Finnegan's is an institution. Top 3 pub for me in the Hoboken area, great for games on the weekends. Ambiance is welcome could get loud sometimes but nothing to fault them for, offerings are wide so there's something to get. Best Guinness pour so far. read more

Hands down THE best fish and chips I've had ever. I'm still daydreaming about them. Service was good, Guinness was delicious, music was perfect. Great spot. read more

Four star vibe, two star food. Drinks were decently priced and fairly strong. Live music is great, although I wished they broadcasted the live music upstairs more frequently. We got the 5 for $15 sliders and they were abysmal. Tiny, dry, and slices of cheese sized for tiny mice. Other than that, we had a fine time and it got packed and busy into the night. read more

Decent neighborhood bar with the added bonus of having one of the few remaining live music spaces in Hoboken (RIP Maxwell's). A beer selection that generally covers most beer drinker's style and a nice long bar to allow communal gathering. read more

Irish pub with lots to do. They have stage for live music in the back. Plenty of TVs all around to catch the game. There are a couple dart boards upstairs. We had a couple beers and played some darts upstairs. Beer list had a mix of crafts and macros. I had a dark lager. We had lots of fun playing darts. I greatly appreciate the staff going out of their way to check in on us upstairs despite us being the only ones up there. read more

Finnegan's Pub is a fantastic place to spend a casual evening with friends - a neighborhood vibes with a laidback atmosphere, great beer list with rotating taps, good food and servicw, live bands, pool table, dart boards, lot of TVs indoor, cool outdoor space with a TV - great for any type of sports games. On our recent visit, we sat in their sidewalk cafe, ordered few beers, spicy margarita and nachos to share. Margarita was one of the best I ever had - pretty well balanced. We had a great time and definitely recommend this bar. read more

Great pub, great food, great people! I come here a lot and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal and great drinks!

Beyond unprofessional - tried to get in contact with owner and was left without response for over 2-3 months, two different email address gets no response and calling staff members only results in them telling you about their boss and say "he'll get back to you he's really busy" but then you see him drunk and playing music on his own stage that very same week - the least you can do is respond to one singular email instead of flat out ignoring business contacts Food is decent, beer tap lines could use a good cleaning read more

Legit one of the best spots in Hoboken! Especially if you are looking for just a normal good time. * neighborhood vibes with a great beer list that shifts some taps but they keep a lot of popular brews. Best poured Guinness in my opinion and cool outdoor space. *Food - wings/loaded tots and chicken sandwich (as a wrap with curry sauce) are my favorites but the other food is very tasty bar food that satisfies. Fries to die for! * service - I love these guys! Very knowledgeable bar staff (many from Ireland) and everyone is super cool. Not only is the service great but they also don't tolerate nonsense like some places in Hoboken. This is an Irish family owned bar and it feels that way. I always am in for a safe good time. These guys always provide me with a smile and a laugh as well! *music - great live music, over the years they have really advanced the set up. I never check the list but I never left because of the music, always a mix of local favorites and new sounds. * darts and extra room - 2 dart boards upstairs and party room you can rent that's away from the main action but super cute! All in all if you want a no fuss, good time experience Finn's is GREAT. Can't wait to go back! read more

Try the Reuben Sliders! Thank me later wow! Came here for some drinks and simple bar food for the night. I enjoyed the great atmosphere of the restaurant, everyone was very social and seemed to know each other! It's a pretty standard Irish bar. We had ordered the mild wings which were pretty tasty and as expected for bar food. The bangers and mash was pretty good, I was glad that the menu had offered some more Irish specific cuisine. However let me save you some time, get the Reuben sliders...wow! The buns are buttered and toasted to perfection, paired with the gooey cheese and tender corned beef. My jaw actually dropped as I bit in. I definitely will be coming back for some more good times...and some more sliders. read more

Can't believe I haven't reviewed Finnegan's ! There are endless bars in Hoboken but I find myself returning to Finnegan's again and again because of how great it is. What really sets this pub apart from the many others is the music. Finnegan's almost always has a live band on Friday and Saturday night, and the band is always good. You can usually expect to hear something funky / jammy. Think lots of Grateful Dead covers. I'm here for it. When live music is not playing they pump great alternative rock jams through the speakers. Live or not, it's impossible to hear bad music. There are also lots of fun games to keep you occupied. They've got skeeball up on the second floor and there is a back room on the first floor with pool / darts. The space is small but it's cozy. It's usually not hard to find a spot or get a drink by the bar. It seems small from the outside but because of the second floor and back game room there is space to spread out. I've never eaten here. In fact, I've probably never ordered anything other than a bud light or a tequila shot. But if you are craving any classic greasy bar food they'll hook you up. Great music and a cozy and cheery ambiance keep Finnegan's at the tippy top of my list for bars in Hoboken. read more

We usually stay away from Hoboken because we find the crowd too young but we are digging this bar off the main drag. Bartenders are so friendly. Having Kane brewery on tap is awesome and the food is really good too. Music selection is great and not top 40 and they have live bands Mon, Fri, Sat and Sun. Darts and pool tables on the first floor with skeeball on the second floor. We love the chipotle ranch wings. Wings have a good crunch and the sauce is scrumptious. Hand cut fries with curry sauce is an awesome accompaniment to the wings. This is our go to bar now when in the area. Just wish it was easier to park around Hoboken. read more

Finnegan's Pub is really the quintessential neighborhood bar. Its loyal crowd of repeat visitors loves to enjoy the fun and laidback atmosphere. The unassuming space also has a surprisingly good craft beer list and delicious food. On our recent visit, we sat in their sidewalk cafe that was crowded with patrons (though everyone had a seat) watching football on televisions that were projecting out to us. We ordered pints of Kane Head High, one of our favorite NJ beers, and enjoyed the game. There were also several customers with their dogs, which kept us entertained as well. After relaxing there for a bit, we started to get hungry. In the past, we had liked their food, so we decided to stay there for our dinner. Previously, I had ordered a salad with grilled chicken, which had been fabulous, but was not on their new, more limited menu. So, instead, I ordered the Cajun Chicken Wrap, which included Cajun-seasoned, grilled chicken breast, mixed greens, and pico de gallo. I had left off the chipotle mayonnaise, leaving the sandwich a tad dry. However, I had asked for a side of honey mustard to accompany my hand-cut fries, so I also put some of that on the wrap, which was a terrific addition. The sandwich had been toasted in a panini press, giving it a crunch that I appreciated. My boyfriend also enjoyed his Shepherd's Pie, which was topped with fluffy mashed potatoes. Finnegan's Pub is a fantastic place to spend a casual evening with friends. Whether you are eating some of their delicious food, sampling a local brew, or playing a few of their bar games, you are sure to have a great time! read more

Live music, food, and drinks: need I say more? Came here for the first time with a few friends, didn't know what to expect from a bar in Hoboken in a Friday night. I had an okay experience. It wasn't so crowded which was why I enjoyed myself so much. The bartenders weren't the friendliest but I was there for the food not for them. Once you order the food and drinks come out pretty quickly. There's no table service so don't expect someone waiting on you the entire night. They drop off the food and run away. The food tasted good, we had the wings, spinach dip, and cheese fries. I needed ketchup but as I said, they dropped off and ran away. The food was tasty. Especially the wings and spin dip. The beer was cold, cocktails weren't strong, wine was just right. I would stick to the beer or wine. $10min to order anything from the bar and pay with a credit card. The back area has a pool table and darts. Darts need $10 cash deposit to play, I'm not sure if pool was free or not. Live music is a nice touch, the band playing that night was pretty awesome! I enjoyed my self overall, hope you do too!!! read more

nothing special. good ginger ale for 3 bucks which was good. just very loud and tight. met a few friends here and we had a good item.

My boyfriend and his friend brought me here to watch the Arsenal and Porto game. The bar is quaint, small and seemingly cultural. The drinks are good, the food is decent, and the waitress and bartenders are lovely. I believe they could do with more seating, but I think they had more room during the night when there is live music. read more

This place checks all the boxes when choosing a bar: cheap beer, rotating taps (something seasonal always on deck), bomb nachos, and they turn off the music to live stream Jeopardy every night. I'm not sure if I even need to say anything else. They also have some bar games pool and darts in the back. I feel like this place has all the things you love about a dive bar without the negatives of a dive bar (no beer soaked carpets, no funky smells). There's a few high top tables and the bar itself is pretty long. Groups vary from the after work happy crowd to the regulars who probably stop in for a drink every night. Bartender makes an effort to make conversation and the service waitress if you sit at a table are always really friendly and never let your glass go empty. Perfect spot to grab a drink while planning your move for the night.. or to grab too many drinks and end up spending your night here. read more

Great laid back spot. Lot of TVs and bar seating if you're trying to catch a game. Service was awesome even though it was packed (thanks Erin!) read more

My friend and I came here bec another bar takes cash only. I was very suprised how good and chill this place is. Ordered wings and beer, which were pretty good. The waitress was really friendly. It's a pretty good place for meeting friends during week days. Update: came back w my bf on Friday night. I love the band so much! Live music, beer and spinach dip, yummy! read more

Great neighborhood bar with really great food. Pleasant staff and always a good scene. Have tvs outside which is a nice touch. The french fries are soo soo good! read more

I was skeptical when I first went to Finnegans ( I'm a bit of a wing snob). A very unassuming place on an unassuming ( Willow) road. That said, lots of draft beers, strong drinks and damn good wings. If they can get crispier fries , it would be a 5 star pub! Haven't tried and of the other food but it looks good ! read more

Great local spot. Been meaning to come here a while (we live a few blocks away), but I finally came in because I was grabbing a drink with a friend who was one of the regulars there. This review is only for the environment and drink options (I didn't eat there, nor did I see the back room/second floor). Pro's: it's clean, there's room and it's not too dimly lit. The bar is long, there are high tops separated back from it, and the chairs are comfy. They have enough space so that people won't hit you or your chair walking by. Con's: I wouldn't say this was a con as much as an opportunity-I ask the server what was on draft, and there's only one sign at the very end-maybe have them memorize the beers and tell you. Also, the one beer I got was $9 (and it was what I'd consider barely a craft beer). I'll probably try it again-outside looks nice-upstairs or back room should be good (hear there's skee ball), so for now-pretty down the middle for me. read more

"I like it." At least that's what the bf told me when I asked him what I should write about this place. Sigh... sadly writing Yelp reviews comes easier for some people than for others. Left at a loss for how to begin, I'll say that I also like this place. It is a laid-back Irish bar with decent beer selection and a relaxed crowd. It's not a dive, and has a lot more lights on than your typical pub, so you can actually read the menu! That's a plus, right? They sponsor a softball team, so I'm usually in here with those knuckleheads. The fact that they haven't banned us from coming in is a testament to how cool these guys are. Nah, we are a nice crowd. That includes the people I came in with, and the other patrons decorating the outside of the wooden bar. There are little booths off to the side, but who wants to sit in the corner? Most people cluster at the bar top. The Tuesday night bartender is top notch, and is willing to toss chocolate to angry girls who need a quick fix to get them through the night without clawing out eachother's eyes as they debate who messed up that throw to second base. Cheap draft specials. Last time was $3 Miller Lt pints. Awesome French fries that you can get this awesome curry sauce with. Yum! Solid place to celebrate a win, or to relax and drink with friends. read more

This is a drinks only review (I assure you I had enough to evaluate) For those who remember, this used to be Rogos. Well the place now looks a lot newer and brighter. It's a very open space, which makes it feel more inviting. The layout also makes it easier to watch the TVs. The owner also bartends from time to time! I never got a chance to sample the food, but if I come back to town I will hopefully get the chance. All in all a great bar! read more

I like Finnegan's since they have live music often and good specials on beer. It's a good place to catch a sports game. The only thing I have a problem with there is one of their bartender's. He's been rude to me in the past and acts like he's better than everyone that comes there. He should lose the ego. Customer service 101 is not to shame the patron when they say something doesn't taste right to them. read more

Russell my server saw that my Guinness glass was never empty. The fish and chips were amazing. The best in years. read more

Had to post a review after trying this place. I'm a flats girl when it comes to wings and holy fucking shit they did not disappoint. Their wings have the perfect amount of spice and were extra crispy while the meat stayed juicy and flavorful 10/10 would recommend. This place is sometimes a little crowded but there is a great Irish vibe here and all of the staff was extremely friendly. Grab your girls and get some wings and beers here ASAP! read more

Great small bar that now has outdoor seating setup with barstool seating. Some nights they have live music as well!

Great local bar in Hoboken. Good enough bar food if you're going there hoping for food as well but wouldn't seek it out for dinner. Otherwise, good spit for music on a weekend night, or playing pool, darts, or foosball while having a few drinks. read more

Finnegan's is a solid local pub. The topical drinks you'd expect with down to earth bartenders. What sets it apart are the skeeballs on the second floor, the roomy dart boards in the back, and the exceptional chicken wings that go for $0.50 each Tuesday. My one and only complaint is that they got to do something about the mosquitos plaguing the back room this summer; they're eating me alive when I play darts. read more

Russell was hilarious and an amazing bartender- the whole bar tending squad on Fridays was on point and the live music was an added bonus

Good beer, live bands, pool table, dart boards, and great for any type of sports games... what's not to love? Finnegans is quickly climbing my proverbial ladder of go to pubs for all the reasons listed above. I've deleted beers here on a few occassions with the buds, and I'm looking forward to putting Finnegans in the rotation more frequent. read more

This place is awesome when you come ask for Erin she is the tall beauty she is attentive and great a def must got to for a chill low kEy night read more

I came here on a Sunday and it was very busy, popular place in Hoboken to grab a good drink and food. Even though the restaurant was crowded the service was great. We sat at a table and our waitress Erin was so friendly and patient with us. Usually come in for the live music, which is always fun! Def my go to in Hoboken read more

Lol this bartender literally just called me stupid for blowing the Juul. Then proceeded to tell me how dumb I am for doing so. Disgusting sloppy joke. Never coming back, thanks. read more

What is not to love about a bar that plays Jeopardy every weekday with the sound?! By far the best bar to sit and enjoy a beer or glass of wine in Hoboken. Has a real local feel to it and bartenders like Russel and Barry will remember your name and usual order in no time and pour a beautiful Guinness. Big rooms upstairs and in the back to play pool, darts and skee-ball. Would recommend this bar to anybody who is looking to have a drink in hoboken. Not to mention the wings are some of the best in Hoboken. Live music is a definite plus and great bands but it can get really crowded usually leave before that. read more

AWSOME local bar. Friendly staff, good food specials, great music on weekends, and just a good place to hang out. With pool table, two dart boards and skee ball, you will never be board. Friendly crowd so you won't have any trouble finding a partner for pool or darts. read more
