Went on a Saturday about 4pm for a late lunch to catch up with some friends and have a drink. Lunch menu looked good and had a lot to offer. The burger was recommended by our waiter and it did not disappoint. Fries were delicious. The service was great....fast, friendly and checked on us often. It was dark and cozy inside.

The Second Half is a fantastic Denville staple! The atmosphere is great whether you are having a drink or bringing family for a meal, especially if you are looking for something a bit more polished. The menu has something for everyone and the food is always good. Great cocktails and beer list. The staff is absolutely wonderful and always friendly.

We first went there for my fiancee's birthday and we all loved the food and the service. So when we were looking at places to have our wedding reception, this was the first place we thought of. It turned out great! Owners and staff were amazing, so helpful and accommodating! All of our guests loved the food and ambiance. They nailed it! Than you!

We love this place. Just began going in August and have been back 3 times. Food is good. Dessert is better. But what keeps us coming back is the service and the atmosphere. Such a friendly place. So many restaurants are too loud and too big and service is poor. This place is a bit old school and we love it.

Warm and cozy. Those are the two words that come to mind as we walked in to The Second Half. The staff was very welcoming and catered to our every need. We ordered the French Onion Soup, which was very good and is recommended. Our almost three-year-old couldn't stop eating the chicken fingers and fries. For the main course, I had a cheeseburger with cheese and onions. The burger was overcooked (asked for medium well and the bottom was burnt) but the waffle fries were very tasty. I asked for BBQ sauce on the side and it was some of the most delicious sauce I have ever had - it had a slight kick to it that I loved. We would definitely come back.

Came in because I was around and hungry. There was no wait so I sat immediately. Ordered an espresso martini and calamari. The calamari came with a spicy aioli and marinara. I preferred the marinara over the spicy aioli. After, I got the Spicy Garden Salad which was amazing!! I got it with blackened shrimp instead of chicken. I also tried the Chicken & Chorizo Quesadilla which was also yummy! I honestly have no complaints and would come back again!

A perfect lunch in the heart of downtown Denville. Stopped in for lunch at The Second Half On Main to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. We arrived at 1:40ish and were able to grab a table near the bar, with no wait at all. While a Guinness is a St. Patrick's staple, I'm not a big fan so stuck with what I know and ordered an IPA. When we first sat down, we were greeted by Kaitlin ( if I botched the spelling on you name, I apologize. There are so many variations) She was quick to keep us hydrated and had a good grasp of the beers available. We ordered a few Lunch IPA's (The Maine Brewing Company - 7% ALC) as well a Guiness which arrived rather quickly. Kudos to Kaitlin for going above and beyond I'm making sure our table wasn't wobbly. We assured her our beers we not a tipping hazard, but she did not want to take that chance and corrected the problem. A huge thanks for going the extra mile for us and not risking a spilled beer. When it came to ordering, Adam took over and was very attentive as well. We took advantage of one of the daily specials and ordered the Conred beef sandwich (coleslaw, pickle and horseradish sauce) as well as a burger. All meals were delicious and served fresh. We were checked on several times during our meal and service was top notch. The beer was cold and the food was great and made for a great St. Patrick's Day lunch. For those hankering a good meal for St. Patrick's Day, consider The Second Half On Main. I'm rather confident they offer this meal all day long for takeout or eat in while supplies last. We did try another local place but it was jammed packed with an 45 minute wait. We found that The Second Half in Main less crowded and a great location for a few guys to catch up while having a few cold beers and eating some food. If your looking for a good place to eat, consider stopping in or carrying out for your Saint Patrick's Meal..
