“A must try hidden gem in the neighborhood. Unique Belgian beers and stouts. Must try the Hercule Stout if you have beef of any kind. Don't underestimate the vegan seitan sandwich. Packed with umami flavor and very satisfying. Wife had the Steak Frites salade and really enjoyed it. Dessert was the lime pie - very tart and very good.“
“Friends dinner out on a rainy Saturday. Our Mr first time to Noir since the Pandemic. It's even better than we remembered. Same comfortable, relaxed, neighborhoods atmosphere. Same warm and welcoming service. And the food is inspired. Particularly good: broccoli rabe with sausage and beans starter, arancini, gnocchi in mushroom gravy, short rib, and (amazing) spaghetti with crab sauce. Desserts were fresh and especially tasty. Great evening!“
“If you get an opportunity, you must give Monahans a chance. My favorite cheesesteaks, even a chicken cheesesteak with fried onions, sweet peppers, and bacon, it will have you talking to it, lol. There are plenty of spirits to choose from, and the beer is always cold. Some vegetarian options. Delish apps and the app pretzel with their honey mustard is phenomenal. Safe, comfortable, clean, and great people. Non-smoking, but you can on their outdoor patio, which is heated during colder weather. TV's everywhere.“
“I was in Philly with my boss and a colleague for an industry event. They were asking for a place to go for a bite and a beer. I asked my daughter who is local for some recommendations and she recommended Good Dog Bar. There are many great restaurants in the center city area, but this one does a great job. At 6:30 on a Monday, the place was quite busy. We were able to get a booth. I didn't see any tables for large groups downstairs. Most of the bar area and tables were full when we started ordering. The beer selection is diverse and prices are reasonable. For my main dish, I had to try to vegan Philly Cheesesteak. You might say that this is quite blasphemous being in Philly and doing vegan. I'm not sure how they did it, but it was very tasty. They also have some awesome fries with it. As far as parking, find a lot or garage or it's better to use mass trans or bike.“
“what an incredible refurbishment of a classic center city building!!!!!! the bar staff was great in every possible way including both johns and the beautiful young woman who was working with them on thursday night!!!!! the beer and booze selection is above reproach and just one piece of advice... if you like or love tullamore dew, don't drink the honey version“
“Perfect neighborhood gem. Gastropub food is just delicious. Wide variety of food options as well as a terrific beer selection. Through the pub and then a doorway into the "house" next door is a very cozy two floor (maybe three?)experience, a house turned into an eating area, also a surprise pinball machine corner and televisions on both floors. Very unique, very comfortable. You just want to hang there all night as if it were your own house. Love it“
“Pat, the man!! First time there tonight and came due to closeness of location and reviews… but blackened chicken salad and wings to go were both A+Pat’s presence and convos were representation of what a local bar should be! When you walk into a bar and don’t feel awkward to hang by yourself and enjoy a moment… this is the place to be. I will be back soon, thanks for a great time!“
“I couldn't wait to write this review after eating our delicious take out. We got cheesesteaks truffle fries banging shrimp and the Gibbstown famous mozzarella sticks. Everything was amazing! I'm so full I couldn't finish all mine so have some left for a snack or for tomorrows lunch. Thanks LOCAL for giving Gibbstown a true place to get great food. In my opinion you get what you pay for and this food was on point! We will be back many times!!! (I hate cooking lol).“
“Best little local pub just off Passyunk. We dropped our grandchildren off after having them over the weekend, and stopped here to grab a bite to eat and a cocktail before heading back to New Jersey. I had Poutine and it was amazing! My husband had a brisket sandwich with a Brussels' sprouts. We will definitely be back!“
“On my first ever visit to Philidelphia, I chose to try this place (the nachos looked good on the online menu). When I walked in, the place had an intriguing atmosphere. It was self seating - I didn't see the menus on the table, and the server noticed, so, he grabbed me one and brought over a water, before I even requested anything! I ordered the Nachos with the spicy (not hot, just flavored with spices) chicken - it was So good and the bowl was suitable for 2 or more to enjoy. The plating was intriguing! It was Delicious! While I was eating, the server made me feel welcome, joking that I wasn't the Only one who didn't notice the menus (another party that came in missed them, too!). I returned afew days later with my husband, had to show him some of the city and have him try the nachos - we both Inhaled them! Despite a Large party being there, the server came right over with waters, got our order and had it brought out quickly. We were impressed with the service, despite the large party. I Highly reccomend this place! Try the nachos!! The giant pretzels look delicious, too!“
“Step into Booker’s Restaurant & Bar and be swept away by a symphony of flavors that dance across your palate! This West Philadelphia treasure is a culinary haven where comfort food is elevated to an art form. Imagine sinking your teeth into creamy grits paired with succulent shrimp, or savoring the sweet and savory bliss of cheesecake french toast. The fried chicken and waffles are a crispy, golden delight, and the burger with cherry peppers and caramelized onions is a masterpiece of taste. As evening falls, the menu blossoms with heartwarming dishes like jerk oxtail, seafood mac and cheese, and a creole vegan jambalaya that’s a vibrant tapestry of flavors. And let’s not forget the Happy Hour—a festive time where laughter mingles with the clink of glasses, offering $6 cocktails and irresistible fried chicken sliders. Booker’s isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience that leaves you yearning for your next visit!“
“I definitely recommend Wolf Burger! I got Fries and the BBQ bacon ranch burger and the flavors were out of this world! Roll was great, the cheese on the burger was melted perfectly, and overall the burger had a really unique flavor! The black and blue burger was super good too! Super happy to have tried this place and definitely will be back!“
“Nothing can go wrong woth the seitan wings at 9pm after a movie at the PFS bourse. The place is always comfy thanks to its decor, has a great selection of beers ans their food never disappoints. The music can be loud sometimes but not to the point of making me go away.“
“So happy I happened to stumble into this place. The neighborhood bar this area was lacking! Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu haven’t had a bad item yet. Usually get the boneless wings. Kelline is one of the nicest people and bartenders you are ever going to come across.“
“I actually do not usually do restaurant reviews, but was so please with Con Murphy that I felt like I had to share. I feel like there are many restaurants in Philly, and this one deserves more attention. We were day-tripping Philly and enjoy seeking out the local Irish pubs. We were charmed by the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere! It was noisy and small, in a fun and happy way. The TWO bars were well-stocked. We came with the family and everyone was pleased. We started with the Parmesan Truffle French Fries and they were exemplary especially paired with the Aeoli. The blackened Grouper sandwich was "sublime" according to my son who works at a restaurant! My daughter didn't prefer the crust thinness of the flatbread, but enjoyed the potatoe soup. The Irish fare was well done. My son ordered the shepard's pie and my husband and I both ordered the beef stew. I am picky of "Irish Food" bc so many places do not give it the attention it deserves, but everything was prepared beautifully. If you like very rich, decadent broths and hearty, meaty portions, then the stew is for you. The bread it was served with was unbelievably flavorful and had a tender center and crusty exterior. The stew tasted like it had slow-cooked for hours and did not dissapoint. I ordered the "Tullamore Gold" cocktail and it was a tad sweet, but flavorful. I wish I had paired a red wine or whisky with the stew. My husband had a canned apple cider which was tasty.“
“Ten Stone is my favorite neighborhood bar for watching the Sixers games. The bartenders and the people at the bar are very friendly and knowledgeable Sixers fans. Despite the Sixers game being on the bartenders keep the drinks flowing. My glass never sat empty for long. When it comes to food, I'm a sucker for anything with truffles, so I love the truffle popcorn. The cheesesteak eggrolls are also a great rendition of that dish. Crispy outside and plenty of meat and cheese inside. The chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun is also good. The chicken needs to be a bit juicier to take it over the top. The gumbo is also a good dish that will keep you warm in the winter and remind you of New Orleans. Unfortunately, the mac & cheese is terrible. As long as you avoid that dish you will have a good time at Ten Stone. If you come during a Sixers game you never know when you might see me at the bar.“
“Pub food at it's best! We went after a Drexel U Preservation Society presentation at The Olde Swedes church. They had a St Patrick's Day menu available that we ordered from. I had the fish & chips & DH had the beef stew & a Guinness. Yum!! Just what we were looking for.“
“This was my first time visiting this Pub and restaurant, I visited around dinner time an overall had an average experience. The menu had both an American and Irish flair, the sandwich and other food I ordered was okay, but unremarkable. Right in the neighborhood again and wanted a lunch time menu I might visit again, but I don't think I'd visit again for dinner. The atmosphere was fairly typical of a public house and otherwise unremarkable“
“Love the food and staff here! We are always welcomed even though we are out of towners! We've tried most items on the menu. Get the burger! It's seriously one of the best! The Philly cheesesteak egg rolls are also a must! Beer is cold! Food is solid! You really can't go wrong! We stop here every time we are in town and make a special trip if it's St Patty's Day!“
“Attended a funeral luncheon for my best friend's father. Food was very good and wait staff was very attentive and helpful. My first time there even though I grew up in DELCO and just a few miles down the road. I'm sorry I missed out for so long!“
“my daughter came in from Miami to see the Phillies play last night was an awesome game today we will be checking out South house I hear it's the best spot in South Philadelphia so I will be coming with my daughter and my son go Phillies hopefully we'll win today and on to the World Series looking for a great bar good people good food and no Riff Raff see you soon !!!“
“Pappou's for the win. Everyone in there is so nice, they have a great bar with the best beers and make tremendous pizza. Well located too. Nothing but positive feedback for Team Pappou, keep up the stellar efforts. Also love the logo of the turtle, you guys are the best. Let me know when you get t-shirts back in stock!“
“1st time there and was pleasantly surprised. It was like walking into an episode of Cheers. Joe and Melissa made everyone feel welcomed. They greeted people by name or if they didn’t know you, they talked to you like a friend. What a great place to eat and have fun.“
“Last Saturday was my first time there seem like a cool place I didn't actually go in we're on the balcony the whole time but we got their kind of late so maybe next time we'll see the local band sounded okay from food was good... a lot of drunk people “
“Stopped in for a quick bite. Quick seating, great service from the bar staff at the high tops. Loved the French onion soup. Just what I needed to take the off the cold of the night. Solid pours, good music. What you'd expect from the name, honestly. Place starting filling with a younger bar crowd about 9:30.“
“A Philadelphia & South Street landmark, family owned & run for half a century, this place has so many fun activities or just sit & enjoy a diverse, exciting beer list. Great food & excellent friendly service round out your experience.“
“This restaurant is my first choice place. Of all restaurants I know I favor it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to visit this restaurant. when I want to go to a good lunch, this place comes instantly to my head. best and varied food and a large list of dishes.courteous staff members, and pleasant mood. Not less important, the expence is decent. I suggest this restaurant with no doubt.“
“I usually go into bars like this with low expectations because they're unwelcoming to people who aren't regulars. But i was greeted with a warm smile and great service. The lady behind the bar was very kind and helpful and i really appreciate that.“
“Small little Irish bar downtown. It's narrow, but there is a second floor with a pool table and dart board for your enjoyment. The service is efficient and friendly. If you're looking for a laid back place to grab a pint, stop by.“
“It's a pretty pretty good happy hour with half off drinks. But last time I was there the bartender took so long to give me my check that I left a five and walked out. I hope I left enough. Oh well if I get banned, there are so many other bars that I won't be disappointed.“
“I love this place. The food is great - I had ricotta ravioli in brown butter sage sauce - delicious. Friday and Saturday nights can be crowded with a great mix of people - but they do have a side room in case the energetic mood is too much.“
“It's a great place to either grab lunch or dinner or watch the game with your family and friends. Staff is on point, very polite. Food is just amazing, prices are very reasonable for the amount they serve. Parking lot across the street from it. Outdoor service is available, weather depending. I highly recommend that you stop in and enjoy yourselfParking: Parking lot is directly across the street from the VicWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp“
“Great Irish pub! I've gone there numerous times. I've enjoyed the Mac& cheese, Chili, Fish& chips, Roast Beef sandwiches along with their certified pour Guinness pint. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is happy.Parking: The parking lot is in the rear and has about 25 spots but I've not had trouble parking for lunch.Wheelchair accessibility: There's an ADA ramp from the parking lot but there's only 1 handicap parking spot.“
“Great place but they don't let me drink here anymore cause last time I was here I drank away all my money and resorted to licking the last few drops from people's empty mugs after they left. Bartender said I was the 2nd worst Alcoholic they've ever seen there.“
“Pretty good selection of beers and there are more than enough TVs to tune in to watch whatever local game you’re trying to catch. I think the service could be a bit better but other than that, it’s a fine little watering hole for locals.“
“Ya'll if I could give them a higher rating I would. First, the bartender was great he knew the food so well and explained what was the best. My partner and I are vegetarian and vegan and he was patient and very knowledgeable about how the food was cooked and tasted. We have tried a lot of veg food in Philly and typically it's pretty good . But, this one was by far the best bar food. Their Reuben was fucking phenomenal. I grew up eating meat and seriously this tasted liked home . They marinate it and smoke it like they would pastrami. The combination of all the ingredients were delicious. We also ordered the veggie burger and it we good and hardy. It was made with kasha root. The outer crisp added a great texture to it.“
“My last last review of Grace was in 2015 and it's time for an update. I've been here a few times in 2023 and this neighborhood bar has really stepped up its game. The service is now outstanding, with friendly bartenders who make you feel welcome and serve great cocktails. The fireside chat is my personal favorite cocktail. You can still get a great bacon cheeseburger here, called the Tavern burger, cooked to temperature with the bacon covered in a generous portion of melted cheese. The chicken tenders are the best in the city, and pair perfectly with a bourbon mayo. I will get them every time I come here. If you live close by, Grace Tavern should be the neighborhood bar you frequent.“
“I was trying to go to another spot to grab a bite but their kitchen was closed. That’s when I stumbled upon Station Tap. Small, quaint but a gem.I ordered two of my favorite items: nachos and garlic parm wings. With nachos it is all about the cheese and their homemade queso was creamy and tasty. The wings were loaded with Parmesan cheese and garlic. Portions were good that I had leftovers. Had the lemonade and it was good as well. I know, lemonade is lemonade but it was different from the norm and good enough for me to highlight.Service was great as well. My server gave me recommendations and food reviews for my selections. She checked to make sure I was enjoying it and the team worked as a unit to make sure my requests were tended to due to blind spots.Grateful I found this gem…I’ll be back“
“This place is my preferable place. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this place. when I want to go to a good meal, this restaurant comes straight to my head. Great and food and a large menu.well mannered staff members, and great vibes. Also, the price is affordable. I recommend this place with pleasure.“
“Great place, great people. Gathered there after two funerals in the last 4 months and they're set up was outstanding. Food was fresh and delicious. Also have been there for anniversaries and birthdays and graduation parties. Family atmosphere everyone knows everyone else.Ken JefferisPhoenixville, PA“
“The menu was very limited, not what's on their website. We got our food to go, mozzarella sticks and fried shrimp with fries. Everything was good, service was quick, staff were friendly. Mostly fried bar foods, only vegetarian options was fries and mozzarella sticks.“
“If a dictionary had pictures and you looked up bar, it would be this. What that means, the prices are good, the service was friendly and accomodating, food is middle of the road, atmosphere is non-existent except for the quality of the people around who were all very nice. Oh and perhaps most importantly, there is a pool table ??“
