50 Best Beer Bars near Bala Cynwyd

“Delicious food, beautiful scenery, very friendly staff.“

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

“The cauliflower with hot sauce was delightful as an appetizer. The Mediterranean burger was nice but not as flavorful as I had hoped. The fries that came with it were done to perfection though. The beers on tap selection was smallish but a good variety of styles. Very clean place and the staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions.“

“Bad Brother is one of the best neighborhood bars and restaurants in Philadelphia. I love to take friends and family there for not only their selection at the bar and a delicious and creative menu, but the service and atmosphere are just what you need to feel at home while also enjoying your time out. Get yourself some wings, a burger, and a sausage sandwich! Add a Caesar salad that you won’t regret, either.“

“I would love to give this restaurant 10+ stars. Never have I had such delicious food. Every mouthful of every dish was pure heaven! This was a birthday treat for my friend. We shared 6 small plates. I don't know which was THE best one. We started with drinks. He had the King Vidi and I the Shadowboxin. Both were expertly made. We then proceeded to enjoy Roasted oysters,Satsuma Mandarin salad, Tagliatelle, Foie Gras, Grilled Prawns and Grilled Broccoli. Every dish was spectacular and seasoned well. The accompanying sauces were smooth and velvety. We ended sharing a Chocolate Caramel Tart. My only issue was being seated next to the entrance where it was drafty whenever a new customer entered. I want to come back and try another selection of small plates. What a wonderful experience
Highly recommend!!!!“

“I ain't a drinker I was told to bring some beer for the Cookout I was invited to this Beer Place here these people are quick in and out on the Money it's clean and they'll call the police if anyone decides they wanna hang out in or outside of the Property Making there Customers safe 5 Stars ?“

“I had a blast at Jaxx!! The food was so delicious and everyone who worked there had great energy!! Pregame was a lot of fun with great live music. Highly recommend Jaxx for friends and families needing a fun night or day out to eat and watch Philly’s sports!!“

“We had a great night at the Meetinghouse. Great atmosphere on a Thursday night. Place was buzzing. We had some super food, a small menu but perfect. Kinda like tapas if you want to share. Tried the mystery wine, a gamble that didn't pay off for us, it was like a fruit wine. Safer with the white. Staff and service were excellent. Friendly place and enjoyed chatting to some locals. Worth a visit and glad we searched it out.“

“Tim is the friendliest bartender ever!!!!“

“Let me tell you I had the best experience at Chestnut Hill Brewing Company. I had my rehearsal lunch there for a large wedding party of 18. Alex Prost helped me from the beginning of this process to the end. He was friendly, helpful, and so accommodating. He went out of his way to correct an issue with our order and I can’t tell you how much I appreciated that. The food was delicious and my party had a wonderful time! We will definitely be back to try more items!“

“great service and good food“

“Really solid brewery. We came here for a midday drink to do some work on a Sunday and it was super quiet. The space itself isn't huge but there are plenty of tables and table options. Bathroom area is quite large. The draft menu is fine, always on the hunt for IPAs and the 6 feet below was much better than the hazy IPA (the latter of which I didn't care for). Service was incredibly friendly and attentive. Easy parking nearby and overall a very accessible experience. We didn't order food but those that did smelled tasty. I don't know that I would specifically come back for the beer but if you're looking for a place to hang out it's definitely a great option.“

“We ALWAYS have a great time at Chestnut Hill Brewing Company. The atmosphere, the food and the people working there make it enjoyable. The management is exemplary, even taking time to come chat with patrons. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a night out!“

“Wow what a great place! Great atmosphere, good food & the best beer on tap!! Highly recommended!“

“This is much more affordable than Queen and Rook in terms of board game cafes. There weren't many food options that I cared for. And one of my mates that I came with got some very rubbery chicken. However they remedied that situation so service points went up. Not as many game choices as Q&R but still fun.“

“Had a rare date night tonight with my husband (we have a 3 year old at home) and everything was great from beginning to end! Our server Jess P was great! We could not have been happier with the decision to dine at Rosemary! Can’t wait to head back again!“

“Was there last night for early dinner and stayed to see the Eagles first TD. Food was fresh and extremely tasty. The vibe here is great. The service was excellent. Our server, Max, was very personable and gives very good recommendations. Max is not the only server like this. It seems to be the culture there. They have a lot of loyal customers. When we left the was a couple looking for a place to eat and watch the game. I quickly recommended Glory. If in Old City and near Chestnut and 2nd give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.“

“The good food here is really good. The Ponza was perfect and seasoned well. My husband had the crab ravioli with pesto sauce. I'm not even a fan of pesto but this was amazing. My baby who hardly eats anything, cleared a plate of spaghetti. The only issue I had was there isn't a changing table in the restrooms. The staff was nice enough to find a room I could change my baby in but just an FYI if you have little ones.“

“Stopped by Superior yesterday after a hot, dusty day at the Conshohocken Mill! Ran into your tasting rep and loved your product 💯👍“

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

“First time there. It was awesome. Burgers are to die for!!“

“Absolutely amazing food!!! I recommend this place! Stop in and see what they have!“

“I understand why this is a Philly institution… you walk in and feel like you’ve transported back in time! Handwritten menu on the wall with no prices, food being prepared right in front of you.

Finally stopped in for lunch and got a hot beef & cheese (sharp provolone). While I love the modern day sandwich shops with crazy creative combinations, nothing beats a high quality yet simple sandwich like this. Fresh meat, roll, everything about it hit the spot. Added a bag of chips for $1 (sandwich was $15). My friend got the turkey special and loved it as well.

I will absolutely come back in the future whenever I’m craving a roast beef sandwich!“

“Drove by Springfield Ale House a bunch of times before ever going in. We have been there twice in the last few weeks and I could kick myself for waiting so long to go in. Can’t wait to go back. Good selection of beers on tap and some excellent cocktails as well as a great food menu.“

“Wonderful Valentine’s dinner!“

“The Philly Cheesesteak I ordered here is probably the best I’ve ever had in this city. At first I thought maybe it was just a one off, but I stopped here a few times to grab a Philly Cheesesteak and it was still as good as the first time I’ve stopped here. Definitely better than Uncle Gus’ Steaks in Reading Terminal Market.

My only regret is coming here and discovering that nobody outside of Philadelphia can make a good Cheesesteak!“

“Omg the hot roast beef sandwich 😋😋 delicious! Have extra napkins“

“stop by curious of good burgers !! found GREAT burgers and FANTASTIC people! now Wolf Burger is my reg. Friday stop @ 👍🏻😋❤️“

“Great place. Really nice staff. Lots of space. All the best beer. Best spot in Springfield (Delco) to grab a drink with friends.“

“Great dive-ish bar whose Sunday Happy Hour (5-7) is taking on legendary status. Great craft beer selection and interesting cocktails. Friendly place. Highly recommended.“

“stopped in to drop off beer and had a cocktail. i asked if they could make a singapore sling & evan delivered a 10/10 sling. thank you once again for going off menu.

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

“We had our Dad’s 70th birthday party in the room downstairs last weekend, and everything worked out so well! Kristina was wonderful with answering all of my questions (I had a LOT, lol), and the party went off without a hitch! They even managed to put a slideshow of pictures up on one of the TV’s for everyone to view, which I very much appreciated. The food was great, the room was clean and comfortable, and Shannon, our bartender, was amazing! Highly recommend booking the space if you’re looking to hold a party!“

“Everything is great! From the bar to the appetizer's To the servers! The food is out of this world!! Highly recommend it!“

“First time visiting this location and Greg behind the bar was simply amazing. Warm and welcoming very knowledgeable and created a great experience! Employees creat an experience that make even the best beers just taste that much better! Thanks for the good convos and cold beers🍻🍻“

“the holy trinity of wings, drinks, and sports on the tv. came by high recommendation from a local foodie group. if you try anything you gotta do the chiodo wings, that sauce should be wholesale! and ask for molly she's a sweetheart!“

“Source Urban Brewery, Philadelphia, PA. I hate how much I enjoyed my visit to Source Urban Brewery. Why I wasn’t looking forward to this visit is a story for another time. The young women working this evening were awesomeness. I order the pretzel. It came with beer cheese. I told the young woman how much I loved beer cheese. She said it came with mustard and beer cheese but she could give me 2 beer cheeses. I said, ‘two beer cheese please.’ I have 3 beers each was better than the last. They all had a ton of flavor. They all tasted exactly as they were described. I think they are trying to be a higher end brewery. But, they have a big bar and you never what kind of crowd the Fillmore is going to bring in. Another young woman staffer told me she liked my shirt. If you follow me you know she won the shirt off my back—bonus video; 1. Win the shirt off my back shirt presentation. 2. Bathroom video.“

“Great craft beer menu. We ordered a few appetizers: plain nachos (large plate; very cheesy & delicious), margarita pizza and fried pickles (both were very good). Bartenders were very attentive. It’s a converted bank so you can still see the vault which is a cool feature. Highly recommend.“

“Cheap beer, outside TV’s and pub fare.“

“Great atmosphere and great people.“

“Lots of beer options. Friendly staff and management“

“the food was excellent and the service was wonderful and everyone was friendly they are a 10 all the way around definitely going back“

“Great vibe & food! We were welcomed enthusiastically, and the burger, cheesesteaks, and pizza were fantastic! Keep it up!“

“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.“

“Beautiful atmosphere , fun foods with great flavor“

“Awesome selection of beer, found all the beer I was looking for..

Appreciate the beer advocate ratings being included in the refrigerator, I'd come with a list in my head, but this would make it easy to pop in and try something new.

Will be back!“

“Depending on how packed and who's tending bar, the wait time for a drink varies- gotta be patient. The frozen "Henny" (lmmfao) colda--.. that's not Henny.. that's whiskey, trust me, I have my certification. Long story. But TuuuuMmmmm... Other than that- it's definitely a great place to go and have a blast. The Brazilian fiery haired bartender is a must see. She's cool ? Great place to chill out and play pool, if it's not crowded. Highly recommend“

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

“We had an amazing time. The owner Jim was very accommodating and our server Chris was amazing! Not to mention to food was great as well. I highly recommend!!“

“First time there, went thanks to Diner Drives and Dines recommendations. The WIT was so good. Atmosphere and service was awesome.! Love the vibe there. We will be back!“

“Thank you to everyone at Cosmic Cafe for great food at fair prices and ALWAYS a warm welcome. A special thank you to Adam for going out of his way to greet my son today.“
