    Cold beer and hamburgers! Great fries and onion rings! Friendly staff! Good services. Parking on site!

    Fried bologna sandwich special

    Great dive bar atmosphere in cranford, near exit 136! They offer indoor and outdoor seating (when weather permits). Handful of beers on tap and a full bar. I recently had one of their specials - a grilled bologna and cheese sandwich - which was served with chips. Food is reasonably priced!

    Sausage pizza

    Honestly, I thought this was a truck spot when I first pulled up. It is the definition of a dive bar with the old school bar top and and taps that look like they are from a long time ago. I tried the burger and it was not good. The bread was stale and the burger had no flavor. It looked like a burger you would get at a school lunch. Also tried the thin crust pizza with sausage. It was not very good either and maybe a step above frozen pizza. I Maybe better to come in for a drink. There was a bunch of people in there so it may be a local favorite. I gave it a fair shot but not for me.

    For football, food, friends, and fun, Ye Old Rathskeller remains a local favorite! You'll find comfort in the old timey vibe that is probably referenced as "a hole in the wall" one too many times, but in the good way. If you can't decide, go with a burger! The service has room to improve, but that's kinda what you'd expect from the old school attitude of, "we'll get to ya when we get to ya!" The younger crowd needs to practice a bit more patience anyway! I'd pay them a visit!

    Burger with blue cheese!

    It's a new year and thank goodness &grain continues to deliver wonderful baked goods and food to…read morethe area. I lamented the loss of the "brunch crowd" in my last update and I still stand by that, but I have been happy to see some life returning to the interior of the eatery whenever I have visited. I am a firm believer in Third Spaces for any community, and I believe &grain is an ideal spot for one to adapt into their own Third Space. In addition to their amazing baked goods, &grain continues to serve delicious coffee. Last I checked, they used Stumptown beans which is one of my favorite brands ever. Be warned however, some of their items sell out FAST. Their mini-corn muffins are one of my favorite baked goods ever, but if you don't get there by around 10:15-10:30am they'll all likely be gone. I'm still advocating for the return of the peanut butter/chocolate bread but I may be alone in that. Service is always excellent. The Baristas are friendly and efficient. The kitchen staff is amazingly fast. My orders are always ready before I expect them to be. It's remarkable. &grain rocks. I'm glad it's still around and if you haven't visited you need to make it a point to check it out!

The tomato was the only they we tasted. The yogurt parfait needed a lot more honey. Overall not worth the prices. Too many other breakfast spots doing it better for a lot less.
