Established 1942, Rumson, NJ

At Val’s Tavern, our customers and staff are treated like family. Our mission at Val’s is to provide customers with an exceptional dining experience in a warm and welcoming environment with friendly service at a reasonable price.

Meet, Dine & Drink

Val’s Tavern features live music on the weekends and the bar offers signature cocktails, 12 tap beers and plenty of TVs to catch all local high school, college, and pro games.

What Our Guests Say

  • "We have been going to Vals since I was little. My parents would take us to Briodys on Friday or Saturday nights and we always went to Vals on Sundays. We now go to watch games and the recently renovated atmosphere brings back warm memories of my childhood. Nice family restaurant with awesome staff!!"
