New Heights Bar & Grill

This establishment is bullshit! I signed a contract months earlier booking a event… they waited exactly 9 days before my event to tell me they double booked and my event was canceled! Even though my event was booked first.

Nothing and I mean nothing special about this place but ONE thing and I will get to that later. As all Unilocalers know you are eager to check-​in to establishments to see if they have any check-​in offers. Lucky for me New Heights did! A free drink or 4 wings for free. I show it to bartender and she says she has to ask her manager because she’s never seen that before. Ok no problem. She walks back into the kitchen and comes back with no response. Asked her a second time and she says she has to call the manager. My friend at this point then asks if the manager is on site and she says no (must be nice to manage remotely but I digress).
So we order our food wings, fries and drinks. Wing special is 50cents a wing but you must order at least 10(4−8pm) and drinks are $ 3 (4−11pm). We order a total of 40 wings, 4 drinks and one order of fries. Bartender says the total is $ 67! Uhm yea no try that again! She comes back with a number still not right. So now we walk her through it: wings– $ 20, drinks– $ 12, and fries– $ 4. Total of *drumroll please* $ 36 + tax! (By the way it’s a minimum charge of $ 20 on the card which is illegal by the way.) And she goes «oooohhh *makes up some dumb excuse about the system that didn’t make any sense*».
Now that finances are squared away we are waiting for our food. My two friends wings come out and I have to wait an additional FIFTEEN MINUTES for mine? Like huh? We ordered the same time, we are together, therefore we should get our food relatively closely. No the case here. She gave me two different excuses as to why my food wasn’t coming out. I ordered 5 fried wings, 5 Bbq wings and 5 buffalo wings (heads up all wings are fried before sauce is put on). The fried and Bbq wings were amazing. Buffalo not so much. Would I be back again, prolly just for an order of wings to go and then I’m out.
For some reason the season from Harlem Nights kept playing in my head and I kept thinking my baby toe was gonna get injured lol.
This place is a dive so don’t expect anything fancy. Oh yea the Dj sucked last night as wel.

When I’m in Brooklyn, my friend loves to come here for the cheap drinks. I’ve been here multiple times over the years and always have a good time. My friends and I drink then hit the dance floor. Just my girls and I having fun. They even played pool once. There isn’t anything fancy about this place but if you just want to chill and get some drinks and listen to some cool, old school music you should check it out if you are in the area. I would never go out of my way to come here.

We had a good time at this spot. The music and the sound system was good (but dare I say, maybe a little too loud?) and they played a nice mix of popular and classic hip-​hop and reggae.
The bar staff was no-​nonsense but friendly and attentive. There is a nice outside sitting area that is covered by an awning so we didn’t get wet in the rain.
The highlight of this place was the food. We only had appetizers but they had some of the best wings and sweet potato fries I’ve had in a long while. I had to stop myself from ordering more food by promising myself to come back and see if it was actually the food or the free shots the bartender gave us that influenced my decision.
A very unassuming spot to have a very nice time.

Those wings are great, the quesadillas were good, the crab cakes were good but too small for $ 8, the $ 2 shots on Wednesday’s hit the spot if ur low on cash.

Please don’t let the glossy pictures on Facebook fool you. There is nothing classy about this place. it is what it is. The food is good and the drinks are cheap. Outside of that its pretty basic.

I moved to this neighborhood six months ago and see this place all the time. Last night after cleaning stuff out of my apartment all day (I’m leaving New York next week) I had the idea to stop for a visit. It ended up being a great time, and showed me a new perspective on what I look for when «going out».
Three dollar drinks were poured all night, which fired up my ordering the chicken parmigiana. The place serves generous portions of comfort food so good, it made me laugh. Really, I was tipsy and smiling wide as I cut up piping hot chicken with plastic utensils, playing with the cheese — and for only $ 10, including just-​as-​laughably good Fettuccine Alfredo, mac ‘n cheese and broccoli. If you’re looking for a fancy flatbread or some other bougie appetizer (or ceramic plates) check out Franklin Avenue.
Cool bartenders, good people, a couple TVs for sports (the Yankees taking the field is always a nice backdrop), I had such a warm, loving conversation about life with the lady next to me. Our conversation centered on community, on family, how people around here look out for each other. «Neighborhood bar» is a great way to describe this place. I don’t feel this about working Manhattan at all; everyone there is a number, an hourly rate; you will be swapped out for younger, cheaper, more energetic and obedient pieces, as America always has.
*clears throat, that’s the Jim Beam talking, as I still feel dinner digesting this morning*
As a place to unwind and reflect on life, this bar really takes it to new heights.

ZERO STARS WARNING! Do not go here! I worked here for one evening and during that evening I labored in the false belief that it was a reputable establishment. They have a backroom where the employees may store their possessions. At the end if my shift I was dead tired and more than ready to go home, so I did and went straight to sleep. The next day I check my purse and find my wallet, phone charger, and headphones to be missing. I didn’t use any off them when I was in the bar (or left the bar) and had all of them before I started my shift. It’s outrageous to think that either the employees stole my items, or that the bar’s policy is so lax that they let just about everyone access the backroom.

Came with some friends had a lovely time. Had some drinks & some food I order the baked chicken it was very good. they play some very good music I will come back again…

Good drink special, that’s it. Food is average. The atmosphere is hood. But there is fun if your looking for a cheap bar where you can drink. $ 2 Tuesdays and $ 3 Wednesdays.

I won’t do that again.
I guess I should start with a better set up than that. I cant speak for the actual bar or ambiance of the place since this review is for delivery. I found a flier by my car for this restaurant and remembered it while home one evening trying to decide what to order for dinner. I looked up their menu on line and was excited to see that they had buffalo wings– «Yes, I was craving those!» With the advice of a friend ringing in my ear (always be suspicious of ordering buffalo wing for delivery from ANY place, they always show up soggy), I decided to order the buffalo wings and a side entrée just In case this place failed on me. Besides, there was a minimum that I needed to hit anyway. In addition to the buffalo wings I ordered an entrée: grilled calamari, Mac n’ cheese and collard greens.
The woman that answered the phone was friendly and the delivery time was decent– delivery guy showed up within a 5 minute window to the time given on the phone. That was great. Delivery guy shows up, rings the bell and though I buzzed him in, he never came in. I later found out this was because he had his bicycle with him. Uhmm if I felt like opening the door to crosswinds, I may have gone out to eat. No biggie, well not really I guess.
The rundown on the food– not so good. Mac n’ cheese that only has cheese as the top layer– fail– I didn’t order plain macaroni noodles with a spritz of cheese, collard greens and calamari were ok, and buffalo wings… where do I start!?! The buffalo wings were in a sauce that was sweet like ketchup. It may have even been ketchup. I actually added hot sauce just to balance it out and there was alot of the ketchup-​like sauce.

This place is really friendly with great service. Sometimes you get the «im at Cheers» feel because its a spot that once you go you too become a regular. Been noticing that bartenders are changing often so dont get used to any one bartender. Food is good, their wings are the perfect bar food. Drinks are priced reasonable but can be a little stronger. I find it tacky when the bartender measures the drink in a shot glass before pouring it into your ice filled glass. It takes away the illusion of being given a real strong drink.
