Very local bar vibes, and I absolutely love it. I've hung around Sunnyside many times before and I'm surprised I hadn't checked out the Lowery. They have a cool brunch special on the weekends, and it's a sizable bar/restaurant, where you can have your own events. All I had was a simple drink (red sangria) and fries but dangggg those were hella good fries! I sat by the bar and snacked while I watched the game that day. I definitely want to come back and try more of their menu.

We both ordered the fish and chips. Service was very attentive. Lots of families with children dining the night we went. I appreciated the large screen TVs showing the US Open. Typical American restaurant with a pub atmosphere.

It's been close to a decade since The Lowery made its way into Sunnyside, which has lowkey been one of the most well managed bar-restaurants in the neighborhood. Prior to its success, this spot would morph every few years from a couple of Turkish eateries (#1)(#2) and a Middle Eastern deli (#3). Now with everything from happy hour to brunch, they've cemented themselves as one of Sunnyside's most popular and beloved spots. While it might initially feel like one of the neighborhood's many Irish pubs (with Guiness on tap!), it feels more like a local's hangout with just enough of an intimate vibe for a date night, and the space for a solid group gathering over drinks. Speaking of the latter, the occasional Monday happy hour happens between 3-6pm, with most pricing at around $12-13 retail. The silent smoke is my preferred cocktail, featuring mezcal, agave, lime, and pineapple juice. The food is definitely a reason to come here, especially for their signature burger ($20), which features the Pat LaFrieda meat blend and is a must-order. Their french cut chicken ($29) is among their prettiest dishes, while the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich ($20) is heartier than it looks. Their flatbreads ($17-22) are an easy item for sharing and some of their small plates (especially the calamari and brussel sprouts) are a nice way to start. Their popular brunch hour is more of the same except with standard breakfast items, but some standouts such as breakfast tacos ($14), Scottish salmon bowl ($21), steak benedict ($20), and a mean fish and chips ($21). The burger is still available, except in brunch form (i.e. with an egg) and makes for an excellent combination with fingerling potatoes. Though the pre-pandemic years, the service was a tad rougher but they've since ironed out many of those issues. The prices are still on the higher end for the neighborhood, but coming in with the expectation will result in less sticker shock. I still dig the additional outdoor dining setup, but being inside is still the preference. Owner and longtime resident Anne Muldoon had always envisioned The Lowery to be a go-to spot for Sunnysiders. Not only has the dream come to fruition, but the real winners are the residents of the neighborhood. __________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/sofra-cafe-sunnyside (#2) https://www.yelp.com/biz/grill-43-sunnyside (#2) https://www.yelp.com/biz/el-shater-sunnyside

The service is very friendly! There's ample seating for dining and a separate bar area. The food is okay. Nothing spectacular but it wasn't bad either. I don't know if I'd come back for the food but would check it out for after work drinks or to hang out with friends!

Lowery Breakfast
Mandisa N.

Before making our way to Gov Ball this year, my friends and I decided to stop by The Lowery for a boozy brunch. They DO NOT have bottomless, but I would say their cocktails are reasonably priced and pretty good! We did make a reservation (made through their website) so that gave us peace of mind about getting a table, but we did arrive early enough to where they weren't too packed yet. They did fill up more as time went by. It seems to be a local favorite, beaming with a lot of families. It's a very casual spot - so if you're looking for something chill, this is a good option. I thought the food was decent. Wasn't mad at it, but it didn't blow me away either. My friends and I really liked the diversity in their food offerings - we have pretty different food preferences so it was nice that we were all so well accommodated. I don't know if I would run to return here, but I wouldn't recommend against it.

Chris S.

The Lowery Bar and Kitchen is cozy and inviting, offering a variety of American dishes along with some British-inspired options. If you're in the mood for fried fish, this is a good spot; they even serve bao. The customer service is great, with a courteous and attentive staff.

Small steak on the brunch menu for $40, sauce on the eggs Benedicts didn't taste right. Overall its okay.

Anuraag R.

Really amazing service here from the moment you walk in the door, all the waitresses were warm and welcoming and immediately knew the food would be great. Solid beer /cocktail list and the decorations for Christmas made it extra cozy around this cold time of year. Highly recommend a fully decked out brunch burger with avocado bacon. Get a side of french toast too, but be prepared because these two will have you ready for a nap.

Veggie breakfast burger
Anna Y.

The place was very lovely and cozy and the service was good. What was lacking was the flavor of the food. Went with a group of friends and we all ordered different brunch items but all agreed the flavor was very lackluster. The flat breads were very tasty and flavorful, so was the roasted brussel sprouts but the main entree was where they fell short which should have been the star of the show. I had the Lower Breakfast and the sides was good but the poached eggs tasted like boiled nothingness and the hollandaise sauce was just yellow liquid....all zero flavor. Would I go back... probably for a small bite of flatbread but definitely not for brunch.

Great elevator pub situated in cozy Sunnyside Queens offering huge selection of craft beers, cocktails and impeccable grub. Happy hour Monday through Friday and the staff is so friendly. Lively with mature crowd. Parking is a bit difficult due to residential streets nearby, but definitely worth the trip.

Sheila M.

The atmosphere is very pleasant and friendly. They gave us several choices of drinks for the event.. red/white sangria, ebbs summer ale, Narragansett... pls is great place to have a drink. Bryan is a great bartender

Red sangria
Samira D.

Upon walking into Lowery, I was met with a welcoming, friendly, warm greeting from the staff. I ordered a red sangria and also the Brussel sprouts. The Brussel sprouts were crispy, glazed, and should not be a considered a vegetable....they were that delicious. The bartenders were all very friendly and were great hosts. There were all of regulars at the bar there for brunch, or just grabbing a drink and no questions why. When a place treats everyone like family, you're likely to patron it when it feels like home.

The Bacon and Fig Old Fashioned.
Angel B.

I stumbled into The Lowery Bar and Grill after driving past it far too many times. I had the Fig and Bacon Old Fashioned, and The Burger Medium well with the Salad. My server was Casper, in which I never had to ask his name because a party of 6 to my left had already asked for it obviously due to his great hospitality. The Fig and Bacon Old Fashioned was pretty nice. The Bacon was perfect. The fig was a nice touch. I appreciate Casper's knowledge of pairing The Fig and Bacon Old Fashioned and The Burger. Definitely a great match. The food came out almost instantly. The Burger was cooked to the temp requested, and not over seasoned, yet didn't require anything additional for salting. The bun has a tongue hug effect that I have yet to experience elsewhere and definitely adds a memorable difference to just any average bar burger. The salad that came with it also was satisfying, it was not over dressed and had a good balance of ingredients. It was perfect, with just the salad for me. I tend to be a light to average eater. So if you do like to eat a heavy meal you can instead get fries. The ambiance is very well ranged for either a loner dinner (as I did), a casual dinner date night with a companion or your better half. Also as previously mentioned it can be a great place to also bring a group of friends or associates as well. The music was perfect for the energy of the bar, and mixed up (in a good way). As I was writing this review Casper gently offered me the dessert menu, I appreciated his attention to all the different parties at the bar. I didn't see anyone waiting for him for any amount of time. His communication with his co workers also was very comforting to hear. As a former Sous Chef I can appreciate the kitchen punctuality and maintaining great communication with BOH staff. Dessert: Casper helped me finalize on the Blueberry Pie and instead of Vanilla Ice Cream, I subbed for Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream. This was well worth it, the warmth of the pie automatically brought me to a food heaven on earth, the ice cream was very straight to the classic mint ice cream, and I am not usually a pie nor ice cream person. Yet it was the perfect choice for my dessert stomach. And a great way to fuse dinner with a sweet ending. Overall I enjoyed this experience for less than 50 bucks. Chef's kiss. and for a second NYC slowed down. Thank you.

The biggest question then became, where to go? We needed a place that was relatively easy to get to that would hold close to 100 people. Jungly was a contender for several reasons - it's location, size, vibe, and menu all seemed to check off. It also helped that I had done business with the owner previously at one of his other spots. It seemed like the natural choice, so I went ahead with the booking. Jungly is located in LIC - it's a pretty convenient spot as its close to the LIRR and the subway. Parking can be a challenge, but luckily I found a spot only a block away. The space itself is nicely set up - walking in you're immediately greeted by the bar area with dining areas both to the left and the right. Due to our size, they closed the place to the public and we were able to freely roam the bar area and one of the dining rooms. In addition to standard tables, they have some lounge space and high tops by the bar. The vibe is somewhat modern - a black/grey color scheme paired with neon and golds. It looks like the space could easily be converted to a club-like atmosphere. Since we were here for a private event, the food was set up buffet style - we chose three apps, four mains, and two sides. Ultimately, for apps we chose pita bread with dips, steak tacos, and shrimp tacos. For mains we chose fried chicken sliders, smashed beef sliders, cacio e pepe, and roasted chicken. For sides, we got fries and Brussels sprouts. In general, all of the food was tasty; the strongest dishes were the tacos, fries, and the chicken tacos. The tacos were generously filled, the fries were the crispy skin style, and the chicken sliders were nice and crispy. The weakest for me was the cacio e pepe - not much flavor and just not really a standout IMO. My communication with management to set up the event were a little staccato, though in the end everything worked out. For the most part, my communication with them was consistent in the days leading up to the event. Service the night of the event was overall good - they were very accessible but I found that they could have replenished the food a little faster in response to the rate it was being taken from the buffet. The bar, on the other hand, was great - both in service and variety of liquor available. Overall, we had a great event at Jungly. They were professional, fair, and delivered on the goods. I would definitely consider hosting another event there, or dine here on my own.

The bartender, the one person who should be welcoming and engaging, came across as rude and lacked any charisma. On a Friday night, good energy behind the bar makes a huge difference, and that was completely missing. I ordered a margarita, which is one of the simplest and most common cocktails to make. I asked for it really sweet with plenty of salt on the rim. Instead, it came out barely sweet and with almost no salt. For a $17 margarita, I expected much better. I've had to return the drink because I've had better margaritas for $12 at other places. While waiting for my friend, I had to wait with a glass of water because I didn't trust the way they made the drink. The bartender told me I either needed to order another drink or move, which felt unnecessarily rude and unwelcoming. To be fair, the food was good and the space itself is nice. However, the bar service left a very poor impression. There are plenty of more affordable places where the staff are friendly and make guests feel welcome.
