My favorite outdoor restaurants in Jersey City
If you are looking for a quick bite to eat after your arrival head to O'Leary's right around the corner from the house on Garfield Ave. They have a nice selection of burgers and finger foods plus a nice selection of beers on tap.
When you walk towards Pacific and Communipaw, you will see the latest hip restaurants and cafes that are popping up in my neighborhood. I usually start my walk at the Grind Shop and get a latte and a pastry and head over to Liberty State Park. For an afternoon snack, you can sit at the bar and enjoy a glass of rose and some home cookin' at Harry's Daughter. They have the best grilled mahi mahi salad.
Hooked is a fun seafood joint that is byob and casual dining. There is a club called the Factory next door happening on a Saturday night.
Sam a.m. is a great brunch place that is open from morning to early evening. The food is always delicious. I recommend their waffles!
Get a cup of joe and pastries for a quick meal before heading to Liberty State Park for a sun-filled day at the park. You can take a ferry to Statue of Liberty or downtown Manhattan.
