Things To Do

We hope everyone falls in love with the Hoboken/Jersey City area the way we have. We have both lived here for over 8 years & of course, met here. We can confidently say there is nothing better than the food and views in the Hoboken/Jersey City area. Hoboken is a quick uber ride from the JC hotels - totally walkable too! Here are some of our favorite spots. NJ pizza and bagels - gotta have 'em! xx

Antique Bar & Bakery

122 Willow Avenue, Hoboken, NJ 07030

Antique is where we met, on our first date, January 2020. This spot will always hold the most special place in our hearts. If you get a chance, even for cocktails or brunch - this place is truly a historic Hoboken spot. Frank Sinatra vibes & 10/10 food & cocktails. Famous for their insane Bread Pudding. Billy's Favorite: Cookie Skillet Diana's Favorite: Spaghetti Squash Carbonara

Tenth Street Pasta & Pizza

1000 Willow Avenue, Hoboken, NJ 07030

Our absolute FAVORITE pizza spot in Hoboken, a must try! Diana's Favorite - Pepperoni thin crust Billy's Favorite - Naked Meatballs

South House

149 Newark Avenue, Jersey City, NJ 07302

Our favorite JC spot. Southern BBQ flare, great food & cocktails - even better vibes. All the bartenders are mixologists, so cocktails are a must try.

Razza

275/277 Grove Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302

Top sit-down Wood Fired Pizza spot in JC - featured on many food blogs and top Jersey lists

The Hive

615 Jersey Ave, Jersey City, NJ 07310

JC & Hoboken locations The Hoboken location is known for their famous Cinnamon Buns (Blake Lively recommended, iconic) - if you're up and at 'em early on Friday/Saturday or Sunday morning, get in line by 7am. They sell out fast!

O'Bagel

600 Washington Street, Hoboken, NJ 07030

Famous bagel shop, try the Bee Sting!

Orale Mexican Kitchen

1426 Willow Avenue, Hoboken, NJ 07030

Our favorite upscale Mexican Spot -- Hoboken & Jersey City Locations but Hoboken is for sure the best vibes

Lokal Eatery & Bar

2 2nd Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302

Right on the water in JC, great skyline views. Great spot for cocktails and small bites

Taqueria Downtown

236 Grove Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302

Hole in the wall spot for Mexican & (dangerously strong) Margs

Olivia's

1038 Garden Street, Hoboken, NJ 07030

One of our favorite date spots, with great outdoor seating - a good brunch spot too

Liberty State Park

1 Audrey Zapp Drive, Jersey City, NJ 07305

Amazing city views - a favorite walking spot of ours

Pier 13 Hoboken

1301 Sinatra Drive North, Hoboken, NJ 07030

If you are coming in early and have some free time on Friday, the Pier in Hoboken is filled with food trucks, amazing views of the skyline and drinks

New York City

New York, NY

NYC is right across the water. While we think there is plenty to do in Hoboken/JC - if you want to be a tourist for the day, the Journal Square Path Station is just a few blocks away. There are also ferries from Paulus Hook and Hoboken!
