We were able to get a table for two right in front of the glass windows, which was nice. There are limited Yelp reviews about the venue, so I wasn't able to do much research on the menu and food ahead of time. I've never been to a wedding at Liberty House, so I had never stepped foot in the space before. It's very big, several different rooms and it's very bright, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows that provide beautiful views of the NYC skyline. When we were first seated, we were given brunch food menus, brunch drink menus, and the cocktail/wine menu. Five minutes later when the server came by, he took away our brunch cocktail menu and said we had to order off the main drink menu. I didn't get a chance to look at the brunch drink menu closely before he took it away. I suspect this was so they could price drinks at a premium given it was a holiday (even though the server denied that when I asked him). I had two Hugo spritzes at $15 each, which felt very pricey. My husband's espresso martini was only $14, and usually those are more. I can't find the brunch drink menu online anywhere, so I have no way to see what drinks are on it and double-check the pricing. Service was slow. Drinks took a long time to come out. To start, we shared the Caesar salad, which came out in like 60 seconds. It says it comes with pita zattar croutons; it literally had two small pita crisps. Kinda pathetic. For entrees, I had the Nutella French toast and my husband had the steak and eggs. The French toast said it had bananas, but there was no banana to be found- just strawberries and blueberries. It was tasty, though. My husband enjoyed his steak and eggs; however, for $45, I'd expect a little more meat. They also put out a complimentary bread basket to start: a couple mini muffins and some toasted, stale bread. Overall, the food was mediocre. They have a parking lot; however, make sure not to scan the QR code in the parking lot and immediately pay. Wait until you get inside the venue and scan the QR code at the host's station so it's free/validated. My husband made the mistake of paying right away, and there was no way to get our $8 back. I tried to call the venue ahead of time to ask about the parking situation, but they have a stupid bot answering the phones and it wasn't transferring me to a human. I don't know that we'll be back anytime soon. the experience was fine, but nothing I need to return for.

After being seated, it took about 25 minutes before our waitress even came to the table or brought water. We then waited another 25+ minutes for her to return and take our order -- and during that time, she took the order of a table that had been seated at least 10 minutes after us. It appeared she may have known them personally, which made the whole situation feel even more frustrating. When our drinks finally arrived, I was given an iced tea and my husband ordered a Coke Zero, but she dropped them off and rushed away without even giving him a glass or a straw. Just very inattentive service overall. The beet salad was also disappointing -- it was mostly greens with maybe 10 small cubes of beets, which hardly felt like a beet salad. To make matters worse, the table that was seated after us received their food about 12 minutes before we did. Not once during the meal did our waitress come back to check on us. Between the long waits, poor service, and underwhelming food, this felt like a one-and-done experience for us.

Well despite attending a beautiful wedding here, our group had SEVERAL issues with the staff. First of all, it's called cocktail hour. Not cocktail 45 minutes. Not to mention they raced to put away the food before guests had a chance to get their final plates. Also, I don't think I've ever attended a cocktail hour where I was told "no" by one of the servers when asking for more than one item (seriously, they had chicken and lamb skewers, I asked for one of each and was told no). The bartenders were messing up drinks left and right, and the waiters (while friendly) made some errors as well. Our whole table was never served cake, and I think this is the first wedding I've ever attended where I actively needed to flag someone down to get a cup of coffee. In all honesty the food was very good, we just wish the staff serving it was up to the same level.

The guests were raving about how amazing the food was, how beautiful the venue is and how it was the best wedding they have ever been to! Jeff was so great to work with, he made our experience leading up to the wedding stress free and he was so accommodating. His team was also amazing day of, they were there within seconds for any of my needs. When a torrential downpour started minutes into our outdoor ceremony, the team was so quick to respond. Without hesitation, they immediately went into cocktail hour indoors and everyone was ready to go. When the rain cleared, all seats were dried and we were able to have the amazing outdoor ceremony I always dreamed of, and even better the second time around with an amazing backdrop that liberty warehouse has and the most beautiful sunset. The space itself is so amazing, outside from the beautiful view, the inside gives you the opportunity to create any vision you want. Every wedding they do looks so different and I was able to make my dreams a reality with this space. We even utilized both the upstairs and downstairs to do a dinner in one room and a party in another, both spaces were so unique and beautiful! The bridal suite was also an amazing place to get ready day of, there was so much room and Jeff had coffee, champagne, water refilled all day for us, it was so much fun getting ready there! I will never be over this day and I highly recommend Liberty Warehouse to anyone who is looking for a wedding venue.

The view is...not bad for small building that's only two stories high, but don't expect the sweeping views that come from being on the top floor of a skyscraper. The balcony on the second floor has some outdoor patio seating for al fresco dining. The dining room has multiple entrances and can be divided into two smaller rooms when multiple groups need to be hosted simultaneously. The catering menu for the event I attended was nothing special: grilled chicken, steamed vegetables, vegan pizza, a dessert spread, and basic beverage service. Waitstaff was adequate. If you don't feel like driving on half a mile of cobblestone to park at the end of Audrey Zapp Drive, you can take the free chartered shuttle bus at Jersey Avenue, which stops very close to Maritime Parc to drop off ferry passengers.

The menu consists of some elevated takes on some classic dishes, and the food is of reasonable quality, which is surprisingly not common for a harborside restaurant. (French Dip: C) - The broth is the star of the dish as it imparts significant flavor in the sandwich to make it incredibly juicy. Otherwise, I felt that the sandwich could benefit from a better char on both the beef and onions to add smokiness to the dish. The duck fat fries are nicely seasoned and pairs well with their spicy aioli, however the duck flavor did not come through. -- Food: E Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: +1 Menu: +1 Overall: +2 B Insta/Beli/TikTok: @amei_eats

These friends had each been divorced for many years and found each other...literally as next door neighbors about ten years ago. They decided it was important to them at this point to make their partnership legal and so they had a lovely wedding ceremony at City Hall and were married by the mayor of Jersey City. The reception was later held at this beautiful historic manse. Fortunately even though Covid was still in our midst things were not as bad then as they are now; the rooms were spacious and had enough room to practice appropriate social distancing. The architectural details abounded in this place. It seems to be a hidden jewel amidst the astonishing number of modern high rises that are popping up throughout Jersey City which is seeing a renaissance of sorts. It's a perfect venue for weddings, parties, music recitals and whatever you might need to rent a pretty space for. You can bring in your own caterers and bartenders as our friends did for this wedding. You are a Path subway line away from lower Manhattan. Suddenly there are quite a few reasons to venture out of Manhattan and over to Jersey City to experience. Who woulda thunk?

We stayed at this "hotel" for our wedding weekend in may 2026, and it was one of the most…read moredisappointing hotel experiences we've ever had.... especially for the premium price we paid for a suite during a major milestone celebration. From the moment we pulled up, the frustrations piled on. Expensive valet service that charged every single time you left the property (even for quick drop-offs), with no attached parking available. Instead they directed guests to a whole foods parking deck several blocks away! No bellhop or luggage assistance whatsoever; we had to drag our own bags inside and wrestle them onto the elevator like we were staying at a budget motel. Even the Westin in Jersey City offers basic bellhop service. For a Hyatt? Embarrassing!! The hotel itself smelled nice upon entry, but that was one of the few positives. We had booked a suite months in advance for our wedding weekend and were given one of the lowest floors. The suite was spacious with decent views, but it felt dated and poorly maintained; the door ID reader malfunctioned repeatedly. When we tried to call the front desk for help, there was no direct line. Picking up the phone made it ring as if we were calling from outside the hotel. Even cheap motels have direct front desk lines. This is completely unacceptable for a supposed upscale property.. Checking in and out felt utterly corporate and indifferent. Zero acknowledgment that we were there for our wedding .. no congratulations, no special touches, nothing. It was clear they didn't care about our business. The restaurant was decent with nice views, but that's not enough to salvage the stay.. We left with no intention of ever returning. The location next to the path station to nyc is convenient, but it can't make up for the lack of parking, outrageous valet fees, absent bellhop, broken amenities, nonexistent customer service, and overall laziness. We paid good money expecting hyatt reputed quality and hospitality. Instead, we got a 1 n done corporate flop that felt understaffed and poorly managed from top to bottom. It's a real shame they recently "renovated" this place as the execution clearly didn't match the hype. And if that wasn't bad enough, their response to our prior review on TripAdvisor from their so-called Jerrod Nicholson was a generic, robotic AI-generated template full of corporate buzzwords. Lol. It was so obviously AI-written that it was immediately detectable, lazy, impersonal, and further proof of the incompetence plaguing this property. They couldnt even bother to have a real human sign their name properly at the end. For a brand that claims to "strive to make milestone celebrations memorable," this level of detachment and automation is embarrassing for them, especially after a wedding stay. I gave them a 2 star there but due to their poor response I'll decrease to a 1 star. Hyatt regency Jersey city needs to do better. This place is resting entirely on its brand name and location while delivering subpar service. Save your money and your special occasion, and def look elsewhere.

When you enter the place, you'll see merch setup towards your left and the ticket collectors to your right (at least, that's how it was set up that night). There's a hallway that leads you to the back of the place where you'll see the stage. It's an intimate space, but there are a couple of monitors on the right wall people who aren't so close to the stage. I ended up watching some of the show on the screens because it got crowded upfront. The venue's acoustics are very good; it really doesn't matter where you stand in the space.
