50 Best Bars near North Brunswick

“Always a good time at the North Brunswick Pub! Friendly bartenders. A good local place to frequent.“

“Food was absolutely delightful, and the service was superb. My party especially enjoyed the caring, loving service of our esteemed food runner Andrew Peter Visokay the third. However, we simply cannot rate this fine establishment a review because Andrew Peter was not with us the entire team! The restaurant was simply too busy for this wonderful customer service employee to care for us to the best of his ability, leading to this four star review.“

“Great spot for a drink, good food, and conversation“

“Amazing food and service ❤️“

“Great food. Great service“

“This is a perfect example of a tried and true local mom & pop shop serving the local community. Everyone who works here is friendly and knowledgeable. The bar area is enormous and a great place to unwind after a rough day. I even come here with my laptop and work from time to time. And the food is delicious! Sure, places like this won’t have the same vast selection as a Total Wine or Joe Canal, but the owners have always been able to order me anything I need and will even stock it regularly if it gets a following. Come support this wonderful local business, order a cocktail and some wings, and get to know the regular crew on both sides of the bar!“

“Haven't set foot inside Docks since 2004 for no other reason than it's a little out of the way from home and I'm not much of a drinker. I've been working in the area again for about a year and wanted to find a local spot to go with some coworkers and figured since it was close, why not try Docks. I happened across a picture of one of their burgers and had to try one since having my gallbladder removed and being able to once again enjoy the occasional bacon cheeseburger. Stopped there tonight with a coworker, got the Houston Burger and let me tell you... it was incredible. Burger was well seasoned and juicy (even though I always order well done) and the bacon was top quality. The prices were fantastic and my coworker said they had one of the best Guinness draughts he's had in a long time. Definitely see it turning into a to-do after work more often.“

“This place is neat! It's also comfy, they have a small patio outside and their food is really good! We went for an event and I kept seeing people picking up pizzas. If I were local, I'd go there for pizza as well. Their bartender was very polite and didn't give me an attitude when I ordered a drink. It's hard for me to remember names, so his patience with my description was very much appreciated. Definitely recommend!“

“Excellent local family owned pub - great vibes, awesome bartenders, fun customers, and great food - must try their wings! 🍻 cheers“

“Homemade pasta and wood fired pizza.“

“Very good come give it a try“

“Nagpuri Sahuji in Iselin, NJ, is a gem, renowned for its masterful saffron-infused Old Fashioned, an exquisite rarity. Their Puran Poli is exceptional, boasting a homemade taste with a generous filling and a thin, non-greasy cover. Not only is it authentically Sahuji, but it's also a haven for delicious food. Owners Neeraj and Swapna add a personal touch with their warm, down-to-earth hospitality. The ambiance and service are nothing short of five-star. A must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience“

“I went to Batch today with colleagues. It was a perfect after-work spot with a great vibe, excellent service, and delicious small plates. My friends and I can't wait to go back.“

“Great time so wonderful 🥂“

“Great service, food, and location.“

“My favorite meal at Stuff Yer Face is the Turkey Club Boli with a side order of chicken tenders with their homemade honey mustard. Yum!“

“We got the Bratwurst at the New Brunswick Oktoberfest. Best I ever had and I've been going to them all over the tristate area for 25 years.“

“Posted up in the center of the pub. Me and these two mad lads started drilling. Ice was about 4 inches and ol' Stout was struggling to breach through the ice. After a few minutes of turmoil he was finally able to break and we heard the glorious rush of the water gushing like a foutian out of the portal to the dark unknown. We stood there conquistadors above a murky gold; fish. We set our thrones upon the ice and readied our rods. Our mouths watering at the thought of the first fish. With bait and hand a glee in our hearts we awaited the first bite. But folks, as everyone knows, fishing isn't about the catch nor the side of the fish. But it's the spot and the friends we make along the way. We caught no fish, not even ol' Stout. But we had a splendid time, and like the conquistadors of old we left with nothing. Oh yea and there's uhh ... darts in the back or something.“

“Good food. Very slow service. Need to get the TVs to work or at least hire staff that are able to change the channels on them.“

“It’s a good spot to hang out“

“Cuzin's Seafood Clam Bar is first class! Not only is the seafood fantastic, but the dry aged steaks and cocktails are excellent as well. Highly recommend“

“My friends haven't been out since their son was born 2 months ago and this was the perfect spot to go! Played a few rounds of shuffleboard (2 pool tables as well) put some money in the juke box, no kitchen but we got pizza delivered...all around good vibes :) FYI cash only $$$“

“Carlos is awesome. Friendly and attentive“

“Bartender is extremely nice.. her name is Eliii The only problem is that factor that the manager is watching her as she do her job. I don’t know how to fell comfortable about it. She can’t feel her self.Elliie is an extremely outing person. And she should deserved a better position and saltire“

“If soccer is your sport of choice, then you’re in the right place! Good prices, friendly atmosphere and staff!“

“Had an awesome night out ! Place had great music and drinks! Amanda took care of us! She was awesome at suggesting drinks and was extremely attentive to anyone you saw her come in contact with! If you have not stopped in , do yourself a favor and check it out!“

“I love coming here after work! The staff is always so accommodating and nice. The atmosphere is very relaxing. I highly recommend this bar!“

“Great music, great food, top notch service and last but not least: breathtaking views of NYC, keep it up 💕“

“This is a decent bar. The service during the day is not the best if you’re not a regular or if you don’t look a certain way. However, it is a lot better in the evening. The evening bartenders tend to be friendlier and more welcoming. I tried to be a regular there but some of the bad service turned me off. Not bad if you go from to time. The drinks were always great. Food is decent but their wings are absolutely amazing. Place has always been organized and clean.“

“It’s a very nice place to relax for drinks with friends!!!!“

“Check out this place! Great food and drink specials.“

“Listen, know what you're looking for. You're going to a dive bar, don't expect the world out of the place. It's quiet, unassuming, and non judgemental. Cheap drinks and friendly service.

Last time I was there someone parked real close behind me and when the owner saw my Austin Power's K-turning he flagged the guy and got him to move. If that ain't service, I don't know what is.“

“The night before my wife's 50th high school reunion (North Plainfield, class of 1975), a large group of the attendees went to a pre-party at Ellery's. The pizza served here was pretty good, but it was a little greasy. Besides plain, they offered sausage and a few other styles. The restaurant also served wings and salad, which I passed on. The get together ended with a great selection of fancy cookies, where I really over-indulged.“

“Olio is a very luxurious hotel had with five stars because he has everything else who has four kids the lobbies really nice the prices are fair their rooms are really really need the stuff is awesome so you pay what you get and definitely I will commend you for family friends for pleasure or business excellent keep it up I recommended you guys are everywhere“

“For a hotel, it certainly was refreshing. Traveling a lot you don't always get the best food selection.

With that said, the crispy Brussels sprouts, OH-EM-GEE. Hear me out. They were the best thing I think I've eaten...in well, ever. It wasn't just the whole Brussels sprout itself, it was mostly the outer skins that was coated in seasonings, oil, and crispy. They were SO GOOD!

I definitely recommend the French Onion soup as well, we had that twice. 😋“

“I've been going to the South River Pub for many many years and I used to bartend there as well. It's my hometown bar and I love it. My mom knew the owners and i grew up with their kids and they have become like family. I particularly love karaoke night on Fridays with DJ Rob, who has become a dear friend to me over the years as well. The regulars are fun, kind and caring people and when I go there it feels like family. Like “Cheers.” They don't serve food but you can bring your own if you like. Sometimes for special events and football, Lil will make a little food buffet for the customers. It's always a fun time.“

“Was here for a soccer tournament and stumbled in from a quick search. Definitely get the wings! The food was overall great and exceeded our expectations. Drafts were cold and good as well. We came on a Tuesday evening so not busy but the bartender was also very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend“

“I got the vegetable fried rice and the plain lo mein side. Both delicious! Noodles were nice and thick and come out hot! Both came out hot nice and fresh. Service was very friendly and attentive. They also had these crunchy noodles that they give you with the sweet sauce dip and the hot mustard dip. Very good as well.“

“I recently visited the District 7 Restaurant & Bar and had an amazing experience. The BBQ chicken wings at the bar were delicious. What stood out the most was the exceptional service provided by Edei, who made the best Old Fashioned cocktails in New Jersey. Highly recommend this place for a great experience!“

“Great place to go out dancing, Friendly Bartenders! and Amazing food“
