Great dive bar with friendly service and great food. They all are good with the haledon community and fundraising for the high school. Their wings are #1 a definite place to try!!

Overall **** You got to be kidding me with this place! Ridiculously affordable, good food, friendly service, while not the prettiest to look at, it's absolutely worth a visit and should go from an Underdog to a Favorite.
Setting ** Yelp said I had to try it but pulling up I thought this cannot be the place! Limited parking and practically windowless this looked very sketchy and I almost didn't go in. (I did later discover there is a parking lot just past it on the right)
Eventually I mustered the courage, partly because I found a spot right in front, inside it is a complete dive bar, long and narrow, dark and garish complete with a pool table. It even had two old guys sitting at the bar milking their beers.
There is a long wall facing bar that seats about 20, 3 high tops and only a few dining tables. There is also a stage with a DJ booth in the back.
It's not pretty but it's pretty clean and relatively comfortable.
Service **** The bartender Bev was ridiculously pleasant and sweet, knows everyone by name and those she doesn't she was quickly making friends with. She seemed to love her job and had no problem making recommendations.
At 6:30 they switched bartenders and Bev asked me to cash out. Nicole (?) took over and she was a bubbly bundle of joy to everyone walking in but she seemingly went out of her way to completely ignore me so I left.
When I first arrived it was mostly older folks there but by the time I left a younger crowd started coming in.
Food **** Admittedly I didn't go big but is was "Taco Tuesday" and at $1 each I couldn't resist. You can get hard or soft shells, I went for the hard shell, they weren't amazing but still darn tasty. I was pretty full after those but I couldn't turn down a deep fried Hot Dog on a warm bun with Fries for $4!!!
I know I didn't give you much to go on but based on what I did have and the obvious care taken cooking those simple items I am pretty confident that most other items are going to be good.
Value ***** C'mon just look at the menu prices in the photos I uploaded and add in $1 Taco Tuesdays!!!! -

I come here all the time for the bar food it's so good! They have good deals during the week too, like for happy hour. It is a very lively place during the school year because William Paterson University is nearby, on Thursdays they have a DJ come in and it's jam packed with a young crowd. The bartenders are very kind and attentive!
Try their special dog bowl drink, it's fruity but will do the job! -

Food here is awesome! Prices are good. DJ , Karaoke, drink specials, backyard area, friendly service and the management regularly will help with fundraising in the community.

Nice spot food is good. Can get a little crazy but most of the time is a good atmosphere. It's a nice spot to meet up before you head out if you live in the area.
