Good food and drinks are to be found at this nice staple of beautiful downtown New Hope. Though the real star of the show is their wonderful presentation of The Great American Songbook, presented live here on selected fine evenings .

My husband and I don't visit this restaurant often enough. Ambiance, food, staff, live music, multiple bars/dining areas are all top notch. It has everything one could want in a restaurant. I'd give it 10 stars if I could!

We enjoyed a wonderful, relaxing experience during Sunday brunch at Bowman's Tavern Restaurant. The jazz ensemble always provides a delightful background. The menu choices are varied and are all delicious. I always order the Eggs Benedict, and always very satisfied. The others ordered the omelet and waffles. Equally pleased. The servers are polite and experienced and always on hand. Our family often comes for brunch to celebrate special occasions. Highly recommended.

Good casual dining, with piano bar. Older folks at piano bar area, seeing broadway & songs from "back in the day". Fun. Food is primarily "sandwich/burger" place, I had Ravioli, "ok" but would not order it again, sauce was good, pasta tough and or undercook. Next time it's a burger or cheesesteak. Not great, but a good, local restaurant.
