Bars near Somerdale

“last of the dive bars fun place cool bar tenders not for preps“

“Killer cocktails! We will be back!“

“One of the best Japanese hand rolls I’ve had in so long! I can’t believe this place exists in Chinatown. Everything was so tasty, especially the miso cod hand roll. We also liked the sweet potato roll as well. Somehow we liked the wagyu one the least. But overall, very remarkable place!“

“great service and good food“

“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!“

“I am giving Tattoed Mom’s all of the stars possible. The vibe is immaculate, food is spectacular, staff are top notch and it’s a super inviting place to hang out. Sunday craft night was amazing as well. Anyone on South St. needs to check out this gem. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Lots of Vegan options that are very tasty!“

“Yards is fantastic! Great food and great beer! Best brewery in Philly!

Bartenders are always on top and make sure they check in on you.
You have to get the chicken cheesesteak!! Pair that with a brawler and you're set!

Definitely check out Yards if you are in Philly or visiting.“

“food and drinks were great“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“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.“

“A neighborhood institution for good reason. The food is good and the feel of the the New Wave is enhanced by a nearly endless collection of autographed photos, magazine covers and LP jackets of both local and global sport and entertainment personalities.“

“My husband took me out to Philly for an early Mother’s Day gift. He said we were going to a “speakeasy” type bar in Chinatown but I didn’t believe him. When we got to an iron screen door, he was like this is it and I was like you got to be kidding me. The owner came out, asked my husband if he knew it was a cash bar took our ids then went inside. The owner brought back our ids then took us inside to a foyer where he told us the rules of the bar. Cash only, absolutely, no photography and no phones. If you need to take a phone call, you go back to foyer area or outside to not disturb people. We agreed to rules and went inside. The bar was dimly lit with candles on each table. The decor was amazing with pictures and antiques on the wall. We were sat at a table and given a cocktail menu. The cocktails were unique and separated by whiskey, gin, vodka and rum. If you need a light since it is so dim in the bar, they will bring you a light because they brought one to my husband. There were no beers on the menu so if that is what you’re looking for then this isn’t the place for you. We ordered our cocktails and they were amazing. Since there is no phone usage, you have more of an intimate experience with the person you are with because you aren’t distracted by your phone. We sat and talked while drinking our drinks. The owner came over and asked us about our drinks and how we were doing. We then ordered another round of drinks and continued talking. We enjoyed our time at Hop Sing Laundromat. Service was great, bartenders were great, owner was great, and the ambiance was amazing. This is a great date night spot for anyone who wants to enjoy a intimate setting with a cocktail or two. I would post pictures but again, No Photography so you would have to go in order to see it to believe it. You will enjoy this experience and not be disappointed.“

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

“It's my first time eating from this restaurant (I got take out) but I cannot find a single fault from the experience. Keep up the good work!“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Dope spot ....food great 👍🏾 nice vibes“

“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“

beautiful space. very nice staff. had some snacks i can't remember the names of but they were delicious !

can't wait to come back for a full meal.“

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

“We had not been to this restaurant since pre covid. The prior owner turned us off. All I can say is Wow! I’m so glad we decided to try again since it’s change in ownership over the last few years. Everything was great!! Food served hot and was good. The best was the outgoing and remarkable service by Marcy! Let’s be real food is a draw to come back, but those connections made are even greater that make people want to return. We will definitely be back and Marcy- keep doing what you’re doing!!“

“The Food here is phenomenal!! The best Blackened Chicken Cesar Salad on the planet!!! Trust me!!! This ain’t bar food!“

“Such a cool place to check out you're very friendly bartender and everybody that was sitting at the bar was really friendly as well so that made it that much better of an experience. Definitely a must check out. Just went again. Loveeee this place best bartender“

“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.“

“Sassafras is Olde City Philadelphia all the way with the signature drinks. The waiters and waitresses are all dressed swanky and the food is delicious. The Menu changes with the times and still stays classic like Restaurant & Bar. Candlelit tables and all the old finishings in the whole place. This place is 1st class all the way and reasonably priced.“

“I went to Bok Bar for a packed Making Time event on 4 July, and even at full capacity, it was 100% worth it. The rooftop views are iconic, the energy was high, and the space somehow never felt overwhelming.

A big highlight was the food partner during our visit — Gabriella’s Vietnam (July 2–27). Chef Thanh Nguyen, recently named a “Rising Star Chef” by Craig Laban, brought seriously authentic Vietnamese street food vibes to the rooftop. We had the BBQ chicken with chips and the shrimp salad — both fresh, flavorful, and perfect for a hot summer day. The mocktails and canned spirits hit the spot too.

Between the skyline, the music, and the food, it was a total Philly summer moment — and one I’d gladly repeat.“

“Service and food was amazing! Highly recommended“

“Love it here ! Food is so good and so are the people ❤️‍🔥 highly recommend“

“What a massive improvement on the use of space over W/N W/N Coffee Bar. Poison Heart is a low-key place, not trying to be the next big thing in the city. The bartenders and staff are all great and friendly.

They have a fairly limited and somewhat unique food menu, but if you're feeling peckish you should be able to find something.

The atmosphere is dark in a kind of romantic way. But it's also lively in a way where romance is not the dominant vibe and can be completely forgone if you so choose.

It's the type of cocktail bar where you come to relax, enjoy a couple drinks, and have some good conversations either with your friends or the people around you.“

“We had a great time on our date night! We visited on a Thursday evening and had the place mostly to ourselves. April was so friendly and helpful. I was truly horrible but had a great time regardless. The games were fun and it is a very cute place! The food was mid at best but not the reason we came anyway. the drinks were reasonably priced for being in Olde City.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Went there since 1974. I knew Tony Corrado that made the wing sauce. Greatest cook I have ever known. All the people including the owner’s past and present are like family.!“

“Love this place. Been going there for decades.“

“The pizza was phenomenal!!!.“

“Amazing selection of cocktails and the vibe is fun in the bar. We got the soup dumplings, chicken stir fry, and the shrimp tempura and ate and left no bites. A great intimate spot for friends or a date:) The service was incredibly efficient and nice.“

“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!“

“Amazing drag performers highly recommend“

“Great lunch special and good people“

“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 had brunch at StarBolt for Easter. Their brunch is a recent addition so it want crowded. Food was great. I had the breakfast platter which was very good, the bacon and the potatoes especially! My one son ordered the French toast which was delicious!! Our server was extremely attentive and interested in getting honest feedback!“

“Great food and Great beer&drinks Very cool old building . Great staff!!“

“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!“

“Old style neighborhood pub with great atmosphere and fantastic tavern food“

“Me and my wife stopped by for the famous wings with house made sauce, It was super packed, only reason for giving a four star for service was because you had to go to the bar to get a menu and ask for service.

But with understanding they were very packed. The wings were very good and I would make a trip back for sure.“
