Harvest Moon Brewery & Cafe

We had a great time. Grandma couldn't hear at times - overall we had a great time before our show at the theater.

If you go to Harvest Moon and are a beef fan, have the CaliMex burger: guacamole, beef, pico de gato... and the fries! Glass of Malbec and you're home free.

Really great burgers for a reasonable price. Obviously their in hose craft beer are the highlight of the visit. They are good at getting you in and out before a show.

Great place near comedy show. Beautiful building with great bar and seating area. Food was fresh and delicious. Beer was also a favorite in my group. A must try in New Brunswick!

Great place good food and service just doing the winter months a little cold inside maybe better heat management would help a great deal. So maybe the hot soup offer would not jump out at you as much and the first thing to order on the menu.

We walked 6 minutes from the state theater for a late afternoon meal. I loved the veggie wrap! Our server was kind and friendly. I am looking forward to going back!

First time at Harvest Moon. We knew it was a college hangout since it's right by Rutgers. Nice selection of cocktails and beer. Food is great but like everywhere it's pricey. We spent over $100 for 3 drinks, 1 app, 2 burgers, and 1 “small plate”. Also had to pay for parking. Service was quick and friendly. We finished eating just before the late night rush arrived...at which point getting to the ladies room was an adventure! Overall we enjoyed our experience and would visit again when in the area.

Decided to give Harvest Moon a try before seeing a show. Our waiter Luz was amazing but we found the food to be very disappointing. We ordered a few apps and sandwiches, requesting they all come out together. Our apps, which included the pickle fries, loaded potato skins and fig pizza were cold and very bland tasting. Friends said the chicken sandwich was a little dry too. One bright spot was the crab cake sandwich. The manager provided us with free desserts but I dont think we will be heading back anytime soon. Out waiter Luz was great though!

Beware of this place. The men at our table ordered 5 $18 glass of bourbon and was charged an additional $2 charge for each drink on the rocks….. manager did not have a response that made sense. Food and atmosphere are not worth a visit,,,, we spent over $400 for 6 people , so we are not cheap but $2 for each ice ridiculous

We really enjoyed the easy menu that all of my family could enjoy and find something they could love. Wonderful staff and service. Just OK food on a quiet Sunday. It was a nice atmosphere to get together with my Rutgers kid and enjoy the day. Thank you.

Went here with a large group. Ate upstairs which was fine but I think we were forgotten. Ordered apps and meals and drinks. Food was mediocre, nothing to rave about. Beer was simply okay. Might've been better if it were colder. Mixed drinks were also just okay. Waitress came to take our order, we got our food. We never saw the waitress again. We wanted to order another round of drinks but no waitress to be found. After a while I walked downstairs to ask for someone to come up so we can order more drinks. We were almost done with our food, finally another waitress comes up. We ordered another drink to finish our food but at this point, we were annoyed and jusy wanted to leave. We paid our bill and they automatically included 20% tip for poor service.

Great place. Great beer. Recommend their club sandwich that comes with lots of bacon!

Came here Aug 2024 again so update. Staff still friendly. Though lead bartender is a great guy and treated me above and beyond. The lady bartenders are great too. On 6/27 the daytime bartender and guy maybe a manager during the day were great.

Very recommended. All staff great. Great brewery beer. I really like the red. Had their burger with extra bacon for $2 bucks.

Came to The Harvest Moon Tuesday thru Mnday 7/2/24 for the NJ Transit fare holiday. Tuesday though Saturday had thd best experience. Sunday 7/1 less of a good experience though the first bartender with a beard was amazing himself. They were closed Labor Day so no hospitality that day!

I cannot tell you enough how pleasantly surprised I was about this place. For a bar it offers everything, soup, coffee, drinks, small bites and a great choice of vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. I fact I cannot recollect a single restaurant or bar in my last trip to the United States that gave you such a welcome choice of food and a lot of it was vegetarian. It’s located on George Street really nice part of New Brunswick where all the good restaurants are. Staff was friendly and kind you the portions can be large so order carefully if you don’t like wasting food. I was a bit disappointed with the beer I ordered as it did not feel like beer - or maybe it’s the beers I am used to. All I would say is if you ate in the New Brunswick area for whatever reason, they enough on their menu that you could eat here every day for the whole week and still be able to order something different every time and that’s saying something. Oh it was a weekend and they had live music - but it’s played on the street where they also have plenty of tables to seat. Unfortunately that live music part was hmm well let’s not talk about it….All in all a great place - go check it out if you are in the area. You will be glad you did…
