Few things taste better than a burger and a beer on a warm Friday afternoon. In fact, the only thing that might have that scenario beat is a free burger and a beer on a warm Friday afternoon. On Friday, March 7th, two Hoboken bars are serving up just that with Hoboken’s first-ever Free Burger Friday. From 5PM-10PM, all burgers on the menu at Texas Arizona and River Street Garage will be completely free for any patrons dining in. You’ll still have to pay for that beer, but fries come included too. Keep reading to learn more about Free Burger Friday, happening March 7th at Texas Arizona and River Street Garage in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Event Details

No, this isn’t an early April Fool’s Day prank: The Light Group, the restaurant group behind Texas Arizona and River Street Garage, is hosting its first-ever Free Burger Friday in Hoboken. This means that on Friday, March 7th, every burger (fries included) at these two spots will be free from 5PM to 10PM. A peek at some of the options:

From Texas Arizona:

• The Classic: an 8oz. Burger topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, + onion
• TAXZ: an 8oz burger topped with pepper jack cheese, sauteed onions, poblano chilies, + chipotle aioli
• Texas Turkey Burger: an 8oz burger topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, + cheddar cheese
• River Street: an 8oz burger topped with pepper jack cheese, bacon, shredded lettuce, + the signature TA sauce
• Cali: an 8oz burger topped with pickles, avocado, bacon, swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, + Russian dressing
• Bang Bang Shrimp Roll: crispy fried shrimp tossed with bang bang sauce and scallions, served on a Cuban roll

The special deal applies to dine-in orders at Texas Arizona (76 River Street) and River Street Garage (80 River Street) only, but there’s no additional purchase necessary. Reservations are encouraged, but not required, and can be made here.

Beyond the Burger Scene

Texas Arizona and River Street Garage aren’t the only downtown bars under The Light Group umbrella. Several Hoboken hot spots like Green Rock, McSwiggan’s, and The Waiting Room are part of the locally-owned restaurant group. Saku, an upscale sushi spot uptown, is another member of the family.

At the helm of this Mile Square empire is former MLB pitcher Patrick Light, who continues reimagining Hoboken’s nightlife scene. Free Burger Friday is the most recent of several fun initiatives, following the success of The Waiting Room’s seasonal pop-ups and Patrick’s “reverse cover” model where, instead of paying a cover fee, Hoboken bars will pay you to attend.

Beyond the burgers, Texas Arizona and River Street Garage are go-tos for a fun night out in town. Texas is a longstanding sports bar, with dozens of TVs streaming various sporting events at any given time. River Street Garage is one of the only live music spots in downtown Hoboken, with a consistent roster of local bands and artists every weekend.

Don’t forget, Texas Arizona will be hosting Free Burger Friday, on March 7th from 5PM to 10PM.
