1. Arrive at the airport at 5 pm, drop off bags, go through passport/COVID document verification;
2. Take AirTrain and the NJ transit train to Newark Penn Station;
3. Have an early dinner at a nice restaurant in Newark (Fornos of Spain is two minutes away);
4. Go back to EWR on the NJ transit train/AirTrain. Arrive around 7:30 pm;
5. Go through security (pre-check) and go straight to the gate.

Thank you!
If you don't want to miss your flight, get a cab, as others have suggested. But personally, I still wouldn't do it.
