50 Best Cocktail Bars near Bryn Mawr

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

“What an interesting place ! I was initially greeted by the ritual greeting of ' let me see if a table is available " . After a slight wait my party of 4 was seated at a booth with a window view. I must admit I was amazed the first time the express train silently flew by. I ordered the Steak and shared the grilled octopus with my husband. The food was excellent, and my server was very pleasant. It was a very cold night however I found the environment very warm and accommodating as our party enjoyed a fabulous bottle of red wine . Our experience overall was quite good and look forward to a Friday happy hour visit !“

“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.“

“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 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.“

“This place is so cool! I don’t drink but I think it’s really unique to blend a coffee shop with a whiskey bar. For those like me, they have a ton of coffee options and non alcoholic options that feel unique and special. Great cozy vibes inside too.“

“Incredible!!! The food, service, drinks and atmosphere….literally the best! It’s great for date nights and groups. There were options for everyone including vegan and vegetarian. I have been for dinner, entertainment and late nights and it’s always a great time. Can’t recommend it enough!! *Photo cred: Great eats by Midtown Social“

“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 ?“

“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 ♥️“

“A big thank you to Phil and his amazing staff at Rosemary. Me and my good friend stopped by after attending a viewing of a life long friend. Even though it was close to closing time, everyone was extremely welcoming and the couple pints that we got were exactly what we needed with just the right amount of haze. This local gem of a restaurant is a true treasure here in Ridley Park. Thank you for everything.“

“Such amazing and creative food, it was really good and the ambience was lovely outside! Server was so helpful with suggestions and food and drinks were fantastic!“

“Absolutely stellar place. It’s vibrant and colorful and the food is perfect. The plantains, chicken tinga tacos, and Cresta guacamole are three knockout dishes but most everything here is going to knock your brain to the back of your skull and have you speaking Spanish by the end of the meal.“

Food was amazing - fresh and sizable enough portions to be filling even for traditional seafood. The heirloom tomato salad was amazing and the small plate sampler was perfect sizing with shrimp, scallops, crab legs and oysters.. Will def go back, and glad to have found such a great new spot!“

She informed me that I needed to pick three meals and two starters for my menu. I had the room for 2 hours and it was so much fun! Checking out was easy and everything went the way we planned it. Would definitely recommend!!“

“First time at Rosalie we all ordered salads and pizza they were all delicious and the deserts were really good! We sat in lobby and loved the entertainment!! Would definitely come again“

“i went to the library bar on a date and it was so beautiful! For those who are NOT Philadelphia natives like myself, The Library Bar is located INSIDE The Rittenhouse Hotel. When looking it up, it says that, but it’s easily overlooked if you’re not paying attention or not familiar with the area.

The atmosphere was intimate, relaxing, and definitely an overall vibe. This is a great place for drinks among friends, a date, or even if you’re wanting a solo date in a place with a great atmosphere🤍✨“

“delicious food and great service 😋“

“The Cigar Republic is a fantastic cigar lounge one of the best I’ve ever visited. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by a warm, upscale atmosphere and a knowledgeable, friendly staff that truly makes you feel at home.

The humidor is well stocked with a great variety of premium cigars, and the lounge itself is comfortable, clean, and stylish perfect for relaxing solo or hanging out with friends. The service is top notch: the team is always ready to offer cigar recommendations, pairings, and make sure your experience is smooth from start to finish.

Whether you're a seasoned aficionado or just getting into cigars, The Cigar Republic is a place you’ll want to keep coming back to.

I highly recommend.“

“It was fine, manager was nice enough to serve us while the server was busy. Food was delicious.

Was pleasantly surprised by the meatballs, chicken parm sandwich and pan fried mortadella.

Would prefer other options rather than just fries with the sandwich.

Bathroom needs to be cleaned a little better.“

“A fun event. Good food on sale. Good drink variety on sale. The garden was lovely and tucked under a rail line. Parking wasn't terrible (for Manayunk). The event was well run: lots of give aways, activities and all in a cute location.“

“Took my husband here to celebrate his birthday. I started off with the fried green tomato tower, all the different flavors was like a party in my mouth. Next I had the lemon, dill salmon, I'm not a huge fan of asparagus but that was nicely cooked and tasted good. A nice size homade biscuit and jam. My husband had the smoked mac n cheese, the catfish po boy and spinach. The spinach was nicely seasoned and tasted so fresh. This was our first time here and we will definitely be going back.“

“They food good the music is nice and bartenders are good“

“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.“

“Bestest personalized service! Highly recommend as a local hometown feel establishment.“

“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.“

“Ordered delivery from DanDan. Obviously, the Dan Dan Mian was delicious!! Also ordered some classic Taiwanese dishes like the braised pork over rice, scallion pancakes and fried rice. I have to say the dishes were not as tasty as you get it IN Taiwan, but I think if you’ve never eaten it in Taiwan you’d probably be quite happy with it! It still satisfied my craving to an extent, and would definitely order again because there aren’t many Taiwanese restaurants to choose from, but for Taiwan locals it might not meet your standards!“
