50 Best Cocktail Bars near Ardmore

“Great selection of freshly prepared and innovative food. Would definitely recommend the Mushroom Flatbread to share. Their “Fish & Chips” was delicious and boasted unique flavor combinations. Service is timely, and the ambiance is quiet and relaxing. Would come again if in the area.“

“Recently started working in the area and have been frequenting Dan Dan for takeout. So far I’ve had four different meals, and every one left me excited to try another! So good! Big plus that the workers are so friendly, and I even get a text when my order is ready so I don’t have to wait. Keep up the awesome work, Dan Dan!“

“I love Char & Stave. Their cocktails are top notch! The space is really inviting. They host live music here and have trivia. It’s a good time here. It’s also a great place to grab a drink before heading to a show at Ardmore Music Hall.“

“The venue was almost perfect! It is well appointed, the bathrooms super clean. The set up was great. The bartender was awesome! She was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Friendly and efficient. Good parking, well lighted exterior. I would recommend this place any day of the week.Thanks.“

“Huzzah! This is my go-to place for the best Whisky in the Pottstown area. I'm not saying they should name a Whisky after me, but I am available for all marketing needs. Seriously, grab yourself a bottle of whatever their latest small batch is. You. Will. Not. Regret. It.“

“Absolutely absolutely a gem. I selfishly wish fewer people knew this place so I could spend less time waiting to get in lol... The drinks are amazing. The atmosphere is excellent. The speakeasy-style makes it very cozy and good for chatting with friends and having a nice time. This is definitely going to be my go-to place.“

“Hosted my bridal shower at Kiddo this past weekend and had a wonderful experience. Wyatt and the team could not have been easier to work with. They were so accommodating and managed everything so well. Everyone loved the food (seasonal, great portions, delicious), the cocktails were amazing, and the space is so cute. Highly recommend for events or even just for weekend brunch.“

“What an unexpected and delightful discovery Andra Hem turned out to be. Though my time there was brief—a stop for a cocktail before dinner—it left a lasting impression. The ambiance is dark, intimate, and richly decorated, exuding an understated elegance. Seated at the bar, I was treated to a custom cocktail crafted with impeccable attention to my preferences by the bartender. The speakeasy vibe added a layer of intrigue that drew me in completely, leaving me eager to return and explore more of what this hidden gem has to offer.“

“Fantastic place! Great beer selections and cocktails. The food was fantastic. We had the Coconut Shrimp, Fried Green Tomatoes to start. Then we had the Brisket Sandwich and my husband had the Buffalo Wings. The Brisket Sandwich was amazing...so incredibly tender, lots of flavor, completely falls apart with each bite. My husband was so happy with his wings. He was so happy that they were actually crispy and full of flavor. The staff is amazing. So incredibly friendly and provide amazing service. Amazing place highly recommend. So happy we tired this place ♡♡♡♡♡“

“Drinks are great! I stopped in with my son,they are doing a special (kids eat free) don’t know how long it last. The staff is friendly and helped me with getting my stroller out. I had the pastrami egg roll along with a salad( can’t remember what’s it called)but it was yummy.“

“Great food- attentive waitstaff.“

“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 !“

“Kind and Handsome server and delicious wine selection!“

“Very nice establishment I discovered it sadly after howl at the moon closed.... for its size it is close corners at times but still great I personally luv the low key lighting for the chandler's and high top tables around to welcome random goers :) last Saturday I came and the bartender made a great old fashion tonight I stuck with a basic drink ? with in 10 -15 second not making it up I was greeted and served ? absolutely worth coming again ?

Kid-friendliness: Friendly bartenders and front door host“

“food was exquisite, very interesting flavors and presentations
an incredibly fun and delicious evening
beautiful decor, welcoming atmosphere, attentive service
excellent wine list and cocktails

wish I could do 4.5 stars because the only ding is for the prices, which is more nyc than phl“

“1st time there and can’t wait to go back! Great atmosphere, customer service and outstanding food! Loved the variety and unique tacos. Highly recommend. 👍🏻“

“Manatawny is always wonderful. The staff behind the bar are fantastic and answer any questions you might have about the menu or the products they make. The cocktails are always great and I like the fact that they do seasonal menus so there's new things to try often.“

“I am a regular at Spin Philadelphia. I usually go and have a very good time. I enjoy the food, drinks, and the atmosphere. I recently had a situation where someone asked security to deal with me. I was upset and started acting up because I was being wrongfully accused. Even though my night was going bad, I felt better because of the way I was treated by some staff. The security guy with the bandana and the front desk ping pong player were very nice to me. They heard me out, showed me respect, and were very understanding of the situation. They assured me that I was welcomed back anytime. I really appreciated that. Thank you.“

“Had a few drinks here with the lovely bartender Alyssa(sp?!) looking out for me and showing me the good stuff. Of course fancypants mcgee here had to go for the most expensive cocktail on the list, but The Waldorf is absolutely worth it! (Tobacco Road and Bombay Moon were beautiful too don't get me wrong)
Next time I'm in the area I'll try a few of their enormous assortment of whiskey's, I counted like 170ish on the shelves, lord knows what goodies they have in their secret stash... well worth the trip ?“

“Not child friendly need more option“

“Having dinner with Leslie Smallwood-Lewis at Treble and Bass. Outstanding food and outstanding service!! Definitely five stars and five thumbsup!!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾“

“Came to the neighborhood to look at a rental unit so I popped in here for lunch. Staff was welcoming, drinks were inexpensive, the Angus burger was delicious. Bar tender was super kind and the other patrons we're super sociable. I will be popping back into this place periodically. Hidden gem ♥️“

“2nd time here & 10/10 love this place will be going again. We had a decent size party and they really killed it. Thank youuu to the wonderful staff. Will be returning. 🥰🥰“

“Truly the best DelCo has to offer. Their dishes are delicious and I’ve tried almost all. The produce is stunningly fresh and all the orders are cooked with care and to perfection. Both brunch and dinner are impecable. The drinks are next level providing Ridley Park with a neighborhood bar worth going to. A lovely dining room with many types of seating and an attentive and efficient staff round out the whole experience.“

“I definitely would recommend the Morris House Hotel. The staff were friendly, accommodating, thoughtful, and kind. The decor is historically beautiful and charming. Our mini suite was clean as were the common areas on the first floor. Thank you for a wonderful stay!! Your kindness was greatly appreciated!“

“The rare 5 stars I give- this place deserved it. I chanced on this place one day for the pizza... got brocciole pizza and spices, and potato pizza- outstanding selection and the best or as good as the best pizza I've had. Crust and flavor combination was perfect. I came back 2 nights later to try other dishes... I ordered gnocchi because this shows quality in a restaurant- I've had many bad gnocchi dishes- Alice restaurant was the most perfect gnocchi I have ever had in a restaurant. only home made is better. The texture was perfect and soft. spice perfectly blended. I asked to add sausage... made a perfect meal. The Gelato on top of the small tart was superb. they make their own gelato... quality is excellent. Anna, our server was outstanding. her people skills and customer service would make the owners proud to represent them. Only draw back was that our bar seats were a bit uncomfortable. it is a bit cramped in there. they need a bigger space. absolutely loved this place!!!!“

“This is my go-to spot for lunch and happy hour! Laura rocks! :)“

“Thank You, TMOMS Philly for being a part of my art journey since 2018. Love & Good Times, Always. Beep Beep !!!!“

“ecxelente servicio personal muy atento amable y te ayudan a seleccionar buena comida y bebidas 💯 recomendable“

“We had a good, not great meal here. For the price (which was considerable) we were definitely expecting a bit more. The cocktails were great and the service great, the food was a bit underwhelming. We went with the tasting menu instead of a la carte and found the dishes good, but not anything particularly special. They were very accommodating with an allergy which was very nice. I'd like to try the bar menu but probably don't need another dining room experience.“

“can't wait to go back hard to describe.. it was unique.. everything we ordered was so elevated.. 5 star service.. best dirty martini I ever had .. this restaurant is a winner.. get the cheese plate dessert“

“Amazing atmosphere with incredible service and great food! Thank you Bellini!“

“The food was fabulous!! Atmosphere was spot on! Love, love, loved it!!“

“An amazing meal! So flavorful! Thank you so much!!!“

“The atmosphere here is a lot of fun! We had an issue with our food and the manager and waitress both did their best to make it right. The drinks are tasty and the crispy calamari salad was delicious. The peanut butter chocolate mousse dessert was very good.“

“Very friendly service, very pleasant surroundings. Perfect place to stop and have a light nosh. There’s ciders are quite good, but on the dry side, which I especially appreciate. They also have excellent local wines and white snack snacks. Highly recommend recommended.“

“Get the brisket nachos , delicious ! Drinks we’re good , service was great , will return !“

“Let me start I did read all the bad reviews before heading over there so I didn’t have great expectations.However as a cheapskate and a craft beer lover especially searching for my lessor common styles of beer, I typically go by each bar and restaurant in airport and scan QR code to see beer selection and check pricing.Most places here in Philadelphia Airport straight rip off at 16 per pint, but when you want a beer you’re stuck. Anyway when I first approached the counter I was absolutely expecting to be poked since they didn’t show prices only beer menu.Luckily they had something for me that I was going to purchase regardless, A nice strong Golden at 8%.I was then blown away upon seeing I got a 20oz, normally higher ABV beers are served in smaller 12oz glasses. Any full pour of 20oz was only 10 bucks and I was expecting at least 20, left me room in budget to not only get 2nd beer plus a pretty solid hotdog and chips.Biggest plus was Connor the bar tender, was super cool and attentive, and then informed me I was safe to take my cup and walk back to my terminal, since I walked a fair distance just to check out all beer options.Lastly, unlike most other restaurants In airport it’s kind of obvious if your paying attention that their section is not owned and maintained by airport, as most restaurants have tables and chairs with chargers that kind of blend from restaurants into gates, so I kinda understand their right to ask people to patronize their business or ask them to leave, I was lucky to find a spot at the bar.Not excusing anyone ever treated rudely, and definitely not my experience.“

“Great Place! Great Food! Casual Atmosphere! Recommend!“

“Food was so delicious! Wonderful outside balcony seating! Great service? love this place!“

“The food and service were outstanding and the ambiance was perfect for our Anniversary dinner.“

“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“

“Thank you to all tonight! We were celebrating the impending birth of our grandson with his other grandfather! Our children are 1st time parents!! Christina was perfection, knowledge and sweetness all at once! Everyone treated us great! Thank you Christine for all your help! Looking forward to returning w/ the new Mommy & Daddy! Thank you all again. 3 excited grandparents!“

“Gorgeous location, great service, and most importantly the food is amazing. I fervently wish Irwin’s existed in my hometown as I’m sure I would become a regular. As it is, I will definitely be going back the next time I’m in Philly. The setting, on the 8th floor of an old school building, is extremely cool and aesthetic and they styled the space beautifully with lots of plants. The view is wonderful. I went with a friend and we shared a “girl dinner” of four desserts followed by pasta. I keep thinking about the gelato I had, which was flavored with sweet cream and topped with a layer of honey and a mound of pistachios. The sweet and salty combination was amazing. Another standout was the orange olive oil torte with a bay leaf-infused cream. The lemon pasta was simple with a depth of flavor and strong umami. The bathroom also gets excellent lighting for selfies. Highly recommend.“

“Good food and friendly service. Portion sizes are great for teens who love to eat!“
