From the reviews
Great bar and restaurant in general but my review is particularly for the events. My husband and I had our wedding here and it was absolutely wonderful. We met with Fatima initially then worked with Alejandro throughout the planning process. They were so accommodating, helpful and kind.
Review for The Armory, Perth Amboy NJ — Engagement Party Venue I recently photographed an engagement party at The Armory in Perth Amboy, and it was absolutely perfect for the occasion. The waterfront views, elegant terrace, and warm evening light created a beautiful atmosphere for photos and celebration.
I love coming here! amazing food, amazing drinks, and amazing bartenders. i usually go to my favorite bartender Jorge. He makes the best drinks, super courteous, and very attentive. Everyone there is a vibe and so pleasant to be around!
The family and I celebrated a birthday and the experience was great. Staff always attentive the food came out together and on time. The sangria here phenomenal and the food on point. The prices may seem steep for some, however you are getting great quality. The portions worth it.
Getting married at The Armory NJ
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
