Pretty good overall!…read more Considerably big space for Philly. They had an upstairs too but I am not sure why it wasn't open during majority of the night. When the big crowd from the conference left they opened the upstairs. The Mac and cheese is SO GOOD. Very creamy and rich, the bread crumbs were an amazing surprise edition. This fatty finished it before the beer came. Lots of beer choices. I took off a start be size they were under staffed. So we were just waiting around for the check and the waitress kept forgetting what we asked for. Honestly, not her fault. There were like ~100 people and only 3 employees that I saw. So no designated waiter for tables. These poor 3 employees were the bartenders and the table waiters.

With about 25 different types of pumpkin beers how could you go wrong…read more We arrived just before the first pitch of the Phillies game and the place was hopping (no pun intended). They had the side street blocked off with tables and a tv hung on the wall for all to watch. My wife and I entered and of course she had to go to the bathroom so I got in the beer line. She came immediately back and said the bathroom wait was longer than the beer line. I had never been upstairs so I suggested that she try for a bathroom there. Up she goes only to find out that the bathrooms were only downstairs but she did see that the beer line was shorter. We proceed upstairs and snag a seat at the bar. How the bartender was still cordial after what the day must have been to that point I don't know. Had a few different beers and was in heaven. Didn't try any of the pumpkin themed food but the beer was awesome. Can't wait until next year's edition!

Came here for an early birthday lunch today. I was generally unimpressed. I had a lemonade & a…read moreturkey burger and my coworker had the Tuna burger. Lemonade was bland. Turkey burger: The patty itself was semi moist but lacking any real flavor and they added 1 piece of a portabella mushroom (what was the point) and some onions. The bun was some type of wheat and unremarkable. The sweet potato fries were kickass. I could of eaten a whole plate of those. The tuna burger was disgusting according to my coworker and she said they put so much wasabi on it that it was almost inedible. I"m really only giving it two stars for the fries and the location because its good for people watching and it's shady. Though the bar chairs are uncomfortable, especially if you have short legs like I do. Total bill came to $40 plus tip.

I highly recommend the spicy chicken nachos. One of the best nachos plates I have ever had. If you try at least 51 different beers (the options are ever-changing, and they offer bottles/cans on top of the drafts), you can join The Connoisseur Club and get your name up on their wall of fame. Bonus points for good vibes and kind staff.

If you're not a beer drinker you may be less enthralled with the place. For me it was just right for a casual meeting and catch up.

My experience wasn't super here but I had high expectations after having some food and drinks the…read moreprevious night at the Monkey Thief down the street. Started off with the bartender giving me the stink eye and some lip about asking to sample their many micro-brews - I asked for one sample, it wasn't very good. The bartender's negative attitude made me uncomfortable asking for a second sample. Despite my trepidation and because they had as many as 19 different beers on tap, I asked for a second sample, which caused the bartender to frown at me and 'cut me off at 2.' I responded as positively as I could, accepted the second sample which I also did not enjoy, and took a random shot at a pint of a third beer which also wasn't great. Food was meh. As I now see has been noted in another review, the fried pickles had too much dough and way, way too much grease in them, which likely was the cause of me visiting the toilet a bunch in the morning. The pretzel was a hot pretzel, I don't agree with their choice of mustard as whole grain mustard can be difficult to spread on a hot pretzel but hey that's me. I understand that on Saturday nights people like to cut loose, but no one seemed to ask the women literally screaming with laughter to keep it down at the party in the corner, so this place gets low marks for very loud customers. I mean really there has to be a line somewhere and this was over it. The other bartender was almost apologetically polite when I asked for the check, kind of a good-cop/bad-cop thing going on there. If I wanted that experience I'd get arrested not visit a local bar. You only have one chance at a first impression.

Any old-timers out there remember when this was The Nutley Pub? (As one Yelper wrote, "Not the…read moreclassiest bar but..." - which perfectly summed up the last place.) Now going strong for well over a decade (?!) - Cowan's is classy and cool and leans into its strengths. Easily the hippest and most-happening spot in Nutley (and the surrounding towns) for the 'mature crowd' that's probably more interested in mash and hops and wort than getting hammered and making bad decisions at last call. The (ever rotating) beers on tap are stellar. The selection of bottles (of the harder stuff) on the picturesque back bar are eye-catching (even if I never heard of half of them). (After a few visits I still haven't tried the food. One of these days I'll get around to that, I promise.) Recommended, for sure.
