Absolutely love this place! The people are so damn friendly and personable . everyone ( I mean…read moreeveryone ) talks to you and makes you feel welcomed. The bar is lgbt friendly and there's all sorts of people there. I made friends in 10 seconds. They have theme nights and karaoke and so much more. I only started playing pool a few months ago so i'm terrible but the people there teach you. The drinks are cheap and affordable and the bartender Amanda is 10/10! She knows how to make a drink, knows when to refill and she's friendly! This place is literally a gem in the rough. def a local bar I recommend to anyone in Bayonne! Have fun everyone

Decent beer selection, a lot of games and basically all of them are in great condition. The bar is not too divey, more like a cool grungy hip bar, so it felt pretty safe all around. Plus they had these tables that repurposed retro pinball machines, awesome experience!

There was a decent amount of lobster meat, but the celery is too much. Looking forward to giving the lobster roll a try again in the future to see if there's a difference.

Place/vibe - 4 stars. Very old and unique charm. Heat doesn't work well though and seats are not…read moresuper comfy/old. But definitely worth a visit for the decor alone. Service - 5 stars. Very nice and attentive staff. Well staffed. food - 3 stars. It was a mixed bag. The corn beef Reuben and soups are very good. It's huge and loaded with cheese and tender. The burgers are great - massive. Kids burger is a great value. However, The German food and popular "steak sandwich " were super overrated and not good. Schnitzel was mediocre and the sauce was awful - very sweet. The steak sandwich was sirloin just not good cut and small portion over toast. I didn't like it. Garlic potato's and garlic sauce in general is very good amazing flavor. As I said mixed bag.

This experience does not warrant 5*, but the review it is not about the restaurant, but AmandaB…read more Dear Amanda, I am writing about what occurred following our recent visit. Being followed down the road and confronted about not leaving a tip, along with being told not to return when you are working, was upsetting and unexpected. I want to be clear that tipping decisions are personal. While I understand that you work for tips and that this can be stressful, a guest's financial choices are not their responsibility to justify. My husband and I chose to dine at The Well because it has become our home away from home while we are in town, and we take pride in treating both the establishment and its staff with respect. Over the past two years, we have consistently tipped well, from Ryan, whom we met early on around 2 years ago, to Madison, who was brand new hire as of last week. On this particular visit, however, we felt like an inconvenience to you rather than welcomed guests. We also noticed discrepancies on the bill, including two identical drinks charged at different prices, and charges for standard burger condiments such as mayonnaise, mustard, and ketchup, which we did not request as extras. These factors influenced our decision that evening. I do empathize with the challenges of working in a tip-based position, and my intention is not to diminish that. However, confronting customers in this manner is not appropriate and places everyone in an uncomfortable position. We value The Well and the people who work there, which is why I felt it was important to address this directly to you. I hope this can be taken in the spirit intended and that future interactions are more positive.

I had a few tough weeks. I learned sometime ago that my twin sons Bradley and Bryan (aka BNB) were having a hard time with my divorce from my ex-wife Cynthia. Bradley in particular has struggled, having recently been arrested for arresting a train conductor in Philadelphia. Am I a bad father? Am I a bad person? My ex-wife and I drifted apart. I wanted to start anew. But I am learning you can never leave behind what is in the past. But how do you also try to fix things in the future? I was driving in my Kia Soul trying to find answers. I ended up in Bayonne and Massa's. A bartender named Mike poured me a Sammy and let me sit in silence. I can't change the past. I can control the future. All I can do is live in the now, and that is the best way for me to help my estranged twin sons. I would recommend Massa's Tavern to anyone trying to get out from the shadows from their past in order to become a better father.
