Our Story

More than a bar—
it's your corner of Newark.

We opened Central City Bar because Newark deserved a place that felt like home but poured drinks like a pro. No stuffy atmosphere, no overpriced menu—just good people, cold beer, and cocktails made with actual effort.

Whether you're grabbing a quick pint after work, celebrating a Friday night with the crew, or just need a quiet corner for your morning coffee, our doors are open and the stool's waiting.
