" took very good care of us , very attentive and personable being from Buffalo, I never eat wings anywhere else, but when I saw the trophy,I said I would try next time I visited, we had a great time, portions were good we took a lot back to the hotel! read more

It's a great place and I keep coming back there, just like last night. I am also in mission to work and improve cocktails all over the world and my baseline is Margarita. I fly to Mexico frequently to calibrate myself. I have been there every month since May 2019, but traveling there since May 2018. The Margarita did not seem to be using mixers so great points right there. However it felt a bit too sour in way it seem it could use a bit more flavors to make it more sweet. Size: small bar (area) but there are more table space in separate areas so overall medium size. read more

Poor quality food choices, need to improve the quality of the ingredients and style of cooking. Ok environment pub style.

Can't say enough positive things about this place. Great/professional service, excellent food, and the staff treats you very warmly/friendly as soon as you walk in the door. For a Hoboken "locals" place that can tend to be very crowded on any given night and make you feel uncomfortable when you're just trying to have a relaxing night, you don't get the weird intimidation feel that you'd see at other bars/restaurants in this city (everyone staring as if you just walked in on someone's private party). Thank you guys for making me feel right at home in Uptown Hoboken for a great meal always! read more

THE WINGS. Hands down best wings in all of Hoboken. The brunch on the weekends is a great. I love heading over for a game at the bar!

Love this place. Cozy dining and bar areas, friendly staff, great food. Mushroom soup is the best we've had. Our go-to local spot.
