The food was really good, the drinks were amazing (they had the best piña colada I have ever had, and I'm old), the atmosphere was fun but not loud, and they had a mariachi band playing at tables the whole time we were there on a Sunday night in a snowstorm. We left very happy! Thanks for a tasty and memorable dinner! We will DEFINITELY be back!“

“I'm on vacation from Canada and went out last night with my cousin and ended up at this place. This is not somewhere.I would normally go but when in Rome.... At first when I walked in it reminded me of a bar that I've seen on Tubi and guess what.... I loved every minute of it. It was ladies night!!! The bartenders were friendly and quick.
The music was great and them drinks were amazing. Never really been a fan of the lemon drop, but they made me a fan last night and let's talk about the $8 Patron shots. Yes, please!!!! All good vibes, the whole time. Shout out to the birthday girl!!! 🥛🥛🥛🧉🧉🧉🍸🍸🍸
Oh, and the chicken wings are so good. Definitely a 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 vibe!“

“George’s Bar in Claymont is another great no-frills dive bar done right. Cash only, cheap beer and liquor, and fast, friendly service at the bar. Exactly what you want from a true local spot.

The vibe is very close-knit with a lot of regulars, and everyone is welcoming the moment you walk in. It feels like a place where people actually know each other and are happy to have you join in.

If you’re looking for an authentic neighborhood bar with good prices, solid pours, and a laid-back atmosphere, George’s is a great choice.“

It seems a little quiet and weird when you pull up because its a very hidden bar and its a little hard to tell if it's open, but once you get inside they have great music and very nice bartenders.

“Walking into this Trolley Square gem feels like a warm embrace! From the moment we stepped inside, the welcoming presence of Jacquline, our host, guided us to a comfortable table tucked away in the back. Her genuine friendliness set the perfect tone. Shortly after, the delightful Katie became our server, her pleasant demeanor immediately putting us at ease and smoothly starting our culinary journey. The menu boasted a tempting array of options, and we eagerly chose the kale Caesar, cornbread, and brisket mac and cheese to begin. Oh my goodness – each starter was an absolute revelation! For our main courses, my wife savored the delicate lamb gnocchi, while I thoroughly enjoyed the perfectly cooked salmon. Neither dish disappointed; they were both executed flawlessly. A thoughtful touch was Katie finding me a delicious non-alcoholic beer, a real treat since I don't drink. To conclude our exceptional meal, we shared a lemon pound cake that was simply divine. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to this wonderful spot in Trolley Square. Everything, from the ambiance to the exquisite food and the extraordinary service, was truly on point.“
