50 Best Bars near Mount Ephraim

“The food is excellent! Great daily specials!
Friendly staff!
Convenient location. Nice place.
One major recommendation: spaghetti with meatballs and beef with tacos.
Would be nice to get the beef going.
I believe that offering meatballs in addition to the chicken or shrimp with the pasta would be a good seller!
Kids would like also.
Recommend people to stop in!

Vegetarian options: Salads, spaghetti with no meat.“

“The food is delicious and quite affordable. My friends and I weren't even charged for soft drinks. Our young waitress was quite friendly, efficient and accommodating! The atmosphere was quite clean as well as enjoyable, with classic rock tunes to sing along to!“

“We plan trips to Philadelphia just to visit this amazing bar. We can’t oversell this…absolutely the best cocktails we have ever had. There are strict house rules for a reason and we appreciate that. Always a wonderful evening at Hop Sings. Leave your phones at home and enjoy the atmosphere and fine crafted drinks.“

“Tim is the friendliest bartender ever!!!!“

“So I had such a great time at this place it was super fun. The atmosphere was full of laughter, the drinks were super affordable and the bartender even gave my sis and I complimentary drinks. It was very diverse which I loved everyone was just having a good time, it was a night of complete fun. Also the Assman license plate is priceless I love Seinfeld“

“Killer cocktails! We will be back!“

“Friendly staff! Hostess was great as was our server. I only know she had a unique name. Not a large menu but what they do offer is amazing. Great atmosphere too!“

“Cool spot with options for everyone, including a large section of vegan options. Tried the vegan philly cheesesteak which was excellent. The vegan cheese was so goey and delicious! It was pretty busy when I went but my food came out fast.

Vegetarian options: You can get a variety of sandwiches from their vegan menu and can get regular cheese on a vegan item.

Dietary restrictions: They have a vegan section. You can also interchange for vegan cheese on a meat sandwich if you're lactose intolerant.“

“Cute spot for a drink. Interesting mix of drink options and prices were quite reasonable for the area. The seating is a bit limited but we were lucky enough to grab a seat right by the bar. Bartenders were super friendly and quick. Didn't get any food but the sandwiches around us looked interesting and would consider coming back to try these.“

“I haven’t been here in a long time but just went for Saturday brunch and was super happy with my experience. The cheeseburger was simple, yet perfect, and a steal at $6. The service was great, the AC was amazing. Pricing on beer/wine was also really good! I plan on making this a regular stop!“

“Went on a date night with my man and we had a great time. The food was very well cooked and seasoned. We got pretzels that were delicious. The mustard had wasabi so it was veryyy spicy and it also came with melted cheese on the side that I loved. Then I got the Schwab burger and it was delicious. My boyfriend got a salmon burger but he didn’t love it. I’m not a beer girl but they had cocktails and it was an amazing drink. I forget the name sorry! The service was great, Leo was our server he was very nice and we got everything we asked for in a timely manner. The atmosphere was nice, just loud on a Saturday night. There’s a shop to buy beer and a pool table. I think there’s an upstairs but we didn’t go up there. Would recommend for girls night, date night, and just casually getting together.“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“We just love our new family restaurant! We get treated like family everytime we go!!!! The atmosphere is so cozy and the staff is exceptional. And let's talk about the food - it's absolutely to die for! The portions during happy hour are perfect and the prices are so reasonable.

But the best part? Let me introduce you to DAVID! He's the star of the show - always attentive, funny, and he makes drinks like a true master! Whenever I go, I insist on being seated with David.

They made our anniversary so special and they truly care about their guests' experience. We feel so lucky to have this gem in the neighborhood. I'd travel far and wide for this level of excellence!

Oh, and I can't forget to mention my favorites: The Good Good Things drink, the Buffalo wings during happy hour, and the amazing cheesesteak! And my kids absolutely love the huge, deep dish, extra cheesy pizza.

We're off to our reservation with David - can't wait! If you go, make sure to say hi to him and tell him Mink sent you!

Almost forgot the fresh house made potato chips!!!! So so so good!!! Don't skip them!

Kid-friendliness: Always awesome and patient with my kids!“

“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.“

“food and drinks were great“

“I just joined Five Iron Fishtown and I love it. The location is great and I love the vibes of the inside. The hours are perfect as I generally go to use the simulators before work in the morning and work on my swing or play a round. I’ve also had a few lessons with Senior Golf Pro Matt Davis and I can already tell my swing has gotten better. With the technology they have and following Matt’s direction I feel like I’ll be performing a lot better once I get on an actual course. Highly recommend.“

“Great selection of beers you won't find on tap in many places. They also have an awesome vegetarian or vegan cheese steak!

Vegetarian options: Is an amazing vegetarian or vegan cheesesteak and a lion's mane crab cake style dish that I still want to try, among other attractive vegetarian options“

“Lots of Vegan options that are very tasty!“

“We love Sassafras. Drinks, food, service, music, vibe are all always on point. The impetus for this review is Carl specifically. When we were in last April we asked if he’d ever made a Ramos Gin Fizz. He had a moment of panic thinking we were asking him to make it. Then said if we come in on. Monday he’d make them. We went in on 8/19 and Carl was happy yo make them - we totally would’ve let him off the hook, and offered to help shake. I told him that one was enough but he wanted us to both have one. What a fun experience. Carl rocks!“

“Great atmosphere. Awesome staff. Of course, great drinks!“

“Our group had such a good time! It was my granddaughter's 12th birthday and we all had so much fun ! The staff was helpful and added to the fun ! We loved following the book and making our own potions ! The food was great, and the adult beverages were the best! These guys pay attention to detail and really care about your experience. And, of course the decor and atmosphere was purfect ! Thanks for a great day !“

“Great place, selection of spirits and the food is outstanding! Check out the bartender Eddie, that's my guy“

“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“

“great service and good food“

“Vegetarian perspective

Unique vegan options that are so delicious and really highlight the produce! (Instead of using fake meats etc). They have some great menu items and seasonal specials.

Well curated drink menu with cocktails, craft beers and wine.

Nice dining experience with more laid back setting since they do have a TV at the bar.
But still cozy, candlelight, etc. great date spot!“

“Awesome menu, great vibes and really tasty food. Must try this place.“

“Had a reservation for two here and I was running a little late because I had to look for parking (I would suggest taking public transportation) and they were very accommodating and allowing me to push back my reservation time to a half hour later. Once arriving, we checked in at the front desk and to the right of you are tablets where you can sign your waiver. I do love that this is a different experience however, I lack the upper body strength and aim to do this for an hour straight. I personally was fine with just a half hour lol.

I ordered wings and a drink. It did take some time for the food and drinks to come out. The food came out first and then maybe 20 minutes later the drinks came out that’s why I took a star away for service because it was such a long wait. And the place was not crowded at all. The wings were OK in flavor, I got buffalo and it wasn’t really all that hot. But they were doable.“

“Awesome!! Never had a bad meal!! Wine was excellent as well…friendly staff ❤️“

“The bayou basically birthed my child. I had their 25 cent wings every Monday and Tuesday leading up to my due date. I was actually in the bar when my water broke and the staff were so friendly and assisted me until my husband could arrive. Can’t wait for my little girl to try their food when she’s older!“

“I LOVE coming here for happy hour. They always have a good drink selection and it is usually not too busy unless there is a show nearby going on. I always get the thai chili wings, they are THE BEST wings I think I have had. I have also gotten their chicken sandwich and mac and cheese, which is amazing as well. I highly recommend visiting if you are looking for good food and drinks.“

“We got the miso Caesar, Italian hoagie, bahn mi, and which ever non alc fruity drink with the passion fruit in it. The miso Caesar salad was delish until I connected the smell to a memory which was ~vintage Tupperware~. I couldn’t eat anymore after that but before I had that thought it was delish. Sandos were amazing and the drink was yummy! Service was perf per usual.“

“Sam is the best! He was our ride share driver on a super busy Philly Saturday. We were looking for a place to eat and he happened to own a restaurant. He walked us in, set the table and gave us a discount! Food and service was just what we were looking for. We enjoyed the turkey sandwich, French onion soup, tomato soup crab cakes and grilled cheeses!“

“Such an amazing view of the city! But they had a very limited menu for food. I wish there were a couple more options. Also we went in October and it got a little chilly on the roof. I was surprised that there wasn’t any heaters or blankets available to make customers comfortable. There also wasn’t any fall drinks/ warm drinks, I feel like that was a missed opportunity. Overall a nice time, but a couple things could have made it better.“

“Bartender Bobby is great!!“

“Best bar in Philly. Kyle and the entire staff have been nothing but good to us over the years. Drink specials are great. New taco menu is fantastic. Live music and DJ nights rule!“

“A lot of people recommended this place for their burger, so I had to stop by! I got the curly fries w/ house ranch, burger and green light cocktail.

Pros: friendly and quick service, curly fries and ranch were amazing (only $5) and a very laidback atmosphere
Cons: the burger, while only $6, tasted a bit too greasy or like the grill hadn’t been cleaned in a while. The drink was also just alright, but I understand they’re a brewery.

For how inexpensive their food is, it’s definitely worth a try. I think I’d try their chicken sandwich next time!“

“I attended the Vinum Wines Slovenian Tasting & Meet the Winemaker event at Jet on a Tuesday evening. It was a fantastic experience! My favorite was the Grasavina Orange Blend.

Jet's GM Emily was so accommodating when I called in to ask about vegetarian options for the food pairing. The event was held out in their garden.

I can't wait to come back to Jet, whether it's for a tasting event or a visit to their bar.

Bonus point- it's a women owned business!“

“It’s harder and harder to find a good cocktail for under $20 in a big city. Poison Heart gives you excellent cocktails, great small bites, and an unpretentious environment in spades. Oysters and waffle fries hit. The Songs About Keri is a quaffable, less sweet version of a good margarita. The Goodbye Horses is a nicely acidic, bright redo on a classic Old Fashioned.“

“Service and food was amazing! Highly recommended“

“The pizza was phenomenal!!!.“

“Delicious happy hour appetizers and exceptional alcohol free drinks. Relaxing atmosphere outside and sports on the large screens inside.“

“Great recommendations by the bartender enjoyable food and electric atmosphere on Monday night - sax band were superb. To top it off super friendly to an out of town group“

“Good people and fun place to enjoy a couple beers, bartenders treat everyone like family.“

“I've made some of my best memories at Dr. Thunder Karaoke! Super fun way to spend a night, whether via Zoom or in person.“

“Great service, food and drinks. Dylan was our bartender and server. On point with everything, friendly and accommodating. We will be back!“

“Great fun! Awesome music, cool crowd. Great place to dance and celebrate life!! Yummy drinks!“

“what a great place with delicious drinks and a wonderful tour.“

“Cozy neighborhoods bat great staff. always going the extra mile for their customer's. rated mid level where the delight app could take them“

“Great food at a great price!!“
