I'd rate 8th Street Tavern three and a half stars. Sports bar with lots of TVs all around including one mega screen comprised of nine smaller ones. Draft list had a mix of some crafts and some macros so everyone should be able to find something they like. I had a house Pilsner. Staff was nice and attentive. Service at the bar was super quick.

We've never not had a good time here. Food is actually decent as well (but don't expect too much from it)

This spot has recently changed owners/management and I have to say I'm liking the changes that they've made. Menu is updated and you can get some cool things like chicken pot pie, nachos served in a pie dish, vodka chicken parm pizza, and even a fat sandwich, in addition to some of the staples from the old hat like wings and burgers. In true sports bar style, it's a good place to watch a game because there are so many tvs, but also to grab beers or even have the staff shake up some cocktails. They take credit card now too (4% discount for cash, and yes there is an ATM on site).

I don't think I could recommend this place enough! It's by far the BEST and my most favorite bar in Hoboken. the bartenders, staff, drinks, food, music, vibes, etc. are all a 20 out of 10! Plus, you haven't truly lived until you've been at 8th for a 10 minute all too well sing along

There are SO many places to choose from when it comes to good food, drinks, and atmosphere in Hoboken but THIS is my go to! They have it all! Friendly staff and the revolving beer and food menu really make this place such a hit. If you're looking fun they've always got something going on. Bonus: great place to watch sports and never too loud where you can't also have a good conversation with friends. 10/10 protect this place at all costs! Get the nachos!

I don't think I can adequately put into words how special 8th Street Tavern is, at least not briefly. So bear with me. I grew up splitting time between Rhode Island and Hoboken (but further uptown) and never made it in here before I moved away for college. But when I moved back here after a long pandemic-forced break from going to bars pretty much anywhere, I had no idea that stumbling into the neighborhood bar across the street from my new apartment without cash (my bad) was going to lead to me finding my favorite spot in Hoboken (and maybe anywhere). The food is some of the best comfort bar food you can find anywhere, and in Hoboken that's a high bar. The craft beer selection is impressive, you can get big domestic draft in comically large and economical soup containers, and the cocktails are masterfully crafted --- there isn't a single bartender in the joint that doesn't know exactly what they're doing. I legitimately had my favorite birthday (ever) here. Fun and thoughtful events like Emo Night, Christmas in July and a special Monday opening for Game 7 of the New York/New Jersey Stanley Cup series have truly made this Devils fan's summer. And some of the staff are actually in a really good band (check out hey ashley on Spotify). Which leads me to my biggest reason for writing this review: The best part about 8th Street Tavern is the people inside it. Anthony and Mary have built a staff and an environment that is uniquely Hoboken yet so welcoming, and there's a really unmatched sense of community there. I have met so many wonderful people there and even three years later I've had people introduce themselves with "hey, have I seen you at 8th street?" elsewhere. I brought in friends from Rhode Island a couple of weeks ago who told me that they were surprised to find this bar I dragged them to in New Jersey is easily the coolest, warmest, most kick-ass neighborhood bar they've ever been to. For the first time in my life finally understand that the Cheers theme song isn't just sitcom shmaltz: it really is nice to go somewhere where everyone knows your name. Only complaints: Cash only (but that's changing at the end of this month so nevermind!), no Narragansett Lager (I will continue to lobby for this to be remedied) and the bathroom lines can get a bit long on weekend nights. All worth it though. But hey, if you've taken all this time to read this review and decide to step in and see a girl with red hair and winged eyeliner with an affinity for Taylor Swift and Paramore karaoke drinking a big soup container full of Kona at the bar, feel free to say hi and I'll share all my secrets.

Def a great spot to grab a bite and a drink. The place is big and very open and very clean. If you want tvs they got them. The wings are great. Staff was very nice. It's cash only so make sure you bring some. It's not exspensive and an atm on sight. My 2 nd time there and had a great time
