Cherry Lounge

DJ set in a nightclub

What’s unique about Cherry’s Lounge is that it’s not only a vibrant nightclub, but a restaurant and lounge intertwined with the community. In addition to having a variety of live music and DJs, they also host events, such as the popular $2 Tuesdays. Thanks to their involvement in the community, this is a true locals’ haunt and a place worth checking out for yourself.

Porta

The Neapolitan-style pizza at Porta is enough to draw any food and drink lover to this cozy, casual and fun space. However, the thing that keeps them here all night is the downstairs area that gets converted into a nightclub complete with live DJ music and bands. Plus, the rooftop is outfitted with a full-service bar and pizza kitchen (!) so you can drink outdoors with friends.

South House

A Texas-inspired restaurant, bar and nightclub in the heart of Jersey City, the South House is one of the most popular local watering holes. It’s rustic, eclectic decor upstairs makes you feel right at home and the speakeasy-style of its downstairs bar and club gives you a one-of-a-kind nightclub experience.
