For those of you looking for more outdoor dining options in Rahway, take heart, there’s something on the way. Rahway’s most popular bar, The Waiting Room received Planning Board approval Tuesday night to build a 1,089-square foot concrete patio behind the building at 66 E. Cherry St.
Owner Chris Wenson said the patio would cover the entire area behind his building on East Cherry Street but only part of it would be used for outdoor dining. He expects it could be open by next spring, with as many as 10 to 15 tables.
The Waiting Room will mark its third year at its new location on Saturday. It relocated from the corner of Lewis and Irving streets to make way for the parking garage.

it seems like a good idea, but isnt this area overlooking the Savoy's big pile of dirt? I hope they buy some very tall evergreens or bring back the Berlin wall…
Anonymous, the outdoor deck on the Waiting Room when it was still on Irving Street overlooked a parking lot and an abandoned diner.
well I guess it's the same crowd if nobody cares about that. I remember now parking my car there and getting a look at some of the "patrons". Not quite a Cranford hangout I guess….
