12 Best Bars in New Brunswick

“First time dining at Salt and we had an amazing time. We had clams and oysters as our small dish and that was absolutely perfect. For our main course I had the Black Sea bass over Risotto with asparagus and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. My friend had the lobster and Risotto which I tried and it was also delicious. Finished off with espresso and dessert. Wait staff was top of the line, polite and smiling. Very attentive, and bathrooms were immaculate (very important to me). A completely perfect evening at a beautiful restaurant. Can’t say enough about Salt. Will be back soon…thank you Salt team!“

“I absolutely love this place. Everything is fresh and delicious. These dogs are creative, are made in house, and the options are endless. I am consistently going back to try them all.Vegetarian options: Can switch out any hot dog with a soy dog“

“Great food and energetic environment. Worth every penny if you want good seafood as well as other great pasta dishes! Try the calamari, crispy lobster dumplings and Italian sausage appetizers, you can't go wrong with either one! The pappardelle bolognese is amazing, my favorite dish thus far. The surf & turf is amazing as well, it will not disappoint!“

“Wow what an interesting and vibrant place to eat and enjoy a festive evening with family and friends. The food was delicious with tons of variations to choose from, the build your own taco sheet was really helpful. A live guacamole booth was a great touch to see it made fresh before your eyes. All our dishes were made to our desire and tasted great. Our server was polite and very attentive to our needs as a large group of 20 people. Prices were fair even for the entrees. Since we celebrated a double birthday they brought over a huge sombrero and sang along with us. We will definitely return again soon.“

“Great selection of cocktails, wines, beers, etc! It's a small and cozy space with seating at the bar and smaller tables/barrels. There is a private room in the back that can be reserved as well. I tried the yuzu cocktail and it was light and refreshing. The margherita pizza was good as well. Service was quick and attentive. They also sell a limited selection of alcohol. Would definitely return!“

“Second trip to Stage Left. Very much worth the drive from OH. The food was excellent. The gnocchi were silky soft and wonderful. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection, and the house made sauces were amazing. The service was beyond compare. Our server Joel was awesome, he took great care of everyone in our party (there were 4 of us). Max helped keep our table cleared and ready for the next course. Joel and Christian helped us plan out our meal and provided the best selection of wine to go with the meal. All the courses were excellent - cheeses, salad, pasta, steak, and dessert. The house made gelato is to die for. We are already planning our next visit for the summer when we can sit out on the patio.“

“We had the absolute time at Victoria's! We ordered Calamari and Salmon and both were amazing!! The fresh homemade bread was scrumptious! Joe the bartender was so friendly and made the best cocktails. Irene greeted us at the door and made sure we felt welcome and at home. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. Definitely recommend! we will be coming back“

“A legend in New Brunswick. You must try it at least once. Boli (stromboli) is like two slices of pizza rolled up. Near infinite number of filling combinations to satisfy the most carnivorous as well as the most vegan. Bar and outside tables are also popular. Excellent and expeditious service.“

“The atmosphere is great here. The DJ had a set going when we got there. Our service was attentive and very welcoming. Our server Rye, was so kind and genuine, and we were lucky to have such a helpful person serving us that night. The pork bao buns were outstanding and so were the pickle fries. The drinks were also excellent. It was one of our birthdays and we were happy to celebrate here. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner thoroughly and will be back again. Highly Recommended??“

“I went here for happy hour yesterday with friends and had a great time! Our server Zeniah was so attentive and accommodating, making sure that we were taken care of from start to finish, which added to our overall experience. The drink and food options are pretty nice too, I got the Shrooms appetizer and really liked it. Definitely one of the best happy hour spots in the area! Thank you!“

“My cousin is attending Rutgers College and wanted to meet after class, and this was the place he picked. I was excited to check it out. When I walked in, I was carded it's been a while since that happened to me, so I was flattered, to say the least. Don't wait to be seated. Just find your spot, I found mine in front of the TV they had both basketball games on. While sitting I noticed no one came over to take my order I thought that was a bit odd, when my cousin came in we made our way over to the bar and we received all the service we needed. This is the first place I ever visited that didn't come to you. You had to come to them, lol. Different, but everyone was nice and had a smile. I had naked wings and house salad. I'm not sure what they use for the Buffalo sauce, but it was good. I left nothing but bone, lol. The salad was fresh, and I so enjoyed the Greek vinaigrette. It was delicious. They also had BINGO, and we played about 3 games before we headed out. Over all ot was a great experience, and I'll be back for those naked wings. Oh, and they gave me a drink, Cozy, as well, lol“

“Our server Mike, was great!!! We had a wonderful dinner and great server!!! His serving partner, Gabriel was just as great!! They make a great team, the food recommended by Mike was a huge hit!!! Ask for Mike and Gabriel when you get there!!!“
