Bridgewater's Zinburger Closes, New Tavern To Replace It

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — Zinburger Wine & Burger Bar's presence was short-lived in Bridgewater. The upscale boutique burger restaurant, which opened just over a year ago, permanently closed due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

The restaurant had closed in mid-March when the coronavirus hit but never reopened. Zinburger's Clifton location was the only restaurant that remained open throughout the pandemic.

Now a new restaurant will take over the location at 550 Somerset Corporate Park Blvd., next to the new AC Hotel by Marriott and across the highway from the Bridgewater Commons Mall.

Triple T Hospitality Group, which manages Tommy's Tavern + Tap with locations in Freehold, Sea Bright and Staten Island, is taking over the former Zinburger restaurant to open its newest location in Bridgewater.

The Bridgewater location is set to open early into the new year, said Andrea Bonfiglio, a spokeswoman with Triple T Hospitality Group.

Tommy's Tavern + Tap offers a variety of menu options including pizza, burgers, sushi, poke bowls along with beer, wine and specialty drinks.

More information on the opening of the Bridgewater location will be released later this year.
