In Short – An eclectic collection of toys, paintings, statues and other collectibles line the shelves in the bar's cramped interior. A small stage, barely the size of a couple of pallets shoved together, holds a solo guitarist (or a four piece rock band if the musicians don't jump around too much). About half a dozen tables are scattered throughout the dark room, leaving many customers standing during sets. Thanks to its open-mic Tuesdays, this tiny space has become a springboard for fledgling Norfolk musicians. On a good night, when a local favorite plays, getting inside can verge on…

Screw this place
by relli018
Food is not bad, but how bad can you really screw up pizza. My issue is they overcharged me too. Well, to be honest, they charged my card for my bill and another different bill. I called the manager, who told me he wasn't the manager, and said a similar phrase as in another post, "The sorta things do sometimes happen." He went on to tell me he was too busy to help me cause he had other customers. Hey Jacko....you ripped me off. You have my money now why don't you finish with me before you go and rip someone else off?
The food is OK and the pizza is par quality, but REALLY greasy. I will never eat there again especially after reading several of these r o a c h comments.
- Pros: Food is OK
- Cons: Billing & Dirty

I miss the old Cogan's
by Norfolkites
I had been out of the area for a couple of years and was excited to be getting back to Norfolk, and my favorite haunt, Cogan's. Good grief! What has happened!? I went in there with a couple of friends for a pie and beers on a Sunday afternoon...hoping history would be favorable...it was not. The service, if you can call it that, was just wrong. Rude, borderline abusive, oh, and make sure that if you pay with a credit card you circle under and bold face the total and compare it with the other slip...a fifty dollar bill mysteriously became eighty! Where is, or what happened to Fillipowski? It was a tight place back then, but not now. Oh, and if you look real closely around the baseboards, you might see Cogan's new mascot. No longer the gorilla, it is now a cucaracha. For some reason CitySearch would let me write what I really meant to say ?
- Pros: local

this place is starting to stink
by privatemoon
What happened to Cogans? I have been working in this industry for ten yearsm an own my own restraunt. It seems they need to higher better waitstaff in the Ghent area. I was in recently with my wife, we ordered a pizza and a picher of beer. The beer was warm. And recently it seems we just get lousy service, they were not as attentive as they used to be. I give this place one star because for a unique place as it maybe it is not what it used to be. Lousy food, lousy service. lousy health standards
- Pros: food is just "ok"
- Cons: minimal parking, not lit well inside, rude waitstaff
