Typical run-of-the-mill PATH station at the heart of Grove Street, minutes away from plenty of nightlife and high rise apartments. It's undergone some renovations I think, though mainly surface level? I don't know. Doesn't seem like much. It's not a large platform per se. There are two entrances. Most know the main one, but there's a side entrance near one of the high rises that can end up getting you to the proper part of the platform if you'd like to optimize time. Other than that, expect the usual stuff that one would usually expect. read more

PATH train station here right in the Grove Street entertainment district. Plenty of bars and places to eat, along with shopping and others things to do. Station is underground and is a bit grimy but clean enough. Trains are also decent and not messy. Very easy to get to from 33rd Street in Herald Square. Platforms have no AC but there are benches to sit on. Plenty of screens showing arrival times for each line. Machines on upper level to purchase tickets. read more

Little crowded. Small station where you switch train on the weekend since Newark train will not go straight to 33rd station. It had some delay. But, good thing that cell connection still works there. Little shady station. I would not like to get stuck here at night. Be careful and be mindful of your surrounding. read more

First...the Hoboken PATH. Then for a few years, NY Waterway ferries from Weehawken. Now it's Jersey City, and the PATH is back in my life. Is it hard to rate a train station with no discernable amenities, which only exists as a place that you wait for something else more interesting? No, it is not. What you think of as "a thing that's there" or "an observation" are all part of the four stars. There's a lot of good things about this station. Multiple entrances, for example, so it's never too crowded on one part of the platform. This is key for AM commutes. Also the countdown clocks, which I suspect became the norm at some point during my days at sea, are accurate and exist both on the platform and before the turnstile of the entrance I use. Very helpful for deciding whether or not I need to rush down the stairs. In the land of things I find medium, there are seats, but no trash cans that i've seen. Perhaps I need to walk further down the platform. Also medium is how well the ticket machines take my credit card, but I think that's just the machines themselves and much less the PATH station. The temperature is also medium. In the summer, it can, as one might expect, get toasty. Some stations have fans, which are quite useful, but I've yet to find one down here. However, there is an amazing breeze that finds its way down the stairs that definitely regulates the temperature to be more on par with what's going on outside. That's a double edged sword - it gets hotter and cooler faster, which is good, but it also gets hotter and cooler faster, which is bad. Depends on the season. Truly bad? Nothing bad to say. I'm happy to be back on the PATH, with full cell service on the platform and a JSQ-33rd train seat that's calling my name on the daily. read more

I'm so glad I have a reverse commute, so I always get a seat on the PATH train both ways. I feel bad for those people who have to commute to the city in the morning and back in the evening cuz the trains always seem crowded. Some have to wait for the next couple of trains. As for the construction that's going on right now, I don't think it will be finished any time soon as you can see they just hired a graffiti artist to paint on the walls around it. The staircase in front of 95 Columbus Drive is now narrowed wide enough so people can't walk past one another. There's always a long line of people waiting to get in and out during rush hours. That's not how it works; that's not how any of this works! read more

PATH Station - Grove Street - Train Stations Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Grove Street is located right in the middle of Jersey City facing towards Manhattan. I have come to this station several times during my time at Baruch as there were restaurants around the station that my alma mater wasn't close to. read more

This station is at the heart of the area, may the intersection of Grove and Columbus drive, surrounded by splendid eateries that stretch till the Newark Avenue, and some fancy apartment complexes. Walkable to the Newport and the exchange place stations as well. This station is accessible from both sides of the road and one more leading to at least 3 entrances that I know of. The citibike stand next to it, along with a Dunkins, a Starbucks and a McDonald's around it, makes it a commuters ideal station to take the train to NYC. read more

The Grove Street PATH is a good station. It's the first underground PATH station from the Newark-WTC line. So it is super convenient if you are traveling from 33rd to Newark and there's bad weather because you can make your transfer to the Newark-WTC line from instead of JSQ there. It's a clean station and the Grove Street area is very safe. There are lots of bars and restaurants in the area, too. The only negative is that the Grove Street PATH is not wheelchair accessible and doesn't have an elevator. People with mobility issues will have problems getting to the train platforms. While there is an escalator that takes you to the ticket machine level, the only way to get to the train platform is a flight of stairs. However, the PATH offers free temporary bus shuttle service, exclusively for customers using wheelchairs, between Grove Street Station and Exchange Place or Newport stations. read more

Went into the city, the station is decent. My sister had a stroller so we had to take the elevators which were running extremely slow. The exists also aren't built for strollers or people with wheelchairs which made it difficult to leave the station. read more

Dis my path station! Yay! This station is clean, spacious, there is never a line at the metro card machine and the trains always come on time. Basically that is all you could ever want or need out of a path train, and Grove St executes flawlessly. The location is also prime time and is right in the middle of a vibrant area with a ton of shops, restaurants and a farmers market. I've been to all of the path stations in Jersey City, and this is by far my fave. read more

If only all PATH stations were as clean and efficient as this one. In addition to being well-maintained, there's plenty of parking options in the area that won't burn a hole in your pocket or put your life in jeopardy (I'm looking at you Newark PATH station). There's two independent entrances that couldn't be more different from each other. One is at the center of a local business plaza, while the other is across the street and has a modern contemporary look. I'd say this is definitely my favorite station on the entire PATH line. read more

PATH Station - Grove Street - Train Stations Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

This is the worst service ever doesn't matter if this is a first world country but they have the most horrible train ever here and New York also let me tell for the price it's really bad stations in a bad conditions deplorable service stations closed on a busy Sunday going to WTC. Rats everywhere, smells bad trains always delay, congested stations. I don't know what else can I say about it probably not horrible there is no words to explain. read more

Prime location. I'll give them that. But the staircase in the Grove Plaza isn't wide enough. This wouldn't be such a big deal if the escalators were working, but it seems like one of them is always broken or getting worked on, so you have people squishing to get in/out of the station. The station is pretty clean, so at least maintenance is doing their job. My complaint is about if ANYTHING goes wrong on the PATH the staff handling the situations, you know, the people in the red windbreaker jackets (they are nice jackets) are running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Actually, headless chickens have more direction. I won't bore you with my story when I first moved to JC and the 33rd Street line was out of service, and the staff, shockingly did not know what to do. Today. Monday. As with all Mondays, there is a massive line for the metrocard/path machines. I honestly don't understand why they don't have another machine there. It could totally fit, at least another credit/debt only machine. Either way, there are only three machines. Two credit/debit and one cash/credit/debit, and every monday, especially the first monday of the month, the line is ridiculous. I don't do a monthly in November and December because of the amount of days I have off from work, it just doesn't pay. So I do expect that I going to have to be inconvenienced and wait on a long line every monday. Today, I came down the steps, walked over to the credit/debit machine... and there's tape on the machine. "Out of Service." Great. Glance over at the second machine, past the PATH agent in her red jacket leaning against the wall next to the two machines. Second machine, also "Out of Service." Fantastic. Walk across to the line for the cash/credit/debit machine, which is about ten people long. Wait my turn. Finally! And guess what?? There is tape over the credit/debit part of the machine. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? Walk back upstairs to Duane Reade, where of course there is a nice little line for the cash machine. Money in hand, I walk back down the steps, get on line again, add my cash to my PATH card... and as I swipe, the PATH staff says, "oh, if you only have cash or credit, you can just walk through the gate..." ARE YOU SERIOUS?!? You couldn't have mentioned this, I don't know, a half hour ago when I was looking at the machines, or when I was waiting on line the first OR the second time. Leaning on the wall the whole time, she didn't make a peep, didn't mention it. So yes, today, I certainly had a case of the Mondays... read more

Sometimes, I prefer the PATH train to the MTA train. The stations usually aren't as dirty, they have a TV, the timings of the trains are pretty accurate, and of course, the trains are much cleaner. Grove Street is the Jersey City train station - really great compared to many of the train stations in New York. Of course, the trains are kind of confusing (note that the 33rd Street and WTC trains going into Manhattan go on the same track, so be sure you get on the right train and the other side goes to Journal Sq), but it's clearly labelled. The train station is also conveniently located to many stores like a bank, a Dunkin Dounts, a Starbucks, and a Duane Reade - all at your fingertips. It's also in the heart of a neighborhood with many up and coming restaurants. There's also a taxi line that waits to pick up people so you can get into any part of Jersey City within a couple of minutes since the train will likely not reach there. read more

This station remains my personal hidden gem on the weekends. When entering Jersey City isn't too crazy I skip going to the Newark Path station and make it over here. The parking garages are reasonably priced and there is sometimes ample street parking. Just be careful of the recent street construction. But jump on a train here and you are at World Trade Center in 10 minutes and 2 stops, it doesn't get any easier or more convienant than this. I have yet to see one panhandler or smell the scent of urine while being at this station and will be forever grateful for that. read more

PATH Grove Street Station is basically my "home" station. I live a couple of blocks away and I love it. It has three entrances, its pretty much clean and its located in the best part of Jersey City. Ha! I guess I'm a little biased but you know I'm telling the truth ;-) read more

This is my home station. It's by far the best PATH station, convenience-wise, because you can catch the train direct to Newark, WTC or 33rd. What I don't understand, however, is the escalator situation. There are 2 escalators, but they only run from the street level, to the mezzanine level. They don't go down to the platform level. And at least 1 of them is always broken, and it's always the 1 going UP. So there is 1 escalator going down, while the other is blocked off, and it creates stairway traffic jams. read more

My favorite way into Manhattan on Sundays (other days I'll often use the North Bergen Park & Ride). Reason for Sundays only is that I'm cheap and look for on-street parking that's within a few blocks of the station. Many on-street parking rules aren't in force on Sundays. Service frequency is decent. Make sure you check the train destinations - trains to the World Trade Center and 33rd Street both use the same platform. read more

I only came through this station on 2 separate days (prior to this review) and both were pleasant. The entrance to the station resembles one of the subway stations in Union Square (NYC), which I found rather interesting. I do wish Path stations had vending machines, which is the only thing this place is missing in my opinion. I like the bench layout in the center of the waiting area, as well as the banisters. If you stand from one end and look at the other you will definitely appreciate the work put into this place. It's clean with a calm atmosphere which is something to appreciate. read more

Moldy, smelly, dirty and I honestly felt like I was suffocating from the heat when I was waiting for the train here. Now granted, all subway stations (especially in NY) fall into this category but this one was at its worst. I do give it two stars because it's in an otherwise great location, in a prime area with tons of bars, shops and restaurants. read more

I think everyone is being too generous with their reviews. While the place is clean and the televisions always work, it is so so sooooo hot during the summer time. There are a few fans that don't do nearly enough. Everyone is so sweatyy, yuck. read more

-New elevator took 2 plus years to build and is terrible you have to press and hold the up or down button for the elevator to move; somehow that's good for disabled people? I've never seen such a terrible elevator -when wet, the floor of the "mezzanine" area is like an ice skating rink - super slippery and dangerous read more

Awesome PATH station. Connects all lines, clean, multiple entrances/exits, plenty of ticketing machines. 'Nuf said.
