1973 fast forward to 2024. Didn't skip a beat or dropped the ball. Still the same as it was yesterday the day before the decade before and on an on. This truly is a much visit and enjoy the flair that you get with a burger or any other items on their menu. Service is like a well oiled machine. Nothing left undone. The atmosphere is of a time gone by. But nevertheless enjoyable. You must visit. Many of the places such as this have all but disappeared.

Authentic hole in the wall bar. The burgers are great. They also put out pickles and peppers for free. So tasty. I make it a point to try and stop by when I'm in town. The place is hopping at lunch don't be surprised if see pd, fd, etc eating there. The service is good as well

These burgers are legendary! The giant ball of ground beef that they squish into a patty is epic and makes the patty super tender. It's been ten years since I was here and it's better than I remember!

If you think you've had the best burger of your life, you haven't had a krug burger! Softball sized,sizzled perfection!!! The wings are also a must with the house secret sauce! And the service is second to none, 10 stars!!!Parking: Enough to accommodate the people attending but at times crowded and a bit difficult to find

Good food and drinks, friendly service, and welcoming atmosphereWe were told that we had to go to Krug’s for the best burger. We went with the bacon cheeseburger and the burger with pastrami, with a side of onion rings to share. Since the menu said it takes half an hour to make a burger, we got chicken fingers and French fries to start.Chicken fingers & French fries: good, nothing extra special. The fries were steak fries and not the best. Came with a honey mustard sauce that was heavy on the mustard.Bacon cheeseburger (medium): so good. Not the best I’ve ever had, but thick and juicy and perfectly cooked. A ton of bacon, which is never bad.Burger with pastrami: the pastrami was fried, I think? It was almost like bacon, and it was great. It’s a really unique burger and delicious.Onion rings: we ordered them because of a review that said they were the best someone had ever had. They were…good. You could bite and not have the whole onion pull out, but you had to bite down hard.Peanut butter old fashioned: delicious. Wonderful. Magical. They didn’t have cherries, but it didn’t matter. It was the exact perfect amount of liquor to make everything about the day and night better.Service: everyone was busy but alsoIncredibly nice and helpful. They weren’t necessarily around when you needed them, but if you asked for something, they were always happy to help.Atmosphere: it seems like a neighborhood institutions kind of place, and if I lived nearby, I would want to hang out here all the time to make friendly with the regulars and listen to the 90s music.

The Best Burger I have ever had in my life. Service was great as well. First time eating there and will definitely go back.

After hearing about how awesome these burgers are we had to venture to Newark NJ to try ourselves. The end result? Nothing outstanding. In fact I found the chop meat to be flavorless. The burgers are HUGE. So maybe that is what the hype is about. But I prefer taste over size any day. Even the fries were lame. Sorry.

We were visiting our son & always like to try new places. Had pretty good reviews so we gave it a try. Onion rings were very good but should be served with a dipping sauce of some sort. Shrimp was delicious & burgers were just "Eh"..service just sucked!!! Only time our waitress came over was to give us our check & a box wasaayyyyyy too small for our leftovers! I understand if you're busy but at least make an effort to act like you care about your customers. We still left a good tip. Against my better judgement ...‍
