    Love your Rueben sandwich. You are the only restaurant where I know I will get tender, thinly sliced corned beef. I do not like cream of chicken soup and never eat it - tried yours and it was delish! I brought a guest for her first time - she liked ambiance. We were an early reservation and seated at booth at front of restaurant- street side. I was uncomfortably cold. I completely realize yours is an old building, but there were ample other options away from the window. No, I didn’t ask to be moved coz I didn’t want to embarrass my guest. Our server was friendly, attentive and delightful. Your hostess would benefit from a few how to smile lessons.

    We have visited Bowman’s from Monmouth County every December for the past 7 years and it never disappoints. Wonderful food, even better people and service. It’s our favorite family holiday tradition!

    Service was fine. The place is old and smelled. Food wasn’t good. Need to deep clean taps as the draught beer smelled and tasted sour.

    Love the live music - it adds an extra touch to this local, cozy gem. Food is tasty comfort food, well made. Nothing pretentious about this place. A great, casual dining experience with locally sourced and fresh ingredients.
