I am not from Fowler, instead I was invited here for a meeting of about 25 people. Upon arrival the establishment on our side was immaculate as far as cleanliness. We were welcomed by the owner and his staff. I love places that are owner run, you can really tell this person cared and wanted his bowling alley to succeed. He even wanted to get to know his guests but not to the point that made it overwhelming. He allowed for his to bring in cake to celebrate our occasion. The alleys were very well maintained. There were only 6 of them but there were absolutely no issues. The unlimited pop we had was always kept full. The pizzas were not the best but they were hot and fresh. There was another side that was a restaurant and it looked at least 2/3 full. Not sure on what else was on the menu but I would bet many of those guests were regulars. If you are in the area and have some time to kill this place will make you feel warm and welcomed. Glad I came out to this event, I found a new place that I may head back too soon.

A pretty good overall experience, perhaps a few things could be improved for next time…read more I was pleased with the quality of our appetizer, as well as the creativity. We went with a fried goat chase appetizer, which I've never had before, and never even seen on another menu before. The cook clearly enjoys using balsamic glaze as this was used on both the appetizer and later on my entrée as well. Balsamic glaze is certainly delicious, but I'm not sure if it goes well on quite as many things as the cook seems to think it does. My entrée was a dish of mushroom ravioli prepared in a purée made with green peas. I noted that the chef used a variety of spices in preparing the purée, to very good effect. My wife ordered the New York strip, and what was brought out looked very good. We both had cocktails, and in both cases the cocktails or well-made. I ordered a Mojito type drink made with tequila. My wife ordered a strawberry Mamosa. I noted the care that was taken in preparing both drinks which tells me there's a professional bartender on staff. About the only thing that needs to be improved is the service. We waited just a bit too long for certain aspects of the meal in a restaurant that was nearly empty. The server was certainly polite and well mannered, but I think he was the only one working that evening. Perhaps on weekends they're better staffed?

We tried three different devices to place an online order and couldn't get to the cart to place the order and pay. Then we called the restaurant and they wouldn't take our order over the phone. Who does that and why?! Anyhow, we ended up sending someone to the restaurant to order. Which ended up being fine since he was going to pick it up our orders anyways. I ordered a chicken bowl loaded with rice, lettuce, banana peppers, street corn, cilantro and onions, cheddar cheese, sour cream, guac, green sauce, and pico de gallo. I wanted black beans too but either the restaurant forgot or the orderer missed them. Even so, this flavor combo was an amazing treat for my taste buds. I really think it was the street corn that made the dish! Lots of lime flavor. Although it was a lot of food, I devoured the whole bowl plus chips and salsa. The chips weren't the greatest, but it was still nice to have that crunch with my bowl. Since we did carry out, I can't comment on the ambiance. But this food would probably be good any where! Just wish I lived closer so I could enjoy it again.

I posted a picture at the end of this review. Each salad included a fluffy freshly baked roll. The only negative was the rolls didn't come with real butter, but instead some oil spread which was not ideal. I also had a piece of their blueberry pie which was amazingly not too sweet not "corn-starchy", which is so often the case. I can only imagine the rest of their food offerings are ample and great! The service was excellent, and the ambience was amazing! The entire restaurant was beautifully decorated for Halloween. The bathroom was clean and handicap assisted. I highly recommend that you stop here for lunch or dinner. I am quite sure you won't be sorry!

When you're searching for outstanding food in a welcoming, laid-back setting, Tavern 1836…read moreabsolutely delivers. The only real challenge is deciding what to order--the menu is full of tempting options, and just when you think you've made up your mind, the specials board makes you rethink everything. It's a problem (but I guess a good one to have)! Fried items are consistently crisp and never greasy--clearly a result of the kitchen's commitment to fresh oil. The tater tots are my personal favorite, but the fries are just as memorable. The olive burger (photo) is epic. If you're after something lighter, the salmon is perfectly fresh and expertly prepared. And don't overlook the cheesesteak--it's as good as anything you'll find in Philly. For quality, variety, and genuine care in every dish, Tavern 1836 is a standout.
