The Archer - Cocktail bar in Jersey City - 176 Newark Ave, USA

I really liked this place. As Chileans we usually eat a lot of seafood and finding an octopus well done in terms of texture, flavor and easy to cut is simply wonderful! we will be back! The drinks are very well prepared.

It’s a great place to hangout. I had the cocktails and it was amazing. There’s also live music after 7 PM. You should definitely visit this place if you are in Jersey City!!!

My fiance and I went to the Archer for after dinner drinks. The service was great. The drink menu had a lot of specials to choose from. We were both very happy with our choices. We did not order any food while we were there. So I cannot comment on that but this was a fun stop on our date night.

Despite having an interesting concept, the food here is very average. We got two appetizers to share and an entree each and my friend was very impressed with the hen dish she ordered which was vegetarian. But both me and my fiance were not very impressed with our meat options we ordered. He ordered the duck burger and I ordered the blue cheeseburger which was marked as a special. So it may not be on the menu permanently. Both of us got chips with our burgers and both of our orders of chips were stale. We did come at around 7:30 in the afternoon but the place stays open for a very long time so not sure why they were serving stale chips. All in all, we weren't too impressed by the meat options in this very meat forward restaurant. I did however like the pierogies.

A romantic ambient setting with some alright cocktails. Stopped by here for some drinks after dinner. Seemed very quiet from the outside but upon entry your experience is completely transformed. A nice dark ambient with good music. They had a good selection of cocktails and I’d said it’s above average. Definitely better than many other spots in a 3 blocks radius. Wasn’t hungry but decided to order some food anyway to complete the experience. I wasn’t expecting much but was blown away by the pasta dish and chicken liver moose with pretzel bread. Both dishes was well executed. 1 star ding as the service was not attentive enough and i had to go out of my way to get service.

I came here with my partner a few weeks before Christmas and we had their holiday drinks which were delicous. The decor was amazing- romantic winter cabin feel. The food was so tasty. I think I got a shephard's pie. Amazing food

Pretty good cocktails paired with some gamey meat. My friend who doesn’t eat a lot meat did not like it a lot as the menu is very meat centered. But I loved the wild boar pierogis and the salad with that was great. The ambience is pretty dim lit but goes really with the vibe they are going for

I went here with friends. I am giving 3 stars because the food wasn't that special and price was pretty high for what was served (and the fact that it is in Jersey City). Atmosphere - bit dark and loud for my liking. Service - I asked the waiter to recommend the cocktail. Something in tall glass but what they recommended was not what I asked for. They did take the drink back and served me something else but in the bill it was included. We asked to take it out and they did so. The speed is either super fast and then was super slow. Food - the blue cheese burger was pretty tasty but not something special and salad also was good but not amazing. Overall, 3/5 food.
