Came for their Tuesday HH. Place is not too crazy, still has seats if you have a small company of 2-4. Their HH tacos are solid for the price. read more

The Grove Station - HH Shrimp Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Unfortunately after my encounter with the manager at this bar / restaurant, I did not receive an email or message regarding the bias approach & targeted discrimination against me at this establishment. I have been a resident of Jersey City for 7 years now, and bring nothing but love & warmth to everywhere I go. It was completely disgusting on how I have been treated here. Very disrespectful, unprofessional, & unnecessary. I can't believe I was threatened with " I'll call the cops if you don't leave" I believe that change will be made in due time, being that I'm not the only customer/resident that has experienced this type of treatment. I hope the owner & manager at this establishment is reprimanded for their behavior. An establishment like this should not exist in any community. Unfortunately it's always busy because it's right near the path station where commuters & travelers stop for food or drinks, so that's where they get most of their business, but some of the residents and regulars that have been supporting that place before Grove Station, have been treated unfairly and personally targeted. I have seen it throughout the years. I'm appalled, and hoping to see change. read more

Came here to quickly watch some March Madness on a whim as I realized I couldn't watch it via my TV at home. That was a bit inconvenient. Anyhow, I always walk past here and thought this place is much larger, but in reality it's smaller and cozy. Kinda reminds me of a European bar of sorts especially with the outdoor patio. Drink options are standard. I smelled the flatbread pizzas from the people sitting next to me and it smelt very tempting. I obviously had to pass, but it seems like a good place to return to in the future. Good number of TVs to watch the games too. read more

Just had breakfast with my family at this restaurant. We ordered from the Express Menu for breakfast and got Chicken BLT and coffee. Everything was good and the staff is nice. read more

Excellent service and a welcoming vibe! I pretty much only come here for happy hours, so not sure how much that changes at other times in the day, but I loved it. Great tacos ($9 for 4 at HH) and tasty martinis. read more

Came here on Thursday after completing some business nearby for happy hour. The place is quaint with a full bar and kareoke everyday! As well as happy hour. It was Country Western Thursday so I bought a hat to enjoy the deals on the drinks and shots, plus I thought it would be cute to wear a hat. Happy hour is great and so was the service. I had the Jalepeno margarita and I liked it. I also ordered the truffel fries, there were very good. And shrimp tacos were also good and flavourful. Shots of casimogos felt watered down. I would definitely go back for happy hour and to try more food. I reccomend it. The vibe was also good. read more

Popped in for lunch the other day. Great location. Nice place with seating out front and inside. I got a grilled chicken sandwich which came with chips. The chips were stale and some of them were also soggy from the pico that they put on top of them. The guac looked like something squeezed out of a packet. The sandwich was good. The server was friendly and attentive. And the prices were good. Overall it was an ok experience. There are a lot of other options in the area. read more

Jean-Mary was amazing. The place was clean and they provided good service. We had the shrimp quesadilla and shrimp tacos. The drinks were strong. We will be back. 4 stars because of parking. Do better Jersey City read more

I'm a long time patron and I've always loved the owner and the staff however...I was dancing to the music and apparently a call was made from the owner advising the staff to tell me to stop dancing. Yes. Refrain from DANCING!!! Like WTF!!! The staff is AMAZING and I feel for them. To ask a loyal patron to stop dancing is a problem. I'm not sure I can continue to support the establishment. read more

Drinks were good and the drink special made them inexpensive Food was ok overall, but I ordered a pesto gnocchi with shrimp. The price of the shrimp (posted as 6$) on the menu didn't match the price on the bill (7$), and the 7$ for the shrimp got me 6 small shrimp and was absolutely not worth adding. edited for clarity read more

Grove Station is our go-to spot for quick, cheap, and good drinks. You seriously can't beat an $8 espresso martini! Plus, the wings are AWESOME--crispy, flavorful, and always hit the spot. Great place to kick back without breaking the bank read more

This place is one of the worst bars that I've experienced .. Poor service, poor quality drinks and waiters

I came here because they said they had an espresso martini and I am on the lookout for some of the best ones. When I walked in it was fairly empty as it was around 1:45 on a Thursday. The bartender was very nice and spoke wheni walked in and asked me what I wanted and I told him and then he asked me if I wanted to open tab which I said no because I thought I would just have one and leave. Come to find out the espresso martini was so good that I ended up having 4. The bartender makes a special espresso for the martinis with the hint of vanilla that is to die for. It taste like espresso with a hint of vodka, but oh my is it strong and amazing. You would think because it's so light it wouldn't have the strong espresso taste but the look is deceiving. The best part was that the martinis no matter what time of day are only $8. After my second espresso, I decided I needed something to eat, and the veggie flatbread was good. Nothing to roast scream about but good I did forget to say no olives because I don't like olives. I told my brother about it and yes, we will be back. read more

They allow creeps to stay. I have been there twice and 3 drunk idiots would not leave me alone and made a scene. None of them were asked to leave. I feel bad for the bartenders who are great who have to put up with this shit all the time. I have worked in many bars and restaurants and the good managers kick out men who act like this. Grove Station welcomes them right in. The bartenders tried to intervene and gave one guy a warning. But if the manager really cared about keeping a safe and welcoming environment for women, they'd kick them out and not allow repeat offenders to come back. read more

We had such a great time here last night. Food was very good and so reasonably priced. Our server, Jean Marie, gave us stellar service with the most beautiful smile. He has style and grace and made us feel special on the last day of our vacation. ​ read more

No regrets. Simple no frills bar, great service, cheap drinks, easy spot for a big screen TV with whatever game is being shown. Don't expect a Lamborghini when buying a Honda, this is the place for a casual cheap cocktail/beer with friends, especially right next to the PATH. read more

Been here a few time. I don't know if it was because everyone was in the holiday spirit or because it was Country Thursday, but this bar was definitely jumping last night. I walked in and several people had on cowboy hats. Some people were wearing them backwards without realizing which I thought was funny. $5 hats and drink specials. Giddy up and grab some shots! read more

This spot was such a great time ! Also, lauren made my experience that much better! Thank you so much!

Where else can you go and feel apart of the whole drink making process!!! The staff never ceases to amaze when it comes to creating diverse drinks!!! And trust me im always asking for something new Grove Station is the new CHEERS and im glad that I walked in here 5yrs ago read more

The Grove Station - Lit MARTINI - Tacos Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

The spot is really cool, fun vibes! The food was really good, devoured all of it. We got the $20 pitchers of mimosa. Overall good restaurant but the portion size of the pitchers, wings and nachos are small. I guess the price makes sense but even for the price, I feel like portions are small. Service was fine, she was nice. read more

The owner said he would have the India vs Pakistan cricket match on with sound but halfway through the match he switched the sound to music to cater for "the bar audience". Most of the people at the bar were there for the game. This simply doesn't seem like the spot to watch a game if the owner is going to sell out for the general crowd They also give pretty small portions and their food is average. This place is not worth the any hassle read more

Grove Station is a great place to enjoy whether to start or end your night! Come here for a quick drink before heading into the city or take one last shot before you go home. It's fast service and you'll always leave satisfied. Great drinks, great people, great vibes. Wings, sliders and or Flatbread are great! They have a fantastic Happy Hour and themed nights. read more

Had a GREAT time there!!!!!! The food was EXCELLENT and the drinks were VERY, VERY good!!!! thanks to Fiona and Louis for making everything perfect for my family and I that day. definitely will be coming back and I've already told most of my friends and family to come here as well!!! I will be back sooner than later, I really love it there!!!! read more

vibes great. bartenders great. management sucks :) great authentic "chill jersey city experience" for a short time before owners/higher-ups berate the wonderful bartenders and other workers in front of you. grove st. bar management do not hesitate to treat their workers disrespectfully in front of customers. lmao. who would want to experience that when you just want to have a relaxing or fun night out? go for the vibes, drinks, bartenders. leave (and tip) after a while because management ruins the vibe. read more

had a great time here the wings were fantastic service was stellar Jean Marie the best staff very friendly great prices would come back and highly recommend read more

This is such an amazing place with transportation literally two steps away. A nice spot to meet up with people for drinks and very affordable. Friendly staff and locals that will keep you coming back. Give this spot a shot you won't be disappointed. read more

9 months later and you still haven't added a dress code to your website. Your response is lame, your most recent reviews describing your treatment of the bartenders is even more lame. Your dress code can't just be applied on the spot when it's not listed anywhere else. Whats not clicking for you?? Venue?? This is not berghain its a dive bar at best with sub par food. Have the day you deserve! read more

Yet another poor experience here and I came back just to see if they would acknowledge the review and write the wrong that happened the first time. instead, I was met with the defensive manager, approaching me while I was on my own personal call, attempting to bully me and forced me to leave the establishment mind you I'm only being asked to leave because they got a bad review lol instead of trying to fix it and ask what happened or say maybe there was a miscommunication he intern forcibly and loudly. Try to escort me out of there. Call the cops, mind you I did nothing but order a drink quietly, but he wanted me to be removed by the police because I gave them a one star. This is exactly why we need to stop allowing these places businesses service industry people get away with murder get away with bad service and not show them that there's repercussions to this. I have a video of how the guy handled me. I have a video of how he approach me all recorded. I will continue to post on social media or media platforms if I need to get my point across because no longer will places give US poor service, I think that you're gonna frequent them or not going to tell people to come back to not to come back. It's the reason why they only have three stars already. read more

Good food, friendly bartender nice atmosphere. Karaoke guy slow as shit, started over an hour late and took forever between singers.

Ok for drinks.Our first experience was sooo much better.Beware of online menu with specials.All tacos listed at a discounted price and wait staff not aware.Listed Tacos must be only 1 kind also not clearly specified.Chicken quesadilla was edible.Flatbread tasted like soap,provolone w arugula leaves a weird aftertaste. read more

Lauren was the bomb! Such great service / she was cool and attentive and fun! Happy hour specials were good

A hidden gem in the heart of downtown JC. Right outside of the Grove St PATH Station, you'll find a great happy hour that starts at 10am and brunch that starts DAILY at 11am. Plus they have daily food specials including tacos for $2.25. I've been here a couple of times and I was very pleased at the pricing. Plus nothing is fried here. Chicken wings are oven roasted. Very reasonable for the area given that it's a simple neighborhood spot. read more

Me and my gfriend were there on Friday night for drinks. We really had a very bad experience because of your manager Louis. He was very unprofessional and a racist. I was wearing a cap . So Louis came to me and said it's our policy u can't wear caps inside. Fair enough I took it off n put on table. But just close like 2 tables away was a white guy wearing cap. So my gfriend asked him is this policy for every one or just us. So he gave us a dump answer saying that they were before us. Later second thing he told us that they are leaving soon. Seriously bro this bullshit you give me. Later I told him that you have to be fair to everyone. N later he told me that I make the rules here. Seriously bro thank God I have lot of patience. I have been working as a bartender for years. But I always treat people equally. But this guy was very racist. I hope the owner talks to this guy n teach him to treat people well. Sorry will never step again. Even let all my customers know how racist you people are. All the other bartenders even knew that he was wrong n even the security. I just told Louis on his face motherfucker may be you were not even born when I started working in this hotel industry. Just disappointed. read more

lf I could give no stars, I would. I was harassed another patron while I was waiting on my orders and I simply suggested that the bar no longer tend to the patron. I was approached with hostility after asking what the name of the "manager" was due to the fact that I had already reached out to the manager on duty about this and the bartender with freckles refused to provide her own name, and rushed to alert the other bartender not to disclose the manager on duty's name. This is highly suspicious and I had no choice but to report the venue to the BBC due to its shady practices. They risked my safety along with the safety of my partner at the time of our venture to the Grove Station bar and we were literally blamed for the way we were treated. I have reported this management team and they dismissed my claims. It is absolutely unacceptable behavior and the people I reported to simply don't care. read more
