Entertaining for the adults, 9yo and 14yo boys really enjoyed it and want to know when we can go again. Amazingly they can serve 1/2 roasted chickens to a crowd of 1,000 and have it be crispy, succulent and piping hot. We were quite impressed...MoreHello Mike G., We're glad to hear you and your group had an amazing time at our castle with her Majesty the Queen.

It was a nicer spa when I first visited a few years ago. Clean and elegant. Great people working there. I went for a massage a few months ago and the masseuse was not good at all. I don't think she was qualified to be a masseuse. Also the place was not like it used to be. The waiting room in the back used to have nice amenities while you wait, but not anymore. I also had to use an alternate bathroom/changing room for some reason and it was a little room, ugly, and it had no toilet paper. The whole place had a different vibe this time. I won't go back there.

The highlight for my son was the rocks that glow in the blue light, that was worth the visit in itself. I never knew New Jersey was so full of rocks like this! There are also many displays about local artifacts, mostly from the European settlement of farms in the local area and how the Europeans lived in the area when they first arrived. The museum is in an old home. It's not a giant place, but it is worth a short visit, especially if you are from the local area or are interested in these neat rocks!

Sampler appetizer was barely edible but and a burger was burnt the first time and not really edible even the second time (props for trying a second time). Chips also were some of the worst ever experienced. Maybe stick with only drinks and skip the food but only if you are parking here, otherwise eat somewhere else. Stadium food is actually better!
Parking/shuttle was a decent alternative to parking at Metlife stadium and beat some of the traffic mess.

I grew up in East Rutherford and remember when this place was truly just a Tavern... not anymore!! Now it's been renovated (not sure when but recently) and it is a great place to go for food and drinks. It's basically split into 4 areas: the bar, small booth area off the bar, larger table section and a back room for parties. The menu is a pretty good one (see photos). I had the chicken parmigiana which is enough for two adults (see pictures) and my brother had the Tuesday night special Prime Rib for $14. The bread they bring out for an appetizer comes with the most incredible red sauce - I've heard the recipe had been handed down over 4 generations!! Prices are very reasonable. Great spot in town. The train to NYC is right over the tracks and this place is a great spot to chill, drink and eat!!
