Me

Poor Phil's is a classic neighborhood bar. It has a warm and inviting feel to it. For the most part, it is devoid of alcoholics, barflys and weirdos, and for a bar in today's world that is impressive. The food at Poor Phil's is very good and the happy hour is outstanding! If you like seafood at a pub, go to Poor Phil's and grab a meal with a beer.

Wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, I came and spent $70 on seafood and the shrimps were so overcooked or burnt they cut open the roof of my mouth! I wasted my $70 and couldn’t eat for days because of the damage to my mouth

Came in for lunch on a Monday afternoon. Not too busy , easy parking, fast friendly service, and great drinks and food. The lobster bisque was creamy warm and cozy. It paired well with the Bloody Mary too !

Not the server’s fault but Management’s - we think. We waited over 25 minutes for a single order of chicken wings. We were then told the order was given to someone else. Why? No idea. Our server went and told the manager who just looked at our table and said (or did) nothing. No apology, not even coming over to talk to us- Nothing! Wow! It starts from management down and If this is the attitude of higher ups, then hospitality industry is doomed. Poor Phil.
