Burke's Tavern

Great food and service. Nice atmosphere, reasonable prices. The pizza was great and the wings were outstanding. Also had the fish and chips which was killer too! You won’t be disappointed!

What a pleasant surprise — it’s honestly surreal to visit places you once frequented as a curious youth. I’m talking about what once was HELL’S KITCHEN, a hipster neighborhood bar that is now a posh, beautifully curated lounge / restaurant — which is now BURKE’S TAVERN. This was an impromptu visit during a snowy Saturday — from beginning to end the experience was very overwhelming in the most positive way. From entrance to seating to the bar — from the subway tile and very carefully curated wood accents / furniture, to vintage tchotchkes and so much more — once you enter the locale, it really engulfs you with the ambiance and experience. Here is where it goes from great to magic… Luisa our bartender made us some of the BEST COCKTAILS I’ve had in a really long time! I had the Paper Plane w

Ordered the sliders… so good. Also ordered the espresso martini. Perfect. Highly recommend. Service was on point. No waiting .. was greeted right away. Will definitely come back when im in the area. Atmosphere was lively. Lots of chatter, music but super relaxed.

Burke's is a gem to say thr least. Obviously those who were in the know didn't let me in on what amazing food and ambiance. The shrimp with sauce...tasty. My chicken sandwich with slaw was flavorful and last but not least that blueberry cheesecake... My words will not due it justice! Definitely will be back great staff and treated us like we home.

Outstanding experience from start to finish. The service felt genuine and welcoming, the European inspired ambiance created a cozy vibe, and the Moroccan lamb meatballs were bursting with rich, unforgettable flavor. Easily one of the best spots in Newark’s Ironbound area.
