Wings
Julia R.

Food- I would recommend the wings, they are GREAT!!! If you went there and was satisfied with their food, then why not go back? Try their wings! Service- The service is VERY quick; most of the times it is only 15 minutes (approximately). The servers are very nice and interact great with you. Ambiance- A bar that is always packed with people. Tables are almost always packed. I would get a reservation just-in-case if you're planning to go there. My favorite part about Nick's are their wings! I am sure you will like them, too, just give them a try! (: :) The only reason why I gave Nick's 4 Stars is because there aren't a lot of items on the menu that I like. STILL, NICK'S IS SOOOOOO GOOD!!!

Lobster Roll
Nathan B.

After living in New Cumberland for over 20 years, we finally made our first visit to Nick's--and we were blown away. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and impeccably clean. The service, though a bit slow due to the busy evening, was friendly and attentive. We started with the large portabella mushroom stuffed with crab--phenomenal. That's a must-order again. But the real surprise of the night? The lobster roll. As someone who's traveled extensively through New England, I was hesitant... but I took the chance, and I'm so glad I did. It was, without exaggeration, one of the best lobster rolls I've ever had. (Yes, photo evidence attached.) Needless to say, my wife and I will absolutely be adding Nick's to our regular rotation. A true hometown gem we wish we had discovered sooner.

Spaghetti

My first time at Nick's was the week of Thanksgiving, and the place was packed. It really has the feel of a hometown, locals get together, and hangout kind of place. It was super casual but trendy sort of dining room with a lot of space. The menu has a lot of really good choices and we all had a difficult time deciding. I really enjoyed my French onion soup. The broth was really rich tasting. The open beef sandwich and fries was good but not outstanding.

Nick's is a great restaurant/bar near the bridge in New Cumberland. On the evening we visited, Nick's was bustling and had plenty of obviously well-trained and attentive staff. We sat at the bar for drinks and service was quick and friendly. My draft beer glass was very chilled and the beer itself (Yuengling draft) was also cold and refreshing. The restaurant has lots of TVs with many different sports selections. Volume was appropriate and not overpowering. Four stars only because we didn't try the food--but the restaurant was well-occupied so I think that says something. I look forward to dining at Nick's on a future visit.

Mild sauce.
Mike I.

Go-to spot. Always open. Tons of tables, tons of servers, consistently excellent food. You can wait for hours at the chain restaurants ... or you can just come to Nick's. Wings, crab cakes (served like 7 ways), salads, comfort foods ... cocktails galore. Are you still looking ... just go already.

Prime Rib sandwich as lunch special was served quickly and delicious.  Service was friendly and informative. Give them a try!

This little hole-in-the-wall sits on the backside of a rivertown, serving up old-school vibes and seriously good pizza. The dough and sauce are made in-house, and you can taste it -- crust was crisp yet airy, with a buttery richness and just enough chew to make each bite satisfying. Sauce had a bit of spice, cheese was bubbly, browned, and full of real-deal flavor (no sad, fake cheese here). Toppings? Plentiful and delicious. We came dangerously close to finishing the whole pie, stopping only two slices short. For drinks, my adventure buddy went classy with an Old Fashioned (good, but nothing to write home about -- and the bar's lack of Luxardo cherries made him sad), while I kept it real with a draft Miller Lite. The beer was cold and clean -- and honestly, from a hole-in-the-wall bar, that's something I appreciate. Bartender doubled as our waitress and handled it like a pro, even on a slow Monday night. The place is dark and cozy, decorated with lots of '50s-inspired artwork, and apparently has a rooftop bar -- sadly closed during our summer date night. The bill came to $42 for the pizza, two drinks, and a tip -- budget-friendly date night win. No on-site parking, but plenty of free curb spots out front or municipal lots a block away. Safe area for an after-dark stroll. If you're into unpretentious spots serving pizza that punches above its weight, Fratelli's is your jam.

First Watch's seasonal Pumpkin Pancake Breakfast delivers a well-balanced mix of sweet autumn spice…read moreand hearty savory elements, making it an easy favorite for fall. The star of the plate is the giant pumpkin pancake, which spans nearly half the dish. It features a golden-brown finish, light texture, and just the right amount of cinnamon and nutmeg warmth to complement the subtle pumpkin sweetness without feeling like dessert. A scoop of whipped butter right in the center melts smoothly into the warm cake, keeping every bite tender.  On the savory side, the Jones Dairy Farm chicken apple sausage patties bring a great contrast to the sweet spice of the pancake. They are cooked with a hard sear that creates nice crispy, caramelized edges. The subtle hint of apple in the sausage works surprisingly well with maple syrup and spices, offering a lean, savory bite.  The cage-free eggs round out the meal simple and soft-scrambled, cooked with clean, fluffy curds. They serve as a reliable, neutral protein anchor that keeps the plate grounded. Overall, it is a deeply satisfying and well-portioned seasonal breakfast that executes classic fall flavors without overwhelming you with sugar.

I stopped in for brunch this weekend with a friend after seeing their new menu and brunch specials…read moreon social media, and I'm so glad we did! We ordered the oxtails and grits along with a pitcher of pineapple mimosas. The grits were honestly some of the creamiest I've ever had! The oxtails were tender, very meaty, seasoned perfectly, and came with a delicious gravy. Everything was flavorful without being overly seasoned. And yes -- the mimosas were STRONG! I also ordered the strawberry stuffed French toast and bacon to take home, and it did not disappoint. The French toast was really good and, thankfully, not overly sweet. The service was another highlight. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of without being overbearing. I also really appreciated the atmosphere. The music was playing, but at a comfortable volume where you could actually enjoy it and have a conversation -- not the "why did I come here?" level of loud that some brunch spots have. The location is also a plus. It's far enough away from the busiest part of 2nd Street that parking wasn't a hassle, and they have their own parking lot, which is a definite bonus in downtown/midtown Harrisburg. Overall, this was a really enjoyable brunch experience. **Good food, strong drinks, great service, and a comfortable atmosphere.** I'll definitely be back to try more from the new menu!

Honestly it's a bummer that I can't say this was a 10/10 experience. I will preface this review…read morewith saying I think this establishment has so much potential. The food is good! The creativity is there! The building has a wonderful layout and beautiful bones. However, the prices, & service are just not where I think they need to be in my opinion. I think this is an example of an establishment that wants to be looked at as more of a fine dining experience but has items like 4 whole wings and fries on the menu and then priced at $25.00 dollars... and the waitress may or may not remember you placed a appetizer order. With that being said I would still recommend if in the area and you're craving soul food. We unfortunately don't have many restaurants that service this kind of food so I still think it's very important to support and I personally look forward to watching this place continue to grow.
