Newark is in New Jersey, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Getting around Newark is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across New Jersey's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

When you’re Down Neck, you have to stop by Krug’s. I stopped in to get a bacon cheeseburger and the secret wings. For such a tiny kitchen, they cook such quality food. All the staff are welcoming and friendly. I can’t wait until the next time I have an excuse to stop in.

It’s very hard to park here, despite the parking lot. It was worth the trip. The waitresses were the hardest working workers I’ve ever seen. They deserve a big raise.

One of the best burgers in NJ! Classic, old-school tavern. Staff is really friendly and helpful. Phenomenal cheeseburger and onion rings. Next time I’ll try the wings and cheesesteak because I’m told they are great too!

Krug’s Tavern: A Legend for a Reason, but Bring Your Patience (and Extra Cash) Krug’s Tavern serves up a truly excellent cheeseburger—charcoal-grilled patty, great bread, and incredibly juicy. However, a fair warning to anyone looking for a quick bite: these famous burgers take a long time to arrive. Be prepared to wait at least 20–30 minutes to get your hands on one. Fortunately, you can easily pass the time with a couple of beers at the bar while you wait. The Food and Value: Since I arrived around 9:00 PM, I decided to go with a green house salad instead of the usual onion rings or fries to keep things a bit lighter for digestion. One thing to note is that the burgers come with absolutely nothing on the side. While the burger itself is reasonably priced around $15–$17, most places typically include a side. Once you add your fries or onion rings, your "real" price tag hits well over $25, which definitely pushes it out of the "cheap burger" category. The bartender was kind enough to offer me some pickles and pickled peppers on the side. I wasn’t particularly keen on the cucumber pickles—they had a somewhat strange smell to them—but I did finish the hot pickled peppers, which we
