Grain & Cane - Bar & Table is your home for hospitality in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. An homage to family nostalgia, our neighborhood table is built on the Connell legacy, as leading American rice and sugar cane purveyors and community idealists. Our menu features dishes that nod to family tradition, regional flare, and vibrant flavors, such as seasonal cocktails, our famous Grover Double Burger and Shrimp Tostada. Strong roots and dynamic character serve as the blueprint for a thoughtful selection of craft beers, wine, and cocktails. Vintage art and antique photographs from past Connell generations set a backdrop for a convivial atmosphere – a restaurant and bar ideal for a range of experiences, from casual occasions to magnetic celebrations. We invite you to gather around our modern table, as extended family reveling in a shared history. We hope you’ll raise a glass with us soon.

It was alright, the food was decent. My dad’s eggs weren’t poached though, they were cooked right through like a hard boiled egg. I liked my French toast, but I was expecting more since I’ve tried the catered food. Need to clean the walls at the booths. The booth seating would have been ok, but I did mention Father’s Day in the reservation and then they put us in a booth by the kitchen when there were open spots. Just an overall lackluster vibe and I would have just rather hit up our go to, Summit Diner. And if that’s your signature Bloody Mary then you need to work on it because it tastes like a basic mix!

My family went to Grain & Cane for Father's Day Brunch. Maybe they didn't anticipate how crowded it would be....but, it took us over an hour to get our food. I asked both the waitress & the manager to check on our order - both said they would be right back after they checked - and neither came back. I had to call over our waitress for the update. She also forgot to bring us the complimentary banana bread. To their credit, they did offer us 2 free desserts and the food was good once it finally arrived. However, I'm not planning on going back there any time soon.
Grain & Cane - Bar & TableResponded on June 18, 2025
Dear Jill, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the waiting time and service you experienced while dining with us did not meet your expectations. Your insights are very important to us, and we will definitely address your concerns as we work to improve our dining experience. On a brighter note, we are glad that you enjoyed our food and received two complimentary desserts. We value your review, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for the dining experience you expected and deserve.

We went to Grain & Cane for Father's Day. The ambience was nice and lively. We had a reservation and knew it would be busy. Unfortunately, the wait between our food order (only 2 entrees) and when we got our food was longer than any restaurant we've experienced at well over an hour. When we got our food, the chicken in the chicken/waffles was severely undercooked. They gave us a replacement, but after waiting over an hour initially and then to receive what we did was quite underwhelming. We don't plan to dine here again.
Grain & Cane - Bar & TableResponded on June 20, 2025
Dear Mohini, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're glad you enjoyed the lively atmosphere, but we're truly disappointed to hear about the extended wait and the issue with your meal. That’s certainly not the experience we aim to deliver, especially on a special occasion like Father’s Day. Your feedback is valued and has been shared with our team to address the delays and food preparation standards. We understand your frustration and appreciate you giving us a try.

When we arrived, we were seated outside, which had not been requested on my reservation. It was windy and not the best. The hostess did find a round table for us inside which was great and accommodated our party which included a baby. Service was superb. Very attentive and cordial waiter. Food was good. I had the "purple rain" pancakes which were supposedly healthier than regular pancakes, but were on the dry side and very heavy. The rest of the party seemed to enjoy their meals.

Dear Kathy, Thank you for sharing your experience at Grain & Cane!
