Jigg's Corner Steakhouse & Music Saloon

Jigg's is a divey kind of bar, but I love it.  They have the BEST buffalo wings in the area, hands down!  I like the hot ones- they are always perfect- just the right amount of crispiness and sauciness!  Its a no nonsense kind of place so if you're looking for fancy- forget it, but if you want good wings and a beer you can't lose!  Its a mixed crowd of all ages and walks of life- so fun people watching too depending on what day and time you are there.  Staff is friendly and the bathroom (at least the lady's) is clean.

Nothing to complain about here. I have not had anything from the menu that I have not liked. Great place to go if you feel like sitting and eating but you want it a little livlier. Large bar so you are pretty sure to be able to belly up if you'd like. Sizzlers and patty melts all day for me...

Jiggs is a roadside saloon with a dark decor that fits its pedigree. It is not a destination for fine dining, but in the realm of simple pub food Jiggs excels. Their burgers are excellent and probably the best under $5 hamburger you will find in the area. Chicken wings are outstanding. Jiggs offers several wing sauces ranging from the heatless garlic parmesan,  with a sauce so delicious that you wish you had some bread to soak up the leftover, to "Suicide" which is hot enough to make your nose run.  The patty melt (chicken or beef), served on toasted bread with caramelized onions is outstanding.  This is the realm of fried food that is bad for you and they do it well.

Jiggs is above all a bar, and a local bar at that. If you aren't a regular you might notice a few heads turn when you walk in, but don't let that scare you. The locals will soon return to their beers and talk about fishing, politics or  whatever the subject of the day is.  Some people alluded to a "rough crowd" or "bikers" but they are nothing more than working class men and women out for a few beers after work. Nothing particularly "rough" about them.

There are televisions throughout the place and they are always tuned to several sports channels so if you want to watch the Yankees or Mets, or the Giants or something else you need to find a seat with a view of that game. Or you can sometimes get the bartender to switch the channel for you so you can watch what you want, as long as nobody else objects.

Live music usually kicks in about 9:00 with mostly jazz  or blues based artists and there is an open mic night (Wed I think) where I've seen some surprisingly talented singers.  

There is an area with tables that is apparently serviced by the bartenders in a rotation, so table service can be crappy at times and something of an afterthought. That is Jiggs. If you want consistent, prompt service you are better off  forgetting about the tables and  sit at the bar for eats.

The beer selection is rather ordinary.  It is mostly the usual big brewery offerings such as Bud and Miller Lite, but they also offer Smithwicks, Guinness Stout and Newcastle Brown Ale, but that is as far as it goes.  True beer aficionados may find the offerings wanting.

If you are looking for  simple, well executed pub food and are willing to put up with somewhat spotty service pass by the big chains that line Route 23 and head to Jiggs.
