Bartender and service was impeccable. Having worked in the industry previously for many years was a little interesting and noticed other customers being a bit frustrated by the hostess’ tonight lack of attentiveness due to being on her phone the entire time and not even glancing up while the bartender and server that were absolutely swamped got no assistance or teamwork, great experience overall but hostess was young and maybe new? Idk maybe could use some experience or retraining but everyone was nice and good service and will definitely come back again!

I love coming here! Food is always great, no complaints. Mel and Kim are the best, service is always above and beyond.

Feels like we order here at least once a week! Always great and friendly!

Nice place, very crowded and small, felt like people were on top of you the entire time. Overall decent place.

As someone who eats a sandwich for virtually every meal, that one I just had was top notch! Excellent service and great people.
If you are Black, don’t go to this place. A man started an argument with me and got in my face yelling and cursing at me. Some of the customers laughed and the staff didn’t say anything to him. Another guy walked up and accused me of being "aggressive" because I told the first guy to back up and put his hand down. As the only Black person there and only Black female… I felt targeted.

First off, I loved McCloskey's atmosphere. The open window, the lights, and the crowd were great, especially during the Phillies game. The problem came with the drinks and food. I ordered a Manhattan and it came in 2 glasses— the more normal martini glass, and whiskey in a double shot glass on top of ice in a beer glass. So then I had to mix together my own drink in a beer glass? The food was okay. The risotto balls were slightly overdone and the Thanksgiving Sandwich was missing the cranberry. My boyfriend and I both got sandwiches, which came with chips. Fries were a $4 upcharge. We both got a bag of Lays chips with our sandwiches. Last, I ordered one of their cocktail specials, the Cranberry Mule. It came in a short glass, not a mule mug. The service was spotty at best. Overall, either choose to be a pub with crappy food and serve Lays and beers, or choose to be a pub with a good menu that actually executes well. I wish the food/drinks were better because I really wanted to love it after I spent time in that atmosphere.

We are customers of McCloskey's for 25+ years; we'll come back. But tonight's service was atypical, frustrating, and highly avoidable...if the owners and managers would train their team and right-size their kitchen to manage their nearly doubled seating capacity with their outdoor dining area.
Several of the lowlights of the meal: waited 30+ minutes to receive our drinks, food runners carried water cups and food plates against their dirty shirts and then served them to us, entree Caesar salad with salmon served with appetizer without other entrees. We received app and requested entree salad be served with other entrees; we observed that salad was placed on shelf in bar area while we waited another 15+ minutes for remaining entrees. When served, salad was not tossed with dressing.
Food runner was sure to let us know she thought we were rude when we brought to her attention that how she served us was subpar, at best.
When bill came, not a single item was removed from the bill in consideration of the overwhelmingly poor service. We paid full tab and tipped 20+% in cash...not because of great service but because the servers, bartender, food runners and kitchen staff were only partially responsible for the failures of the night. This was overwhelmingly a failure of owners, leaders, managers who seemed more interested in profit over customer service.
