Across the street from Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison lies a brand-new restaurant that offers an inviting, all-day community hub with plenty of good food and neighborhood programming.
Keepers, a culinary destination located in the heart of Harrison’s Riverbend District, is now open. Located in the street-level retail space of The Wyldes, New Jersey’s newest luxury rental property, the restaurant is the result of a collaboration between Episcope Hospitality and Advance Realty Investors.
It’s an all-day affair. In the mornings, Keepers’ retro coffee window serves as a go-to stop for locals, pouring espresso, signature iced teas, and all the neighborhood favorites. Whether enjoying pre-game bites, a relaxed night out, or an elevated private dining experience, Keepers delivers hospitality with heart in a setting that feels timeless.
The space includes a gorgeous bar, inviting dining room, and a private event space fit for up to 50 guests.
Led by David Morton of the renowned Morton’s Steakhouse family, Episcope Hospitality is known for creating exceptional food and beverage experiences across the country, with venues in New York City, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix, and beyond. Their collaboration with Advance Realty Investors marks a new chapter for the Riverbend District, blending residential, retail, and recreational spaces into one seamless community.
“Keepers is designed to be more than just a restaurant; it’s where the neighborhood connects,” Daniel Orrison of Episcope Hospitality, said. “Our location next to Sports Illustrated Stadium, and our partnership with Advance Realty, allow us to create a place where people come together, whether for pre-game meals, post-work cocktails, or a catch-up with friends.”
The opening of Keepers is a key milestone in Advance Realty Investors’ broader vision for the 35-acreRiverbend District, which also includes Steel Works and Cobalt Lofts. Developed by Advance, designed by MHS Architecture, and built by March Associates Construction, The Wyldes offers studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments just 10 miles from New York City.
“Keepers represents the next step in our vision to make the Riverbend District a true destination for both residents and visitors,” Dan Cocoziello, principal and COO of Advance Realty Investors.
Conveniently located across from the Harrison PATH Station, with a 20-minute train ride to Manhattan, the Riverbend District offers quick access to Jersey City, Hoboken, Newark, and top cultural destinations. The neighborhood is home to thousands of residents and features riverside parks and walkways that foster a vibrant, connected lifestyle.
Keepers is now open and located at 1100 S Fifth St, Harrison, NJ 07029.
The restaurant is open Wednesday to Sunday, from 7am to late.
