Justin
2 weeks agoWent for the Knicks Game 4 ECF game, was full of Knicks fans so was a good atmosphere. Service was ok as it seemed like there were only 2-3 people running foods/drinks.
Karla Corcuera
9 months agoThe drinks and food were great. Waitress was nice too. Only complaint is that bartender was too busy with a large private event and couldn’t initially get the yummy drink they serve in a Capri Sun type of pouch.
Neil Brandmaier
2 months agoOne of our favorite places to go on a Saturday night for the early band. Exceptional food, great live music, fast and friendly service, and accommodating owners. To be successful in this business for 29 years is a testament to the owners' vision and leadership. Highly recommended.
Sheiland Florez
year agoI love this kind of spot for grabbing a beer. The place is huge. The bar is also big and the patio looks great for summertime. They offer live music and have different types of events. You have to stop by.
Lizzy Bjorklund
month agoJust Jake's was the perfect spot to host our party! Kristy and the whole team were so helpful in preparing, and the party itself was a blast with delicious food and drinks and an overall great vibe. Highly recommend!!

2 years agoWe decided to come to this place since they had a live band come later that night. The food was excellent! Hot wings are definitely a must at this joint! My table had fish and chips, Cheesesteak sandwich, and a Chinese fried rice with kimchi and sausage. Every dish was excellent and fresh. You can expect to spend about $12-$15 a plate. Warning, when the band starts playing the place gets VERY crowded. With almost no space to move. But the atmosphere was fun and inviting.

year agoI arrived here on a casual Saturday afternoon and they were having live music, a lovely band. I think it’s a great place to grab a drink and enjoy the atmosphere. It has a very irish vibe which I loved. The service was pretty good and they were having a lot of work! Very busy but cool space to enjoy with friends. I didn’t eat but they had a great menu. Very good experience.
Erika Gramsch
week agoFun local bar. Regular happy hour Monday- Friday 12-6. Trivia, karaoke, and other gun events regularly scheduled. Music on the weekends. Lovely outdoor patio area that is also pet friendly. Something for everyone.

4 months agoExcellent service at the bar (super sweet bartender) Deeeelish chicken sandwich and fries Yummy gelato Friendly patrons And AMI music!! Looking forward to returning very soon....for live music and more fun times
Francesca Cwynar
6 months agoWe have hosted multiple inclusive friendship dances at Just Jake’s and each is more exemplary than the previous. Ownership and management are always so gracious in accommodating our events and making them accessible to people of all abilities. They grant individuals who otherwise don’t have ample opportunities to socialize in a bar/restaurant setting the chance to let loose and have fun among friends. The appetizers are always a hit and Kristy is a dream to coordinate events with. Thank you thank you thank you!!
