A family-owned business from Jersey City’s West Side neighborhood has moved downtown. Meryendang Pinoy is now in soft open mode at 283 Newark Avenue between Monmouth and Third Street. (They’ve taken over the former Pokay Bowl space).
Meryendang Pinoy previously operated from Flip Vibes at 125 Mallory Avenue. The new eatery serves a variety of Filipino street food and dessert such as taho, fish balls, sweet cheese corn, ice scramble, and nilupak, which is made by smashing cooked cassava, with butter, and condensed milk.
Through June 26, they’re open from 12pm to 8pm. They will celebrate their official grand opening on Thursday, June 27 at 1:30pm. You can follow them on Instagram for updates.
