HADDON TOWNSHIP: Brewers Towne Tavern is a longtime local staple, a dive bar at heart, but elevated with an impressive beer lineup and a sprawling food menu that turns a casual stop into a full outing. Settle in at their Cheers-style bar, catch a game on the TVs, shoot some pool, or dig into a hearty meal in this comfortable throwback space. The menu covers all the essentials with burgers, bar pies, cheesesteaks, appetizers, & more, and even includes a vegan-friendly Beyond Burger option in place of their Black Angus patty. The Beyond Burger was cooked perfectly and genuinely one of the best I've had in ages, and the pulled chicken sandwich was tasty, and even the French fries deserve their own shoutout too. Staff keep things running smoothly, and the locals make the place feel instantly welcoming. read more

Brewers Towne Tavern - Pubs Near Me - Westmont, New Jersey

It is a classic dive bar, and a fairly good one. If you have a bit of a wold streak, you will probably like the place. Some of us meed that ability to be who we are and let the chips fall where they may. Others feel out of place because a certain amount of what some consider rowdy is tolerated to an extent. I can mingle or isolate and just listen to music. If you aren't sure, you should find out for yourself. read more

Enjoyed the music and vibes until the bartender gave me trouble for ordering water. Especially after being a paying customer at the bar, this is a shame. Not supportive of safety or sobriety. read more

Nice local bar. Friendly staff. Cheap beers. Pool table and sports on the TV. Good times. read more

Not a fan of this place as I am not really for dives. Might be ok for the locals. Reminded me of a classier Jay's Elbow. Came here as part of our Christmas bar crawl. ALready a decent amount of folks in there when we got there (we had a bigger group of like 20 or so people). Cash only place so luckily I had a few bucks to use and then had to bum a few more so I didn't have to tap ATM. Asked for a cranberry & vodka, the bartender thought I said cranberry vodka I guess so he told me they didnt have it. I was like what, how can you not have this? SO then he said they had vodka & cranberry. LIke really, IDC how you say vodka & cranberry????? I just wanted a drink. After I got my drink, went to go in the back and sit down the chat with everyone else. Did not order food or play pool or do anything else. Was just wondering how long we were gonna stay there b/c I wasn't feeling it. Luckily not too long. Not a place I would go back to. read more

Nothing fancy here, just a solid neighborhood dive bar. Average beer list, average bar food, but really nice people, both customers and employees alike. I live nearby and stop in every once in awhile. Just came here last Saturday with my girlfriend and a few friends. Great place to drink some cheap beer and shoot some pool for awhile. Lots of bars in the area so easy to make this just one stop on a larger bar crawl. We'll definitely be back. Cash only as others have mentioned. read more

Outdoor bar that has become almost a full fledged neighborhood nuisance. It used to be the immediate neighbors were only treated to night noise and air pollution from a few cig toting millennials out in front of the intersection, but now that sidewalk tables have been added, the congregation never leaves and has expanded to trashing at least two adjacent properties with plastic party cups and aluminum cans, strewn across the sidewalk and all the way across the street to the satellite parking, in addition to all of the stray cigs everywhere. Because the proprietor won't clean up after a shift, or do anything that resembles curbing its customer behavior, multiple letters have been left on the door by irate neighbors about the trashed sidewalks, to little or no avail. New management has slapped some new, blue siding on the place, which was a long overdue face-lift as it was often thought of merely as the town eyesore. They seem like they should be the type to want to have some semblance of pride in their investment, but the overall manifestation of that still has been lacking. Their interior renovation is ongoing which promises to add more comfortable and spacious seating. However, their having done away with acceptance of credit cards, and the departure from a once popular daily lunch special, makes this bar not worth it to even return to a second time. It offers nothing substantive to earn a loyal following. To the degree that I once felt welcome in the establishment as a home base for HT locals (their motto was "where friends meet"), I gotta say this is pretty much a last ditch option in a town that already has quite a vibrant bar/restaurant scene, by which this location has no longer seems keen on measuring up. read more

Cash only, one pool table, clean bathrooms, great attentive staff and friendly people

Major COVID rule-breaking here - people are on top of each other in the outdoor seating. Decent drink list. Reasonable prices. Fries were good. Decent local dive. read more

Truth be told it's a dive where regulars throw back drinks, play pool, eat greasy food and watch sports. You can totally come here in sweat pants and unshowered if that's your deal. The bartender was friendly. The greasy food is def not even worth mentioning. Parking? Good luck, Amigo. read more

One of the worst bars I've ever been to. And I LIKE a good dive bar. This was brightly lit, ramshackle and dirty, with leering patrons who felt anything but welcoming. Bad drink selection served in disposable plastic cups...?! Immediately wanted to leave, and after one drink I did. Yuck, guys. There was nothing appealing about this bar. Try harder! read more

Visited some friends and we wanted a quick bite and some drinks before the wedding in the evening. Headed to Brewers to get our day started. Environment: looked like it was street parking but can't confirm since we walked down to this neighborhood bar. Walked in and sat down at the bar where my friends were warmly greeted by the bartender. Few other customers enjoying their brewskis. They have a couple of TVs On with The Price is Right and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Food: we got the cheesesteak quesadilla and two order of wings. Food was classic bar food, not the greatest but still something to settle the hunger. The quesadilla came with salsa and sour cream and were loaded. Large bites required. We got the Hot and Honey Hot Wings. Naked, not breaded. Wings were cooked perfectly. Crispy even after saucing. The only qualm was that the sauces could have been more heavy. Comes with ranch and celery. Bottom line: good neighbors bar where "friends come to meet". read more

Cash only and charge a fee on atm. Saw three mice in the kitchen so thank god I didn't order food and only got beer. Got my id scanned twice by two different people at different times while in the bar. read more

I came here with a fellow yelper Jason K. after our original destination had been compromised by a reunion (Class of 83) with a live band all in one night. So we decided to come here to Brewers where we know we can actually enjoy a few libations . This place had a good crowd in here when we came in, I am assuming it was the holiday weekend, not like the other spot where we were at where you couldn't move. Local watering hole that I really can't call a dive bar, but yet it is a dive bar. Every town has their own version of a "Regal Beagle" that they can always count on to keep it a low key evening. Brewers has that vibe to it , a blue collar type of atmosphere where you come in for one purpose, and that is to have fun. A sports bar to the fullest with a decor like no other. Wood paneled walls with sports legends hanging all around. You have the different promotional beer signs or mirrors mixing and matching letting you know, " Hey its time to throw down a few pints, and lets get jovial". Again I can't really call it a dive bar, with the selections they have on tap. They have the usual suspects, but then they also have a few different seasonal, and crafts in the mix to indulge in. Their liquor selections were OK , I saw they had one of the Bourbons I enjoy so this was good enough for me. I had the pleasure of having Miss Megan as a bartender who showed a great deal of patience with the ongoing crowd. Our drinks never saw the bottom of the glass, that right there makes you want to come back as a repeat. With the orders being shouted out, she never faulted, in and out basically. Brewers has plenty of TVs placed at great angle points so you will never miss what's going on. Ample seating around the bar with tables located in the back. These guys also have a touch screen juke box with a pool table. Now lets just talk about the gaming part of it. Yes they do have the regular touch screens at the bar, the pool table where it was non stop, along with the "Pinball Wizards" . What they also have is a classic from the 80's in here. MISS PACMAN!! yes I know, that single joystick is all you need to reclaim your childhood again, but with a libation this time. What they now need and they do have the space for is a shuffle board table, they get this bad boy in here now we're talking. The bathroom was a little weird that had a chemical cleaning agent smell to it, well the men's room at least. Oh how I love that scented ammonia shot to the senses. I did enjoy the the fact that they had a wash sink / tub next to the urinal (sarcasm) . In all this is an OK spot to go if you want to get off the grid for the night, I haven't tried any of their bar fare , but everything else was OK. read more

You know how you read in a review that this is a friendly neighborhood spot? Well, this truly is and we both loved it. It's a fun divey spot with cheap beer and a great crowd. A pool table in the back and some serious arm wrestlers at the bar. I accidentally took a woman's seat and we jokingly decided to arm wrestle for it, only we really did end up arm wrestling and she was some serious competition! Beer was cheap and cold, served fast, and the shots were big. Parking is on the street and the bar can be a bit crowded but like I said everyone is friendly and just looking for a good time. We had a great time here! read more

Stopped in for the first time in search of a decent pinball machine. Really liked this place! Atmosphere was lively; jukebox was standard classic rock fare played at a reasonable level. (we never did hear what we played, though) The pinball machine turned out to be a very nice Theater of Magic! Also has a shooting machine and a pool table. We (over) ordered a variety of food: steak quessidias, oinion rings, chili fries. All good, with the steak Qs being a standout. Bartender was friendly, too. I thought the prices ran high for a local corner bar, but overall a great place. I'm definitely going back in the near future. Updated 7/14: The pinball machine is now a Williams Junk Yard in very good condition. read more

Driving down Haddon Ave, you can't help but notice the sign for Brewers Towne Tavern. Its big, its blue, and the westbound traffic pattern forces you to go in the lane closest to it! It's one if my favorite spots in the Westmont/Collingswood/Haddonfield area. Like Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the Irish Mile, PJ Whelihans, and Keg & Kitchen and are too crowded, too much money, too loud, and too inattentive. Brewers on the other hand is juuuust right. Now as my friends live in Collingswood, we usually walk and don't have to worry about parking. However, during rain, drizzling, extreme cold, regular cold, and snow, driving is the choice. Parking is only the street parking on Haddon Ave, which is tough during the day. Luckily, the PATCO and it's large parking lot is also right around the corner. Walking up the steps and through the door of Brewers puts you right at the bar. If you're with a small group, grab a seat at the bar and meet some new people. If you're in a larger group, walk past the pool tables and grab one of the tables in the back. The cook on duty is the one who usually takes your orders. You'll notice Brewers has all the essentials a dive bar needs - a TV (don't touch the remote!), two arcade machines (one is Pacman), a pinball machine, a jukebox, and a pool table. Drinks are not the cheapest around, but still very cheap, especially in the "hipster-ritzy" Haddon Ave Strip. I'm pretty sure I got some $2.50 PBRs last time, but I can't remember the other beer prices. Domestic bottled beers are $3.25 though, just how I like them! The last time we were here, I managed to pull my group out if the 1-hour wait we were stuck in for a table at the Pour House. My friends were hungry and irritable, but I told them of a fantastic Chicken Parmesan sandwich ($6.50) I had back in October, which somehow convinced them to head over to Brewers. When we got our table (big group), they ordered buffalo chicken wraps ($7.50), mozzarella sticks ($6.00), and a few other things that seemed to make them happy. The prices are literally half of what you'd pay for food at Keg & Kitchen too. Also despite other reviewers saying this, Brewers DOES accept credit cards at both the bar and table! So if you're looking for a chill place with cheap drinks and tasty cheap food, I recommend taking your cheap friends to Brewers Towne Tavern. read more

Brewers Towne Tavern - Chicken Parm Sandwich - Pubs Near Me - Westmont, New Jersey

I have visited Brewers 4 times and have enjoyed this neighborhood tavern very much. Brewers has a great selection of domestic macro brews and wonderful list of local craft beers. I have enjoyed the beef with provolone sandwich as well as the burgers and wings. Bar tenders are friendly and helpful. Servers are locals who get to know you. Great place to hang, have a couple of beers watch the game on the flat screens. Brewers tavern is what a local tavern should be. read more

I have to say I would def go back for bar food, however,NOT the nachos. Im not sure if they ran out of chips or if this was the norm but they cut soft shell taco wraps in half and fried them and then piled the nacho goodness on top.. except this was not good at all, the "chips" tasted like oil and grease and some where green so I am assuming they were spinach??. Not what I was looking for in nachos . All the other food looked good Bar is small so a seat may be hard to get on a busy night and it seems like a bar full of regulars so the welcome factor may be lost, so def go w a friend :) read more

Brewers Towne Tavern - Nachos - Pubs Near Me - Westmont, New Jersey

I went last night and left ASAP. THIS PLACE WAS PACKED!!! I am all for hanging with friends but this place had so many people it spilled on to the sidewalk. No one wore masks. You couldn't even reach the bar. This is an example of when you don't care for the rules and others suffer. Come on we are better than this!! read more

Great local bar outside from Philadelphia with drinks and great wings for a good price. Always a nice place to meet my friends and watch some sport events or have a great evening. The staff is always friendly, communicative and fast. read more

If you're looking for a local pub this is the spot. Good beer and great wings and food. Ordered Wings from them several times, always the traditional fried wings and great. Ordered from them yesterday and the wings were grilled and a bit burnt. Unsure if they changed the way they make their Wings going forward. Regardless, still good. read more

This is a local watering hole that I have definitely enjoyed drinking from. The crowd is very chill for the most part. I'm from the west coast where PBR is popular, mainly cause its cheap, guess what, its cheap on the east coast too, $2.25 a pint. Thursdays is the night to go, $3.25 for Sam Adams Boston Lager or Seasonal. Wings on Thursays, which are rediculously delicious and large are half off at $3.75. Will definitely be here more, lots of specials all the time. Great place to watch sports with a beer. read more

3.5 stars. I went in here last night with a buddy of mine. Its a short walk from the Westmont PATCO station. From the outside, it looks like any other neighborhood bar. On the inside they have a square bar and restaurant seating in the back. Whats nice about the restaurant seating in the back is that they have nice sized flat screens on either side, so whether you are facing towards the entrance or away from the entrance you still can watch the TV, which would be useful during sports games. I ordered a Long Trail Stout, which evidently is a Coffee stout and a Double Cheeseburger with bacon. The beer was excellent and the waitress delivered it pretty fast. The burger came out just like I ordered it, medium. It was tasty and very thick. I had to stretch to fit it in my piehole. The fries that accompanied it were pretty decent and fairly crispy. Service was good. The atmosphere was very relaxed. They had Allman Brothers playing most of the time we were there, which was nice because I haven't listened to them in a while. I'll have to check out the jukebox and see what else they have when I come back. Next time I"l try some of the other beers from their long list. Very nice spot to hang out. read more

Went here to meet up with some friends. Came in, it was lively, crowd seemed kinda young, got a divey vibe from the place. Sat down with my friends, who had been drinking there for awhile, sat for 15 minutes next to my friends, not once did the bar tender acknowledge I was there. 10 more minutes go by, and my friends are like "dude, you still haven't been served? What's going on?". My one friend brings it to my attention, that I'm the only colored person in the bar. I'm not one to play the "race card" but it quickly became evident that this variable could have been the reason I wasn't being served. My friends(who are all white) test this hypothesis. They finish their beers, sure enough, the bar tender comes right over, takes there order, still doesn't acknowledge my presence. At that point, my one friend orders a beer for me, I lean over and hand the bartender( typical generation - Xer with an ex-cop appearance) my card, he glares at me, and I glared right back and told him firmly "open, and close it". My friends notice this interaction, and suggest we leave, so as to not cause any trouble, we leave and go to the Irish Mile. It's a shame, because the bar itself is nice and is in a sweet location. But hey, if my money is not good enough for them, there are plenty of other bars where it is. read more

I love this place. I've been coming here for years. Awesome wings and Thursdays is 50 cent wings night. I love the hot garlic and Chipotle honey wings. I absolutely love the soup. Soups are freshly made and there's a different one every week. Favorite soups: Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Noodle, & Cream of Broccoli. Great Staff, and friendly people. If you want a nice low key place to hang or eat, I recommend Brewers! read more

I really liked this place! Wings were decent, food portions were large, bartenders were friendly enough. Beer prices are VERY good - $4 for a Guinness, Hoegaarden... I enjoyed myself and if you like an easy place to hang out and watch the game, you will, too! read more

Why have I waited this long to go to Brewer's??? We went here Friday, and it's just a cool, laid back bar. The bartenders were really nice and helpful, you were NEVER with an empty glass, and while their beer list isn't great, I'm happy any time I can get a $4 Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. We got 10 wings, hot, and they were great...not the best I've had around here, as Chris from Forno described them, but definitely top three. The sauce was spicy and tangy, they were perfectly fried with the right amount of batter, and they were meaty. Too often you get tiny little wings, but these were a really good size. I got a cheesesteak with sauteed broccoli rabe and provolone, and it was delicious. Meghan C got a really good chicken quesodilla, which I stole a few bites of, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. Brewers, please keep doing an awesome job, and we'll definitely be back! read more

An odd experience. I'd not been there in years but I thought it might be nice to go back; it wasn't. After being ignored (not given service) for 50 minutes (yes 50!) I left. Perhaps I did not fit in with the mostly younger crowd. I don't know. Anyway, I'll never know as I will not be returning. read more

Love this place. Great drinks, great prices even better food! Friendly and swift service.

An awesome little pub with good selection of beer, from craft beer to PBR on draft. Our group loved the wings, burgers, Cuban sandwich, etc. tasty all around. We will be back soon. read more

Stopped in this place last night to play some pool and grab a beer. What a fun little dive bar! The pool table was small, but it was situated in the space perfectly. There was enough room to walk around and get the shot without jamming the pool stick into the wall. Not many bars, even the higher-end ones, have a good pool space - kudos! Drink-wise I went with the Coney Island Hard Root beer. It was very sweet but I enjoyed it. One of the patrons told me that the "Not your Father's Root beer" was better, and he actually bought one so I could try it! It seems like the kind of place where most of the people are regulars, and I have come to find that in those cases the service can either be a hit or miss. In this case it was a hit! There was a huge party of people in the back room watching the Phillies, so I wasn't able to try the wings because the kitchen was backed up, but they smelled really good! I can't wait to come back, play some pool and try the food. read more

Brewers is INCREDIBLE. This has quickly become our new favorite dive bar. I agree with Christopher R., this place exceeded my expectations completely!!!! The patrons are awesome - everyone is jovial and friendly. They have a jukebox, pinball machine, video games, and more. The bartenders are personable (ask Katie to make you her new drink - Summer Blue) and you feel as though they're old family friends. The drinks are well priced and apparently the food is delicious. I can't wait it try it. Yum. I can't wait to go back again! You're always guaranteed a good time here. Goooo Brewers. read more

So this review is based solely on the bar experience and not food. This is a bar that is one of the last neighborhood bars. Depending on the night, it can either be dead or jumping... think home alone when he throws the fake party and then the next morning, no one in sight lol. Great selection of beers, friendly enough bartenders, and overall just a great decent place to down some suds. Do remember it's cash only read more

went to this bar for the first time ever last night and boy was my first impression absolutely a shit show. it was packed from st pattys bar crawl which is totally fine, but once I finally got a bartenders attention, i asked for 3 tequila pineapples (easy drink with ice and 2 ingredients). this old head bartender spills one of the drinks while making the 3, which really was no big deal. But then the turn happens when he then GRABS the ice on the bar that fell out with his DIRTY HANDS and puts it back in the same cup. then proceeds to top off the ice he just put back in my cup with new ice and makes the drink again WITHOUT NEW ICE. so me being absolutely repulsed asked for that ONE to be remade and this rude ass acts like I'm making a big deal and refuses to remake it because "he's too busy for that." HUHHHH??? your grimey ass hands touched what I'm about to drink, so yeah i want a god damn new one. I was actually excited to try this place out since it seemed like a new hot spot for people in their 20's, but i was left disgusted and felt like it was like a new jays elbow room - nasty asf read more

I am a huge fan of a good dive bar but this place just didn't do it for me. Admittedly, I was there at an odd hour of the day on a weekday but the vibe in here wouldn't have me running back - it just wasn't welcoming. We walked in the door and everyone in the place turned to look at us, not in that "who is this?" kind of way but more like "what the hell are you doing here?" It was me and 2 friends stopping for a drink before hoping the train home. The place is definitely convenient to the PATCO - earning a star for that alone. The bartender was okay but the bar wasn't stocked with even some of the most basic of items - not sure how you don't have Captain Morgan. She seemed bored (ok, I would be too with only 6 customers there) but seemed put off by us trying to make small talk with her. Ended up leaving after 1 drink and moved along down the street to continue our revelry in a brighter and more friendly environment. read more

Brewers used to be my go to bar, but a move across town has made it a much further walk. When the weather's nice and we're not feeling Fischers or Cork or Pourhouse, we'll trek over here. The beer list is surprising good and has gotten better. Chicken fingers are always good and come with fries. It can get a little tight in the bar area at night so if you come with a group, try to snag one of the back tables. read more

Best dive bar in S. Jersey! This is my favorite local dive bar. Please don't take the term dive bar as an insult. This place has the best gourmet burgers around and has some surprisingly upscale salads as well. The food prices cannot be beat and they have a wide selection of beers on tap. Why do I call this a dive bar? Well, you certainly do not need to get dressed up to impress anyone here. It is totally unpretentious albeit being very close to Haddonfield. The bar is kind of dark and seedy but with a bit of charm. The bartenders, waitstaff and cook are all super friendly and the best mix of music is always playing from the jukebox. read more

Love this place! Outdoor patio just opened and they are killing it! TV outside for the games too!
