Brick City Vegan Newark (Formerly known as Urban Vegan)

👍👍 Incredible vegan food!! My partner and I don't branch out much in terms of food bc most North Jersey vegan food we've tried hasn't been great. I'm so happy we decided to come here!

Method Climbing Gym
Rock climbing gym
👍👍 Arguably one of my favorite climbing gyms in this area. The coffee shop is AMAZING, hands down the best coffee I've had since I moved from here from WA state. Tons of boulders that are reset every week to keep things fresh. I wish I lived closer so I could come here more often.

Cornbread Newark
Soul food restaurant
👍👍 This Brooklyn foodie is now in love with Newark because of Cornbread Farm to Soul Restaurant. Let’s start with the mac and cheese. It was cooked to perfection. That cheese blend was so gooey and had a nice crust on top. Now on to the meats. The chicken and turkey wings were tender inside but had tha...
