Oddfellows had excellent burgers and good cornbread and gumbo. I miss it.

yeah i think it's the cost that drove them out of business in jc, you dont goto oddfellow for their sandwich, you go there for their specialty crawfish dishes which were all around $20 after tip, compared to avg $10 lunch around jc. But it's very good food! i remember going there once a week alone to enjoy a nice quiet lunch, just to get away from all the office chaos for a while... It was a special place!

This was in the current O'Connell's building, right? I think I had a few beers there once.

if I remember correctly the cheapest things on the menu were Po'Boys priced at about $15 each they had a $10 burger miss that place... guessing it would do better now with the increased volume of people living in the area

I guess they couldn't make it on lunches only - the Paulus Hook area doesn't eat out enough - more just home deliveries which don't pay the bills -- Guess the offices couldn't spend enough at lunchtime. I think Oddfellows would have done much better on Grove Street or on Newark Ave (and yes I know Ox closed but that was different) - though I must say that Oddfellows should of had some cheaper things on their lunch menu -- if I remember correctly the cheapest things on the menu were Po'Boys priced at about $15 each. Honestly, I don't really miss this place very much -- but if I lived in Paulus Hook -- since there are so few options -- I guess I would miss it too.

Ah ha! I wasn't yet here when Oddfellow's was in Jersey City. By the way, the namesake is an amazing cemetery. Bon appetit!

Oddfellows.
Long gone from JC, but there's one in Hoboken right by the PATH station.

It closed more than a year ago, they specialize in crawfish entrees, the crawfish meat over rice was soooo good. It was located on montgomery around grand banks & baja.
i remember someone telling me they are a chain, wanted to know the name so i can look it up their other locations, thanks.
