What type of food you looking for? My brother lives in JC and is somewhat of a "foodie"

Anything really, just a decent meal and a cold beer before a football game.  I do like a good IPA though, and am good with anything from a good burger, pizza, steak.  I am not picky at all!

Zeppelin hall beer garden, Iron monkey(pricey but a sweet beer list) Hudson hall (pricey but great food and beer) and porta pizza are his recommendations. All are within walking distance.  Hes 5 blocks away from the school so he knows the area well lol

No offense to @fishnut (respectable list that it is), but go experience real Jersey City and skip the yuppie spots.

Park Tavern on West Side Ave., and Communipaw. Best burger in Jersey. Speaking as a life long resident (recently moved).

You will pass it on the way in to St. Peters Prep.

No offence taken, not my recommendations they are my brothers who lives in JC. Personally I've only been to JC once to my brothers place for dinner. 

Well make Park Tavern a stop next time you visit. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Lol

I would love to move back, but the city doesn’t feel the same. Way too congested (new construction squeezing more people in), and the traffic has gotten insane.

Around Prep, the area is a little better. Both areas have decent foot traffic when you would be there, so you would probably be fine. It is still JC, so keep your head on a swivel. There is no invisible fence that keeps crime out of “nice areas.” 

On that note, if you are not going to drive, Uber or take a bus, Park would be a bit of a walk to Prep.

Ahhh ... then you want the KFC on the corner of Communipaw and MLK.  AFAIR real bullet proof glass and lazy-susan style carousels to pass the food to the customers.

Thanks everyone!  Just curious, how safe is it walking around that area in the early evening, any concerns?

My wife goes to school at night in HCCC.  The area is fine during the day.   At night?  Prepare to be harrassed for money.  Bring pepper spray and a knife.

A belated but quick update.

They actually played the game at a field a couple miles away from St Peter's and we ended up at a local dive bar called O'Leary's Publik House.  It was a local place, with some very good IPAs on tap and the bar food was excellent.  Ended up having 25 or so of us there for the pregame.

The Korai Kitchen on Summit Ave has a nice Bangladesh Buffet and  is pretty good, interesting, and quick...

You must like Curry.   Spice Spirit on Bergen Street is pretty good, too.

      Yup I see. Looks like right now you can only purchase the 2023-2024 permit still. I assume won't be able to purchase 24-25 season permit until July.

      US Law Shield and email changes

      By Grima Squeakersen · Posted

      Just a heads-up for anyone who might also be in this situation. I joined USLS mid-April of 2022. Some time after renewing for 2023, I changed email providers, and dutifully reflected my new address on my account page. So, I have been anticipating renewal alerts at my new address, but those never arrived. I logged in to my account the other day, and was surprised to see that my subscription expired that same day. I went to my account main information page, confimed that my email address was correct, then went to the billing page, which showed my previous two payments, but which did not give me any apparent way to pay up for the new year. I requested support using the Customer Service form on the web site, but received no reply. Today I called their support number. Apparently changing the email address from my view of my account page did nothing to change the address that they use internally for billing purposes, including expiration notifications. Maybe they also use that address for replies to the support form, even if a different email address is entered there. Also, my account was set up to auto-renew and charge my credit card without my intervention, but that setting did not show on my account page in any obvious way. So, if you have USLS and have changed your email address since you last renewed, you might want to give them a call to ensure that they send renewal information to your correct address. The prospect of having legal coverage lapse while carrying in NJ was, for me, a less that confidence inspiring experience. I will note that the telephone-based customer service was excellent.

      Colorado Goes For Broke On Gun Ban

      By Grima Squeakersen · Posted

      F*n imbeciles. They know damned well (or should) that, even if passed by the Colorado Senate and signed into law, virtually that entire load of crap is certain to fail Bruen/Heller scrutiny, and probably sooner, rather than later (SCOTUS). What a monumental waste of time (of course, how much can a dip$h*t's time be worth, anyway?) and energy. I passed through Colorado a few times in the 70s, and visited some clients there in the 80's & 90's, and, even by the end of that period, I had the impression that it was politically fairly conservative (with a few exceptions such as Aspen). WTF happened?
