The Nook Review - West Seattle - Seattle - The Infatuation

"The Nook is an impressive cocktail spot that’s disguised as a low-key neighborhood bar. Complete with a mismatched assortment of vintage living room sofas, a fireplace, and extremely friendly bartenders, you’ll find drinks like champagne spritzes, white negronis, and mules topped with torched marshmallows and rosemary. This place feels like what would happen if you stumbled upon an abandoned cabin in the forest, but instead of finding things like pinecones and a grizzly bear or two, there’s a master mixologist inside that makes anything you want." - Aimee Rizzo

We came to see the 80's revolution band perform. What a great band, very energetic! They had a full house and had us dancing til the end. We had a few appetizers at the bar/restaurant. Will definitely return. The Nook has great entertainment and I will continue to head on over to party!

The Nook hosted a family event for us recently and it couldn’t have been more perfect. They went above and beyond, the service was wonderful, the food was absolutely delicious, and the staff was phenomenal. The course is very scenic and beautiful. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be back!

Ordered at 12:54. Received my empanadas covered in melted plastic and a complimentary piece of corn.? Chips were stale and my friend is still waiting for his turkey club at 1:27. Not busy either but they can keep their plastic and dirty leftovers served with my meal. Left at 1:30 because the turkey club never came out. The bartender was very nice and apologetic but seriously, how can you not see all the plastic?

Came for the first time to check out their Karaoke night. Had an order of mozzarella sticks. They were chunky and crispy . The people here were very welcoming and I had a good time singing some old tunes at the karaoke. They have plenty of parking as well. Will be back

After a few early stumbles caused (learned at the end of the evening) by multiple last-minute call outs, the establishment owner came to our table to check on us. He arranged to replace a dish we ordered that did not first meet expectations. The replacement dish was excellent. The owner (I wish I had gotten his name) proceeded to check on tables, bus dishes, serve customers, and do everything possible to fill the gaps from being short several employees. Based on what I observed, the owner cares for his employees and customers. I would bet that he expected a much more relaxing evening personally, but when the situation called for it, he jumped in to help. It made a huge difference. I plan to return again, perhaps after the weather gets a bit better and it's less likely to have multiple call-outs on one evening. I imagine when the place is running full-tilt it must be amazing! I think it will be well worth the hour drive.

We had an event at The Nook on Saturday and was hands down Five Star all the way! From the beautiful set up of the room, the incredible food that was prepared and severed to the very hard working staff who ALL went above and beyond to make our experience top notch. We highly recommend The Nook for any event and keep up the GREAT job and thank you all!

I wish that I had tried this place sooner. I've been living in Warren County for almost 20 years and this place has flown under the radar since I don't frequent country clubs. The food here is phenomenal! They have a full bar also with some nice spirits minus my favorite chaser, Fever Tree which is elusive to almost everyone unfortunately. The service is fast and friendly from Joe the bartender and all of the kitchen staff. I'll be back for sure the next time I am in the Hackettstown area.

Very solid spot! I was initially off put by its location and parking, but once you're in the place is great. Decent drinks and food and good atmosphere: a solid place to spend some time with friends.

We were lazy tonight and ordered take out. I got the turkey club with fries, and a side of onion rings to share. My wife got the steak burger sliders with fries. We also ordered a second steak burger sliders for tomorrow. I'd like to add that we ordered wings and burgers here once before. The wings were horrible, and the burgers were not something I would order again. Tater tots were good though. Anyway, we thought maybe it was a bad night, so we gave them a second chance... The turkey club was very disappointing. They made a cheap small turkey deli meat sandwich, threw a piece of bacon on it and slid a third piece of bread in the middle. I felt like I was literally eating 3 pieces of bread with mayonnaise...that I added. They even forgot the cheese. The worst turkey club I ever saw. This is usually my sandwich of choice anywhere I go... so I've had a lot of them. The sliders were dry , overcooked and tasteless. I'm not sure why the fries, that came with the club, were a different type that the ones that came with the sliders.... But that's not a big deal. The thinner ones had a better taste. The onion rings were decent though. So we will not be ordering from here again. I just wanted to leave my review so I would save any others the disappointment. Really bad quality. I've never actually been to this place, maybe it's just a bar that doesn't really specialize in food. My wife suggested it so we gave it a shot.

I had some very tasty buffalo wings at The Nook on a Friday evening a few weeks back. Perfectly cooked with crispy exterior, and served in ample amount of sauce with generous portion of blue cheese on the side. Perfect wings, and nice to know Hackettstown has an alternative location for good wings! My partner ordered a cheeseburger, and it was cooked as requested, no complaints and served with an abundance of fries. The beer was super cold and fresh, and the bar staff was very attentive. I cannot speak to the table service, but the servers seemed to be running back and forth to keep everyone happy and full. It's so nice to see this historical business back open with the original family, as I understand it. They are featuring trivia and other fun during the week, live music on weekends. Check them out, nice little spot for certain and the staff really makes you feel like family.

Best burgers in town. Service was fantastic.. Friendly staff and the ambience is very cozy. You haven't tried the place. Give it a shot.

The service was good but there was only one waitress in the place. She tried her best and was very sweet. The food was downright awful. I literally could not eat mine and another lady told me the same thing. There is absolutely no ambience in this restaurant. Very stark and dark - not welcoming at all. I would never return.

We ordered food the appetizer came out at the same time as the meal and we didn't get forks or napkins while we are sitting right at the bar we also didn't get ketchup for the fries

I love that the Nook is back and Jim and Frank are at the reigns! Great ambiance, food and prices... They also have great shows too! And since they hired Michelle Catogge Scarcella it made the place that much better! She is a fabulous person, bartender etc.... she lights up the place and cares about her patrons.... keep up the great work! I'm coming all the way from Flemington taboot just cause the Nook is back and Michelle is there too!
