Your typical dive bar located on a relatively busy street. You have a few spots in the front, or the small side lot, and that's about it so carpooling is recommended. Turns out, this place is super dope to hang in. There are specials throughout the week, but my fave is Weds is Ladies Night ($5 Maritinis) and karaoke with live-music on certain days with local artists. 2/2 Food My favorites so far: Apps: lobster eggrolls, buffalo chicken bites, entrees: classic ribeye, and burgers (the rolex, and the Texan). All those items listed has been consumed sober and drunk, and both times were fantastic. The one thing to fave about though is the classic ribeye, its under $20, massive, and can feed 2, what is there not to like? 2/2 Service My favorite bartender is Jason, he is wonderful honestly. He keeps those drinks comin' and keeps the vibe going. Nonetheless, all of the staff here has been fab. The owner is usually around, always tending to everyone's needs. 1/1 Price Its a dive bar, so everything is decently priced, you honestly can't go wrong with these prices. You can get fed and drunk for under $40, so yeah I'm coming back. Happy eatings! read more

Great food , drink and beer selection. Perfect go to spot where you know food and drink is always solid. Outdoor areas is super cute too

Stopped here on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. We thought it was more of a restaurant but it is definitely a bar/pub. However food was very good and staff very friendly and attentive. read more

My husband and I came in for Tuesday Happy Hour. This place is super small, but they have a decent beer selection and like 7 TVs for sports. I'm reviewing in the winter, so I didn't see what their outdoor seating set up looks like. They had a few drink specials like a sale on well liquors and $4 glasses of wine. They also offered 1/2 price on nachos, pretzel bites and Mac n cheese balls. We got the nachos and boom boom shrimp. The nachos are huge and super messy, but delicious. The shrimp was good, but nothing to go crazy over. Definitely get a lot of bang for your buck. We'll be back to try more food! read more

Three words, Tony, James, & Jeff! Okay okay.. so that's three names. Let's try again... CHECK :::claps::: THEM :::claps::: OUT! Ambiance: Let me start out by saying, the inside is even better than the pictures. The renovation done on this place is definitely impressive. It's got a clean and modern feel. That arctic white subway tile on the bar is gorgeous especially with the blue neon downlighting. The silver painted antique silver ceiling is drool worthy. Oh, and the floor tiles in the bathroom, Pinterest Quueeeen status! Oh and did you know it's called The Yard because they do, in fact, have an unreal Yard in the back!? Tony showed us the space and told us about his fire pit, outdoor bar, corn hole of your dreams ideas! Boy, I know we just entered fall but can someone bring Spring ASAP!? Food: We started with the shrimp toast appetizer. It was delicious!! A bit pricey for bar app and 5 shrimp but worth it! Yum yum Second up, the fried chicken sandwich and the beet salad. Both very good. The grilled chicken in the salad was moist and flavorful. Thank God. Nothing worse than sad dried out chicken in your salad. Drinks: James has a hell of a Guinness pour! The absolute and soda was nicely made as well. The prices are a little steeper than I'd hope for but pretty typical of the area. I'm hopeful they'll kick some weekly drink specials into gear soon! Service: Now here's something I can always get down with, a group of individuals who are happy to be there!! Tony James and Jeff were all super down to earth and a pleasure to speak with. Can't wait to see what else these guys bring to the table with this brand new spot. You've officially got two huge fans. Signed always, Your buddies up the block, Brianna and Andrew Treubig. See you soon. read more

I had never been to Haledon before, but when my girl booked a TV series shooting in nearby Verona, I Yelped local places for a top notch burger and The Yard glowed bright with its hefty 4.5 star average. I can see why people dig this place: It's divey but not dirty; the staff and patrons are super friendly; the owner Tony is on site and genuinely cares about your dining experience. We went with the aforementioned burgers -- and I'm happy to report their quality matches up with the reviews. The "burger" is actually two juicy burgers packed together on a bun and mine was loaded with cheese and crispy bacon. The extra pickles on the side were so good, we had to keep them coming. Some restaurant owners act like a five star review is harder than getting a 10.0 in Olympic gymnastics but that's absurd! Give me great service, great food and a great atmosphere and BOOM, here's your FIVE STAR review! Take that to the bank, Tony! read more

Best bar food in NJ IMO! 1) Rib eye steak with potato's and vegetables - 10/10. Honestly, one of the best rib eye steaks I ever had. 2) Buffalo chicken bites - 10/10. It also is bacon wrapped. 3) The Cajun fries - 10/10. It is a very large portion, make sure you have a friend to share. read more

Awesome place to just chill or have a quick bite. Wonderful staff, can't wait for summer!

Delicious prime ribs on Thursday, with mash potatoes and fresh vegetables ( not the frozen kind )

Interior looks great newly renovated inside, even the bathrooms look nicer than all the other bars in town. When it comes to service everyone is very friendly they introduced themselves personally and took care of us. As for the menu it is very different, you would be surprised to what you would see on there compared to the local bar menus. I wanted to play it safe and got a burger, the bartender recommended the Texan burger and it was awesome, no regrets getting that. Fries included with the burger and I was given a good portion size and they were great. My fiancé ordered wings (Thai chili flavor) he was satisfied with the taste. Ordered carne asada tacos and they were awesome. read more

Emelyn was the best hostess by far she made our experience fun and entertaining she kept me laughing the whole time I was there

Food is good for bar food. Great drinks especially their Bloody Mary! Service is hit or miss depending on how busy they are... weekends are tough. Music is usually a bit on the loud side but it's a great place to socialize and grab a cocktail or beer. read more

Have not been to the actual restaurant but it is my go to for takeout. The menu is not big which isn't a bag thing. Their burgers are the best in town. read more

I was really excited to try this place after seeing all of the great reviews posted to this page. The menu also looked amazing and I was in the mood for wings I split some Old Bay, Roasted Garlic and Buffalo with some friends. Unfortunately, they were nothing special. The portions were ok, but the taste didn't have me over the moon. I'm looking forward to giving this place another shot since so many people seem to love it. read more

Loved the food, drinks & music. It's a small spot but worth it! And now they have additional parking which isn't far from place.

Food was decent for a local bar as well as drinks and service. The thing knocking down to 3 stars was the fact that they added gratuity to a party of 2 (in addition to a credit card charge)...seriously? Good thing I looked at the check, incredibly uncalled for, will not be back unless that is fixed. read more

Great food and a really great atmosphere. The staff is super friendly and attentive. The wings are my favorite but they do have a various great food options. read more

Wanted some food late at night this past Friday and this place was open. It was pretty crowded, but I can't complain. There was seating inside, and the staff was very attentive and kind. Got an espresso martini and it was pretty good! Asked for food recommendations and ordered based off that. The wings were top tier get mango habanero. The prime rib sandwich was mid but I'm not mad. And the surf and turf tacos were really flavorful, especially the sauce they used. Def liked this place and would go back if I lived closer read more

Great place for watching the game and to have a great meal and awesome drinks!!!I love the atmosphere

Bacon Mac and cheese needed a little bit more bacon or some flavor, they should pair it with their yard sauce which was a tasty tomato based sauce instead of the cheese sauce it comes with, in my opinion lol. Onion rings crunchy and wings were great! Our waiter was so sweet and attentive, I wish I remembered his name! Definitely will be back soon. read more

This was my first visit to The Yard. It was a Friday at 12:30pm. I took a seat and ordered a Yard Burger. They also have a daily specials menu that may include a pasta dish. I was admittedly disappointed when the burger arrived. It was so puny in size. I hate writing this review because the owner was so nice and concerned for my well being. Although the burger had small dimensions, it was, at least, thick. Think of it more of a meatball shape rather than a flat patty. The fries were of the worse quality, sticking together and crumbling apart. Great atmosphere though. read more

Ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and bit into a large bone. Tried to finish the sandwich but couldn't

Had the lobster egg rolls & yard spiced wings both were delicious . Had the classic burger and my husband had the Rolex burger WARNING excellent and it's automatic ically a double burger patty which was to big for me and gave the extRa burger to my honey. Excellent place will go back to try other goodies on the menu. Bartender sorry we don't remember her name but she was a sweetheart and very attentive . Great new place in the area! read more

Lucky us! Just saw the waterfalls in town and all were hungry...quick search brought us here, the reviews didn't lie...great food! Lots of TV's on above the bar, plenty of tables and some outside (it was raining so we opted to stay indoors haha). Had the pesto chicken sandwich w/o the bun and a side salad, top notch! Others had Yard burger, salad, and Philly cheesesteak w/sweet potato fries, done just right. Glad to come here and support local since we are visitors (instead of hitting up the big chains at the mall). read more

I visited The Yard on November 3, 2023 it was during Happy Hour. I asked the waiter was a Mojito apart of the Happy hour menu he said it was, so I ordered. My friend ordered the same drink, as well. When we received the drink , it look good, mint was there but it was not good at all! I returned the drink, the waiter ask what does it need well being I'm not a mixologist, I went on my phone to look up the ingredients. The ingredients shown mentioned sugar, which I suggested might help, but in all honesty, the Bartender was clueless and being that we were sitting next to ppl that we were talking to also knew what a mojito was I literally ask one of them to taste what was given to me they also said it was awful. The bartender was quite Arrogant, and was not interested in customer service at all, he had the nerve to say, if you don't like it leave! I had no problem accommodating his outburst! I certainly let him know I had no problem leaving! A female manager came over to my friend and I quite apologetic, stating she was a manager and that she would spk to him! Make no mistakes I'm not a rowdy individual but I am an assertive wmn who knows what I want and like. The drink was horrible period! Nothing was offered to replaced the drink. I've been visiting this establishment since it's inception, for the most part, the waiters are friendly the food is good however this particular bartender Is awfully, rude, with a chip on his shoulder that's larger than his pea size brain! It's people like him that ruin the atmosphere of a great place!!! read more

New place my first time there. Amazing food! Wings are top notch, fresh, multiple sauces to choose from, pretzel bites very buttery and a cheddar sauce served hot, absolutely delish. Burgers were perfect, and my brisket sandwich was unbelievable. The people there were extremely accommodating and friendly. Very clean restaurant and bathrooms. We will be back for sure!!! Dessert was also different and tasty, not the usual premise crap that gets defrosted. Small and well done bar, drinks were exactly what you would expect. read more
