Hockey Knight in Jersey

Before

0.2 mi · 3 min walk - Downtown Newark

A Black-owned bookshop on Broad Street that has been Newark's independent bookstore for decades, stocking Black history, fiction and children's books and hosting author events. It sits in the stretch of downtown between the arena and Military Park. Shelves are packed tight and the staff will point you at something.

After

0.2 mi · 4 min walk - Downtown Newark

A 7,000 square foot German beer hall on the corner of Market Street and Edison Place, with its back door facing the arena and long communal tables inside. Seating is open and reservations are not taken, so you walk in and find a bench. The kitchen stays open after every Prudential Center event lets out, which is the whole reason it is here.
