20 Best Bars near Clinton

“Longtime Nola's customer here and they never disappoint! Every dish is outstanding, every drink is amazing, the atmosphere is upbeat and welcoming yet also has the feeling of a nice restaurant. The food and drinks combine high quality ingredients with creativity and whimsy, all while still somehow giving you a sense of comfort food. It's hard to explain so just go try it! Oh and the icing on the cake is that the owners are incredibly kind of friendly and so helpful if you have any food allergies or specific food needs. Nola's is my go-to restaurant and never disappoints!“

“A group of friends and I went here last night for a place to hang out where there wasn't alot of people. This place was awesome!!! The guy that owns it was extremely friendly, super welcoming and made us feel so at home!! Wish more bars were like this“

“This is one of the absolutely one of the most amazingly awesome-st bars not only in the state, but in the country - it's the oldest continuingly running bar in the county! An old water-hole overlooking on the now-long-gone Chenango Canal and then Railroad and therefore the Erie Canal routes between mines in Pennsylvania and Binghampton, New York and Chicago - it is the warmest dive bar you'll ever see. This is what it used to be like to get drunk in 1895. It was a local grocers store for a time being (think CVS, or gas station). Beer & drinks s*** cheap, easy drinks, run down stools, a sagging ceiling, awesome hard rock on the jukebox; baseball games on TV during $2 beer happy hour during the week, smoke station out back, you can even get cheap little take-away bottles of wine after liquor stores close. Worth a glass when you're giving your donkey a pit-stop.“

“I just learned about how with the restaurant full of customers while the power went out. They comped every meal. Small town values right there“

“Went there for lunch yesterday. Ham & au gratin potatoes for hubby and broiled chicken with Utica greens for me (sorry no phone for pictures). We love this place. Very homey atmosphere and great food. Mary waited on us. She is excellent!“

“Went there for a staff party first time. What a cool place I didn't know about! Super cozy, dark woods. Good drinks and we only got fried foods but would love to try some of their other stuff.

Wheelchair accessibility: I only went in through and saw the back door which is NOT accessible for many. Hopefully the front door??“

“Great vibes and atmosphere“

“I met my girlfriend here!“

“Everything about this place is great. Good food, staff and atmosphere.“

“My first time going to this place! Loved the atmosphere, it was 10:30am and there was already a crowd! They had the Royal Ascot playing on several televisions. The people and owner were awesome and very friendly! Can't wait to go back.“

“I believe there's some history to this place beyond what it is now, which is a warm, quaint, welcoming local watering hole. When me and my family first moved here and I walked into "Town" to find us a late night snack., I found out the unpleasant news about the lack of options for food establishment's and especially after 8pm. By the way I learned this information out from the friendly bartender wrapping up her night shift with a last minute smoke, a guilty pleasure we both shared unfortunately lol. Long story short they offered to turn the grill back on and make me something to bring home for my newly moved in family even though they shut down for the night. They gave me some friendly advice about the local folk which over 1.5 yrs later is still true, and I went on my way and have frequented them since for a nightcap. Only thing I'd say on improving or should say just adding, would be the ability to pay by credit/debit card at the register/bar. Instead there's an ATM which is more costly to the customer as well as inconvenient for the purposes of buying a few drinks, especially if you wanted to use a credit card.. They basically give away Square ® nowadays with all the promos and such.. Just something to think about before summer rolls around ya know. But thanks . ?“

“Love this place. I Never had a bad meal. The staff are pleasant. I go on my 30 minute lunch. I have time to eat and drive back to work. Today I had a tuna sandwich and a bowl of Homemade New England Clam Chowder. The tuna was white albacore (amazing) and the soup was delish. Prices are reasonable. I really didn't want to write this review as I am now afraid they will get busier and I will have to call my orders in but it is well deserved.“

“Had a great night listening to the entertainment (Grit-N-Grace band) and dancing with the locals a couple of weeks ago. Good people, friendly owner, great acoustics, reasonable beer prices! Overall good time. I'm a bit older than the "standard" night life club goer there, but the good folks there were accepting and friendly.“

“Great seeing Junior back behind the Bar doing what he Do! Great Friend of mine & favorite Bar in utica only cuz I used to crawl home from the Bullet back in the Day thanks Rich!“

“Coolest beer!! Great people“

“I recently had the pleasure of working with my fantastic realtor, Susie Bradley of Bradley & Bradley Real Estate for the purchase of my new property in upstate New York. From start to finish she went above and beyond to ensure that the entire process went smoothly and that I found the perfect land purchase for me. One of the things that stood out to me was her attention to detail. She took the time to really understand what I was looking for in and made sure to only show me properties that matched my criteria. This saved me a lot of time and frustration, as I didn't have to sift through countless listings that were not a good fit. Susie was incredibly knowledgeable about the local market. She was able to provide valuable insights and advice on the different neighborhoods and areas that I was interested in. This allowed me to make an informed decision on where I wanted to live and what type of property would best suit my needs.She has excellent communication skills. Susie was always prompt in responding to my questions and concerns, and kept me updated throughout the entire process. Love her!“
