How it works

Gift cards are issued through Toast, our card system, and arrive by email, so a last-minute one still works. They can be spent on anything on the menu, including brunch and catering.

Note the card page still carries our former name, Antique at 112. Same restaurant, same address, same kitchen.

How far a card goes here

Every price on the menu is published, so a card can be sized to the meal you are imagining instead of a round number picked blind. The menu runs from $4.00 drinks to a $41.00 full bottle of Syrah, with most plates in the teens. Some real combinations, priced from the menu itself:

  • A weekday breakfast. The Breakfast Burrito ($14.00), avocado, eggs, tater tots and cheddar, with bottomless coffee at $5.00 beside it.
  • Brunch for two. Brioche French Toast stuffed with Nutella ($16.00) and the Avocado Toast on whipped ricotta ($15.00), plus the coffees.
  • A burger night. The Rocco Burger ($19.00) under smoked Gouda and thick cut bacon, or Steak Frites ($26.00), the 8 oz hanger steak from Vrola.
  • The family option. The Whole Rotisserie Chicken Family Meal ($36.00): local organic chicken, adobo or classic spices, rice and beans included.
  • The dessert errand. Baby Bread Pudding ($12.00) and a Bread Pudding Iced Latte ($9.00), for the person who has already heard about the bread pudding.

When they can come and spend it

Worth passing along with the gift, because our week has a shape to it. Monday to Thursday the room runs a morning service and an evening service, with a break through the middle of the afternoon. Friday runs straight through, and the weekend is one long service each day. The footer of every page on this site carries the week in full.

The part that matters for a gift: the brunch board runs to 4 PM, so on a Friday or a weekend the card covers a breakfast eaten at a thoroughly unreasonable hour. And because it works against an online order as well as at the table, a night when the couch wins is still a night the card works. Ordering direct through our own page keeps more of the ticket with the kitchen than an aggregator would, which quietly makes the same gift worth a little more.

If they ask what to order first

We can answer that with other guests rather than with our own opinion. Elizabeth Manna, in a Google review, called the Big J Burger an “excellent smashed burger and bun!” Dorothy L. wrote that “The bread pudding is such a good sweet treat!” Both quotes are verbatim, and both dishes are on the menu right now, the burger at $19.00 and the bread pudding at $12.00.

Neither costs the whole card, which is rather the point. A gift that covers the famous thing and the rest of the lunch beside it lands better than one that covers exactly one plate.

Detail

What to know before you buy

What a card can be spent on

Anything on the menu. That is the whole answer, but it is worth spelling out what it covers, because the range is unusual for one small room: all-day brunch until four, grass-fed wagyu smash burgers, an 8 oz Vrola hanger steak, local organic rotisserie chicken, house-made mozzarella, New Jersey wine by the half bottle, and a soft serve machine.

It works in the room and against an online order, and it works toward catering too.

The name on the card page

Worth flagging before you click, so nothing looks wrong: the gift-card page still carries our former name, Antique at 112. Same restaurant, same address, same kitchen, same crew. The card system simply has not caught up with the rebrand yet.

If you land on a page saying Antique at 112, you are in the right place.

Buying one at the last minute

Cards are issued through Toast and delivered by email, so a card bought twenty minutes before dinner still arrives in time. There is no physical card to collect and nothing to post.

What to tell someone you have given one to

Two things make the gift land better. First: brunch runs until 4 PM, so they do not have to set an alarm to use it on the thing this kitchen is best known for. Second: the Baby Bread Pudding with Tuaca caramel is the dish guests name most often in their reviews, and it is $12.00, tell them to order it.

Matching the card to the person

A few real matches, drawn from what the menu actually carries. For the gluten-free friend: the Gluten Free Brownie with Ice Cream ($11.00) names its diet in its own title, and the dietary page sets out exactly what else their menu wording supports. For a family: the kids' board is short and real, Nuggets & Fries at $12.00, Kid's Pasta at $7.00, and the rotisserie family meal at $36.00 feeds the table.

For someone across the water: we hold pages for Jersey City and Weehawken, each with its own directions, the real straight-line distance and the one dish worth phoning ahead about. A card plus the address is a complete plan.

Using it toward a party instead of a plate

The card works toward catering, which changes what it can be as a gift: a contribution to an office lunch or a family party rather than one meal for one person. Catering here asks 24 hours' notice and has no minimum order, so a small gesture is as workable as a large one.

If the occasion wants a room rather than trays, the private dining room takes bookings by phone and email, and the card spends on the food there the same way it does at any table in the building.

Such a cute little gem of a restaurant! Our server David was so personable and attentive and made great recommendations! We tried the Watermelon Salad (so fresh!), Mac and Cheese (loved the breadcrumbs and creaminess), and the Big J Burger (excellent smashed burger and bun!). Thank you for having us!

Absolutely love this place! My boyfriend and I have been coming here for atleast a year now and it has always been a spot that is reliable, great food, and friendly service. Especially Elizabeth, she is lovely, relatable and you can tell she cares and has pride in the business.

Such a cute place for lunch. Love the vibe. 80s style is my favorite. My Chicken Caesar wrap was delicious. Coffee is strong and so good. The staff were friendly and welcoming. My waitress Mia was very attentive and friendly.
