    Wow, they redid the place! It's actually kinda clean now. I loved the old Court Tavern, filth and all, but even with the re-do, it still feels like Court Tavern. Good music, decent drinks, and a generally good (if young) crowd. Nice to see this reliable old dive bar still kicking it.

    The tavern is BACK! While keeping its traditional 'dive-bar' theme you can definitely tell this place has been fixed up! Not only that: AWESOME bands.  I think alot of people don't know its back up but I'll tell you, band line-ups are sweet, AMAZING acoustics in the basement and did I mention drink prices are A+? Its a place you want to check out even if you've been there before, now that its not as dumpy. Definitely going to be coming back!

    The best aspects of the place may have been independent of the bar itself, but I still hate to see it close down.  RIP and someone let me know where the bands that played here will go next...?  Sigh.

    The Court Tavern is a true dive bar in New Brunswick. It wasn't as gross as I thought/heard it would be, but I'd still give is 2.5 stars and an "Okay." rating.

    Drinks are cheap, the basement is a little scary and smelly, the bathrooms don't have soap. They usually have bands or a deejay playing on certain nights and they're cool with outside food being eaten at their bar, which is nice.

    This isn't really my scene, but I'd go back if I had to.

    This place is great! Cheap drinks, fun people, and live music. If you're looking for a place in New Brunswick to go that doesn't have huge line out the door and pricey watered down drinks, this is the place to go! Shows are downstairs so you wont have to pay the cover if you just want to visit the bar!

    Old school! Cool vibe, cheap beer, time warp. Go during off-hours and enjoy what a pub used to be like. Just some locals sitting around, chatting.

    Great fucking bar.  Friendliest crew of people on earth.  I only come to Jersey a few times a year, and I NEVER miss grabbing a drink and show at the Court Tavern.

    So the Court Tavern is one of the last punk venues in New Jersey.  There is a lot of music history here.  Recently though, the Court has fallen on hard times when it comes to paying their taxes.  For the second year in a row they have asked for people to help out and save them from foreclosure.  At this point, even though it's a punk institution it appears as if they don't like the responsibility of owning a business.  A shame but at least the Asbury Lanes is still around.

    It's a great dive bar. The people are nice, they have fun music and cheap beer. What more could you ask for?!

    Love it! They have a great jukebox upstairs, where you can hang with all sorts of cool people and then if you want to pay go downstairs and see a cool show! woo

    what a dump. I went here once to see a live band with the bf, and I won't ever go back. Hot, crowded, small and watered down mixed drinks, slow service. ugh. NB has alot of better places to go.

    Went to Court Tavern for the first time since I was an undergrad (like 3 years ago)- nothing has changed! it's still the dive I remember it to be. Cheap drinks, but sometimes they'll tell you a tap is out so you buy a more expensive beer by the pitcher (they usually only have like 3-4 beers on tap). It's the very essence of a dive bar, and since Mccormicks closed a couple of years ago, if you're into a good juke box and that kind of scene, Court Tavern is where to go.

    They have lots of live music, but note that there is sometimes a cover.

    Definitely a dive bar.  Smelly, but not that much.  Kinda laid back.  Very cheap, and so I wish I went here more when I was an undergrad at Rutgers.  Definitely don't go when its packed because its really dark.  Bands play here often too.

    I lived in "No Funswick" a few years ago. The Court Tavern was always a good time. Good Shows and good people. It's a real deal dive and it's part of the stuff that makes up scene history I hope it's always there.

    I can't believe I've never reviewed the Court Tavern before. I'm a Brooklynnite, but this is one of my most favorite places on earth. The drinks are cheap and super stiff, the music is great, the ambiance is total dive chill, and there's an awesome back room to veg out and booze up with yoru friends.

    I love going to see my friends Spiraling (<a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.spiraling.net&s=0567944c0095eca9c5300bc2c91f9b92dd1bbeb5de7baec0b686107ac7c6f838" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.spiraling.net</a>) play here. It is a really cool music venue. The upstairs is a pretty standard bar, but downstairs, there are lots of cool events to check out! Downstairs boasts a bar of its own, a stage area, and lots of room to dance and groove -- as well as a "back room" area with couches -- perfect for veggin' out.

    This is a great place for seeing music. Great acoustics, lots of room, and amazingly, you can pack a LOT of people into that space. Also, convenient bathrooms with more than one stall! A+!

    I have nothing but good memories from the Court Tavern.  It's big and roomy and has an all-scene/no-scene vibe where everybody can just kinda gel with whomever.
