Came here with a large party of 12. Server was great, the food was excellent. They have some of the best briskets I've ever had. Delicious and can't wait to come back.
We walked in as a party of 7(4 adults & 3 kids). The manager, a heavy set white guy, originally said they could only seat us if we were done by 4p, it was 2:30p when we arrived. Apparently he needed the table.We picked this restaurant because my wife has celiac disease, & their website said the have GF options.As we are seated we notice the whole upstairs is empty, & the restaurants lower level is only about 50% full.The waiter, young white guy w/ animal skull tattoo on his left forearm. Seemed like he could care-less about my wife's dietary needs, asked if the Cobb salad has gluten-free dressing. He said, "whatever it comes with" ... The only GF menu is apparently online. The laminated menus show no specifics about gluten free options.Over all our party was not impressed. The food quality has gone down. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich, it was mostly gristle. Another adult ordered the bbq flatbread, it was soggy, not crisp at all.Our food didn't arrive till 4p, idk who was waiting for the table. There was no large party there other then us.Not happy overall.
A variety of bbq options. I had a brisket sandwich and it was delicious. The staff and ambience of the place was excellent. A must visit for bbq.
The food is really good. Ribs are delicious as well as the wings. Ordered meat pies which were yummy but disappointed that you only get two pies for the price and we had a party of 3..for the price we expected atleast 3 to 4 pies on the plate...Also the happy hour drink specials are only allowed in the "bar area" so when sitting literally 3 feet outside of the bar at a booth during happy hour, ordering a ton of food, You are still charged $8 for a drink that is $5 for people sitting right next to you..which i think is ridiculous, but whatever, I did ask and was refused the happy hour price. It's not about the money, just more the principle. I just don't like sitting at Hightop tables so I'm charged more for the same item because of where I'm sitting..
Heard a lot of good things about the place. Was a little disappointed with the food. Service good and place had great atmosphere. Will try again since rating are high. Won't do ribs again tho.
We have lived in New Milford for years now and Cook house is our favorite place to eat out when we go out. Staff is top notch , drinks and appetizers are always great. Serving sizes and quality are always top shelf. Pleasantly the check is never a surprise and will not break your budget. I highly recommend Cook House it has never been a disappointment to me and my family.
Amazing food, nice atmosphere!!
Arrived at 3:15pm to an empty parking lot.I ordered The Big Kahuna, which is a combination of pulled pork, brisket, sausage, small rack of ribs, and roasted chicken.2 sides: seasonal greens& baked beans.My order came out semi cold, needed to send back, the meats were without that nice smoke flavor I remembered from past visits.The seasonal greens were a bit under cooked.All and all I was disappointed because I had chosen The Cookhouse that I remembered from years gone by.I understand that it was 3:15 in the afternoon and I was the only customer there, but whether it is 9:00am when they open or after 3 in the afternoon it doesn't change the price $40.79 so it shouldn't change the quality of the food being served.
We've been here multiple times, this was my first time having a burger as I usually get bbq. The burger did not disappoint at all! It was delicious. My partner had brisket and it was also delicious. Super tender with really good flavor!
Note to self: go eat at The Cookhouse more often!I haven’t had a cheeseburger that good in a LONG time, and my wife loved her pulled chicken BBQ sandwich. The desserts (a lava cake and Oreo Pie between the two of us) were fantastic.Pricing is more than fair for the quality you’re getting, and you can’t beat the atmosphere inside.Highly recommended.

What a great experience! Our server, Sean F., was super cool, Semper Fi Sean! The food was delicious, the beer was delicious and inside the restaurant reminded my wife and I of our favorite show, Yellowstone. If you want great barbecue check it out!
Nice atmosphere, went for lunch. I had chicken fajitas (I’m not a huge pulled pork person.)They do have a nice menu selection for all types of eaters. The wings were great and so was the service from the friendly attentive staff. Would recommend
Good food and great service. Would totally come back
The Cookhouse Restaurant reminded me of a local eatery i really like, Holy Smokes. Their was really good, especially their baby back ribs. Their andouille sausage is unlike the one I'm use to, but still tasty. Two thumbs up.
Best BBQ in town. They smoke the meats real good here. Service is very good with a pretty decent bar. I will comeback for more comeback sauce
