Fowler House Cafe has a dining room which is a bit quieter and their bar side. The waitress there was friendly, quick and tentative. This is your typical American bar restaurant. The menu was fairly extensive, and portion was big. Food: Margarita pizza: Very thin crust pizza. Crispy bottom and loaded with fresh toppings. There was a cheese pull. Prime rib: this was their special of the day. The prime rib was cooked medium rare, very tender. The au jus was salty and flavorful. Enough for two meals. Carrots were sweet--some were soft and some were still hard. Seafood Fra Diavolo: Had ordered this dish in many Italian restaurants around Boston and I could never taste the spice. This has a good kick to the spice! Perfect! Overall: Food was good and standard. None really wowed me. I would come here again though. read more

Great pizza and awesome atmosphere. Definitely a local place but honestly I liked that part of it

Great ambiance, appears to be a local hangout. Service was erratic . I had a reuben sandwich...It lacked sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing . I was with a french fry lover and they were disappointed . read more

The food there is outstanding it's always pack the staff is friendly you have to go there French dip is delicious

Best pizza in all the land !! You never meet a stranger here. A good, hometown place. The bartenders were friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend! read more

Food was great! Tried several different pizzas taking advantage of the buy 3 get 1 free cheese pizza which satisfied my pregnant sister in law's craving for almost everything and allowed for leftovers. Though the one pizza that was completely gone immediately was not a menu item but was accommodated and very tasty! BBQ chicken and bacon pizza-ask for it, you won't regret it. read more

came here on a friday night to get dinner with friends, discovered a bunch of mice running about the dinning room. actually felt crazy becuase nobody was acknowledging the mice, our server reacted like it was no big deal and just said sorry with a shrug. would've been nice if they could have been more sympathetic about the mice, do not recommend read more

I had an absolutely horrible experience at the Fowler house. Me and my friends came to have dinner there and we ordered appetizers. We got the sampler platter and I will say the potatoes were pretty cold. The chicken tenders were okay, but otherwise it was very mediocre. It felt like they took it out of the freezer and just warmed it up in the microwave. After we ordered our main dishes I noticed something in the corner of my eye. There was a family of mice not only on the floor 10 ft across from us but also they were parading across the seats. We brought this to our waitresses attention, and she simply said we've been having problems for a while due to construction. No apology or sense of "this is gross". I left with only paying for the appetizer. Safe to say I would not come again. read more

My family has eating here since its original opening. Now, since I moved 8yrs ago I get to come back once a year for holidays. Fowler is slowly dropping standards and values in hospitality and service over the years. This was a new low for the neighborhood friendly bar room. I sat there for 10mins and no one said anything to me. Your staff saw me and a food runner walked by me twice but nothing. There was one bartender worried about service bar and her 5 regulars at the opposite end of me. I hope they tipped her well. Manager could have put an extra bartender on to help but maybe that wasn't possible for a Friday after Christmas. Don't worry Fowler, the chap next to me apologized for you and said 'it's not usually like this...' unfortunately for me it was like this and I'll be back next year...hopefully I'll get to adjust my score to 5 stars. Your food, drink, and environment are great...let me experience all of it and not leave frustrated and hungry. read more

Great vibes. Great service. Great wings. Great bar pizza. I wish they'd let me pay rent so I can just live here.

Nice place to relax, great staff food was good and on time. I tried the steak tips they were so delicious I thought I cooked them

Ohh my broken heart! I used to frequent this establishment constantly and it was one of my favorite places in Quincy. I don't live as close anymore and came here recently for the first time in a long time. I'm sad to say I think the food has gone downhill significantly from what I remember... My husband and I came here on a Tuesday night as they advertised trivia and it sounded like fun. Surprisingly, the place was packed for a weeknight. We decided to order two entrees to share - the buffalo chicken sub and Philly cheese steak quesadilla. Unfortunately, both were terrible choices! The menu stated the buffalo chicken sub came with lettuce, tomato and blue cheese. However, when it arrived there was no lettuce or tomato or buffalo sauce or anything on the actual sub. It was just plain fried chicken placed in a dry sub roll with the buffalo sauce and blue cheese on the side. No mayo or condiments on the bread or chicken. Dry as a bone. What on earth?! The quesadilla provided no relief either as it was super greasy and flavorless. Tasted like there was barely any cheese added and also felt like it needed a sauce. We were drowning the quesadilla in the given sour cream & salsa but seems like that made it worse. We gave up and focused on the sub. Fortunately for us, the fries were just as delicious as I remember! Crispy and well seasoned on the outside, hot & soft on the inside. If I come back again, it will surely be just for drinks and trivia. read more

Buffalo Chicken tenders and pizza were really good! Only complaint was the hot honey was too sweet on the pep pizza. Waitress was very attentive. Loud popping bar on a weekend night. read more

Excellent food and service great place to catch a game with your friends seven days a week

Service is amazing! The front hostess who is blonde, Casey, she's a bit younger but is so helpful! She's very efficient at her job and quicker than the servers to get what we need. As well as amazing food to top off the service!!! read more

Yesterday I called Fowler House to make a reservation for last night. I was told they don't take reservations on the weekend but it wouldn't be a problem just showing up at 6:15 there would be plenty of room. I arrived at 6:15 the restaurant was crowded and the receptonist asked if I had a reservation. Of course the answer was no because they didn't take reservations on the weekend and that the wait would be between 30 minutes and 90 minutes. I don't know what the reservation policy is and I'm very reluctant to go back. What is the policy and will they inform the staff what the policy is supposed to be and post it on the website? read more

This place since COVID has gone down hill. They are soooo preoccupied with COVID hysteria it's insane. They made our visit very unpleasant even though the food was ok. Even had barkeep yelling at people to mask up. Total joke. I have been to many establishments and this is the 1st to treat its customers like lil children. We will NEVER go back. read more

I felt like I shouldn't have walked in and sat down this afternoon. This is the second time and the last. I apologize to the bartender who obviously didn't want me there and she had to go out of her way to wait on me. It must have been terrible for her considering I'm low maintenance, polite and tip well, the horror, the HORROR. If you are not a lifelong Quincy townie, an off duty cop, retired cop or a middle aged man who used to play football at Quincy high you are going to be treated and looked at like you don't belong here. The food isn't going to knock your socks off by any means so you aren't missing a thing by skipping this place. Humans are wacky, ignorant, self centered asses. Like The Beach Boys once said, I'm not made for these times. Btw, I hate The Beach Boys. read more

Dry nice staff. Large portions. Couldn't finish the teriyaki steak tips because we filled up on the Buffalo chicken dip.

We have been visiting family in Quincy for over 10 years and Fowler House is one of our favorites. There's been a lot of nit picking since the pandemic but these are hard times for restaurants. They are doing their best under hard conditions and it's easy to understand. Funny thing is that it's packed on weekends with a wait for a table so they must be doing things right. This is what's right.....large portion of great food. Steak tips and Seafood Pasta Bake are my favorites. My grandkids love everything and that's saying a lot. Fowler House Cafe is a classic in an era of chain restaurants that we should support! read more

As a life long Q resident I have been to and gotten take out from Fowler many times. Tonight was a bit of a fail. We got two things for take out. 1) Turkey club and 2) steak tips. The Turkey club did not have bacon?!?! That kind of ruins the whole allure of a Turkey club. To me a Turkey club ALWAYS has bacon. The manu lists it with bacon. Some may think this is minor...but it kind of makes a difference Secondly I ordered steak tips (bbq) medium rare with baked potato with extra butter and extra sour cream. The positive is that tips still had pink in them. Still. The negative: there was no butter and no sour cream (even though I was very specific on extra for both)...which while disappointing didn't make a difference because the baked potato was brown inside and had a smell so it had to be thrown away. The veg of the day were carrots that were honestly having trouble holding form because they were sooooo mushy. Additionally because the carrots Im guessing were so waterlogged the entire container was sitting in a puddle of brown water from the water mixing with the BBQ sauce. Threw the carrots away too. Overall VERY disappointing meal tonight. read more

My second visit and last! I asked the bartender to make me a drink and when it was served, I took my first sip and immediately realized it was not made correctly. When the bartender came over, I had politely asked how she made this drink so I could better assist with making it the proper way so I could enjoy, she abruptly stated "she did not know how she made it" and then said, "this is how we make this drink here." Both myself and company I sat with at the bar was taken aback by her short and unprofessional response and quickly packed up and left. several patrons were lost this day by this business due to this Bartender's disposition. I will not return and would not recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable place to enjoy a drink. It only takes 1 bad attitude or unprofessional response to lose meaningful business... Do Better Fowler House! read more

Came here on a Saturday around 4pm. The bar side was very full and we sat in the dining area. Food: We got a few appetizers which all were great. The chicken fingers were perfectly done and came with delicious honey mustard. The fried pickles were DELICIOUS! They had a different coating than how I normally get them and i loved the way it was done here.You had the juicy taste of the pickle but mixed with the crunch of the golden coating. They came with a chipotle dipping sauce which paired perfectly. Lastly we had the steak and cheese egg rolls which had a perfect amount of steak to cheese ratio. There were also what seemed to taste like caramelized onions in them which was a nice flavor twist. Service: Poor. Our waitress did not come back to the table to refill a drink and we finally had to get her attention as she walked by, then again we had to ask a different server to get ours. read more

Best place to go in Quincy! Pizza is the best, service is prompt and courteous! It's a great neighborhood bar/restaurant.

the portions they gave us were huge. the linguine in the bolognese was al dente for me. but the meat sauce was good. they gave us a lot in the platter, we were kind of surprised. they gave us sausage, eggplant, chicken parm, and a meatball- all were good. we sat in the dining room instead, the other room was a bit crowd for us. just wished that the waitress check in with us once in a while. since the dining room's booths had long walls blocking our view, we couldnt flag anyone down and we didnt want to walk around without a mask on. read more

I came here a few weeks back and have been debating whether or not to leave a review. It's still bothering me so here I am. The man at the front was rude then I was asked to pick my own table which always throws me off. I was there for half an hour before I just got up and left because not once in that half an hour did I meet my waitress. No one said anything to me at all after I was seated. (Granted I picked a low traffic area with minimal people because I'm an introvert so I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.) But come on...thirty whole minutes without one person coming to my table is just absurd. read more

I've lived in the area for 3 years and was looking for a new spot. Ordered the Salmon, Steak Tips, and the NY Strip and they were definitely all atleast a 9.5/10. The NY Strip is definitely one of the best in the area. The salmon did not need a knife and was so soft and cooked to perfection! They were friendly when picking up which was a + Def ordering again read more

It a neighbor hood bar with tons ofTV's at the bar and nice food ! the bartenders are very nice . It I great spot to watch the game.

This place is absolutely disgusting. Now I do have to be fair, the Ruben sandwich here is delicious. Other than that this place needs to be shut down. It's your typical hole in the wall bar type of quality food. Chewy steak, not seasoned rice and plain veggies. My food tasted like it was cooked by an 80 year old man who's vision and taste we're gone. Absolutely dreadful. Shut this place down read more

My review is in need of an update. I like to come here for a quick bite to eat and wash the food down with plenty of Miller Light ($3 for 20 oz.). I like to get the cheese burger (always good but better if the cooks cook it the way I ask), also the cheeseburger club is amazing, and how can I forget their pizzas. The pizza is not the best but its cheap and you really could not ask for a better pie if you are there to get down to business downing some cheap beer. However I tend to avoid this place after sundown as I do not fit into the social scene since I did not go to high school in the South Shore. Lots of townies who really don't care to expand their social circles beyond high school. read more

Fowler House Cafe - Prime Rib Sandwich. Served until 5pm. - American Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

My little brother and I made a game of out of anything. We played unorganized street hockey with homemade chicken wire nets and discarded sofa cushion goalie pads. We taped up baseballs when the cover came off, played tackle football on cement with just a dusting of snow, stickball and hoop in the dark. When we got older, we got into organized sports. I've had a lot of coaches. Coached a few games myself. Jumpin Jimmy Devlin would direct me during rallies when we were down and needed a spark. He would yell out to third base. " Joey-Love... Let's get 'em going out there ". I was and still am quite good at heckling. My favorite coach was John Fowler. He was responsible for getting me to play in games like I did in practice. I thought of him today when I went to the Fowler House in Quincy, on Hancock st. It's pub food kicked up a bit. I went with the prime Rib Sandwich Au Jus. It was thinly sliced with cheese on crusty bread. It was the au jus that made it. Pan drippings and love makes it irresistible. I remember Mr Sullivan yelling at us early on Saturday Mornings.... " Sleep Nights" and Jumpin yelling " Hum you Dukies ". My line was " Everything happens with two ". read more

So have been ordering take out and coming here for a long time. Tonight took the girlfriend and our boys, 2.5 and 3.5 for dinner. It wasn't busy but we sat outside and for about 20 minutes no one approached us. A table that sat after us actually was having there order taken when we ended up walking out. No one was there to notice we walked out! I do not think I'll ever go back. read more

Fowler House Cafe - Chicken, Pepperoni, Sausage, etcetera...respectively. - American Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

I absolutely love the food, the people and the atmosphere here. I would love to give them 5 stars. I live across the street and would get food here at least twice a week. Unfortunately, they recently increased the prices of their food by about 30%. They added $2-$3 to just about every item on the menu. I will likely be eating here only once in a while now. What once was an amazing value, and got me in the door for a few drinks, now keeps me out and gives me the push I needed to explore other food options and drink options in the area. There are so many great places to eat in the Quincy area. Good luck Fowler House keeping your long time customers coming back in. read more
