Happy FriYay Junior Adventurers! This is a local spot and a decently nice dive bar (respectfully). Perfect for a bite to eat and a few brews. They recently redid the outdoor patio--great for the summer and it's close to the Sewarren waterfront to enjoy the sunsets and people bringing in their boats. If you're in the area drop by to check the sunsets and locals. read more

My boyfriend asked for two green teas and the bartender brought out three. When we questioned the additional serving, she said "it's on the house" However another bartender with curly long hair came up to us with a separate bill. Her attitude was so nasty, according to her she had to charge us for the green teas because she felt like we did not tip her well. She did not even let me finish giving her the tip money and became upset with the singles we had. Don't trust these bartenders. It's the principal behind it. Don't say it is on the house and then charge us for it. I can easily afford 3 green teas, but don't be petty about the situation. First and last time going to this bar. Update: Now Nick the business owner is denying this is "not his business" Please, don't be ridiculous! How do I know the live band there was playing Sway by Dean Martin last night? Why would I make this up?? I am not the only person here complaining about the same bartender! Instead of denying things, why don't you take these reviews into consideration and improve on your business? read more

Moby Dick's is a hidden gem. Great pub food, big selection and always freshly made. They have the BEST burgers!!! It's very "old school" vibes inside. They recently just renovated the outside to a more modern look and have outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Service has always been pleasant. read more

Great food! I have never had anything there I didn't think was delicious. They have great bands there, fun and entertaining. Always a great time at Moby's! read more

It's all about Tracy. She does a fantastic job places. Amazing entertainment. Great food. Very spacious inside. Highly recommend

Perfect neighborhood spot service is always great. I prefer the smash burger over the regular premade Pattie's. But the specials are always a hit as well. Fridays and Saturdays with the live music it might be hard to catch a spot read more

Wow! What a wonderful evening! We all had the clam strip dinner and it was delicious!! Great beer prices, great local atmosphere, and great wait staff. Debbie was friendly and attentive. It's been a long time since we've been here and we will definitely be back!!! read more

Been coming here regularly for over 20 years and never had service as horrible as tonight .. ignored for 30 minutes waiting for a refill then charged wrong and essentially called a liar... your Sunday night crew is terrible the Blondes mouth led to no tip read more

Great place. Classic dive bar with great food. Awesome bands. Place is chill and everyone gets along. Service is the problem. As cute as they are, the Bartenders love to socialize while you sit and wait for another drink. So order 2 at a time. Otherwise enjoy! read more

I'm not sure of the connection to Herman Melville other than its kind of maybe, near the ocean. That being said, Moby Dick's is the neighborhood bar you wish you had in your town. Stop in for a Warm Greeting & a Cold Beer read more

I went in for lunch with a friend. The wings were delicious, burger was big. Service was good. Real blue collar joint. Lots of TVs .

Love Moby Dicks Service is 5 star, food (pub grub) 4. Cant say enough good about all the servers. You never have to sit there for 5 minutes waiting for a drink like it should be for an establishment that wants to make money they're asking you when your drink is empty would you like another as it should be. And I absolutely love the entertainment there they usually are spot on picking quality bands. read more

The burgers are great! Really good bar food! We love to order from here. The Jersey burger is our favorite. And the fries with gravy and cheese took us back to those late night diner meals after clubbing. read more

I think my husband fell in love with the bar. Located in an off the beaten path section of town the scene is set for a great time. We got there just as the band was setting up and the crowd was changing from the early bird to the late night drinker. We may have been the youngest in here as most of the customers were closer to middle age. This is probably a nice biker style bar in the summer and it looks like this could be a fun party crowd. We were surprised by how clean it was here, especially the mens room which is showroom gorgeous. Although we made this note before my shot came with somebody else's lipstick on the glass. My husband thought it was gross but then spent a few minuets trying to figure out if the woman was still at the bar. He gave up when he couldn't find any one wearing that shade. He wants to come back as he loved it here. read more

Super friendly staff. Food was very good. We had mozzarella sticks, a bar pie and a cheesesteak. All on point. Clean with low tops, high tops and bar seating. There's also picnic table style seating with umbrellas out front. We'd definitely visit again. read more

I could see how this would be a decent hangout for the locals. They do have bands playing and the place does get packed by the regulars on the eves on weekends but my experience was the service trying to get a drink and not being a regular or a woman was like pulling teeth and then they never gave me my change until I asked for it. It's one this if it was a dollar since that's my usual tip when ordering a beer but if you give them a $20 that's not good. This place was okay during the day to stop in after a day of boating with the launch ramp down the street and grab a bite to eat and a drink. The part that really sucks is that having a beer here in the evening if you're not a local Woodbridge Police are waiting on the two roads out of this area to pull people over for a dwi check like a bunch of stalkers which is the main reason why I won't come here if I'm driving on weekends. read more

I give this place 5 stars in its category. It's a bar and grill with a surprisingly full menu and obvious care in the kitchen. Full of locals on Friday and Saturday nights but welcoming to me as a newcomer from Staten Island. I've been there twice and ate with my wife at the bar both times. From the seafood cakes to the steak quesadilla and beyond the food was much better than you expect from a tavern atmosphere. The bartenders hustle to happily serve. Both nights had very good bands. I'll be coming back often read more

Old school neighborhood tavern popular with locals been around a long time; don't expect any fancy cocktails or high dining a decent burger, ice cold beer and shots at reasonable prices. Local crowd is friendly and cordial; median age is thirties-forties maybe a tad older very territorial but welcoming to new comers. Fries are excellent burgers and bar pies on average but filled with greasy tastiness. We stop in when able when traversing the area visiting family members. read more

So, we've passed Moby Dick's a thousand times... and we finally stopped in for lunch today. The atmosphere is comfortable and friendly. Classic rock music playing in the background. A bartender, Allie, was also our server. She was friendly and just the right amount of attentive. The bacon cheeseburger was delicious, with a lot of crispy bacon, fresh onion & tomato and with shredded lettuce. Fries were good, crispy outside & soft inside, well seasoned. Soda was fountain quality. Prices were excellent. We're looking forward to coming back, & I'll be trying the seafood cake sandwich next! read more

Went to see my co-worker play in his band here last night. Crowd was mixed and they had a good selection of beers. Closest to craft IPA brews might have been Goose. I was drinking Sam Winter. Not a terribly big place, I'm not sure if I would call it a dive but some might. Overall, I felt comfortable. The bartenders were actually quite attentive and came around to the tables proactively which was great. Didn't get to try any food but I will when I go back. read more

I've been coming here for over three years. Tonight this new bartender tried to play me and 20+ people in the bar saying it was 10:40 and closing time when my iPhone kept saying 10:05!! I also asked for the same shot of Jameson as my friend and my shot was a dark color compared to a light Jameson. I was charged $9 for a single "shot" and it was not what I asked for. She didn't believe me when I said that wasn't what I ordered when you could clearly tell my shot looked like and tasted like black licorice not Jameson. And I was charged $9 fOr a shot I didn't even want cause I HATE the taste of licorice. Ever since the old bar tenders left this chick feels liken she can get away with anything but all I want is my $40 back from my total experience cause the entire experience was me being ripped off for shit I didn't ask for. If I could give negative points I would read more

This place is outstanding if you understand what it is... Local bar, friendly service, inexpensive drinks. Also, the menu is better than you would anticipate... Not the place to have your milestone birthday dinner...but the place you'd want to come with friends for drinks, a burger, and a great time. If you're hungry, order the pork chops...trust me...I know, doesn't seem right...but it is! read more

Wow, Moby Dick's was really excellent. The menu is great and I love the atmosphere. I really wanted to try Bacon Cheeseburger, I am pleased that I did, it was excellent! Staff are extremely lovely and service is very fast. Overall it was an amazing experience. read more

Solid locals place to grab a nice cold Pabst while you grab 'em in the biscuits. Mr. F & the fellas came here on a hot Friday. We almost left when we saw the portable AC unit, but we found a cool spot & stayed. Beers are cold and cheap. We all had Pabst and we enjoyed it while playing with the Touch Tunes jukebox. Food was average at best. The Italian sandwich special was pretty good. We also had the "Award Winning Wings." If there was an award for New Jersey's most below average wings, then Mr. F would agree these would be award winning, but Mr. F and the fellas were not pleased with them at all. What should be award winning is the men's room. This is one of the most fabulous men's rooms Mr. F had the pleasure of experiencing. Both the temperature and atmosphere is HOT! The urinals are playfully close together without splash guard, which allows for some hot impromptu water sports or sneaking a peak at your unsuspecting urinal-mate. Also, the door on the stall also goes down almost to the floor for some hot casual encounters. Mr. F & the fellas shall return! read more

I had stopped by Moby Dick's for lunch expecting a small hole in the wall with your standard bar fare. To my surprise, wow the food was amazing! I had the pork loin plate and the servings were huuuuge! Our waitress was super friendly and there was plenty of seating. Give this spot a try, it's fantastic! read more

I ordered the Hot wings and received 8 Large tasty wings and fast service! Will order again.

Clam flavored chowder no clams. Service non existent save your time and money. Used to have $5.00 lunch with salad bar. Completely different. Lunch specials not at all special. All items were taken directly from the regular menu. Burgers looked good, but burgers can be found anywhere. Not worth the trip. read more

nice bar a bit on the divey side but fun, really good food at decent prices, staff are VERY friendly and on top of the tables they work. FREE REFILLS ON SODA ALWAYS A PLUSS read more

Very casual bar/restaurant, filled with regulars at the bar. The seafood was excellent. I had the fish and chips, and I'm going to go out on a limb and say it was fresh caught--it was that good. We also ordered a 'fish cake ' sandwich, which was actually scallop, crab, and shrimp. It was a special, and delicious. The clam chowder was homemade with a lot of crab. The fries and onion rings were from a bag, but it's all about the seafood anyway. The waiter was the bartender, but he was nice and efficient. For $8 an entree, it was a deal. read more

We showed up with a group of 10, this place had every table reserved ranging from between. 8 and 9 pm. We arrived at 7. We were told we couldn't sit ev eddn though we agreed to leave when the party that reserved the table srrived.. this was very bad service and we will be sure to spend our money elsewhere tonight read more

Stumbled upon this great bar nestled in the corner of an industrial area thought it would might be a great idea to go in there for a bite to eat after a long day of work. It was 820 and I researched it on yelp before and they said that the kitchen closed at 9o'clock so we went and ordered a round of drinks the bartender came back to inform us that the kitchen was closed, I was very disappointed so myself and my three coworkers had to leave and go to another big-name corporate establishment and order food there I'm usually all about supporting local businesses but in this case they didn't accommodate us. Not her fault but I guess the cook didn't wanna be there anymore read more

Great place great music great staff....had a really good time!!! Tracy is absolutely the sweetest bar maid I have met in a long time. The wings are delicious you certainly will not be disappointed if you order them. I will definitely be back.... Soon!! read more

Fun place, great food...pork chops are unbelievable! Sunday afternoons for games is a great local atmosphere. Service at the bar is good, could be better if they didn't have to do the table service too. Problem is the overbooking of bands! Place is small, which normally I have no problem with, however they have music almost every night and it gets so loud you cannot think. We love their food, great price and always fresh, however they have lost us as customers because they want to be a band venue and not a local anymore. read more

Love this place! Their bands are always great Thurs through Saturday. And their steak quesadilla is amazinggg!! Great place for drinks after work or late night. read more
