The Spot Bar and Lounge

The Spot Bar and Lounge
45 Commerce Street

Only two blocks from Newark Penn Station!

I was randomly walking through Newark (it's a habit) and I came across this place. At the time, it was closed with a Coming Soon! sign on it. Well, yesterday, I saw that it is open. It looks incredible! I think I am going to persuade some of my classmates to have lunch here tommorow and maybe I can take some pictures.

It looks really upscale, chic, and just an overrall cool spot.

Check the website for the menu.
Here are some reviews of the place so far. It seems really effin cool!

The Key Club


picture from newarkusa.blogspot.com

Name: Key Club
Location: 58 Park Place (By NJPac)
How to get there: Take light rail to Military Park stop and walk towards NJPac


I came across this place while trying to find out if Savoy's was back in business. Since Savoy's seems to be a no-go, this place will take over as THE spot on Park Place.. It looks like a hip and happening place. I see Jill Scott hosted a party there last month. I am going to check this place out and give it a more accurate depiction, but check this joint out!!!

Here is the menu. Be sure to check out their performance schedule as well.
