Welcome to Rush Hour

A sports bar and kitchen in Sayreville Plaza — the game on every screen, honest pours and food that doesn’t cost a fortune.

TVs on every wall, a forty-foot wood bar with twelve taps, and a full kitchen and grill that runs late on weekends: wings, smash burgers, $3 tacos and plates from $7.99. Lunch on your break, the game with your crew, or a date night that doesn’t break the bank. And through the brick, the thing nobody else around here has: a room of seventeen tournament pool tables, plus darts and ping pong.

Come play
the orange table

A custom Diamond, built for us and dressed in burnt-orange felt, the same orange as the sign out front. It’s our coin-op table: no clock and nothing to set up at the desk. Walk up, drop in, rack ’em and pay per game.
