OT: Long time Sayreville/South Amboy eyesore going away?

South Edison used to have a lot of dives

I was in the perfect spot centrally located in Rahway 🍻

Rahway ? You don’t seem like a liberal kinda guy

Basically everyone at the bars I frequented were not

Of course let's not forget Sayreville Bar. Mussels with the salad bar.

More of a restaurant but they had a cool bar.

I asked about the mid 80s because I knew some of the coaches there back then.

certainly looks a lot different. Definitely an eerie feeling driving over the victory bridge. Big jump spot.

Other Sayreville news as they just indicted a guy for the shooting of the councilwoman. Hopefully they solve this one as the wiltsey case was never really solved in that town

What happened to the Sayreville Bar? Brother in law loved that place.

Gone. A block of new houses in its place.

Sayreville Bar was a customer on my Home News paper route in the 70s. The kid who turned the route over to me said "always collect from the bar on Friday afternoon." Turns out the reason was that there were half a dozen regulars at the bar who would, every week, say "Oh, you're collecting for the paper? Here, let me pay you."

I cried when Sayreville Bar closed - so many memories.

I thought they still did catering for a while after that

I believe you're correct.

Worked down in that area when they were building the waterfront park. I thought I heard that park was technically in Sayreville but you have to go through south Amboy to get to it

Decent pizza in that area.
Nunzio’s - then south Amboy delio’s and sciorintino’s (think they were just opening the south location ) .

Had my First Holy Communion party there in the mid 1960's. They catered my wedding reception. Dad managed their fast pitch softball team for years.
