Delicious food, friendly service, lively and casual vibes, what more could you possibly ask for? The carnitas nachos were absolute fire, and the pickled onions were a really nice touch and helped to balance out the overall dish so it didn't feel too greasy and heavy. The tator tots reminded me more of fried mashed potato balls rather than the grated texture I'm more used to, but it still tasted divine (I mean you really can't go wrong with deep fried potatoes in any way, shape, or form). Have heard from others who had ordered the caprese sandwich, burgers, and steak frites that they really enjoyed their dishes and would definitely be coming back. If you're looking for a casual spot around Dorchester/Quincy to grab a drink or snacks/dinner, look no further cause this place is it!! Also, never had to look far or long for street parking. read more

Hands down one of favorite places to go. The atmosphere is great - good place to watch sports at the bar or in a booth. The outside patio is fun in the warm weather (even late Fall) as well. The menu changes periodically for seasonal food and drink options. They have a great beer and cocktail menu as well. We go here a few times a month and it's always a good time. read more

Stopped here on our way back into the city from Newport. I have been wanting to try this place for a while and it did not disappoint. I loved everything about our experience. It would have been nice to sit outside but it was raining. Their outside patio is so cute and their inside dining area has major vibes. Our waitress was so nice. We were absolutely exhausted after our trip and she made stopping for food worth it. The food was amazing. Their menu has everything you could possibly want from a bar and tastes fabulous. If I had a car I would venture out of the city every week to come here! read more

I really like the food and back patio. The service could be improved by a lot. The hostess stand is disorganized and unwelcoming. The servers disappear. It's a good spot that could be great if the service improves. read more

Meeting some friends here for Sunday brunch was a good idea. The weather was perfect, the traffic was light, and back patio was quaint. I started with a sparkling rose, while my friends got different versions of margaritas. We started with the loaded guacamole. Holy cow that was good! I'm not sure I'll ever be satisfied with regular guacamole again. All the fixins they added made it like a delicious 7 layer dip and we ate every morsel. Among what we ordered were a burger, Baja chicken sandwich, a salmon salad, and fish tacos. All looked amazing and my fish tacos were tasty but I can't wait to try that Baja chicken sandwich. I was drooling watching my friend tear into it. Our service was acceptable although a little slow, but we were chatting away so it wasn't too noticeable. I think parking was a little challenging but I would easily come back here. Cute place and great food! read more

Wow! How fun this dinner was. Stumbled upon these holiday yurts online and decided to celebrate my birthday in one. You can fit a maximum of 8 people inside one yurt and the yurt is still spacious and comfortable. They have two space heaters inside- one that serves as a light at the top of the yurt and another in the back of the yurt-so it is very warm. If for whatever reason you get cold, they also had blankets/scarves for you to use as well! The yurt is decorated on the inside as well to give a super cute holiday vibe. We paid $200 for the yurt which gets applied to your final bill which was a huge plus. As far as food and drinks goes, everyone LOVED what they got. We ordered several appetizers: Buffalo cauliflower, spinach dip, and nachos. All were super tasty, but I thoroughly enjoyed the Buffalo cauliflower. I really wanted to try their crap Rangoon dip, so that will have to be a next time thing. For drinks the two big hits were the dazed & infused as well as the butter me up old fashioned. I though the dazed & infused was exceptional. I was between that and I believe the two for flinching and our waitress highly recommending the dazed & infused. Very good. Very tasty. Highly recommend. For dinner, I ordered the steakhouse burger. It was huge! It was ok, but still tasty. Definitely a lot of food! Many others ordered the steakhouse burger as well. Lastly, our waitress was great. Very nice, super kind, and attentive. Would definitely come back! read more

I LOVE this place. I can't tell you how many times I've gone. I've gone for both breakfast and lunch but not for dinner yet. I've tried the breakfast sammie--so so yummy. My favorite dishes to get are the Crab Ragoon Dip, Sweet Potato Fries and the Cobb Salad. Their fish tacos are good too, just not better than what I've just mentioned lol. I didn't care for the Steakhouse Burger because all thats on it are fried onions and cheddar cheese, although the beef was juicy and tender. I didn't like the Steak and Avocado salad-- the steak wasn't all that. I didn't really like their breakfast pancakes but the Donut Holes were so yummy. As I said before, the Breakfast Sammie was DELICIOUS. Something about eggs, arugala, and avocado that just works. I love going in the summer because it's a great vibe outside. Even inside with the windows open it feels like vacation. They have a lot of different options to choose from. I haven't been disappointed yet. read more

Had a pretty epic Cobb salad here (see pic). It was a full plate that ended up going home. Perfect grilled chicken, loved the bacon crumbles and fresh avocado. Loved that I could swap out the dressing for something else I liked. Pretty fairly priced given the portion size. We were a party of 6 with a very attentive server. Well paced with her offerings, and fulfilling requests in a timely manner. One in our party was a toddler so that piece was critical. read more

Wifey has wanted to try this place for some time for date night so we finally did it! We are going to have to come here again, it was great! From the outside it looks like your standard restauratant/bar but they have a quaint back patio area with a bar and string lights. The patio area is very well kept and well spaced out. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They were apologetic when they told me they ran out of cherries for my old fashion. Their fries were tasty! once you start you, can't stop. Wifey got a burger and i snuck some fries and i regretted not getting something with a fries. I got the lobster mac and cheese and it was very good, one of the better ones I've had in a long time. It had an ample amount of knuckle and claw lobster meat so you get your moneys worth. The bar for an excellent lobster mac and cheese is the old Max and Dylan's in downtown (sadly gone), by far the best lobster mac and cheese i have ever had. It just missed the velvety texture, otherwise it would've replaced Max and Dylan's place in my heart, or stomach. You know what I mean! The beer selection isn't huge but there is enough variety and they have a lot of whiskey options, not high end but solid familiar choices. I will be sure to update you when we go again! read more

Went for dinner with a party of four. The cocktail menu is very good. Spinach dip app was delicious. Could have been "warmer". Baked in a dish with cheese. The dip was luck warm when it arrived at the table. Enough for 4 to share. Shrimp cocktail was 4 HUGE shrimp. We ordered The following entrees... Lobster Mac & cheese , a chicken pasta dish (forget what it was) short ribs, chippy (fish and chips). Tater Tots (they are VERY large and you get 8) The food was good. The service was good. The wait time on food was over an hour- not good. (3 stars) when server says I'm sorry your food isn't out, i think someone else grabbed yours by mistake but it will be out soon. I would return when weather permits sitting on their large outdoor patio for cocktails. There are just too many other places that are much better for a good dinner. read more

Good thing I didn't check the reviews before I came (a rarity). This place is a block from a friend's house and 4 of us went to The Bowery Bar on Presidents' day to have some food a dranks. I'd like to go back, so I hope my good experience wasn't an anomaly. Since it was Prez day, we had the day off from work and met at Bowery Bar at 1 PM. The waiter was attentive through 4 rounds of drinks and lunch. I mean... I know that I had the root beer old fashioned (a little too sweet for me), executive mimosa (a mimosa with an extra kick), the pain killah (rum and goodness) and a french 75. If I had more than that, I don't remember (did I actually order the espresso martini or just thiiiink about it?). Lol! I enjoyed the fact that they have a large drink menu and Buffalo Trace in their bourbon selection. There are so many other drinks that I would try here! For food, I had the market cobb salad which came with chicken for $17. It was one of the better cobbs I've had. Plenty of good chicken, yummy bacon, egg and avocado. Despite drinking the entire bar, I still couldn't finish the salad. I'm thinking of moving to this area. If I do, I have a feeling this place will become a mainstay. read more

The winter yurts are such a cute and fun idea for the cold weather! The yurt had a heater and plenty of warm blankets to keep us warm, though we didn't need them because the heat works well. The food is great and we loved the crab Rangoon dip, it's great for sharing! The service is really good and fast considering the distance from the restaurant, but we got our food quickly for such a large party. They also never made us feel rushed because there was not a party reserved right after us, so we got some extra time to hang out in the yurt. The restaurant itself is nice too, with music playing and can get quite loud when there's many people. Nice bar area, though kind of small and can get crowded. Overall great time! read more

We decided to check out Bowery Bar for the first time via takeout on a Friday evening. Despite issues with the online takeout platform, I appreciated the staff taking our order on the phone on a busy night. Pick up was without issues and allowed me to get a peak into what seemed like a vibrant, cozy, elevated atmosphere inside. We ordered burgers and sandwiches all around. The Burger Deluxe and Steakhouse Burger got thumbs up. The Hot Bird was found to be overpoweringly spicy, leaving something to be desired. The Healthy Burger (perhaps could do with a more creative name...) was also tasty. The mix of beans, quinoa, farro and sweet potato gave the patty great texture and flavor. The spicy aioli added a richer, creamier element, alongside the avocado, which seemed a bit more like a smattering of guacamole than sliced avocado. Overall, a solid option for vegetarians. The fries...meh, I've had better. Trended a little too far in the frozen food fries direction. Would probably consider trying again in person when the weather warms up! read more

Just tried to eat and drink here and was immediately seated. Saw a few people at the bar with two bartenders and two bartenders outside with 3 tables seated. We were brought water and we immediately ordered our drinks. We inquired on the tequila available and she did not but informed me all the "major ones" So we ordered two drinks and 20 minutes later no drinks, as we are walking out we see our drinks made & the waitress conversing over our drinks with the bartender. No thanks, definitely not what I was expecting. However the outside seating was beautiful, disappointed to say the least. read more

Had a good experience here and really enjoyed my food, drinks, and atmosphere. I did ask for my burger medium rare and it came well done, and I also asked for just plain guacamole without the extra toppings because I can't eat dairy and it still came out regular.

This place always delivers! Food is always fresh and tasty and drinks are always great too. First time sitting indoors since Covid and have to say that I love all the precautions in place. Glass everywhere without it feeling overwhelming. The crab Rangoon dip is a must have each time. Mac and cheese was very creamy and delicious! It did bring a lot of peas and I hate peas.. but it was still delicious. Dr. Pepper wings are very tasty but definitely don't have any hint of that Dr Pepper flavor. Loved my espresso martini today! read more

I have been going to the Bowery bar for the last 7 years and I have always had a great experience. My favorite dinner at most places is Steak Tips with mashed potatoes and a vegetable. I usually go to restaurants in the Quincy, Dorchester, Weymouth area. There are a number of places that make great steak tips dinners but in my opinion, nobody did it better than The Bowery. The Steak tips and the Mashed Potatoes were the absolute best around. I know the Newbridge Cafe in Chelsea has long held the title as the best but on this side of town, TheBowery Bar was the best. Now my problem was that I went there tonight (April 3, 2025) . I went there for one reason. I wanted a great dinner and a couple of cold beers. I didn't need to look at a menu. When I went to order while sitting at the bar, The Female bartender told me that they had just recently changed their menu. The Steak Tips are no longer on the menu !!! I was shocked and disappointed. I have been ordering the same thing from this place for a long time. This dinner was the absolute best. But The Bowery bar did the unthinkable and discontinued their best item on the menu. I settled for a boring burger. Not quite the same. I'm just so surprised, shocked, and disappointed that my favorite item and the favorite of a few friends and family, is now no longer available. It's just wrong. The Fowler House and The Hancock Tavern in Quincy are both very good. Blasis and the Hilltop Tavern and Granite Links are good. But we did a taste test and The Bowery was voted the very best by my Group of Friends and Family. I'm simply asking The powers that be at The Bowery bar to bring back the best food on the menu. This is just wrong. Ok , I'm done and I did my best. I would be happy to speak with a Manager, owner, VP or cook. Please get back to me. read more

Let me first start by stating how much I hate Yelpers and their assumed power from complaining over stupid shit like a blue haired old woman who got too much ice in her senior cup of diet caffeine free coke. However, this place made my daughter sick tonight, so fuck them. I usually love this places food, atmosphere and general vibe. In a city where Irish pubs and fish restaurants are all there is to offer, a modern American Bar is much needed (as well as many other things). Tonight, we ordered the kids Mac and cheese for my daughter. As most parents do, we had to coax her into eating it a bit and tried it ourselves. I'm no chef but I know a lazy roux when I taste one. I thought there was too much flower or some such shit but whatever, it's a kids meal and my daughter likes it, so let's go. Later... my 2 year old daughter not only had the foulest smelling shit I've ever been unfortunate enough to smell, she blew full chunks of macaroni (shells) all over her bed. Like projectile vomiting. It was absurd that a human that small could spew that much. Insane. To be frank, I'll give this place another chance cause usually it's dope and has good food. But it's Friday night, my daughter is puking, and right now fuck this place. read more

Great variety of bar food and consistently amazing! I love the loaded nachos burgers and pot pie! The fish & chips isn't bad either!

Came for dinner and drinks on a Friday. We got right in and got a table at 4pm by 5:30 they were packed ! Decor and vibe is awesome here ! Lydia was our server she went above and beyond to accommodate my son( food allergies). Her service was overall perfect! They offer a kids menu here which is a plus! Drinks were really good our table had a few pain killer , mai Thai, espresso martini and a tequila drink . I would suggest the espresso martini! All drink presentation was beautiful and IG worthy! We ordered buff wings for appetizer they were excellent. Next we ordered surf and turf, lobster roll, and chicken sandwich ( the fried one) . All our meals were good, we all agreed we would try something else next time but everything was decent. Truffle fries and Buffalo wings were of favorite foods of the night ! Lol The outdoor seating area was so cute! Can't wait to come by and try brunch outside. All food and drink presentations were nice, wish we took pictures .

Second time here.Came here for a birthday. Ordered drinks and Crab Rangoon and Guacamole apps. Could have used more guacamole and the chips on both could have been fresher, tasted stale.

The food was well seasoned was just hoping for HOT food for the price. Disappointed taking friends for their first time read more
