Bareburger's Ridgewood restaurant is closing its doors for good on Nov. 8, and the burger chain is sending off its loyal customers with all-day happy hour pricing all week long leading up to the final service. The restaurant at 15 E. Ridgewood Ave. offers Wagyu burgers and plant-based options.
According to NorthJersey.com, the Ridgewood restaurant will serve all-day happy hour pricing all week at its Ridgewood shop as it counts down to its final day. The outlet's reporting is also echoed by New Jersey 101.5, which likewise confirmed the restaurant's closing date and the discounted pricing running through its last day in business.
Bareburger thanked its Ridgewood customers directly in a message shared with its closure announcement, writing, “thank you for all the love, memories, and support over the years. Ridgewood, we'll miss you!” The sentiment, per the same NorthJersey.com report, reflects years of history between the chain and the downtown community it served.
What's On The Menu Before The Doors Close
The Ridgewood location's menu consists of Wagyu burgers along with vegan options, including plant-based black bean and Impossible Burgers, the report notes. Bareburger first opened in 2009, building a reputation around ethically sourced ingredients across its lineup of burgers, cheesesteaks, tenders, and sides.
The closure comes less than a year after a bump in the road for the Ridgewood location. A “minor” smoke incident closed the restaurant on Dec. 28, 2025, with the shop reopening only after safety inspections were completed, per the same account.
Five Other New Jersey Locations Remain Open
While Ridgewood diners are losing their local Bareburger, the chain isn't disappearing from the Garden State. Five other New Jersey locations remain, with spots in Edgewater, Closter, Montclair, Westfield and Woodcliff Lake, according to the NorthJersey.com report.
For now, Ridgewood regulars have five days to grab a happy hour deal before the 15 E. Ridgewood Ave. storefront goes dark for good on Nov. 8.
