Reviews for Boxcar Bar in Short Hills, NJ
The ambience and service allows the customer to believe that anything is possible while dining here — even a wedding!!... (Recently tied the knot at this special, rustic modern venue). The staff members possess strong communication, and the ownerShaun rolls up his sleeves and leads by example! Krystle and Anthony put their guest’s needs ahead of their own and create anexceptional customer experience. Thank you!!! Read more
If you’re looking to enjoy a nice meal outdoors or grab a drink with some friends after work, this is the place to do it.... There’s live music most Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Nice drinks, appetizers, and mains! Staff is very friendly as well. Read more
This place could be great. If that guy Sean wasn't so incredibly and repeatedly rude. If they had more than 4 tables inside on... a windy Saturday evening. If those 4 "reserved" tables weren't empty the whole time we froze outside, if they got the orderright, and maybe tried the food they're serving to make sure it's worth eating. I wanted everything on the menu but afterordering fish tacos (without onions and it being served with onions, though quickly replaced with a new order), I was verydisappointed by the sad little tacos with dry, tough tortillas. My sister's pork tortillas had no flavor. Kids house-made fishfingers and fries were good. Shrimp dish and mushroom ravioli were fine. I would still give it another try but only on a nightSean isn't working and the weather cooperates. Read more
My friends and I got together after work for drinks and food. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. At first I didn't... see where the restaurant was but it is located right by the train station. I walked in and found some seats by the bar where wesat. Amy was our bartender and she was good. I only drank so I had Merlot. My friends got food and drinks which they enjoyed.There is no happy hour here fyi. The bill wasn't too bad. All in all we enjoyed our time. Read more

WOW, WOW, WOW. The best dinner and drinks we’ve had in a while. Super attentive staff and the owner is on premises checking in... on all his guests. The seasonal cocktails and craft beers were great. Crystal our server had great suggestions and checked on usseveral times. Super fresh ingredients and house made.. everything! Mahi mahi tacos and station burger did not disappoint. Theloaded tater tots were some of the best we had and they were huge. Wish that we lived a little closer so this could be amainstay for us but we’ll definitely stop in next time we’re in the area. Thank you Sean for a great evening! Read more
What about awesome concept for a restaurant, there is a bar and a few tables on one side of the building, and when the train... station closes they turn the other half into a dining room. Very cool, and they have plenty of outdoor seating as well. Great bar with local brews on tap, and a very good bourbon selection. The food was amazing. The loaded tater tots, wings, pizzas, burger and fries were all excellent. The staff was second to none, attentive and informed about what they had tooffer, and they couldn't have been friendlier. You won't be disappointed here! Read more
This historic train station, still active, was converted into a restaurant/bar, which has a wonderful unique atmosphere, one can... hear the train arrival/departure announcements while enjoying their favorite fare. I strongly recommend stopping by when in theneighborhood to savor one of the delicious menu options and drink selections. Read more
