Golden Rail Pub — Restaurant in New Brunswick

Today I went to every bar in the New Brunswick area, and this one was the last on my list, sadly I wasn’t allowed in because of what i was wearing, which was joggers because it was 28° F weather. It’s funny because when I went in a few weeks ago wearing the exact same thing I got in and no where on the website does it say you have to wear only jeans either...this makes me feel like it’s a race thing and depends on the bouncer. Every time I go I always see a fight with the bouncers and they are always making excuses of why you are personally not allowed in. For instance last week there was this Indian guy who was waiting on line, the bouncer let 4 girls cut him and then said “you cut the line you aren’t allowed in”...he didn’t cut the line and i watched as this guy wasn’t allowed in the whole night. Save your time and go to Queen’s Tavern, Scarlet Pub, or wherever because this place will let you down with their poor...

Opening night left much to be desired. Poorly mixed music with air horn sound effects and voiceovers every twenty seconds. Bartenders looked like they’ve never mixed drinks before and portions very small for price. Additionally, security did little to ensure the safety of guests. A guest who was either allowed in over-inebriated or was over-served shoved a girl to the ground and, while removed from the bar, security did nothing to follow up with the visibly injured girl. Upon requesting assistance, I was told that since he had already left there was nothing for them to do. I get that this is your first bar and can look past the music and drinks but if the safety of your guests isn’t your #1 priority you shouldn’t be open, simple as that. Shame on the security and management...

Ahh, the good ol' "Grail". . .

Been here plenty of times during my younger ventures in my college years - They've renovated the place with some new entertainment systems added: a new audio system with an upgraded DJ Booth - Plenty of drinks and to my surprise 'Top-Shelf' liquors on the ready to be served in your shot glass or cup.

Prices are reasonable and infact a little cheaper than some of the other haunts on Easton Avenue - Had a great time during the World Cup finals of ARG v. FRA. The Owners are kind, and friendly - glad to serve drinks with some bar snacks (last time there was goldfish crackers & pretzel filled peanut butter nuggets)

You can also stop by for a coffee here and have it with a shot of soju, which makes it...
