I didn't try any food so cannot comment. Bar is clean and stools are comfortable. Tiny booths are vintage spaces for private conversations. I found the music a little too loud when not a full bar. Matt was our bartender and provided exceptional commentary on the cocktails, some of which he created to add to the menu. His ability to craft a cocktail on demand to match the taste of the person ordering is an art form everyone should experience at least one time.

Very cozy and chill spot. I got the Italian vacay drink. I gotta tell you, that was the best drink I’ve ever had. Not too strong but still had a little kick. It was perfect. 10 out of 10!!!

Ok, wow not what I expected. My taste buds had an experience out of this world! I have been fortunate enough to travel to many places from Aruba, Curacao, Barbados, Hawaii, Mexico etc. I love New York and Boston and worked at Sea Port but nothing, and I mean nothing has compared to the drinks I was served at Steel & Wire. I want them to blow up but at the same time I am feeling sad to give up a hidden gem.

My first time there, didn't even know it existed. We stopped in for my wifes bday to catch the Kentucky Derby. Very welcoming staff, love the feel. Reminds me of the OG dive bar. It's nice they have snack options and an outdoor patio area. Will surely visit again.

Love the coziness and the atmosphere. Played connect four and Jenga. The bartender was very friendly. I will definitely go back especially when the weather gets nice to sit outside in the back of the bar.

I have been searching for a good cocktail bar in the area and I just happened to stumble upon Steel&Wire and I’m very happy I did! The bar itself is laid back and has unique decor. The staff were friendly and attentive and the cocktails were fantastic! I will definitely be returning frequently!

Great drinks and a chill atmosphere. This is my fav place to get an Aperol spritz; they make it right every time! The back room has tables and a great selection of games, making it an ideal spot to hang out with friends

Really well balanced drinks and good last minute food options before last minute! Also really great service and kind staff who will take the time to remember you and anything else. Love coming especially on Saturday night and seeing Bennett and Grace!!!!
Loved the retro ambience, and the awesome service and drinks... great place to hang out. The bartenders made me a really smooth cocktail, very friendly folks.
I highly recommend checking out this place.

I’ve come here several times and am always impressed by the well balanced cocktails. At the time of posting this they have their 2024 Winter Cocktail Menu and I ordered the Aunt Bethany; a bit sweet but a perfect combination of flavors making akin to an alcoholic cream soda. Would certainly order again. Between well crafted cocktail, an excellent ambiance, curated and quite nostalgic media playing on the televisions, Steel and Wire is a must try for the cocktail scene here in Worcester.

Steel & Wire, formerly Nick’s, is a great neighborhood bar, with super friendly bartenders.
I love their seasonal drink specials, and they can make a mean drink off that menu too if you ask nicely.
The food is solid, small menu, but if you are looking for a good pretzel or charcuterie board it’s great for that.
Their outdoor patio has gotten a recent revamp, and it has a great vibe at night with tons of seating.
Trivia on Tuesday nights is great too. Overall, this place is super awesome, and is very chill.

The owner and bartenders were very welcoming. I was there for a martini making class. They were extremely knowledgeable and helpful!
