Given their close proximity to New York City, many Northern New Jersey restaurants have trouble competing with the city offerings. So in order to “make it” in this part of NJ, a privately owned restaurant needs to possess many things; a spotless, elegant dining room, outgoing, accommodating staff and, most of all, an unparalleled menu. The Horseneck Tavern does.
The Horseneck Tavern, which opened its doors about a month ago in North Caldwell, possesses all three of those elements. By employing both dynamic chefs with outstanding skills and extensive experience and a friendly, attentive service staff, the restaurant plans to serve its community for many years.

A Stable of Great Food
Horseneck Tavern officially celebrated its grand opening on Thursday, September 22. The restaurant welcomed guests from all around the state, offering them quality food, live music and terrific service throughout a long night of fun.
The Essex County eatery stretches across a quaint dining area filled with tables and booths of varying sizes, making it the perfect destination for either a celebratory evening with the family or a sophisticated date night with a loved one. The restaurant also offers outdoor seating, so patrons can enjoy the beautiful New Jersey weather while dining on some fine cuisine. The full-service bar is impressively furnished with a range of options to suit many cocktail needs.
As for the menu—Horseneck Tavern strives to distinctly separate itself from the increasingly common American-European hybrid restaurant. They employ chefs with varying specialties who collaborate on some of the most unique and delectable appetizers, entrees and desserts. The cooks always utilize fresh ingredients, which certainly makes a big difference; whether it’s tender steak, garden fresh salad or a juicy cheeseburger, each meal is crafted with care and expertise.
Horseneck Tavern is on 11 Bloomfield Avenue in North Caldwell; they are open every Tuesday through Saturday from 4:00 pm until 1:30 am. (Happy Hour happens every Tuesday through Friday from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm.) The restaurant welcomes guests from all over the NJ and Greater New York City Area to come try their menu.
