The people that work here are really nice, friendly and attentive. Their food is consistent and they have a large selection of craft beer. They have a lovely patio that is dog-friendly too. It's a cute little, low-key spot.

10 stars if I could. Had to leave my home town of asbury park NJ and head into Brooklyn to deliver my daughter to a show at the Brooklyn monarch. Had a few hours to kill and did my research ahead of time to see where we might hang out while we waited. Northern Belle seemed like the spot so after braving downpour rain, crazy winds and the worst drivers in America, we made it to the bar. From the outside it looked dark and we drove past it and had to turn around to find the place. Wow, you walk in the door and the place is buzzing with Brooklyn locals. We got lucky and got the last 2 seats at the bar. The bartender was so friendly and made great drinks. He was cranking out the drinks and still kept checking on us, not sure how he handles it but he is awesome . We ordered a ton of food for the 2 of us and this place makes really good bar food. Really good. We did the deep fried deviled egg plate, really good. Shrimp and brisket tacos were great. Fried hicken sandwich came with a ton of hand cut fries. Perfect! Oh and we got an order of smoked wings and they are really good!

Great bar food in a great atmosphere. My husband and I end up here for dinner at least once a week and always have a good time. Bartenders are nice, we love the mug club, and the food is consistent.Kid-friendliness: We see lots of kids in here in the earlier hours of the day!

Highly recommend! A neighborhood local bar, spacious, plenty of seating at the bar and tables, and even a nice area in the back with a few larger tables and groups, perfect for a casual group gathering. TVs with sports and a nice selection of draft beers, and friendly attentive service. Great bar menu, it is hard to choose! They're known for the wings. If you like smokey ones, then get them, they are very smokey! We opted for the regular plain fried ones. Lots of fun sau es to choose from. Enjoy!!

The wings and drinks are amazing. Competing with the top wings in the city. Some places have dry chicken, but this spot has very well cooked chicken.The hottest sauce truly is spicy. Definitely try it once!The service could be better. When my order came the waiter definitely switched it up. Even when I tried to confirm the order he was very adamant that he hadn’t. But I ordered the spiciest while my friend ordered bbq. Yet it was my friend crying because of how spicy the wings are lol.

Classic Brooklyn bar atmosphere. Good and fun wait staff. Good choice of beer including porters and stouts. Wing were smoky and overcooked or it could have been the style. Beer is pricey. Would still come

I love Northern Bell. The people are wonderful. The service is great. Everyone is very friendly and I enjoy the food too! They're also dog-friendly, which is even better. Their patio is nice and they have lots of great beer on tap. It's great coming here and they have a nice atmosphere.

Seemed a little busy here on a Saturday night. It looked as if they were having some kind of private event in their back area. Service was aight. I was told that there was table service but had to order at the bar. Guys looked overwhelming busy. Couple of TV's around the bar with college football on the screenTook a minute to get my beer. They have a large variety of draft beers. I opted for the Fiddlehead IPA. Not too bad. Had the chicken sandwich that was unadorned and naked. Not lacking in flavor just a bit on the boring side. Fries just fries. Regular smegular. Not sure that I would return due to the lack of service. But maybe it was just a bad day.

Supes chill; the place from the rehearsal is just down the road and crowded and loud and you get free pizza with drinks. So if that's your vibe, like, whatevs, go there. This place is a lot more chill, the staff is just lovely, can actually go out back, chill out, have a chat, hang out. If that's your speed, cant recommend

For a good year I only ate the fried chicken sandwich, because I couldn’t stop myself from ordering it. Now that I’ve tried various other items from the menu I can say that everything is on par with it and absolutely delicious. One of my favorite dinner and brunch spots. I always get stuffed and go home feeling like a fat pig.

Visited here for the first time today. Very friendly service, great vibes, wide beer selection, and *exceptionally* delicious buffalo wings that hit the holy trinity of crispy, juicy, and smoky. Will be back!

I went here for brunch and it was incredible! The staff was super friendly and the service was very quick. I had the stuffed omelette and my partner had the brisket and eggs. Both were delicious! We’ll definitely be back.
