The chilli is out of this world ! I would highly recommend Westbrook my family and I've been going there forever. read more

Convenient, affordable and a decent product. It's a local joint and very affordable but basic just bar fare. So if you want wings Chicken fingers etc. try it. read more

If you want a place that's small, cozy and serves decent food and delicious burgers with weekly specials and good drinks, then the Westbrook Restaurant is your place. Located in Bound Brook on Talmage Rd, you can usually catch a live band playing on Friday or Saturday night. The restaurant is run by a woman named Julie and she and her staff do a great job of making everyone feel welcomed. They are very attentive and courteous to all patrons. Since it is a small place I suggest reserving a table. During the summer months the bands can play outside on their patio. If you happen to be there on The 4th of July everyone goes outside and can see the local fireworks right from the patio. The Westbrook does have a parking lot but it's not that big and can get full so you'll have to park on the street. This place seems to be getting better and better. The Westbrook is a diamond in the rough. read more

The most inviting bartenders, DJs, karaoke hosts, and staff anyone could hope to find! The food is classic bar-style food, and it's delicious. Some places have only a couple of greasy, fried dishes on their menu. The Westbrook manages to keep it classic, yet classy. Love, love, love this place! read more

My husband and I stopped here on our way back to PA from NY. So glad we did. The food was great. Generous portions. My husband had a burger and fries and I had chicken fajitas. Everything was delicious. Bartender doubled as the waitress--we came in on a Tuesday afternoon--she was really nice. It seemed like a few locals were there and must be their hangout. Quiet place ... has indoor and outdoor dining. Clean. read more

Great bar, great vibes, karaoke every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Always a good time, amazing onion rings, solid chicken wings, cheap pitchers of beer, what more do you need. Love this spot read more

The food is delicious. Great service. Raj you have an amazing place I will definitely be back. read more

The Westbrook is a great little bar and restaurant with a welcoming relaxing vibe. Kaylee and all the staff are friendly and attentive. I've been coming here for about 5 years and seen the menu go through a few changes. It's always been a good menu and currently it's excellent! The Westbrook keeps getting better and better! Most recently I ordered the shrimp tacos which were delicious and spicy. We come here for dart league some nights and other nights theres a band or open mike. In the summer it's pleasant to be seated at the patio out front. An additional plus is that you can see the Patriots Stadium fireworks from the patio. Juliann the owner has created a really nice place here and I highly recommend it for casual dinner! read more

We had planned to go to dinner with our good friends. Their adult son and our adult son both had their plans fall apart so they joined us. We tried a place that my friend likes but they could not accommodate our now larger party. I remember having good experiences at The Westbrook Restaurant and Bar, so I suggested that we go there. There was room in their large parking lot for our large car and room at our choice of tables for our group of six. My favorite server in the whole wide world, Kate, took extremely good care of us. They have a great selection of draft beer for us enjoy. Everyone's meal was delicious. The pork on the bone special was incredible with this moist, breaded, perfectly cooked and seasoned chop served with a real nice salad. Props to the chef. The service was outstanding. After we settled the bill, yet another attractive young lady, most likely a manager or owner, checks to make certain we were pleased and to wish us a good night. If you like a sports bar atmosphere, non-pretentious comfort food and beverages, and delightful service, you need to visit The Westbrook Restaurant and Bar. It isn't often that I have so many good experiences that I can give my highest recommendation to a place. The Westbrook has earned that distinction. read more

Warning new owner as of January. Significant increase in prices. Food specials are gone. Burgers used to be great. Now looks like a frozen patty. No more prime rib or great seafood. Used to have great clam chowder. GONE!! Was one of my favorite places. read more

I love this place! Good quality food, nice employees + all employees are on top of their service. Fun place to eat and enjoy drinks. All employees are welcoming, especially Ashley. She's fun and friendly. No complaints whatsoever of this place, highly recommend for anyone looking for quick service, quality food, and a good time. 5 stars! read more

We had our Mom's repass luncheon with 40 people. From the staff to the waiters and waitresses, the service and the food were excellent. No one had to look for a waiter or waitress they were on top of everything. I wouldn't hesitate going there for dinner and will definitely let them handle any parties we may have. read more

The food is just amazing. We only had the appetizers and we are full. The service is amazing and we just met the owner. He's so down to earth and very pleasant. I would come to eat here again and again. read more

Consistently great service. Delicious food. Always something good on the menu. Bonus: live music on Saturday and open mic on Wednesday. Say hi to Jules. She's always around to make sure you're happy. read more

Everything you love about a towny bar and more. Solid food. Suprisingly good fried calamari app. All around great place for a few drinks and some grub. But.. ..my favorite part, the Friday night Karaoke! Even Brittany the bartender sang for us. There wasn't a bad singer in the house which made the night exceptional. Even if you don't want to sing catch a late dinner there one Friday and enjoy the superb live entertainment. First DJ I've seen where you text in your song requests. Very cool. And, he doesn't play favorites with the line up so you're in good shape even if you're not a regular. read more

So I've been coming here for about 4 months good service I'm like a regular here now and o my one who know my drink and good order is Ashley the other see me coming every day and same old what you like so I'll give a gold star to Ashley she's super nice and chill read more

First time here Live band Lots of choices on the menu Fast, friendly service Highly recommend ! read more

I have been coming to The Westbrook since we moved to town about 2+ years ago... was always a great place to meet new friends and hang out with ones we've made since coming. However, that's all over now... Jules sold the bar and it's been downhill since. What once was a place that offers fantastic prime rib, seafood, burgers and soups (all freshly made by chef) has now become a place to drink overpriced drinks and fried greasy food. Thankfully I have my friends... we will be still hanging out... but not here again. Beware of the fluctuating drink prices! read more

The New Westbrook Inn is one of my favorite places! The regular menu has so many amazing dishes, from Fresh Meat Burgers, not frozen, to a homemade Meatloaf that is to die for. Homemade potato chips are the side to get instead of French Fries and add that brown gravy on the side...just wow! The kicker is the specials menu....this chef they have there whips up some incredible dishes. I've never had a special that I wasn't thrilled with. The staff is always so friendly and makes you feel like you've been coming in for years. Very helpful with any questions about the menu and very accommodating with any special requests with the food. If you haven't tried this little nook by the Ballpark, you are missing out. read more

I accidentally happened upon this tavern because I was looking for a location that was about the same distance away from several folks who lived in opposite directions. What a pleasant surprise! We got a warm welcome from the bartender and manager. Happy hour prices were great and the food was delicious. Nice low-key atmosphere and local bar feel. I would highly recommend and will definitely go out of my way to go back! read more

Stumbled upon this place online when searching for open mics in NJ. It's small but quaint. When we walked in the "stage" set up is right to the right of the entry door so it was sort of surprising to walk in and distract the viewers for a second upon our arrival. The bartender was very nice and we had made it just in time to order food. (Kitchen closed at 10pm which was kind of a bummer) It was a mixed crowd I'd say early twenties all the way to 60/70s folk. We tried the chicken finger appetizer. Food came out pretty quickly and it was even hot! Very good chicken fingers. Will be visiting again next time for open mic! read more

This place has improved soooo much since new ownership Best food around great atmosphere superb bartenders and reasonable prices everyone should come and try it. read more

I used to eat lunch here all the time when I worked in Somerset, I couldn't get enough of their club sandwiches. Once I had a much needed change of employment in another town, I kind of forgot about the WBI. Until last summer, when I saw them on restaurant.com. I went here for dinner. We sat outside and ordered the four cheese pasta, a comfort food style baked macaroni dish. Delicious, and enough for 2 large meals. My husband got the zesty ziti, which was equally large and yummy. The service was great and the drinks were well made and reasonable. read more

Pleasantly surprised. I would give this a 4 star review but held back due to the closeness to the road and outside appearance. The food definitely gets a 4. A friend and I were on the road looking for a place to eat in unfamiliar territory and found The New West Brook Inn through Yelp. The reviews mention their great specials and they were spot on. Don't let the outside visual scare you - the place is clean and the staff is friendly and accommodating. We sat at the bar and listens to Hal who was the open mic performer for the evening - cheers to Hal. We each went with a special of pork loin stuffed with ham, spinach, garlic and sun dried tomatoes. It came with green beans, mashed potatoes and a house salad. The pork was terrific and green beans were fresh and still slightly crisp which I prefer. The menu has a standard variety of burgers and sandwiches along with several entrees but the scoop is that the owner lets the chef do their thing and select the specials for the day - this is where the chef's talent shines! Thank you fellow Yelpers for the detailed reviews. read more

Extremely accommodating to large parties. Fast and friendly staff. Good bar food and reasonably priced. A nice little dive to visit.

Surprisingly good. We decided to try this new place and didn't realize that it was mostly a bar when we got there...just that it was a restaurant that served booze. The chili was really good, the staff very friendly and the atmosphere quiet (there was only another group there). read more

Great food Glbt friendly always good music. My partner and I enjoying going out for dinner and music here.

Service is GREAT! The bartender and wait staff are attentive and fast. The food is OK. But, the portion sizes for the price is NOT good at all. I am reading other reviews saying the portions are ample. That may have been the case even as recently as two months ago, but they seem to be smaller and smaller each time. They have good live music there many weekends. read more

I just had to drunken clams and ordered the seafood fried Diablo for an Entrée... so far everything has been excellent.... this may be my new favorite spot....People behind the bar friendly and the owner is very courteous read more

Come here fairly regularly. They just put in a new menu with two new cooks. Everything looked and tasted great. Need to come back again to try other things but the BLT and cubano were great. read more

My friends and I went to see one of our friends sing there at 7 on a Saturday night. The restaurant was a small room with a bar. The food was over priced for the quality and portion size. There was barely anyone there expect for some locals that knew everyone by name. They seemed to had a permanent seat at the bar. The service was good and the people working were very nice. read more

Quaint local establishment! Came because of Yelp reviews and had a real good meal. Kaylee was our waitress and her welcome personality was appreciated. Unexpected welcome from Jules the owner made a cool impact! French onion soup was dee-licious and I had the chicken/shrimp combo, my hubs the Westbrook grill. They made an xtra-dirty martini to my husband expectations, which most fail to produce. Varied selection on the menu will bring us back again! read more

First lets start by saying I was skeptical at first. The place is dark and dingy. The clientele looked like they just crawled out of some god forsaken hole. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious, and the prices dirt cheap. If you can get past the looks, it's a winner! Beauty is truly in the Eyes of the Beholder. read more

Local bar, eight taps, Bud, Miller, Rolling Rock, Yuengling, Stella, Brooklyn Ale, Guinness, one which I don't recall. Back bar is very limited. Fourteen seats at the bar, plus 10 four tops and a couple of two tops. Several tables on the front patio with umbrellas. Seems to attract an older crowd at lunch. Across from the Somerset Patriots stadium. Decor is a bit down scale but it's a neighborhood joint, not a dive bar. Three flat screens behind the bar. Sirius radio on playing rock and roll. Bartender at lunch today also was our waitress. Friendly and efficient. Food came out of the kitchen promptly. We split the crab cake appetizer which was good but not special. We both had cheeseburgers - good beef, cooked properly, decent roll, fries were very nice. OK for a quick lunch. Cheeseburger with fries was only $7.95 plus tax. read more

We had zero expectations given the rough exterior of the joint. Despite the refurbished interior, this is still just a bar with aspirations sadly out of reach. We found parking at 6pm, tight but we're in. We went as a family, so the "kids" aspect was in play. We snagged a four top before the place filled up. We figured it must be a local hit, lots of folks speaking easy with the hostess. The hostess seemed to remember me, but I can't for the life of me figure how. Ah well. We ordered two burgers (one a double-double), French dip sandwich, Pulled Chicken Sliders, calamari, and a fried cheese appetizer that blew me away. I ordered medium-well on my double-double and got two hockey pucks. My son's burger was medium well. Hmm. The wife's calamari came out warm, not hot, but the sauces were very tasty. My daughter did not like the sliders, but I actually did. Pineapple chunks in them really worked. The house chips were over-salted, which is hard to do with potato chips. The "skinny" fries were good but they are shoestrings, dunno why they had to be skinny. One batch was also over-salted. What the hell is it with the salt shaker? Hey, they had Guinness on tap, so it was worth a star. A star for the sliders and fried cheese appetizer. More stars are possible for consistent service (waited awhile to pay and exit), better execution of the burgers, hot food, and a lighter touch on the salt. Oh, and please repaint the men's room. If we drop a c-note on a meal, cover up your joint compound. --# read more

We went here for lunch on a Saturday. It was pretty early so there weren't too many people at the bar. It started to fill up while we were there. I have to say I was blown away by the food. My husband made in his words a "safe choice" by ordering a chicken sandwich and he said it was great and he wished he went with something more complex. We will definitely go back and try more on the menu. I had the caprese grilled cheese which was awesome. Not greasy at all! Also, the shoestring fries are fabulous. The bartender Brittany was great! We will definitely be back! read more
