“..I'll just say that I'm always pleasantly surprised at how solid the food is here for how inexpensive this place is. I appreciate this business and restaurant. The St Pattys day fare we had here just a week before was so satisfying as well. (pics to be posted) 1st spring season in the neighborhood. So far, so good keep up the great work. Will continue to bring my friends and family here and spreading the good word.“
“My boyfriend and I split the Loaded Pork sandwich and The Dave (BBQ Pulled pork with Crisp Bacon and a smashed Mac & Cheese ball!). Both had tender meat and came out hot.The Dave: A TON of meat on this sandwich. Just the right amount of BBQ sauce on the meat. Served on a round roll. The Crisp Bacon added a nice crunch. Make sure you are hungry, and ask for extra napkins!Loaded Pork Sandwich: The roasted pork was seasoned nicely, complimented by Roasted Red Peppers, sauteed Spinach and a generous amount of Provolone Cheese. The pork had a nice flavor and was juicy. Served on a long roll, which was very fresh.I also ordered the Brussels Sprouts, which were some of the best I have tried. Roasted in garlic and butter, with parmesan. Some nice crisp pieces as well. A decent serving size - enough for two people to share. I would order these again!!For a treat we ordered the Bread Pudding Bites. These were phenomenal. Enough for 2-3 people to share (maybe even 4 if you each just want a few to taste). Cubes of Bread Pudding that are Deep Fried and sprinkled with powdered sugar - very tasty! Dense like bread pudding should be, but with a funnel cake vibe. They were fantastic as they are served (The bread pudding is flavored well and perfectly moist), but next time, I want to order these with a scoop of Ice Cream which would take the dessert to the next level.Overall Experience:Service was on point (never had to ask for my water to be refilled), and the food came out Quickly. There is a nice Variety to choose from - something on the menu for everyone! Clean restaurant with a Modern Vibe. Great spot for a work lunch or sit-down dinner with family. Lots of Local Beer on tap with plenty of space to sit at the bar as well if you are into the drinking scene. Filling meal and a great value for the amount of food you get. I will be back next time I am in the area for sure.Thank you for a great meal!!“
“Came here for the espresso martini crawl and would come back for a regular meal. The staff was friendly and approachable. The Hugh Hefner espresso martini was a unique twist, at first I wasn’t too sure about it, but after the second sip, it was one of my favorites. Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.“
“Loved our Sunday brunch here. Came here after trying Nemi (their sister restaurant) & thought everything was delicious. Great service for sure & the food was super good. Waffles & strawberry cream were not too sweet & perfect compliment to our other two dishes. Will return to Port Richmond soon.Vegetarian options: They can taylor your dish to be all veg.“
“Awesome experience. Very clean, open and overall fantastic. The dogs had plenty of room to roam and were pleasant. Both the waitstaff and management were fantastic and the food is amazing. Best brussels sprouts I have ever had, and that should tell you about the rest of the menu. Highly recommend!“
“We went around the happy hour time. 4-6 pm and you have to be seated at the bar for the happy hour prices. The service was good, attentive staff. The food was good to my surprise. The crispy cauliflower and mushroom pita pizza are a must-try. The Thai chili wings and Buffalo wings were deliciously sauced, along with my margarita. The Smash burger is a must-try too. It was a cool laid-back happy hour spot. I will be back to try the rest of the menu.“
“This is my go to neighborhood bar. Service is wonderful and the owners are amazing. They know your name, remember your face, and make you feel right at home. Favorite food is the upside down pizza and tuna. Upbeat music and atmosphere. Highly recommend!“
“We had a good time here. Food was awesome. Our server was excellent. The only issue I had was the tipping situation. I was with a party of 6. We normally tip good. But this place takes out 20%. . I don't like a place telling me what to tip. That's not how that works. 80 dollars in a tip. Tipping how much is up to the customers.“
“As a vegetarian, I often struggle to find meat-free brunch options that can compare to traditional items. Sidecar Bar is the best brunch i’ve had in Philly! I got the Hippy Benny and it was PHENOMENAL!!! The ingredients were fresh and the potatoes were incredible. I went with a large group and some other favorites were the pancakes, the breakfast flatbread, and the Texan Benny. The atmosphere was fun and upbeat while still remaining casual and family friendly. Our server was friendly and attentive and it was all around a great experience! Definitely make Sidecar Bar your next Philly food destination!“
“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!“
“Not a Chiefs fan but stopped into this corner bar and had such a great experience! The owner, bartender and the locals were so nice! Was given a free burger because I was hungry and was backed up with a free beer from a local. I am so thankful for stopping in! ❤️“
“Cool table tennis spot. I attended an event here and there was plenty of food and drinks and friendly staff. Fun environment so I would recommend checking it out if you are in the area. If you are from out of town, there is a parking garage right across the street but it was $30 for 2 hours so just keep that in mind.“
“Great place with amazing cocktails. They have great Indian chai flavors martinis. A bit on sweeter side but must try. The bartenders very friendly and had a good time. Modern simple sleek interior! I think this is my new fav cocktail bar. A great addition to city specially to the area!“
“If you are looking for a great place with amazing food and customer service look no further. Chef Pat and the rest of the kitchen really put a lot of hard work and care into the food that they make and I can say I’ve never had a bad dish here. Then there is KC, Vicki and Nicole behind the bar and they are so attentive, friendly and make the best drinks! Honestly can’t say a bad thing about this place!“
“First, I only go when they have comedy night. Last Friday of every month..Visit AC Jokes to see more about the comics. For a small bar and grill, the food is great. Personal faves are the loaded fries and the meat lovers flat bread. Staff has always been attentive and respectful each time. Please be nice to your servers and food handles...“

“Went here for the first time and have to say was very impressed with the pool room, and bar. Service was great food was excellent, had karaoke going on in the bar it was very entertaining. Also met the owner very friendly nice guy. Will absolutely be going back..“
“We stopped by after the Philly Love Run for a much needed brunch. It wasn’t full and we had a nice table upstairs by the window. The bartender is awesome! He made a perfect spicy Bloody Mary and was funny and helpful. Thanks for making out lunch great!!The menu online isn’t exactly what they have (at least for brunch) but what we had hit the spot. The biscuits and gravy is a huge portion. Served with eggs and delicious crispy potatoes. My friend got the burrito sans tortilla. Also great. So glad we tried this place. Would definitely go back!“
“The staff was absolutely amazing, Annie was super friendly and kind. Our first time visiting Philadelphia and she recommended several places to check out in brewery town. This place has a great selection of beer and lavish cocktails. The food was amazing, I really loved the pork burnt ends. The pho was delicious, fish and chips were nicely battered and tasty. I will be back and I recommend you give them a try!“
“Recently renovated, a great spot for a dive bar, a few pool tables, plenty of TVs and the bartenders are great. If you're local definitely check it out. I've been there a few times and never had any issues and everything came out great and everyone was friendly.Parking: Definitely park across the street in the lot, they only have like 6 or so spots in front of the bar.“
“I visited on a thursday with my buddy who goes often. Being a workday night it seemed pretty active yet still a relaxed environment. Bartenders were very friendly and attentive, additionally the wings were great. Will definitely return.Parking: It is south philly so obviously parking is a bit challenging, but I was able to find plenty of spots about a block and half or so away.“

“Recently ate at this PJs, and had Dan as the server. His personable attitude and genuine demeanor made it a great experience. The cheesesteak egg rolls were delicious as usual, and wicked chicken nachos were incredibly delicious. 10 out of 10 would recommend.“
“We've heard about them and I think I've seen their billboard several times whenever I drive through. We were in the area and figured it's a good time to give them a shot.They have some really really good wings! I got just dry wings cuz I wanted to try more than just 1 flavor, so I got the mango habanero and their sauce of the month (slipped my mind unfortunately, maybe called Kapow?). So, if you want to try more than 1 flavor I suggest doing what the server suggested and getting dry wings with sauces on the side. My fiance got all teriyaki flaked wings. We also got the corned beef egg rolls, these came out hot and fresh, really good too.They have a pretty large drink selection from what I seen on their online menu. I got a sour so they get bonus points from me cuz you can't always get a good sour.Also, the staff were friendly and helpful.The music playing I also enjoyed as it sounded like a variety of music from what I recall. The music was also not so loud you couldn't hear each other talk.“
“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.“
“Sophisticated, Safe, Grown & Sexy is the first thing that comes to mind! Sophia's Lounge has become a community asset that is clean, fun and full of great people. Food and drinks are priced right & there's a great atmosphere for parties and events too.“
“Been here 3 times. First time I had Cheeseburger and fries ( Banging). Told a friend of mine, Hokey. He went 1st Friday in March. He said I was right.Second time I went I brought a young friend of mine studying for the Priesthood. I bought him a Burger and Fries of course I had a Cheeseburger. 3rd time was Wednesday, the usual. Got to watch some basketball talked to guys I never met about Sports, Music and Movies. I struck Gold. It’s around the corner from me. Told people in my building they’re coming often. If you’re in South Philly and going to a game stop in. Why pay those highway robbery prices at the Stadium and Ballfields for tasteless food. Or just go for no reason.Kevin GaGa won’t steer you wrong“
“Came here for a quick beer and enjoyed this spot. It has the feeling of a dive , so if you aren’t into that, this isn’t the place for you. I had their Green Rock Lager which had an interesting taste of bananas, but for the price was much more interesting than a typical light beer. Would definitely come back for a drink and to try the food.“
“Came here because we saw a friend post about it and we were not let down. We had the best bartender ever hands down. Some of the best wings I have ever had. That says a ton as I never eat bone in wings because I never like them. Drinks came fast all night. They had a game night which was really fun. If you are in the area I suggest stopping in. If you want an amazing bartender be sure to ask for Gianna. Girl is on point!!“
“Wait staff needs better training! Does not provide utensils when your food is delivered. Waited another 10 minutes after receiving food to get utensils. Serving warm beer, asked waitress twice for cold beer in the bottle and twice brought warm beer. So we decided to ask for a bucket of ice to put the warm beer in, brought out two glasses of ice!!!!!! Patio is filthy, tables with food residue on them. Patio floor hasn’t been cleaned in a long while. Smells like cigarettes!!!!!! Place was not crowded when we visited and bathrooms needed some real attention. Over priced for portions you get. Not the Kaminski’s I remember of days gone by. Probably won’t go back!“
“Great little spot for good food and service and the atmosphere was pretty good too (old small town bar kindly renovated). The Shepard's pie (only for around St Patty's) was the best we had dining out over the years. Awesome burger and shrimp app too. Service was spot on, just a nice experience overall.“
“Seriously, an old staple, simple, straightforward, no frills slamming porkroll egg and cheese sandwiches. The amount of porkroll you'll see them slice up is crazy.It's an old general store with old school candy not often seen around and Charlie's Chips in the nostslgic tins.You'll likely have met the owner without even knowing... everyone seems polite, which has served me. It's the tiniest kitchen and deli. Everything's tasted good.. soups, sandwiches, and deli foods.If you sit, you'll see one plate at a time come out, but it works here. Slow down, have a seat, and enjoy a good meal, good portion at a good price.Great place to grab food before or after a nice walk in Allaire parkTime forgot this place, but in a good way.P.S. Good is used a lot in this review... it's not mediocre.. there is just a goodness and simplicity to this place, and it's a pure compliment .“
“Very friendly staff and wonderful and attentive service. The food was wonderful and for what you get not a bad price at all. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the area for a nice family friendly restaurant.Dietary restrictions: For those looking for Gluten Free options they have a cauliflower crust pizza that you can get with an additional charge.Wheelchair accessibility: Has access for those in wheelchairs and perfect heights for those in need.“
“My son and I stopped in to watch at least the first half of the Eagles game because the snowstorm was coming and didn’t want to stay out too late. He had the chicken tenders and I had the garlic Parmesan buffalo wings. The service was great. the food was outstanding, and there were plenty of TVs to catch the game. Unfortunately, the Eagles were not so good. I definitely recommend this place if you like bar food and burgers. That’s the only thing I’ve had so far. Still waiting to meet Jaws“
“The owners, Jermaine & April, are super friendly & welcoming! The atmosphere was that of a neighborhood bar where everyone is treated like an old friend. The food was tasty & the drinks went down smooth. Will definitely be returning!“
“Been going here for about two years. Delightful neighborhood bar with great prices, friendly staff, good food with a rotating menu (always try the grilled cheese special), and a great tavern vibe. Pool upstairs (if you’re lucky enough to get there first). I’ve since moved out of the neighborhood to Point Breeze, but my friends and I still make the hike over to Watkins at least once a week because that’s how much we love this place. This is the stuff!“
“Treat yourself to this place, it's a mixed crowd with young and old alike. The best thing about this place is the food and the Margerita towers. The service can be slow at times but well worth the wait. I can't stress enough how good the sautéed spinach is, and I never even liked spinach. The salmon egg rolls are to die for and just wow. Go here and enjoy, the food the food the food. And did I say the food ????“

“Been here twice on a Friday night and food has always been fantastic. Only complaint is that they sat us in the non-dining room area side where a live band was playing. Very loud to the point it's hard to communicate at your table. We also had a child with us. I noticed there were more children on this side, so not sure why they decided to seat parties with kids on this side with the live band. My wife and daughter were also cold since it's more of an enclosed outdoor dining area with ceiling fans running in January and February. Will continue to come here, but next time I'll request the main dining room.Parking: Two parking areas. The smaller one closest to NJ-38 is a one way.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available with Crayons.“
“Bad service and this is for the owner, I left there upset because of an employee that you have who is in charge of the entrance. I do not have to consume alcohol to be in the establishment and sit down to drink alcohol to be seated and every person who asks me about that place, rest assured that I am going to tell him the bad thingPerson you have as an employee“
“Friendly atmosphere, good place to unwind everyone is treated like family. Good safe place to go to have a few drinks. Bartenders are friendly and accommodating. Weather your a New customer as well as regular customers everyone is treated with respect. Highly recommend if your looking to enjoy a night out. Food is great as well“
“Hidden on Samson Street between 15 & 16th Streets in Philadelphia, you’ll find 1518 Bar & Grill. Hitting at happy hour was a treat, an extensive appetizer menu is a treat for those who are indecisive like my beautiful wife. Simple things like Mozzarella Sticks, delicious Meatballs in marinara, Fries Pickles and a surprising Shrimp Tempura plate that included mushrooms, zucchini and apples. I this was near home, 1518!would be our place, the hole in the wall with class, Everything was so good.Now, the beer: Is there ever a big beer that may be a little too drinkable? Perpetual IPA would be on the list, hoppy and bitter, yet smooth and clean with a candied fruit sweetness making it very drinkable. I could crush these, but would regret it later.IG: @crafty_fireman“
“I had a backroom graduation party in May., perfect place for a party for a crowd of est.40 people. Shawn Murphy made sure we got it all set up right, W/ wristbands provided, the bartenders were fabulous. I would definitely recommend this place for private party's. Had a great time, thank yoh, Gary D“
“Ordered wings for take out, I devoured all 10 wings in less than 10 minutes thats how good they were also extra brownie points bc they didn't put celery in with my wings which I'm not a fan of.11/10 recommended absolutely fantastic wings“
“Great place for delicious soups, sandwiches and apps. Unlike so many places serving soup(s), Sam's is serving up a variety of the uncommon through soup season. The wait staff are very nice, it's clean and the atmosphere is sports bar usual.“

“My husband and I recently dined at Randall’s on a Saturday evening. The service was first class. Our waiter was extremely friendly along with management and the rest of the staff. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure we were pleased with the experience. The food was delicious and the portions were HUGE! I highly recommend the Veal Chop Milanese, it’s outstanding. And you can’t forget the best part, the incredible views of the pristine Legacy Club at Woodcrest golf course. We will definitely be back!“
“The staff at Riley's pub was absolutely fantastic tonight, a fired worker set up our work party a few weeks ago and didn't tell the staff. When we showed up they went out of their way to accommodate us, and we really appreciate their awesome service, food service and drinks!“
“Really nice staff they will do above and beyond especially the bartender Diana she has amazing customer service skills and one of the nicest bartenders I’ve ever met ! Front desk staff really helpful especially Jordan and Clarence ! This place is awesome for friends and family to hang out , bowl , eat really good food the honey hot wings are a MUST try here! All sounds great time if you’re looking for a cool bowling alley to have a good time this is the place would highly recommend coming and I know I’ll be back again !“
“The whole experience was amazing! Servers Brooklyn and Roz were attentive and very helpful! We went for breakfast and for a Sunday morning they were very busy, but throughout the meal, Brooklyn was very attentive, even though she was running between multiple tables. Roz was amazing as well! One of the children made a little mess, but she was very quick to help clean the situation, and offered plenty of help afterwards. The breakfast food I would say is typical Hotel Breakfast, but was still very enjoyable! I look forward to going back for lunch or dinner! Thank you Brooklyn and Roz!“
“We came in august and enjoyed ourselves so much we went 3 nights in a row. Everyone were down to earth, drinks were on point, music selection was dope! Even the owner came and spoke with us a few times. Karaoke was the first night we arrived and we had a ball ❤️❤️❤️To the owner... the crew from Upstate New York will be back“
“I love marathon for its stable and predictably good food. It is a great place to meet a friend for lunch. It is a bit noisy at times and can be hard to hear a conversation. I would also recommend making a reservation at anytime as walk ins have to wait.“
“Kid Rip has a decent beer selection, a great beet salad and sweet potato fries. A good place to come later at night after my work shift, looking for healthier vegetarian food.Recently they had Maine Brewing Co Little Whaleboat on tap, and where there is a Maine beer on tap, you'll see me lol. The service has been better lately. Cheers!“
