Almost four years after my previous review, this place is still doing it for me.
Great food. Great service. Great personalities.Great place to watch sports.
Just moved back to the area (again...don't ask). Â This is my home bar. It's my Cheers. And I'm Norm. Minus the wife, Â hair, and a few lbs.
This is the bar I root for. We all have one. It's the one I want to be successful. The one for which I've anointed myself Honorary Public Relations Representative. The one that I will defend if anyone dare speak ill.
It might not look like much from the outside, but once you step through the doors you open up a world of possibilities. It's literally as if you transport into a box of Forrest Gump's chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. Maybe it's a chill night of Keno while you're one of two people in the bar. Maybe it's a little more lively night where you end up singing Sweet Caroline to a hundred drunks. You just don't know.
That's what I love about this place.
The bar's name reminds me of a lookout point. That's exactly what I got. My friends and I went in for a Saturday night imbibe after visiting a disappointing rock band venue. Cow's nest had tables and booths like a mom and pop, a long bar and a karaoke machine. That's what I remember.
We ordered a large pepperoni pizza, loaded tots and an outpouring of liquor and beer. I would say it was the first time eating loaded tots (a reinvented version of loaded nachos). The meal isn't disappointing the least.
The atmosphere was really intimate, you can still hold a drunken, veritable conversation with friends and also have a good time. Locals were becoming karaoke legends singing and dancing to their favorite tunes. The Crow's Nest gave me the best view.
