Nomad Bar

What a diamond in the rough!  Nomad is truly a hidden gem in Wilmington DE.  Finding a parking spot on the street wasn't an issue when we discovered Nomad last Friday night.  AND there's NO cover!!  Wow. You could hear the beautiful live jazz music a block away, and the artists were amazingly friendly.

The inside of Nomad is so cozy and inviting.  The style is quite modern, and the bar is beautifully designed.  The bartenders are quick to serve you with a warm smile.  I believe they have about 8 rotating draft brews and several speciality cocktails.  Their wine menu seemed extensive too.  Also, the locals are extremely friendly!

They say this is a local favorite- I completely see why :)  I'd be here often if I lived in Wilmington!

When people ask me what Nomad is like, I say "sort of like the bar in the Overlook Hotel from The Shining".  Well, that is without Jack Nicholson and Lloyd.

But there's something about Nomad that feels classic, like it's been here before.  The vibe, that amazing bar, the expert staff and those delicious cold drafts and perfectly created drinks.  Why would you ever want to leave?

I also had the chance to play a gig at Nomad, and the vibe was crazy, with folks from various walks of life making Nomad a great melting pot of fun.

Prob one of the best bars in Wilmington. The best patrons, the best service, the best music, the best owners. You won't find any bedazzeled dragons on tee shirts in this bar. The prices are more then fair and I struggle with telling people about it. I want to keep it my little secret but Linda and her husband (owners) deserve all the guests they can get. Get in there early as the place gets packed. Shake hands with the staff and they'll remember you for life. Cheers!
