 Outdoor Restaurants
& Cafe's
Eating outdoors at a Hoboken restaurant is not the exception, but incredibly almost the
rule. As you will see from realhoboken.com's list of 39 restaurants that offer outdoor
seating under the sun or stars, there is just about something for all tastes, moods and
culinary inclinations. 340 Grill

from Miss Kitty's to this.
Cafe Michelina
Italian
423 Bloomfield St
201-659-3663

is finally getting out.
City Bistro
http://www.citybistrohoboken.com
New American Cuisine
56 14th Street
201-963-8200
Realhoboken review: Not worth the price but the rooftop and ambiance makes up for
it…barely. You just can't eat on the rooftop...it's for after dinner only.
Da Vinci Restaurant
Italian
411 Washington St
201-659-2141
Realhoboken review: Good place to bring your parents or grandparents- old school Italian.

East LA
Mexican
508 Washington Street
201-798-0052
Realhoboken review: It's good, but it's no Baja. The margaritas and outdoor seating help
make up a little ground on the indoor-only Baja.
The FarSide
American
531 Washington Street
201-963-7677
Realhoboken review: If you're in the mood for fried bar food, this is your place. Big
plants surround outdoor seating. We mean big…
Favia's Lite Cafe
Light Italian
208 Washington St
201-217-1999
Realhoboken review: Decent but nothing great, just like any food that is low-fat or diet.
The Frozen Monkey
Coffee, muffins, cookies, cakes, pastries, sandwiches and Tasti-D-Lite.
526 Washington Street
201-656-1311
Realhoboken review: The closest thing to Central Perk Hoboken can get. Great breakfast
food to boot and the music is always ideal for the atmosphere.
Gaslight
American
400 Adams Street
201-217-1400
Realhoboken review: The very definition of the word, "eh", but at least the
service is always excellent. Limited outdoor seating…
Green Rock Tap & Grill
Soups, Salads, Sandwiches, wraps
70 Hudson Street
201-386-5600
Realhoboken review: Everything tastes good because drinks are so cheap that the drunken
taste buds crave just about anything. Excellent wings regardless of blood alcohol content.
Nice outdoor happy hour crowd. If you're over 31, you'll feel old.
Helmer's Café
German specialties, Meat, Wurst, Sandwiches
1306 Washington Street
201-963-3333
Realhoboken review: Since it's the only German restaurant in town, we can say without
hesitation that they have the best wurst in town. Limited outdoor seating.
Hoboken Cottage
Chinese Cuisine
516 Washington St
201-798-6788
Realhoboken review: In the words of Nixon: "Oh, you'll pay…don't think you won't
pay!" but it's worth it.
India on the Hudson
North India Cuisine
1210 Washington St
201-222-0101

on the Hudson has free parking. 'Nuff said.
Illuzion
Upscale Japanese

Realhoboken.com: See "Hoboken cottage".
The Jefferson
New Italian cuisine
1319 Washington Street
201-686-9955

up some space over the summer.
Liberty Bar
Sandwiches, Pasta, Pizza, Vegetarian dishes
61 14th Street
201-222-6322
Realhoboken review: Excellent fries and burgers. Chicken dishes are better than you would
expect from a sports bar too. Friendly, flirty service.
Margherita's Pizza & Cafe
Italian
740 Washington St
201-222-2400
Realhoboken review: The biggest servings in Hoboken, just expect to wait for a table over
at 8th Street tavern almost any night of the week, especially for an outdoor
table.
The Madison Bar & Grill
Eclectic menu featuring seafood
1316 Washington Street
201-386-0300
Realhoboken review: Flowers aligning the outdoor tables makes it inviting. A little
expensive but lives up to the bill.
The Mile Square Bar & Grill
American cuisine
221 Washington Street
201-420-0222
Realhoboken review: Nice ambiance and romantic, NYC-esque lighting compensates for a very
average meal. Outdoor seating also good for the aforementioned people-watching on the
strip.
Oddfellows
Cajun
80 River Street
201-656-9009
Realhoboken review: Created a nice niche with the Cajun theme. Large tables and back
enclosed outdoor eating area make it good for big groups and
meal-before-going-out-drinking-in-the-city-via-Path-place.
Onieal's
American cuisine
Fourth St. & Park Ave.
201-653-1492
Realhoboken review: A bit small, loud, and easily one of the smokiest bars in
Hoboken…so sit in the back…Great service, above-average food. Limited outdoor
seating.
Precious
Chinese cuisine
128 Washington St
201-798-8827
Realhoboken review: The best Chinese food in Hoboken. Large outdoor seating area.
The Quays
Irish American cuisine
310 Sinatra Drive
201-656-2521
Realhoboken review: Easily a +$100.00 meal for two, but you will impress. Large helpings
and the chef should win an award if he hasn't already.
Robongi
Sushi
520 Washington St.
201) 222-8388
Realhoboken review: Experience a fine sushi place without waiting a month for reservations
at Nobu in the city.
Sinatra Park Café
Snacks and drinks
525 Sinatra Drive
201-420-9900
Realhoboken review: Given it is named after the Chairman of the Board, one has to wonder
why it isn't more than a glorified hot dog stand.
Sky Bar at Gerrino's
Italian
96 River Street
201-656-7731
Realhoboken review: Hands on service and classic Italian dishes. Rooftop is perfect for an
after-dinner drink or even first base if you get to that second bottle of wine.
Sullivan's
Bar and Grill
600 Washington Street
201-420-9849
Realhoboken review: Everything is cheap: the drinks, the food…it's the type of place
you loved in college. Limited outdoor seating.
Sushi Lounge
200 Hudson Street
386-1117
Realhoboken.com Review: Tremendous Japanese cuisine, intimate bar area, parking validation
(big factor for parents visiting), decent live music, take out and free delivery also
key...
Ted and Joe's
Casual American
219 11th Street
201-222-6670
Realhoboken review: Best hostess in Hoboken, Pamela Stengel. She'll make you feel like
Norm from Cheers in this perfect dinner and drinks starters place for any evening.
Texas-Arizona
Casual American
76 River Street
201-420-0304
Realhoboken review: The best people-watching place in town. Laugh at suckers getting off
the Path from work at this classic burgers and beer place.
Trattoria Saporito
Italian
328 Washington St
201-533-1801
Realhoboken review: Only second to Café Michelina in the "most underrated Italian
restaurant in town" category.
Tutta Pasta
Italian
200 Washington St
201-792-9102
Realhoboken review: A relatively large establishment. Fair at best, although the
thin-crust pizza is perfection.
Trinity
Irish/American/World Cuisine
306 Sinatra Drive
201-533-4446
Realhoboken review: If restaurants were given grades, this is the B+ of establishments in
the Mile Square. Views and atmosphere are very good, music is very good and the food is,
um, very good…just like a B+.
Zach's Oak Bar and Restaurant
Casual American
232 Willow Ave.
201-653-7770
Realhoboken review: A great second date place for those thin in the pockets. Dinner for
two with two drinks invariably stays under $50.00, and not too many places can say that.
Excellent desert menu.
Zafra's
Cuban Latino
301 Willow Ave.
201-610-9801
Realhoboken review: Always hopping. The Flan de Vanilla de Papantia is perfect outside on
a summer evening after a quality meal here. |
