“Ordered the chicken parm for take out. Great food!“

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

“These drinks are part of their summer drink menu. Pineapple whipped crushed (taller glass) and key lime pie martini (smaller glass). Both were incredible! If your having a hard time choosing between the two my favorite was the Pineapple.
They always have great live music here and the food is pretty good. They Thai chili sauce is 10/10! Do get the shrimp with it you'll thank me later.
I also love coming for brunch. I am a big fan of a expresso cocktail and French toast.“

“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.“

“Rich ... look him up in the Dictionary under "bartender extraordinaire" - He is super nice, very knowledgeable and makes you feel like family. This bar is not just that... the food is amazing! Stocked from head to toe with spirits, as one would expect in the city of '76, but the atmosphere is inviting and just darn special. If you are stopping into Philly for a day, live down the street or require a jolt to your life with some happy juice and a smile, check this spot out. You will not be disappointed.“

“Amazing. Must go.“

“I didn't think I liked sardines but had the sardine slider and it was delicious“

“Very authentic American cuisine, I really like it.“

“First time at the Ale House and we were really happy we went! Great bartenders/waitstaff, delicious portions of Fish & Chips and Roast Beef Sandwich w/ skinny fries, sadly we didn't save room for dessert. Definitely a sports bar vibe w/ 8 big screen TVs in the bar area. Did not get a look at the dining room but it seems to be a good size.
Will absolutely be back!“

“Love having supper here with my mom! The staff is great, too!“

“I went here with some co workers for an after work mixer, and it was great. The service was great. The food was good, and their happy hour prices were on par as well. I would gladly come here again. I hear they have a rooftop, but it was raining. That's something else to look forward to.“

“Nice friendly place great atmosphere“

“I was there celebrating my brother’s birthday and they accommodated our family quite well with a large group setting by a window! Lovely waitress who was quick and very attentive to everything we needed. I would definitely recommend it to any visiting Mt. Airy. 😊😄😋💕💕“

“Showed for the home made pop tarts. It was so yummy! Will be back again when in the area.“

“We just love our new family restaurant! We get treated like family everytime we go!!!! The atmosphere is so cozy and the staff is exceptional. And let's talk about the food - it's absolutely to die for! The portions during happy hour are perfect and the prices are so reasonable.

But the best part? Let me introduce you to DAVID! He's the star of the show - always attentive, funny, and he makes drinks like a true master! Whenever I go, I insist on being seated with David.

They made our anniversary so special and they truly care about their guests' experience. We feel so lucky to have this gem in the neighborhood. I'd travel far and wide for this level of excellence!

Oh, and I can't forget to mention my favorites: The Good Good Things drink, the Buffalo wings during happy hour, and the amazing cheesesteak! And my kids absolutely love the huge, deep dish, extra cheesy pizza.

We're off to our reservation with David - can't wait! If you go, make sure to say hi to him and tell him Mink sent you!

Almost forgot the fresh house made potato chips!!!! So so so good!!! Don't skip them!

Kid-friendliness: Always awesome and patient with my kids!“

“Amazing staff! so welcoming and helpful!“

“This place is great! A wonderful place to let your dog socialize, as well as yourself. And if you don’t have a dog , come for the food, it’s all very delicious! 5 Stars“

“My go to bar!! Baby the 50/50 burger and beef skewers on a Caesar salad are my favorites....good food, good vibes, I love how the owners are always friendly,welcoming, and present amongst the workers“

“Buck a schuck oysters, double braised short rib over rigatoni, key lime pie and even got a hug from the beautiful Solidea D! Everything was exquisite. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“I really love this place! It was my first time going. The host and server(s) were so very attentive and accommodating. The vibe was a cute little neighborhood pub, which was amazing. Even better was the friendliness amongst the employees, which stuck out to me because I really appreciate that! The food was pretty good as well!“

“A wonderful spot to see intimate music shows. Great staff, menu and drinks. Just be prepared for the steep stairs that go up to where the music is on the second floor.“

“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.“

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

“I came here a bit out of sorts after a personal setback. I needed help figuring out what to drink and a mixologist who I don’t think was on duty guided me to their special and it was such a good cocktail! The service and other customers were excellent. I hope to get back someday when I’m in this area.“

“Plenty of views of the Phillies game not a bad seat in the house“

“We stumbled into this wonderful place cold, hungry and exhausted. The wonderful lady at the door, who turns out to be the owner, welcomed us with open arms and began to search for a table. We had to wait a few minutes so she got us 2 stools to sit on while we ordered our beer. Minutes later our table was ready! We ordered the Guinness Casserole and left nothing on that plate! She came over to check on us and saw that we had no soda bread and got us a plate full. We boxed a few pieces to take back with us to enjoy at breakfast. As we left we thanked her and I told her that everything was FANTASTIC and showed her the bread we were going to take home! She then took the box and filled it for us so we had enough for long drive home! I will come back anytime I'm in Philly. I have told all my friends and family to come here. It is a wonderful place. Live Irish music and extraordinary service. Thank you for your warm hospitality and delicious food and cold beer!“

“The food and the service was top notch!!!“

“We found this gem of a place by accident. Walking near our Airbnb while on a trip down from Canada to see our Flyers play. This is a local bar/restaurant but we were welcomed in and had a great time. Super friendly staff, service was fantastic. It was a great place to hangout. We will 100% add this place to our favourites and return when we are back down again for a game. We came mostly for drinks but one guy had their wings and said they were excellent.“

“Great food and drinks! Always consistently good.“

“The waffles with fresh homemade whipped cream, maple syrup and fresh, in-season berries at brunch 🤤. Had the fried catfish sandwich 9 months ago and I still talk about how freaking good it was. Also appreciate the nod to local Roxborough history on the menu ❤️“

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

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

“Great for a Sunday afternoon hang.“

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

“Biggest beer collection I’ve ever seen.“

“A must-visit anytime we’re in West Philly. Or U City. Truly a timeless gem!“

“Miss this spot. Hope everyone is well!“

“Wonderful, friendly Irish Pub. Ray the bartender is so amazing! Knows my name and makes a great orange Jameson and cranberry. We will be back!.“

“Toska (Töska?) is a laid-back two-storey restaurant in what I would say is the main drag (or village center) of Mount Airy. The décor is simple, spare, and there are attractive blown-glass-looking accents strung on cables. The server was quite friendly, which in Philadelphia is not a given. We ordered eggplant parmesan sitting atop fettuccine in the requisite marinara sauce, which my husband liked a great deal, and a Wagyu burger on brioche, which was surprisingly good: the bacon was done exactly right, not sliced too thickly, and the burger was medium-rare as I had asked. French fries are decent, certainly abundant, but they're a little flaccid (they are, however, "real" fries, not the heated-up deep-freeze variety we see so often). A salad with cucumber and fennel and small tomatoes was perfect, as was the burrata on a bed of arugula with slightly roasted small tomatoes and a vinaigrette. I like a slightly more room-temperature burrata and one that is a bit less firm, but this one was fine. The ambience is good, except that the much-touted wood-burning oven perfumes the entire restaurant a little more than it should. Also, it would be good to have sparkling bottled water on the menu.“

“I enjoyed my meal at Station Tap I ordered the crabcake sliders and they were very good and they came with fries. There was just the right ratio of fries to sliders too. I will be going here again to try their other items on the menu.“
