Welcome to your friend neighborhood bar and sandwich shop. Tucked away on Lafayette Park, just a block from the downtown and seaport neighborhoods of Salem, MA, The Babe is the perfect place to rendezvous after work for a cocktail, grab a bite with friends, or get together for a late night celebration.

    Went for the New Year’s Day Hip Hop DJ Brunch and it did not disappoint! Tried the housemade donuts (cranberry orange & espresso martini), and they lived up to the hype 100%! Seriously, if we weren’t so full, I would have taken a couple of the orange-cranberry ones to go! Then we had chicken & waffles and the pastrami hash. The chicken was incredibly crispy and the hash was delicious- lots of peppers & onions to complement the pastrami. Music was loud (we were right in front of the DJ) with some great selections! Service was excellent as well. We will definitely be back!

    Always a favorite. Never disappoints. We like to sit in the bar/ lounge area and people watch. Great atmosphere and great food. We always get the crab cocktail and the tenderloin with the risotto. We love the dim lighting and the well made cocktails. This has been one of our favorite places to go to for years.

    One of THE BEST restaurants I’ve been to. I’m new-ish to the area, but my man and I go to “all” the places around….this was a Holiday lunch w my mom, so a whole new vibe w mom, of course! We couldn’t have had a better meal, timing (properly spaced meals), cocktails, coffee and dessert(we almost never get dessert!). Everything was PERFECT. Yulia, our server was kind, courteous, knowledgeable, and on point!!!! My mom and I have already planned our trip back!
