“Hands down the best place in the area before a game, event or anytime. We take our kids and they love it. Do not sleep on the menu, it’s an amazing variety. Service is excellent every time. This is the place we tell all our friends to hit up when we are in the area. 10 out of 10!“

“Great bartender, incredible music selection and possibly the best burger in the city. Especially for the dollar it is the best burger. The beer list was absolutely incredible and diverse. Happy hour like everywhere in this town means two dollar off pints. Even on days like St. Patrick’s Day, they still are efficient and friendly at Fountain Porter.

Parking: It’s South Philly. You know what you’re getting into. It’s busy.

Kid-friendliness: Due to the neighborhood, there are kids around during happy hour, and strollers can be common“

“Love it and it’s eagles central“

“Music on South St. continues thanks to Katie and Tom from Milkboy South St. You know there is a very easy way to su0porrt Philadelphia venues. Show up“

“Easily the top taco spot in South Jersey! Javier was an amazing server who went above and beyond to make sure our meal was perfect. The choripoyo and classic steak tacos were deeply flavorful, authentic, and generous enough to leave us with delicious leftovers. To top it off, the Pomegranate and Mango mezcalitas were incredible. Highly recommended!“

“Great people!! Thanks so much Doug for taking care of us and letting us order in amazing cheese steaks you recommended! We will definitely be back my new/old-school nostalgic favorite stop any time I'm out in Philly! Great to meet some new phriends and phamily! Rock on🤘👍❤️💯💥“

“Great place Thanks for having us“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pudge’s Pub Review I had an amazing experience at Pudge’s Pub — so good that I went for both lunch and dinner! The food was absolutely incredible. The hoagie at lunch was hands-down the best I’ve ever had. For dinner, I tried the shrimp fra Diavolo, and I’m extremely particular about that dish… but this was a 10 out of 10. Perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and truly impressive. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back!“

“Had a fantastic experience at the newest PJs location recently. Plenty of TVs, the drinks were well made and the wings were plump. I'll definitely be back!“

“Love Solar Myth! We stopped in on a rainy Sunday evening to be surprised with the vibrant energy in the room. The bar tenders were playing Latin jazz LP’s during our visit & I was so pleased to be able to get a couple of espressos & 0% cerveza later in the evening. Ambiance was great, drinks were on point & affordable. Lovely space. Thanks!“

“The food was good. The atmosphere was great, the vibe was great and the price was definitely great. Now if you looking forward to social and mingle and find somebody, maybe not. However, if you want something good to eat and get a little buzz and not break the bank you great. I most definitely returning“

“this place is all my favorite things in one: wines, small bites, specialty cocktails, dainty foods, luncheonette, storefront with specialty curated stuff.

it’s farm to freezer to plate and we can buy extra from the store to take it home and eat it again!

⭐ loved the ravioli pasta sheet — the brown butter oily sauce paired well with the tiny pillows of ricotta. we used their bread to soak it all up.

wines were great too. knesis got the zweigeld (not my kinda wine, too much body-ady-ady). I got their specialty gamay collab with a local producer and it was DELICIOUS!

overall, my friend and I got ravioli, cheese board and 4 cocktails/wines totalling to about $55 per person!
what a sugar and carb filled meal!

service: was nice! servers were cute and buzzing around the tables — very busy on a rainy wednesday evening

atmosphere: cool vibey place great for dates! it is a little cramped. also didn’t realize it was first come first serve seating.“

“Great service! Great Food! Wonderful service! My daughter and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously! Such a friendly and kind staff! If you need a bite to eat in a relaxing atmosphere, check it out!“

“This is the best good thing that you could ever spend your time on! The atmosphere, the bartenders ( T.C especially) and the talent! The talent that strolls through here are not just talented but they are amazingly talented.. especially if you make a Wednesday night Open Mic hosted by the great Kelvin! And don’t miss Badass Barry on the Harmonica and a blues back acoustic guitar binge.. and then the dapper T.C slips into a double talent as a no joke musician also!
The place is so welcoming and so alive that you’d really miss out if you came to Philly South and didn’t check this Gem out ! I promise 🎵~M“

“Oh yes, oh yes! The Jambalaya, also the Sheperds Pie are wonderful. Drink prices are very reasonable and are served from a polished woodwork bar area. Check out Blaize’s inflatable greeter at the front door.“

“New Mike and John great friendly and interesting bar tenders. Burgers and fries bigger and better then pre pandemic. 2 thumbs up. Always interesting crowd and not pretentious. Good food and good service.“

“I love this Slice Shop! So tasty! I love the regular, the sausage, the pepperoni, the Mootz, Jake's, Freddy Prinze, Hellboy.“

“Went here for my first-ever noise show, got there early, and had a great time. The hotdogs hit the spot, the drinks were great, and the staff and other patrons were all incredibly cool. The staff even covered my drink for me when I stepped outside for a smoke. The show was a night I won’t forget 🔥“

“8/18/2026
It seems like every nook and cranny of Philadelphia is stunning and this place didn’t fall short of the agenda. I just stopped in for a little drink which happened to be a refreshing sangria and a minute to rest my feet. The outdoor area was just as nice as indoor. The food cooking out on the black stone smelled amazing I wish I had ordered, they had ice cold water to accommodate everyone and some umbrellas at tables.“

“Probably the best and only $4 sandwich I’ve ever had. The menu feels like you’re taking a step back in time with the prices. It’s a dive, don’t expect gourmet. Service is great, food is great, and we will be coming back for a drink next time we are in the area.“

“We did a Sunday Funday at cake and kitchen. The food, service, and atmosphere for all perfect. Our waiter whose name was Colin was excellent. We highly recommend this location for cool drinks and a great menu.“

“Frankie and all the staff were fantastic. Met a few great local people too. Great to have a drink watch a game and a chat.“

“Great place for food, drinks, and hookah! My girls went here for a birthday and it was so fun and the music was GREAT! They even let us bring our cake, and request a song! If I could give more that 5 stars I would! Amazing place and we will definitely be back!“

“First time here. We are so glad we came here. The mussels, wings, spinach artichoke dip, the drinks, and santa fe egg rolls were SOOOO GOOD. We absolutely loved the food. We will be back!! Clean, nice, definitely a new go to spot!“

“I find it an awesome place to sit outside with great drinks and a great happy hour especially the nachos just wish they added chorizo on the nacho’s for happy hour. Nice to relax here last night was the Phillies game and it was great👍“

“Als Touristen sind wir ohne große Erwartungen ins Dirty Frank's. Wir wurden im Prinzip am ersten Tag schon als Stammgäste angesehen. Ab dem zweiten Tag, fühlten wir uns auch so. Absolut super Service, sehr nette Menschen im der Bar. Coole Jukebox, günstige Getränke. Sollte es uns jemals wieder nach Philly verschlagen, wird Dirty Frank's Bar das Erste sein, was wir besuchen werden.“

“Wasn’t sure what to expect but everything was amazing. Very clean and updated and great service!“

“This is truly the best kept secret. This place rocks, darts, pool table, great atmosphere, and the porch is awesome. specially during a storm!! At 1st it looks like a house, but when you enter, it's a great place for happy hour and like a "CHEERS." Bartenders are awesome and the food is actually simple and decent. I love how you can go off the menu items and order what you want. If they have it, it can be done!“

“Great food deals on the happy hour menu but I wish they had some more drink options. I believe it was discounted drafts and marg pitchers which are great but I was by myself before meeting up with friends so I didn’t want to get a whole solo pitcher even though it prob would’ve been worth it lol. Otherwise love it there!“

“It was a pleasure today to see Ethan behind the bar today! He smiles hes great! I know him from new wave! So I was so excited he took care of me today! This place is the best all the way around… The best part about it is when you come to the bar they have a VHS tape playing and you never know what it might be! Hands down one of the best places to go to on 2nd Street! ❤“

“Came here for a quiet drink after hearing it was good value. It was certainly busy, but the cocktails were well-made for what you paid. A good option if you're looking for something affordable that doesn't skimp on quality ingredients.“

“I came here years ago and was always getting the fish bowls. When I went today (12-7-2024) they no longer make them and I was disappointed but I got a vodka & OJ and a Long Island ice tea. The kitchen was closed but I have tried their seafood platters. I love this place. An older crowd and no riff raff. I’ve moved closer and that makes it better. Robin was a GEM.“

“Had a ball always a turn up spot the food was great them fried shrimp hit different shout out to the Sunday Chef ice cold non alcoholic beer the bar staff is great love them they all they the bomb and the owner don't take no mess when it comes to drama he put you right out at the drop of a dime“
