Your Favorite Irish Pub Off Route 23

Cold pints, hearty pub grub, and a wraparound bar waiting for you in Newfoundland, NJ.

About Us

Pull up a stool at Grasshopper Irish Pub, where the wraparound bar practically begs you to stay for one more round. Tucked along NJ-23 in Newfoundland, this is the kind of place where a Monday night fish and chips lands on your table in five minutes flat and the shepherd's pie arrives piping hot every single time. Over 1,500 reviewers have given it a 4.4-star rating, and the regulars who keep coming back will tell you exactly why.

Sit inside by the bar or grab a spot on the outdoor patio when the weather plays nice. The pub sits right beside local golf courses, making it a natural post-round stop, but you don't need a reason to visit beyond hunger and good company. Families fill the booths, friends claim the bar stools, and somehow the whole room feels like a neighborhood hangout that just happens to serve seriously solid food.

The menu runs the full range of Irish pub classics alongside crowd-pleasing American staples, all at prices that won't make you wince. Affordable, fast, and genuinely delicious are three words that show up in review after review. Parking fills up because the place earns it.

What We Offer

Grasshopper keeps it simple: show up, eat well, drink something cold, and leave happy. Dine-in service runs seven days a week starting at 11 AM, with bar service running until 2 AM on Friday and Saturday nights for those who aren't ready to call it a night. Reservations are available for groups who want to lock in their table.

Hosting something? The pub handles private events and catering for birthdays, holiday parties, corporate gatherings, and wedding festivities, so you can bring the Irish pub energy to your occasion instead of hunting for a venue. Specials and events rotate regularly, giving regulars another reason to check the schedule before they show up. Indoor seating and the outdoor patio give you options no matter the season.

From a quick weeknight dinner to a full-on celebration, Grasshopper Irish Pub has the setup, the staff, and the menu to make it work.

"We were in and out in 30 minutes, no joke. On a Monday at 6pm no wait, a few families eating. Food came in literally 5 minutes. Fish and chips were flaky and tender. Shepherd’s pie was piping hot, flavorful and huge. So happy we finally tried this place because we live so close, we’ll be recommending it to all our friends!"
