A new hangout that mixes samosas with sports is nearly set to hit downtown Trenton. Trenton Sports Bar & Restaurant is moving into the compact corner space at 4 East State Street, where it plans to plate Indian and Nepali dishes like biryani, tandoori, curries and momos alongside a full bar. Owner Rohit Chhetri has told local outlets he and his team are aiming to open soon, and construction crews are already at work. The spot will tuck into a tight little cluster of food businesses on State Street, with Dragon China next door and Martin’s Donuts directly across the street.
Where it’s going and when
According to What Now Columbus, the bar and restaurant is taking over the former Hook’s Fish and Chicken space at 4 E. State Street, and buildout is already in motion. The outlet reports that owner Rohit Chhetri said he and his crew are “hoping to open in about a month,” and notes that ownership has been sharing progress photos on social media. As described by What Now Columbus, the concept is a casual sports bar that leans on South Asian flavors for its food lineup.
Menu and hours
The restaurant’s own site highlights an Indian and Nepali menu that includes chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken biryani and steam chicken momos, and it promotes dine in, takeout and catering options. The site lists kitchen hours as Wednesday through Monday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., with Tuesdays closed. It also provides a local phone number and an online ordering page so customers can lock in early reservations and keep tabs on updates.
Where it fits on State Street
The newcomer is sliding into a compact restaurant row in downtown Trenton, directly beside Dragon China and across from Martin’s Donuts. What Now Columbus points out the corner footprint and current construction work, while local restaurant directories list Dragon China at 8 E. State St. and Martin’s Donuts at 4 W. State St., underscoring how several small food businesses have clustered on this short stretch of State Street.
What to watch next
If the projected timeline holds, Trenton Sports Bar & Restaurant will add South Asian flavors to the city’s casual dining mix while offering game day seating alongside a full bar.
