Excellent service, excellent beer list, and excellent English and American food. An all-around winner.
I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and the boyfriend had the shepherd's pie. Both were ample portion sizes, so make sure when you're here, you come hungry! My sandwich was more than just the usual chicken-slab-on-a-bun: thick bread slices slathered with garlic mayo really added a lil' something extra to the meal. The shepherd's pie was hot as all get-out whenever it first arrived, which is all well and good until you're so hungry that you burn a few tastebuds in the process because you can't wait to eat–patience is not my strong suit.
We started off with beers and then switched to grog on a whim. For those who've never had it (I hadn't), grog is a rum and lime concotion originally drunk by pirates to prevent scurvy. Whether that's true or not, it WAS tasty, and I rested a little easier that night knowing my gums were safe.
Service was really great: Our waitress checked on us frequently, kept our water glasses full, and made suggestions for beers when we couldn't decide. Our food also came out extremely quickly, so kudos to the kitchen on that one.
Longbow has everything you want in a neighborhood pub: good food (grilled cheese! savory pies! desserts!), a waitress who will remember your face every time, many kinds of booze (duh), and fun events. They host a weekly trivia on Tuesdays where the prize is your team's WHOLE BAR TAB.
Basic British pub tucked away in Bay Ridge, during afternoon hours, service can be a little more low key since there's no servers. The bartender works as a server before drinking hour.
Their scotch eggs were kind of disappointing, they were cold and there was barely any flavor. The salad it came with had vinaigrette at the bottom so I recommend mixing it before you eat it.
The steak and ale pie had more flavor compared to the scotch eggs. The pie was the size of a personal pie, not too filling but enough to be shared between 2 people.
Overall, food isn't too shabby, prices aren't bad but don't expect the food to blow you away.
I came here with my boyfriend for a drink this past weekend and it was an overall great experience. They had the game on and a really nice list of beers. I tried a maple beer and a creme brûlée stout. So good! the bartender was nice, too. I would go back 🙂 Their food menu looked good, too!
I came here to eat on a Friday night and it wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be. I had the fish and chips were good, nothing spectacular. I wasn't really feeling their chips but the fried fish was delicious. I would go here again if all the other restaurants on 3rd avenue weren't so packed!
Went back and still a great place!
Food was very good. Just wished I had more! I tried the fish and chips and the homemade tarter sauce was delicious. Also had some welsh rarebit, a bit zingy from the traditional but very good. Staff was a very nice and attentive. Lots of soccer fans in this place as well. Will return for sure.
Atmosphere: Typical sports bar. Nice sized screen in the back of the bar to watch the poor mets lose the world series.
Drinks: I just had wine, but my friend had a snakebite and absolutely loved it.
Service: Was just OK. A bit short with me at first but then got better towards the end of the night.
