This is an American pub in Queens (mostly for locals) with the benefits of a good selection on the menu. The clams were the best part of the meal and the popcorn shrimp was nice. I had their famous blackened steak (medium rare) which was good but I would not order it again. It looks burnt and we eat with our eyes first but the sizzling pan was a nice touch. They forgot the mushrooms and fried onions I ordered on top but did not charge for them. The steak comes with a house salad and a side (I chose mashed potatoes which were good). My friend had a colby jack burger. We loved the fries but his medium well looked like a hockey puck and came on a sandwich roll not a burger bun?! More on him as I think medium rare is the only way. He tried my steak and thought it was good too. I had a blue moon. They refilled our waters once but it took a bit long as there was not an insane amount of customers eating at lunch, just a few tables and a full bar of beer drinkers. I parked my car 2 blocks away on the street. read more

Food was fantastic. Well cooked, great flavor. Fries were crispy. Great pub food for sure. Service was fantastic. Friendly servers. Ambiance was typical for a Saturday night. They were able to sit us in the dining room which is great. Good volume allows for conversation. read more

Fillmore's Tavern - Cleveland Chicken Sandwich - Pubs Near Me - Flushing, New York

Fillmore's has been around for some quiet time & is a staple bar in the area. I came here to watch the Yankees game with a friend of mine & albeit the Yankees lost (without fail might I add), the atmosphere & staff were great. The drinks were strong & the food wasn't bad either- your standard bar food. I'd go back to catch a game if I was in the area. read more

Stopped in here recently and I've got to say, this place really impressed me. The foods top-notch fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can tell they don't cut corners. I tried a few different things off the menu and everything hit the mark. The burgers were juicy, the wings were perfectly crisp, and the sides were all done right.The vibe here is great too relaxed, friendly, and feels like a real neighborhood spot. The staff was on point the whole time, super attentive even though the place was busy. You just get that feeling that people here actually care about what they're doing. Definitely one of those spots you end up coming back to -- whether it's for a casual dinner, catching a game, or just grabbing a beer with friends. Solid food, good people, good atmosphere. Highly recommend it. read more

Fillmore tavern has been a neighborhood joint for years and it looks like it. I had heard the burger is the thing to order from here. I went with it. The burger was cooked to my liking and had decent flavor. Wouldn't say it was anything too special. They did have good cole slaw. It is an old school tavern and feels like you are stepping into the past when eating here. Quiet during weekday lunch but we enjoyed it. read more

1st time here after a few recommendations, specifically hyping the wings, French onion soup and the main burger on the menu, The Fillmore. Old pub/tavern vibes, nice crowd. When I walked in, I saw a plate of the baked clams and immediately smelled the aroma. Ordered a plate and it was just okay. The breading had a sweet flavor to it, so it threw me off a bit. I like the fact that they chop the clams, not many places bother. Also had the mozzarella and tomato crostini with a side of balsamic. The bread for the crostini was delicious and the balsamic tasted almost homemade but was delicious. The French onion soup was just okay. I don't know if it's because we got all of our appetizers and the soup at the same time but the cheese for the soup wasn't very melted, in fact there was no broil color from the oven, almost like they barely had it in there to bake the cheese. Broth was tasty but nothing spectacular. Ordered The Fillmore burger with Cheddar cheese. I could be wrong, but I thought I read on the menu under burgers that all the burgers come on a brioche bun. Apparently the Fillmore does not and comes on hoagie bread. My burger was overcooked, asked for medium and it was dry. My friend's cowboy burger was overcooked, asked for medium got well done and my friend was undecided what to order and the waitress suggested the steak tips sandwich, said "it's the most popular". My friend and I couldn't even chew the steak from her sandwich, it was also so overcooked when she asked for medium, came well done and CHEWY. Didn't even bother to take a pic of my burger. The wings looked pretty good but didn't get to try. Might return to give another chance if I'm in the area. read more

Recently moved to the neighborhood and this place has great food. I was going to get a bunch of apps at Applebees one night but decided come here instead. They have fresh food not frozen like Applebee's and it is a local spot. I much prefer supporting local than international corporations. Everything is really good, steak, burgers, pretzel, wings, onion rings, meatloaf, and corned beef. read more

Amazing food, drinks, and staff. Unsuspecting local bar that blends in with the neighborhood. Shoutout Donna, Raven, and Connor.

This is a great neighborhood tavern. The wings are always good and the daily specials always offer something appealing and appetizing. The service is always warm and friendly. They make everyone feel like a welcomed regular. Great for a quick lunch or a nice gathering. read more

a place where all the local drunkards sit at the bar and don't move from their seats. Not a place to bring children. Very loud and the food isn't up to par. Totally a waste of good money!! I walked out and ended up at Donovan's in Woodside. What a great place, The burgers were spectacular. Don't waste your money. read more

I have lived in the area for 40 years. I have never been to Fillmore's until a chap I know told me the tale of one of the oldest bars in Queens. I was hooked and wanted more. Great. Place. read more

Awesomely delicious you can't beat it. It's the best in the area by far. Thanks for your good service Amen

Great local bar. Feels like cheers in here. I definitely recommend the wings. Beer was cold a fresh.

Great, local authentic and small family owned business. Came here on a Saturday night and the place was pretty busy, but the service was on point. We started out with the stuffed mushrooms which were delicious and juicy, it was a delight that it was stuff with crab meat. For our entrées, we opted for two burgers and the grilled fish sandwich which included a large piece of a tuna steak. It was tasty and served with a generous portion of steak cut french fries. Prices are reasonable. You can't go wrong when you're looking for a small local spot for dinner or to watch a game at the bar with a nice beer and friends. Check it out if you're in the area. read more

Loved it and will definitely go back again. This should be much more famous. Great food and atmosphere

I can't believe this place is down the block from my house and I didn't know. Granted I just moved to the neighborhood, but I can see this becoming a favorite spot. The service was great( maybe the server name was crystal , I'm really bad with names ) ! Food could be at a 3 but if service is great that bumps it up to a 4 . In this case , service was great and food was amazing. Hit the spot. Next time I go I'll repost with pictures ... I was too hungry to snap pictures. read more

What a shame! We've visited Fillmore's often with great service and even better food; tonight 's experience undid the great experience we had had...we arrived for a late dinner a little before 9 pm. I will blame it on the young lady who served us "having a bad day" although there should be no such thing in the hospitality business...after taking our order it took 45 minutes to get our entres - a burger and I had the specials meal of grilled pork shop which came with a salad. Neither one of us finished meals... This young lady didn't come back to our table once to give any excuse or just say "sorry" for the delay...when we had finished packing our leftovers, I mistakenly (she corrected me without hesitation) thought dessert was included with my meal and asked her for a scoop of ice cream. We never complain, but this young woman's attitude when I gave her the bill with payment and said, you know when you keep a customer waiting over half an hour and one asks for ice cream - customer service goes a long ways. She looked at me with disdain, again never even saying "sorry", quite the contrary after saying "she didn't hear me asking for the ice cream - I must have said it too low", her last comeback was, "on Saturdays when you order dinner it takes half an hour to get your meal after the appetizers" (mind you, my appetizer was a Caesar salad, my hubby had none. We're not the types to expect groveling - the young ma who was doing an excellent job cleaning up & setting tables made small talk with us as well as the other young waitress, whom we have received excellent service from; this young woman's attitude and demeanor was a detriment to this great neighborhood tavern! Please let her know a little bit of lightheartedness goes a long ways with customers! read more

I am new to Filmore's Tavern but I have visited about six times and I am on the road to making it a regular in my books. The atmosphere that includes the employees , the regular crowd and the decoration makes you feel right at home with how a tavern / pub should. They have three sections. A bar area with booth seating, the restaurant area and even a outdoor section I have not experienced yet because it is winter time. Every one that I have met from Courtney, to Donna , to Jenn have made the experience amazing. I recommend this place for a quick bite to eat, a couple of quick drinks after work or a Sunday funday of marathon drinking. Let me not forget about the kitchen and the menu! I haven't had a average meal there , everything has made me nod with appreciation. The lobster bisque.... If it is on the specials menu... get there! Above all this.... They have daily specials !!!! read more

It's a great place to have a meal, good food and service. It's a hidden gem. Great neighbourhood spot.

Fillmore's is my local tavern. They've got food, drinks, and usually a good crowd of people, including young professionals, old-timers, and regular folk. It's a nice scene. The sandwiches are a safe bet, filling and pleasing to the mouth. Don't skip the appetizers, though: onion ring tower (and accompanying sauces) should be given consideration. Mozzarella sticks are tasty, but overpriced for just six sticks. Meanwhile, the buffalo wings are a low-key stunner. Last night I split a 20 piece order with a couple of friends, and we had a delicious experience. They hit the table steaming hot, crispy, and super tasty. The sauce is good, could be spicier, no complaints. Pay cash, leave a big tip, come back again. Fillmore's is a staple of the neighborhood and a personal favorite of mine. read more

I consider myself a burger connoisseur. That being said, this place has arguably the best burgers in Queens, NY. Better than Donovan's, God bless that Woodside staple. Better than Neptune's. Better than your OG Greek diner. Filmore's burgers are hand packed, perfectly cooked (ask for medium rare to retain those juices), draped with the perfect amount of cheese on a the establishment's quintessential long roll. I pair mine with a bit of Mayo and BBQ sauce in each bite. This is the burger I think of when I think about the movie "The Menu." The service is personal, and the mood is one of old fashioned Queens camaraderie that is rapidly disappearing in this city. So come here, treat people well, and eat to your heart's content. This is burger heaven in the world's greatest borough. And I didn't even get to mention the wings. read more

Good 'old Fillmore's. This is your quintessential local neighborhood pub that your parents went to, that you now go to, and if you stay in the neighborhood long enough your kids will probably go to. When all the shops close at 8pm and there's nothing to do, there is Fillmore's with drinks, great food, and good times. Some of my favorites over the years - Fillmore's baked clams, beer battered onion rings, blackened steak, french onion soup, Salmon with horseradish sauce. Can't go wrong with almost anything on the menu - you're getting a good meal. Service is always great. If you happen to stumble upon this bar nestled between the neighborhood houses, give them a try. read more

My wife and I visit NYC from Texas pretty often and we like to visit different dive bars. The location, atmosphere, and drink prices, were the best we've had so far. We visited Thursday evening while with for a red eye flight Thursday night. We had dinner, several drinks, and a great time. For dinner we had a blackened chicken sandwich which was fair. The bartender and locals were very inviting and we'll be back next time we visit the city. read more

When we walked in, we noticed we were the only black people. Nobody seated us but we grabbed seats right at the bar. Everyone there seemed to be regulars. Everyone knew each other. Everyone sat themselves. The bartenders spoke to their regulars. We were eventually greeted. We were offered food from their "buffet" which consisted of zucchini sticks and French fries but we didn't want any. The bartender had cookies from Lulu's which she shared with her regulars but didn't offer us any. Not a big deal but could have offered and let us say no rather then offering everyone around us except us. The food was nice and fresh. We got the beer battered onion rings and fries and 20 piece wings. The flavors were hot, garlic parm, honey bbq, and their signature sauce which is like a hot and spicy sauce. We got the honey bbq and the signature sauce. Both were good. Despite the food being good, I wouldn't go back only because I felt out of place. Oh yea, they also have a blackjack machine and a slot machine and multiple TVs. They have daily specials and happy hour. read more

This place is such a neighborhood place, like it is the only business in the entire area since it is located in a completely residential part. You will only really know of it if you were told about it or if you live in the area, if you live outside the area, driving is a basically a must. It's essentially a bar that happens to have very solid food and it turns out this place has been open over a 100 years but the place has been renovated so it looks more modern, the place is a pretty awesome place to hangout. The food: Stuffed Mushrooms- Fresh mushrooms stuffed with crabmeat, herbs, spices and breading. The mushrooms were great, I really enjoyed the stuffing and the mushrooms were huge. They packed them well with the stuffing but I did wish the mushrooms were cooked a tad more or if they served a slightly smaller mushroom since I like my mushrooms to be cooked a tad more. Regardless, the mushrooms are a must order, I really enjoyed them. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=i1JxF8DY4cdrEOd8GP6M-A&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Wings- The wings were good, it's a solid buffalo wing, the flavors were nice and the heat was manageable. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=hTfRlePLcSXE56NmRJhoNw&userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA Lobster Bisque- It was a special of the day and I thought the lobster bisque was great, it had nice flavor and a nice creaminess to it. I also really liked it with the really good hero bread that you can ask for. Blackened Angus Steak- 13 spices rubbed on Angus sirloin, pan-fried and served on a sizzling platter. I really enjoyed the steak, it was cooked to a perfect med rare, I also thought the blackening of the spices added so much flavor. The steak was cooked perfectly, the flavors were spot on and the steak was really tender and juicy. Highly recommend. Angus Burger- Certified black Angus beef hand formed, club roll, lettuce and tomato. The burger was kinda a surprise since it was served on a club roll, it was kinda like a burger hero, if you will. I really enjoyed the burger which I added American cheese, onions and mushrooms. The bread was nice and crusty and the burger patty had a nice crust which was great for some nice texture. The burger was surprisingly not messy to eat at all, kudos to the construction of the burger. Sweet Potato Fries- The sweet potato fries were very unusually cut but who cares since they were awesome! They had the perfect crunch and really good flavor. The sweet potatoes fries should be ordered. Angus Meatloaf- Angus beef and warm gravy. This was just OK. The meatloaf was cut into 3 thin slices, the flavor was good but not sure if I would get this again since it really wasn't all that exciting. The asparagus spears were great though, nice thin spears that were cooked well. read more
