Things To Do
Pilsener Haus & Biergarten
Pilsener Haus was our first Hoboken date! Pick from dozens of craft beers, dig into their GIANT baked pretzel, and maybe grab some brats for the road. PSA they have igloos in the winter
Urban CoalHouse Pizza + Bar
Urban Coalhouse was our go-to bar when we lived uptown. They have delicious artisan pizzas, oven baked wings and great drinks to choose from including homemade sangrias. Fun Fact- Cory and Noelle won Trivia under team name "Prada"
