About Cultivator Shoals

Cultivator Shoals is a restaurant that features a unique ambiance, celebrating New Bedford's history through its artwork. The bartenders are fantastic, crafting creative and perfectly mixed drinks. There are many drink choices available, and the restaurant offers a variety of small plates, including tuna nachos, edamame wontons, and lobster rolls. While the food can be hit-or-miss, with some dishes occasionally overcooked, the bartenders and servers are always friendly and knowledgeable. The service is great, and the staff is willing to accommodate special requests, such as a spicy martini not on the menu. The atmosphere is cool, but it can get a bit loud, especially when large groups are present. Overall, Cultivator Shoals is a great spot for a night out, with delicious drinks and a pleasant atmosphere that keeps customers coming back.
