Shortway's Barn

Prime rib was amazing. Good prices excellent service and cool atmosphere. I am definitely coming back!

Shortways Barn is always a good time. Anthony Puluse will be hosting his annual show on Sunday, June 26th @ 1:00. This year Anthony is also celebrating his graduation from High School, June 26th @ 1:00 at Shortway’s. Lots of unbelievable music is planned for the entire day. It is going to be a great day. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

UPDATE 6/26/22: Great “Very Hot” Day. Music was unbelievable. School of Rock Montclair, School of Rock Waldwick and Anthony Puluse and Friends put on a great show all day. I absolutely loved how enthusiastic the HouseBand from Waldwick was. They knew some of the songs that School of Rock Montclair had on their set list so Waldwick joined Montclair. The two HouseBands were very supportive of each other. It was a nice experience. Lots of people commented on how good the bands were and that all the musicians were amazing.

What a great place to stop by for a drink or dinner. Great service and atmosphere

Great place for affordable food drinks and kind staff

Burger cooked medium exactly correct. Bartenders and waitresses on top of everything! A+++

Wings are great, hit the spot. Waffle fries a must. And their Reuben sandwhich was honestly perfect with corn beef-bread was toasted, rations of sauerkraut, thousand island dressing, and the corned beef was on point. Will be back 👍

A favorite since forever. Was a Friday night staple when the kids were growing up. Now I enjoy the bands and fellowship whenever in NJ

Fun casual bar with great food and drinks. Live music also.

Hemingway wrote about the man and the sea and drinking; This is about a bar and the fries and the nachos. Equally poetic.

Syntax aside, idyllic fries and nachos will be had here, alongside stingingly cold beer and charming bartenders. They use real cheese on the nachos, and magic on the fries.

We took my husband here for a Father's Day surprise dinner because I saw they served wings. We LOVED this place. Very welcoming, great service and the food was delicious. Very reasonable also.
Highly recommend the Reuben, Meatballs, personal pizza and pretzels. The wings were also a hit! Definitely want to go back, even though we live 40mins away.

Great food. Easy going vibe.

Staff is friendly, food is awesome!!! Burgers are hand made not patties. Have all the games on, great bands when they have them. Great place to relax and unwind and not break the bank.

Driven by for many years. Just make a short lunch stop. Good food, friendly staff. Steak sandwich was really nice thin slices of steak, not shredded. I'm not a local so I won't be visiting at night but sure looks like everything it needs to be for a local evening dinner drink and watch the game place.

Cool local place still family owned!!

Great place to have fun. We heard a reunion of the Bernstein band. A lot. Of students from their classes in Ramsey were there. They were still a great band and the classmates great dancers. Their hamburgers were as terrific as ever. Good drinks and good service. A smoke stand is located outside.

Awesome atmosphere if you like a dive type bar with good beer selection, great food, and bands

Good food service and parking. Good atmosphere. Nice staff. Had a good time.

Excellent service every time I go, some of the best burgers I’ve ever had and a great atmosphere. I highly recommend Shortways!!!

This is the best place for amazing service, amazing staff, and some great food! We have found a place where we truly plan to be regulars! I can say hands down some of the best wings I’ve ever had.

This place is kind of a hidden treasure. I've passed this place a hundred times and only tried it for lunch about a month ago. Since then I've been back 3 times!! The food is great and there's plenty of menu options that will satisfy everyone's tastes. I've had the French Dip sandwich, which was very good and the burgers are super! Don't pass this place by if you're in the area.
