Cook and Shaker is a cozy corner bar that just reopened after renovations!
The bar was huge with nice ambient lighting. There were also lots of high tops around the restaurant, plenty of seating in an open space.
One of the bartenders, Tori, gave us samples of their espresso martini which was SO delicious. One of the best I’ve had in Philly. Highly recommend.
For food, we got the cook and shaker salad, popcorn chicken and their special of the night which was a pizza steak sandwich with vodka sauce. The salad was fresh and delicious, the croutons seemed homemade (the best). The popcorn chicken was heavily breaded which I personally like, but my friend wasn’t a fan. If you like crispy small pieces of chicken, you’ll enjoy these.
We were unfortunately not a fan of the pizza steak sandwich. We got it because of the vodka sauce, but we couldn’t taste that at all. We swapped it for a grilled cheese, which was just okay.
Overall, we loved the atmosphere, espresso martini and some of the food. I will definitely come back in the future to try more things!

I decided to check out this place based on the glowing reviews, but others are severely overselling it unless this is just the standard in Philly. As a transplant, I can’t understand the hype.
Staff was really nice and helpful. They great everyone who walks in, which does not seem to be the going rate in Philly.
I ordered the meatloaf special because it was recommended and I assumed I’d be coming back and could check out the menu then. It looked fantastic, so I was excited to try it. But it had a one-dimensional onion flavor to it, but at least it wasn’t dry. The potatoes that came with it were unseasoned and under salted.
As for drinks, the Smoke Show was phenomenal – interesting, well balanced flavors of mezcal, green chartreuse, and jalapeño with a maraschino cherry garnish. It was so good that I was convinced to try another drink. I was stuck between two choices, then the bartender said the Olde Richmond Punch was his favorite. I can’t imagine why. It simply tastes of whiskey and lemon – none of the honey nor rosemary came through. And I can see why if the rosemary incorporation was simply a few floating rosemary leaves. It didn’t taste bad, but it was nowhere near the caliber of drink as the Smoke Show.
Overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Cook & Shaker is back after renovations! This was my favorite local spot after recently moving here and I’m so happy to see it back open and better than ever! They still have the same amazing food, craft beer, and cocktails and the new space is huge and beautiful. There is 3 times the amount of dining space and the bar is twice the size now with 30 seats. There is also a huge new window letting in tons of natural light and sunset views, that’s opened during good weather. Now with many huge tvs it is the perfect place to watch any sports game!
You’ll come for the game and stay for the food and drinks:) I got the weekly Sunday 16$ dinner special that comes with 1 draft beer and 1 sandwhich. I got the cod filet sandwich and the dragonfruit mango sour draft beer. Both were phenomenal! The hours and menu is currently updated only on Instagram, as well as daily dinner specials posted @Cookandshaker. This is the new place to be in Fishtown so don’t miss out! Reservations required for parties of 5 or more!!

We came in with a group of 9 for Sunday brunch, no reservation, and were seated right away at a big table. Our server Liz was super attentive and awesome – she consistently met our needs, kept drinks and coffee full, and brought a calm and positive attitude. The food was great too. Simple and flavorful. Will be back for sure!

Newly reopened
Great ambiance, great service
Food was fresh, filling, and worth the price
Housemade cocktails had thought, depth of flavours
Pierogi’s were worth the stop alone, and don’t sleep on Grilled cheese !

First time in on a Friday night for the tail end of happy hour. Sat at the bar which was relatively crowded. Ordered 4 half priced apps (yay!) and 2 $5 cocktails on special. I would’ve stayed all night! My new neighborhood hidden gem.

Amazing, eclectic cuisine. Bison chilly is a must. And the tots, so choice. I’ve been here a few times and it does not disappoint. Great neighborhood bar and restaurant

My wife and I were very pleased with our dining experience. She started with a hot coffee cocktail which she thoroughly enjoyed, while I ordered the Perfect Pear cocktail, which was like a drunken dessert in a glass. Delicious! It wouldn’t be right if we didn’t get appetizers. My wife has the dry run wings that come with this Chipotle ranch. I don’t like ranch, but this sauce was superb. The smokiness of the sauce was a nice touch. I had the vegetable spring rolls. I’m not a fan of cilantro, but I enjoyed them, all things considered. They are accompanied by a scrumptious sweet chili sauce. Makes you forget about the cilantro…unless you’re into that kind of thing. Then, the piece de resistance! The filet poutine. We both couldn’t resist ordering it and we couldn’t have been happier. Tender, juicy pieces of filet, creamy cheese curds, tasty gravy and fries (they’re French fries….c’mon). If you order this, kid the chef for us (after covid, of course). Great service brought it all together. Not to mention, good music. It was a vibe.
