This is my favorite go to neighborhood spot. Great drinks, and beer selection. Great happy hour sale as well. They have a decent selection on food. Staff are very attentive and friendly. My favorites are the wings, nachos and burgers! read more

Sitting here now with nothing to drink as they have no coconut rum at all, no flavored vodkas at all. Basically nothing to make a cocktail of any sort. Seems they just want to cater to men as the choices are beer, beer, more beer and tequila, whiskey and unflavored vodka. Menu is nothing but burgers, no appetizers very few choices at all. All of our favorites are gone. This used to be our go to location after work but I doubt we will ever be back. Jukebox is gone so you are stuck listening to whatever they have playing which left much to be desired tonight. Only upside is the decor in the front bar which looked great! Back bar was still in shambles. read more

I had meaning to check this place out based on the rave reviews on the food. Finally got the opportunity when David Wilcox played at Fox and Crow to a 40 person audience. The back room was well laid out and acoustics were great. I just had cocktails but the food looked pretty amazing. Definitely planning on trying out the burgers next time I'm here. Thank you for featuring quality live shows!!! read more

Had an AWESOME brunch here! The french toast is insane, highly recommend it. The waiter was super nice, and it's an awesome atmosphere. read more

I finally made my way to the Heights' latest bar this past weekend and was really pleased with my overall experience. They have a nice selection of ciders, beers, cocktails, and food. Best of all, the vibe is fun and pretty chill! I drank the Guinness Blonde ($7) and then noticed that they had a nice selection of ciders. Yay! Unfortunately, they were out of Krabbies so I ordered the Crispin cider ($7). I had just eaten so I didn't order any food while I was there, but my friends ordered the burgers with French fries (California and Krabby) and the beet salad. Everyone seemed pretty satisfied with their meals ($14). However, it took them awhile to get their food. I imagine the kitchen gets pretty slammed on Friday nights. The staff was apologetic about it and gave us updates. It would be nice if they had a slightly larger menu, but it's probably best that it stay this way since they seem to have a pretty small kitchen back there. When it was time to pay, there were no problems closing out my tab even though I was part of a larger group. Love that! Overall, this is a very happy addition to the Heights for me! It's so nice not having to schlep myself to downtown JC or Hoboken. It's a lively bar full of friendly people with pleasant service and a nice selection of food and drinks. I look forward to going here again! read more

Quality. Word rings in my head every time I'm here. The entrees might be on the pricey side for the neighborhood, but they are absolutely worth it. There are times when you just know you're having a sublime, extraordinary experience with your food. From the burgers to the fries to the pan-seared tuna, everything I have ordered off the food menu has been perfect and has had me wanting to come back for more. That coupled with the great craft beer selection just puts it over the top. So glad this place is here and I can walk to it. read more

Dear Fox and Crow, We really like your bar. Your food is great as is your wine and beer selection. However, we don't like your bar during the summer. Please fix your air conditioner. It is too darn hot! Thank you. Sincerely, Diane read more

#FOXANDCROW Since my last review ... I've returned several times. There are days when the drinks can still be a hit or miss but the BURGER makes everything better. The menu is really simple and I think that's a good thing. My favorite burger is the classic (so basic) well seasoned meat, the caramelized onions ..yummy! It's always on point and cooked to your liking. My best friend loves stopping by when she comes around here and since it's in the Heights - it makes it better. Definitely one of my to go places after work now. I'm glad I kept coming back. #JC #Heights read more

Came here on a Tuesday, and after sitting for about 15 minutes finally got attended. It wasn't overly crowded or busy. We put in drink orders and food orders. I ordered a Tom Collins and my bf got a Rootbeer float. He got his drink and the bar tender came back and asked "what did you get again?" Reordered and got it about 10 minutes later. Food comes out and of course instead of my burger I got a black bean burger. Bf had correct order and I had to wait. Not impressed at all. Seemed like there was something going on in the back room that they cared about more. The menu has a handful of items, beef burgers, crab cake, chicken patty etc. All different burgers, a few wing choices, and 1 salad, beet salad. Soggy fries too... Disappointed. Had high hopes for this small neighborhood spot. read more

My wife and I have been here three times so far and we love it. We've gotten more or less the same things each time: California burger (tomato, avocado, bacon), fries (thick-cut and delicious), beet salad (w/ goat cheese, pistachio, arugula, blood orange, balsamic reduction), and their "Mod Fashion" cocktail (bourbon, ModCup coffee concentrate, and orange bitters). Food is delicious, cocktails are tasty, beer selection is varied, staff is friendly. Atmosphere is great too; not too bright, not too dark, not too loud, not too quiet. Juuuuuust right. Last time we were in there Rory, the bartender, was playing MoTown; can't go wrong with that. Easily stands out as exceptional for the neighborhood, but would hold its own in Brooklyn too. Highly recommended! read more

Spent the early evening moving into a new apartment just a couple blocks away from here. One of our new neighbors recommended we check this place out for burgers, and I'm so glad my boyfriend and I did. We're huge Left Bank Burger Bar fans (in Jersey City), and Fox and Crow is being added to our list for amazing burgers. We sat at the bar, and our order was taken immediately. We were given a water carafe, which instantly made me happy because I drink a ton of water and hate waiting forever (especially at a bar) to ask for a refill of water. We engaged in some small talk with the bartender, who at first came across as lackadaisical but eventually warmed up to us. Dan (I believe is the bartender's name) told us about their daily happy hour (5-8pm), $5 beers and $2 off cocktails, the back room where they have live music, open-mic night, and he gave us his recs for the brunch menu. We watched both bartenders create intricate cocktails; they spent a good 5 minutes crafting these babies. The bartender even smoked wood when creating an old-fashioned (I didn't even know that was a thing...!). While we only had water with our food, I'll definitely come back to try some of their specialty cocktails. I was way too hungry to stop and take one before diving in, but both burgers were served on eclectic black and white splash-painted plates with ample servings of fries. We had the Cajun and Spicy Crow burgers. The bartender had both of our burgers cut in half before they served it to us because he thought we might want to share (I got the Cajun burger, my boyfriend got the Spicy Crow), which we did. These burgers were mouth-watering good - Left Bank Burger Bar, watch out! I didn't think I could find better garlic aioli dipping sauce, but Fox and Crow have it down pat. 4-stars for great food, cocktails, and prompt service. Excited to be close to this gem in our new neighborhood. read more

I had the Cajun Spiced burger last night and it was about perfect. All the food I've had here is top notch. The biggest issue here is that with the terrible live music in the back, they need to invest in some sort of door to drown out the music. Sitting there having to scream to the person in front of you isn't ideal. They could also use some front of house music upgrades as well. Whoever decides on that playlist, tone deaf. Oh yeah, and fix the AC. I'd like to not sweat whilst drinking beer. But like I said, the food is phenomenal. Hence the 5 stars. read more

At Fox and Crow today, I ordered vodka with grapefruit juice. That was all I ordered. There were three problems with the drink: (1) there was no detectable alcohol in the drink; (2) there was no grapefruit juice; and (3) the bartender did not give me change when I paid. (1) - I've heard of light pours, but this was ridiculous; Maybe there was some alcohol in the cocktail, and maybe it was masked by the sugary substitute for grapefruit juice, but I sat there for two hours, and I neither tasted nor felt the effect of alcohol. (2) - Frequently, bars don't have real grapefruit juice, so I always ask. The bartender told me they did, so I went ahead with my order. The drink had a pink color, but no grapefruit flavor. It was just some sort of punch. (3) - I asked the bartender what I owed. He handed me a bill for $9.60. I handed him a $10 bill. He processed the transaction and then turned away to handle another customer. Really? I thought it was my decision whether to leave a tip. Not at Fox & Crow. read more

Had the FC brunch burger it was so delicious! My boyfriend had the smoked salmon on hash and that was really good too! The drinks were strong too. I had the Bloody Mary which was very spicy. Def recommend this place had a nice Brooklyn feel read more

Fox and Crow - Black bean burger!!! Yum - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Great chill spot with good food and drinks. The spicy crow is legit. The burgers are very good also. Highly recommend.

I am very sad -- this place blew it! They bought a scary bar (Caribbean Night's) and turned it into the perfect place in the neighborhood (AJ's), and only after a few short months destroyed it by renovating again and creating the over-priced killjoy Fox and Crow. I pay less in Manhattan -- with better food and real atmosphere. This place is crawling with kids and their upper-middle class parents who neither live in the area. A $14 hamburger. You lost a good regular customer that lives across the street, and I'm certain all the neighbors as well! read more

I have passed this Ave so many times and wondered what was inside as a western slope resident! A girlfriend said the place rocks so we tried it. It was a quiet night, but the place is definitely clean!! I loved the ambiance, making it feel like you could get a drink or eat dinner and be relaxed. The server was super friendly, I also noticed he was training some one and she seemed eager and quick to pick up on his tips!! I ordered the blue cheese and bacon medium rare, it was cooked to perfection with amazing blue cheese and a bacon mixed with onion spread. The fries were super amazing think cut, salted just enough!! read more

Said a Hip hop Hippie to the Hippie and hip hop to the JC Heights Palisades Ave is quickly becoming the point of culture and rejuvenation in the Jersey City Heights. This place has gone through different transformations. I recall it being called Caribbean Nights. I am Caribbean only thing Caribbean was the word Caribbean Oh, and the pool table smack in middle, no swimming allowed. Now this place has been Re-named, Re-done and Re-claimed as Fox and Crow. Edgar Allan Poe would be proud. A well designed room is a place where every piece of furniture, every painting, and every fabric work together to create a harmonic space. The designer has succeeded and creating this atmosphere with is balanced level of reclaimed wood and metal makes me a fan. I was able to visit here for Mod Cup's anniversary party last month. The Mod Woman Mannequin was front and center. That night there was special Mod Cup coffee concoctions. I am unsure if coffee induced drinks are available on the regular. The music had me dancing, which isn't too hard to get me to dance. The kicker is seeing other JC residents getting down and moving. It was a refreshing sight. This is all thanks to DJ Pastiche was there spinning a wide variety of music. Now, it did take me a while to get a drink, but I know this was the opening night and the place was super crowded. The Bartender was doing his best to control the crowd but at least give patrons "the eye" so I know I have been acknowledged. I just had a couple of beers prices was a bit high, $7.00 average for beer. Can't really complain, there is no place on palisades that is this cool and swanky. Didn't think I could have this much fun on Palisades. read more

Place itself is fantastic, First time there was great as well, second time around not so much. The bartender is also the waitress and besides being ill equipt to tend the bar shes also an awful waitress. Her overall attitude is disgusting which is a shame because .. A. you want people to give you business and B. nobody like a person with a stick up their @$$. She basically flung the coasters and menus at us and gave me the hardest time about my ID. Saying it was fake.... I mean thanks for completing my youthful appearance but seriously ???? you look old and seasoned enough to know it wasn't a fake. my party and I were so disgusted with her attitude and lack of manners we decided to leave. read more

This place was surprisingly great. Stopped in on a whim and had a great meal. We got burgers and chicken. Appetizer of the wings. Staff was quirky but attentive and good at what they do. Great for dinner. read more

I'll admit, I had mediocre expectations for this place, but WHOA their burgers are incredible. I had the Cajun Spiced burger, and it was honestly one of the best burgers I have EVER had. There was a lot of love put into this burger, down to the bun being perfectly toasted on the inside, but not even a little bit burnt. The Cajun burger has crunchy onion strings in it, giving it an amazing texture. The whole thing was juicy, but not soggy. I'm pretty sure I'm going to eat this burger once a week at least. Beers: decent selection. They have 5 or 6 beers on tap, and more in bottles. I was super happy as an IPA drinker, as they have quite a few. My friend who likes stouts was not as pleased because her options were Guinness or Left Hand Milk Stout, but let's be real here, Left Hand is a solid option. I'm definitely excited that this place exists, and by the look of it, the neighborhood is too. We had to wait about 30 minutes to get a spot at the bar, but we did just in time for our food to come. Excellent place, great service, friendly bartenders. Will be back ALL THE TIME. read more

This is probably my favorite brunch saloon in town. If you're going to get rip-roaring wasted, this is the place to do it. The service is attentive, but the staff manhandle the cutlery and are stingy with their spoons. Our adorbs waiter, Dan, expertly drizzled honey into our friend's cup of tea. Everything you've heard is 100% true and then some. Obviously, the French toast nestled in a bed of fluffy white whipped cream is the main event. It is the stuff carb comas are made of! Don't skip the bottomless mimosas. The house-cut oranges are out of this world, and it's a steal at only $10. read more

Fox and Crow - French toast! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

This place is very convenient to my life. It's amazing how with the opening of fox & crow the hipsters of the heights come out of the woodworks (when it was Caribbean nights...and then later that sports bar (same owner as fox & crow) it didn't get nearly the attention -or crowd- it now gets. I've found their drinks to be good but somewhat inconsistent depending on the bartender. But my biggest beef is their hours! It's probably just because they're starting out but I can go at the same time 3 Saturday's in a row and one it will be open, twice it will be closed. I hope that becomes more regular. Now the good: them burgers! That food is so flipping good there! I've been trying to get back to try more if I can catch them at the right time as I hear they have been expanding their menus. If you're local. This is a must try on your list. read more

This kind of place would be unremarkable in Brooklyn, but in the Heights its unique and that is part of the allure. The food is good. It's standard American bar food for the most part, but with a bit of that hipster-flare to it. But the real draw is the drinks. They've got some cool mixed drinks on their menu/wall to try and the bartenders won't look at you with a puzzled expression if you ask for something that had more than two ingredients in it. It's also got a decent beer selection. read more

Was looking for a cocktail spot near Weehawken, without having to go in to Hoboken or drop big $$$ along River road and this came up on Yelp. Great find! With craft cocktails (7 kinds of gin!) and a deep DEEEEP beer selection it turned out to be a great place to grab a drink and unwind. A great 'downtown/brooklyn' look with kitsch above the bar and design touches that someone put some thought into. We then ordered the cajun burger and the krabby patty which looked and tasted great. The fries were fresh cut potatoes and my only suggestion would be a two-step fry to give them a more bistro-style texture. The bartender Ryan really friendly, and tweaked our second and third rounds of cocktails to our liking. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

My husband and I ate here on our honeymoon. We had non-alcoholic ginger beer which was really good. I had the crabby patty and thick cut fries. The fries were really good. The crab seemed to lack salt or something and didn't really go well with the sweet onion bun it was on. I guess I'm just used to some good old remoulade sauce or something since we are from Houston and the seafood is heavily influenced by Louisiana. My husband had nachos with beef. It has raw jalapeños but we're used to pickled ones. And he beef had BBQ sauce on it which we've never seen before. So I put the crab on one of his nacho chips and piled on the pico and queso and it was awesome, haha! The server was a really sweet younger brunette. :) It was family friendly (we ate around 6pm) and it has a really cute mural covering the whole front of the outside. read more

I've been here a few times, mostly for drinks but also to eat. This was a few months ago - I've heard they have increased their staff since then, which was be one of my main complaints. Firstly, I love that this place is in this neighborhood and I want them to succeed. I think everybody does. Every time I've been there the bartender has been overwhelmed, often also acting as a server, but the vibe is 'just be patient'. We came in once on a weeknight when things were pretty empty, and ordered burgers, and waited for quite a while before they brought them out. For prices... the cocktails are good and interesting, and I'm happy to pay for them. The beer is truly overpriced; the burgers are great, but also a bit pricy. If this is the price point they need to keep the business open, then I suppose it's what needs to happen... but I'd love to hear about a happy hour or something so that I can come here more regularly. read more

$10 glasses of wine? In the Heights?? Come on now, this is absurd...Good for Euceph at the Screw tho...I'm sure he'll be getting run off from this place... K, now for an update...since the back parlor opened, I LOVE this place...very cool acts, awesome cocktails, great vibe, cool anbience... (tho the manager is still a bit standoffish)...Fries are better than the burgers...thank the gods we now have a decent live music venue in the heights! Paris Monster from Brooklyn is one of their best acts...check 'em out before they get too famous! read more

Cute spot in JC Heights. A lot of work going in to this neighborhood but it's starting to pay off and Fox & Crow is a welcome addition. Came here for an awesome UYE (woot!) but was texting friends that they'd love this place and should check it out. The menu is small but well executed, with generous burgers and hand cut fries. Bloss kindly let me try her black bean burger and I would totally get it next time. Not everyone was in love with their cocktails but I was quite happy with a cider. The decor is comfortable and quirky without trying too hard. I LOVE the wallpaper. Someone told me it was hand drawn which is insanely awesome. The Heights is having a renaissance and Fox & Crow is helping usher in a new age up upscale spots that are fancy but not fussy. read more

Arrived around 9 pm on a Friday to get food, drinks and listen to some live music in the back room. I had been here once before on a weekend afternoon but only for a beer and have been wanting to come back. I had no idea they even had the back room/bar. We were able to get two seats at the bar which is always nice. My date got the blue cheese burger and I had the California burger. Both were amazing! Great fries too. We only drank beer but definitely want to come back for the cocktails. I LOVE the vibe of this place. We walked up from Hoboken bc it's what Hoboken is missing. It was the perfect Friday date night spot. Not overly crowded, but crowded enough to be a good time. Great food and great music. Very fair pricing. Thank you Fox and Crow! We will be back often! read more

Best bar in the Heights. The first thing you'll notice about this place is there's no sign that actually says 'Fox and Crow.' It's an illustration of a Fox and a Crow. Class. Then you get in and you're flooded with the awesome aroma of freshly cooked animals. Their death makes your mouth water until it collects in a pool you swim through in order to sample one of their draft IPAs. They have Sweetwater 420 Pale Ale, Flying Dog, and all those cool kid beers to make you feel more established. Afterwards you sink in to the tunes of Rancid, The Specials, David Bowie, or anybody else that doesn't suck and is great because their music is the tits. It's so good that tits actually form from the speakers and fly around the ceiling while the music plays. This is a gem and the best bar in the Heights. All Hail Jersey City. All Hail Fox and Crow. read more

Came here on a Thursday evening. It has cool artwork from the outside, and has a Brooklyn feel in the inside. Unfortunately, we arrived at 8pm so we JUST missed happy hour. Ended up seeing a couple of friends sitting at a table who was finishing up paying their check. Had to flag down their waitress a couple times. She must have been in the weeds because she seemed like the only server taking care of the whole section. My friends informed us in advance that the service was slow, but that the food was good. I wanted to give this place a benefit of the doubt, but they were right. The minute they got up from their table, my boyfriend and I sat down and did not receive menus or was introduced by a waiter for almost 10 minutes. We saw 2 seats at the bar open up and decided that if we sat there, we would receive faster service. Was immediately greeted by a friendly bartender. I originally ordered ballast point but he suggested that I should try pineapple Sculpin --which was different, but in a good way! While my boyfriend ordered the cranberry cider which was served in a wine glass. I had ordered the Cajun burger (with avocado), the classic burger, and some wings to start off with. Our burgers came out, but what about our wings? Our bartender forgot to put it in which at the time was not a big deal. Maybe he wouldn't have forgotten if he wrote down our order instead of just memorizing it. Half way eating my burger, I realized that there was no avocado. I figured he forgot to ring that in too, didn't bother to let the bartender know. I was hungry and I was finally eating. The fries were OK, but my burger was dry. Did not know what to expect since he couldn't tell us the how their medium/ medium rare is like. Anyways, once we received the check, I noticed that I was charged for $2 for avocado that was never on my burger. Our bartender removed it but for 2 burgers (with a side of fries included) and 2 drinks, our bill came up to almost $50. This was very expensive and for the service that we received, it was not worth it. read more

Made my first visit to this place tonight. Had a couple beers and pulled pork sliders with fries. My friend had chicken nachos. Everything was tasty, the service was prompt and cordial, and the vibe was great. Every neighborhood needs a couple places like this. This place, though, needs to discover air conditioning. I'll definitely be back, but not until October. read more

Heard these guys have good burgers, stopped by for dinner the other day. This is a nice bar, the decor is kind of steam punk meets Ikea... I like it. They have a nice selection of beers on tap and they do have a nice selection of burgers. I had the black bean burger, it was delicious. The fries are great too. The bartender was great, very attentive and friendly. She was a one woman show, and yet I had a drink quickly and she made sure nobody was waiting long. read more
