Stopped in after a tour of university of Delaware. No reservation was seated right away. Service was great. Food was fresh super fresh and delicious. The water tasted really odd to me but I didn't die so that was good lol. Honestly a great price point with great food. Would go here again read more

I got the cheesesteak. It was good. The fries were mediocre though. I had to ask twice to get a refill of water. Besides that the service was fine. I also got some fried pickles. They were great. They went well with ranch. The booth at sat down at was unique but was kinda odd. The angle of it was weird. The environment was chill though. Overall 3 stars. read more

Klondike Kate's - Cheesesteak - Bars Near Me - Newark, Delaware

A typical college bar that could generally use some sprucing up. (We tend to only frequent this spot in the university's off season.) Their bartenders are great, friendly, and know what they're doing. We went to Kate's for their weekend brunch for the first time, pulled in by their $5 mimosas and were so pleased we did. The food was above your average bar food, creative, piping hot, and delicious. Fair prices for brunch food too, which we always like. All in all, a really great weekend brunch spot. If it was warmer, they have ample outdoor seating which would be lovely but their winter-themed Sleigh Bar on the inside made up for it! read more

It's a neighborhood restaurant in Newark. Do not expect fine fare and you won't be disappointed. Think burgers and nachos. Friendly wait-staff. read more

Party of 10, we came to see the sleigh and decor, after being wowed last year. We had a corner round table that accommodated all of us nicely, and is much more preferable to a rectangular table in terms of communicating with the entire group. I anticipated some delay on our food, but I was wrong. It all came out at about the same time, after our delicious appetizers. I had the salmon, and not only was the portion filing, it was so tasty! We never once had to ask for refills of our drinks, and our wait staff was attentive but not intrusive. The bill came to under $300, which was surprising because a few in our group had beers. Can't wait to see it again next year (but I won't wait a whole year before going back) read more

Unfriendly bartender. Cluttered college bar with mediocre food. Limited beer options.

Just had the SMALLEST sandwich I've ever had in a bar. It was delicious but it was child size for $18

Shout out to Devin! My husband and I stopped by on a Saturday night. Devin was a fantastic server, he was so kind and kept checking in with us, making sure we were having a good time. Honestly, he made the whole night! My husband loved talking with him! The food was great, ambiance was fun, and the DJ upstairs was such a hoot. Can't wait to come back! read more

Klondike Kate's - Bavarian Pretzels - Bars Near Me - Newark, Delaware

Went for dinner. Ordered a Philly cheesesteak sandwich. I am Gluten Free, so got the GF bread option. Sandwich came out on a small hamburger bun at a $4 upcharge. Maybe 4 bites, all for $21.00. Also add ons, mushrooms and onions would have been added upcharges​. TOTAL RIP OFF. Server was great, but never again. read more

Horrible experience. The rudest service I have ever had at a restaurant/bar. They charged us to enter but let others enter for free when there was a line. When I questioned this they got in my face and tried to argue. Extremely unprofessional and unreasonable. The men at the door just want money and are on a power trip. They favorite people they know and let them in for free. read more

Different Cheesesteak'esque sandwich #1130. Special Wednesday drinks and cheesesteaks with Amigo Dan. High expectations and horrible service ruined what could have been a very nice stop. They did agree to our special order without hesitation. The special was a hot honey grilled cheese. We asked if they could make us a hot honey grilled cheesesteak. They said yes. It was downhill from there. We had visions of a sandwich drenched in cheese. That didn't happen. Special order, okay. But the service was horrible. We were sitting at the bar and had to wait for drinks. A couple sitting at a table in the bar area had to have the host get them another round of drinks. The bartender's three friends at the end of the bar got great service. read more

Amazing staff. Tom was incredible (2016). I think he created a soup called the "Half C's" a play on "Half Seas". It combined clam chowder and the crab bisque. To die for. Thanks again. read more

Service was great, portions were sufficient and the food was all tasty. Typical college town bar that's generally crowded and loud, but lots of seating (including outdoors). Try the cheesesteak egg rolls! read more

Ordered a cheessteak hoagie and my husband ordered a main street burger. Both came with fries. Food was delivered in a timely manner. Had a coke and my husband had a Stella artois.

It wasn't very busy when we arrived for an early dinner and service was really slow. There were times we could not get our server's attention or was told she was busy. We just saw her in the beginning to order and at the end; however, we needed refills and ketchup during service so we were a little disappointed. The beggars purse pasta had a nice pesto like sauce and the pasta was al dente. There were a fewer shrimps than expected for the price. The salmon beurre blanc was average and the carrots in the medley were a little too undercooked as it was crunchy compared to the other vegetables. The Kates Rum Bucket was decent in terms of flavor but it was more like a juice as opposed to a cocktail as there was hardly any alcohol in it. In hindsight I would not have ordered it if it was so watered down. read more

We went last night to check out the Sleigh Bar. They do a SPECTACULAR job with the decorations! Lots of hard work put into that. Our server was amazing. I wish I knew her name. She was so nice and attentive but not overbearing. She recommended a pizza box to take home our nachos! Even that was almost not big enough! Food was delicious. The chicken quesadillas were some of the best I've had. The honey mustard was sweet and delicious. Crab bisque was full of flavor and lots of crab meat. Christmas themed drinks were delicious. I was too full to get the Christmas crack but I have a reason to go back . read more

This is a long-standing bar in a college town that happens to serve food. My wife and I were visiting my daughter for parents weekend and decided to hit this place up for Sunday brunch. As a student in the 1980's, I didn't have enough papers to be able to patronize this place back then. The food was very good; however, the kitchen is slow. I highly recommend the sticky buns as they tend to run out frequently. read more

We were there at 12:29 and Tim Yardley did not allow us to enter because they "did not allow people after 12:30". We were also flipped off by the bouncer. Would not recommend. read more

We visited my son at University of Delaware and he took us here for lunch. The only reason they get a 4 instead of 5 is that it was 1:30pm. Only the brunch menu was available. The menu change occurs at 2pm. I did struggle to find something I wanted to eat at first. My husband had the crab bisque and a chicken Caesar wrap. He really enjoyed both. My son had the Sunny Side burger with a side Caesar salad. The burger was huge; he didn't finish it all although he was able to finish the fries. I had the sweet and spicy wrap. Both wraps were served with fries which were hot and good. Our server Theresa was very happy and attentive. I would definitely eat here again. read more

Stopped buy for a quick lunch. Monday is their 5$ off burgers. I ordered Sunny up burger mid well and asked if thw hush homefries could be replaced by a small salad, the John, the waiter (John) said yes. The burger was good, the tiny salad was . The only surprise was to find that the waiter charged me $3 dollars for the house salad as a side order, even though before he said i would get it as a replacement for fries. I did not want to argue over 3 bucks. But buyer beware now applies to Klondike Kate's n my book. Thus they loose a star. read more

Klondike Kate's - Side entrance - Bars Near Me - Newark, Delaware

Klondike Kates is a place that I've been coming to for years. It's definitely a great college bar to go to for cheap drinks and entertainment. But as a restaurant, I've noticed the quality in food has gone down. They have taken so many things off the menu, and the things they decided to keep are pretty basic. The Buffalo bills chicken sandwich and bbq pulled pork Mac and cheese sandwich are what I've tried most recently. They're fine, nothing to ride home about. There was A LOT more pulled pork than Mac and cheese on the sandwich. It was to the point where you couldn't really taste the Mac and cheese. The bbq sauce was also very overpowering and didn't really have a Smokey taste to it. And the fries were pretty underwhelming. Barely warm and tasted kind of old. I hate saying this about the food because I truly still love this place. Their drinks are always on point, and the service here is always awesome. John was our server the last time and he was incredible. read more

Solid Pub! The place is very charming.., the beer is cold to perfection and the food is pretty good as well. We had for appetizers a monstrosity of a nacho chicken bbq plate that was DELICIOUS! For me, hands down the best plate of the lunch. We also got chicken Buffalo sandwiches that were just ok; the sauce was little too acidic for my friend and the awesome sunny side burger that was loaded with bacon, hash browns and fried egg. The portions are very generous and prices are like in any other decent pub. read more

Unbelievable, a huge bouncer can manhandle a 140 pound patron because he stepped backwards and accidentally stepped on the bouncers foot with his shoe. Which by the way was a sanuk. Then the bouncer assaulted the patron, grabbing him up, lifting him up off the floor and literally tossing him out. I mean, seriously was the bouncer having a bad day or what ? This establishment is a frequented crowded bar. There's no need to manhandle somebody because they backed up into you read more

This review is for the food, not drink. Get the nachos! We tried the Buffalo chicken ones but I would expect them all to be delicious. People in my party ordered meals with grilled chicken (wrap and a salad). Beware, the grilled chicken is BLAND...like so bad it should be avoided. Get the fried chicken or make sure the grilled chicken is sauced somehow. Otherwise, great menu and prices. Would return. read more

This is one of the best spots on Main Street jn Newark! I've been here twice, once on a Thursday (lunch wing special, dine-in only), and one on a Wednesday (lunch half off wraps, sandwiches, and salads dine-in only). Every day of the week there is a lunch dine-in special. This place gets packed, a lot of people waiting for a table. However, they move fast! I didn't wait too long to be seated, waited about 10 mins for a server to introduce herself, and 15-20 mins for the food to come out. I got a chicken chaser wrap with French fries! Very much recommend! It's healthy and not healthy, but portion size of French fries is small - so you don't feel bad about yourself after, haha! Lemonade-Iced Tea twist was so good! I also had left my wallet behind one time... they kept it for me and all the money was there! Very trustworthy place and has definitely earned future business with me! read more

Klondike Kate's has been around for ever. I first visited KK's when I was a college student, and I finally returned as a family man and father of two boys. We came because they offer a kids eat free deal on Wednesday night, which included free face painting and balloon animals. There are about 6 options for kids (free meal with the purchase of an adult meal). It comes with a junior entree, side, and drink. My wife ordered a salmon salad. I ordered a small plate of loaded nachos that included chopped up chicken fingers, fries, and a load of other ingredients. I should not have ordered this, as it's more for sharing and I couldn't finish half of it. Rather, my recollection of KK's from my younger days included tasty jumbo buffalo wings. I should have gone this route, but there's always next Wednesday. Our check for a family of four ended up being $34. Not bad. They also brought out drinks in a nice KK's plastic tumbler. I wanted to take it home with me, so I asked the server if it was okay to do so (my wife insisted that I ask). The server said sure and went into the kitchen to get me a new one. She came back with 4. read more

Hadn't been here in forever. Tried to go tonight. Tell me they won't seat me on the deck. Beautiful summer night. Won't seat me on the deck. Plenty of seating. I left along with my two kids. Why stop seating on the deck at 7:30pm on a Friday night. Horrible business decision. Who wants to be cooped up in your smelly bar on a beaut night like tonight? No UD--you'd think they'd want the business. Stupid. Reminds me why I never come to Main Street. Already have to pay for parking. Now this. Dumb. read more
