Reviews for The Archer in Jersey City, NJ
Came in with high expectations but the experience was disappointing sadly. We got the smoked boar perogies, duck burger and the... spicy elk meatballs. Only three small perogies came with the dish and I could barely find any meat in there! There was way toomuch crust and no meat. The drinks were good but nothing spectacular. The specialty craft burger was flat and there was Kraftcheese slices in there??? The last meal was the spicy elk meatballs and it came with three meatballs, wasn?t a lot for the pricebut it was filling to a degree. It was probably the best dish, but it wasn?t spicy at all. All in all the flavours were greatthe portions and sizes were just? beyond disappointing. The duck burger left much to hope for especially, there was barely anyonions and the bun was deflated. The place is nice and I like the ambience. Service was good too. Read more
Reincarnated version from the original is getting there when it comes to cocktails. I will definitely give stars for the vibe,... bar scene, late nigh timings and small live bands to boot. Read more
Went last night around 10:30 for a last minute dinner to celebrate my promotion. Every other bar in the area said their kitchen... was closed but recommended we try this place. We felt awful for coming so late but they did not disappoint at ALL. The food wasamazing, the ambiance was great and the service was fast. The prices were awesome too. We spent way less than expected. I gotthe duck poutine and it was amazing. My problem with jersey city food is that there's usually no seasoning at all. Very bland.But this place does it right. I'll definitely be back...maybe even today lol. Read more
Outstanding bar and restaurant! Massive drink menu - if you can't find something you like, head straight to the doctor and have... your taste buds checked. Creative cocktails and delicious food to go along with them. Can't wait to visit again! Read more
You can always count on The Archer for something uniquely delicious. Whether it?s food or drinks. Highly recommend if you?re... down to eat anything other than your everyday protein (chicken, beef, etc) One of the dishes we got was cold when it got to ourtable, but they brought out a warm one after we asked them.

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 goodselection of cocktails and I?d said it?s above average. Definitely better than many other spots in a 3 blocks radius. Wasn?thungry but decided to order some food anyway to complete the experience. I wasn?t expecting much but was blown away by the pastadish and chicken liver moose with pretzel bread. Both dishes was well executed. 1 star ding as the service was not attentiveenough and i had to go out of my way to get service. Read more
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 torecommend the cocktail. Something in tall glass but what they recommended was not what I asked for. They did take the drink backand 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 superfast and then was super slow. Food - the blue cheese burger was pretty tasty but not something special and salad also was goodbut not amazing. Overall, 3/5 food. Read more
Great place for drinks. Their cocktails are pretty good, the space is nice and moody. What you?d expect from a cocktail bar. I... had their Rum Espresso Martini, Old Fashioned and Negronis. Everything was great, definitely recommend if you?re looking forgood cocktails. Read more
