Glory Beer Bar & Kitchen is a must if you're in the Independence Park area of Philly! My wife and I…read morevisited while we were there and loved it! They aren't lying when they say that they have an extensive beer menu! I had a Dancing Gnome Kolsch which was very good and then a Corsendork Christmas Ale which was fantastic! I normally don't like spiced beer, but this one was perfect! My wife and I shared the cheese and salumi plate which was so delicious! My only re is not getting the large! My wife had the crispy chicken sandwich which was really good. The crust was crunchy and the chicken was tender and juicy. I had the porchetta sandwich which was recommended by our waiter and was SO DELICIOUS! It is a must! At first my wife was concerned about the limited menu. They may not have an extensive menu but what they do, they do right! Our waiter was really great and very welcoming, especially as we were from out of town. The place has a rustic vibe which fits with its old town location. We loved it! If we ever find ourselves back in Philly, we will definitely visit Glory again!

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.

Wow was this a great event. 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.

Overall: This is my favorite tap room in the city! There's always room, staff and patrons are…read morealways friendly, and the beer is always good. Worth stopping by if you're in the West Village! Food: 4 Drinks: 5 Service: 4 Value: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Food: Surprisingly good. We shared the chicken quesadilla. It was filled to the filled to the brim and delicious. They cooked it perfectly with the edges getting extra crispy like a tortilla chip. I didn't have high expectations for a place thats primarily a bar, but this blew me away all things considered. Drinks: Best taproom in the city. 20+ premium options. They have an awesome selection of beers, including some local options. They have wine and liquor too, but you should focus on the beer. This is the place to go for a good draught. Service: Servers are friendly and down to earth. They're great at suggesting different beers. Value: Not cheap, but not bad. Beers are $8-10 (pretty much market price in the West Village) and food is a decent bargain given how much food you get. Atmosphere: Its a cross between an old school pub and a sports bar. Its dark and 90% male (my wife always comments on how male heavy it is) but I think it has a good vibe. Good beer, good food options, and friendly servers.

The crowd is pretty young, but as a mid-40s, I don't feel out of place. The bartenders are knowledgable and always helpful in making decisions. Why they didn't get 5-stars: This is actually a 4.5-star place and only gets dinged 1/2 star is that is can be hard to get a table or a spot to be. It's a very small venue, so be prepared to stand around a bit. That's it, great beers, good vibes, still a great spot!!!

Great late night bar. They have very good beer selections, I got the chicken wings which were delicious. Super friendly staff. I loved it so much. I bought a hat and a T-shirt. I'm a tourist, but I just sat at the bar quietly and felt like I fit in.

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.
