“Great beer, better people!“

“We popped in this afternoon for a bite. Great beers, food and the staff were terrific! Met Tim, the owner, who answered all kinds of questions and was enthusiastic and friendly! Definitely planning to return! And hoping to get a sixtel for the kegerator at home!“

“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!“

“We organized a meeting for our Tech Community here and had a great time! The management and staff did their best for us. The restaurant has a very cozy atmosphere, which is perfect for talking and meeting people. Also, the kitchen is great with many different dishes for every taste. The QR codes made it very easy for everyone to pay for their own food and drinks. Thank you for the great service!“

“After a 2 hour drive it was soothing to encounter a great staff to go along with friendly conversation with the bartender. Brews top notch !!! Easy take out for beer and swag!!!!Don’t sleep on this place !!!!“

“Future Days is an absolute hidden gem in Northern Liberties. The beer is fantastic, and you can really tell everyone who works there is genuinely passionate about what they do..it shows in every pour. The spot itself is super cute with a laid-back, chill vibe that makes it easy to hang out and stay awhile. Definitely one of those places you almost want to keep a secret… but it’s too good not to share.“

“Attic brought us in to play their St. Pat's show, and man - the place is awesome!! Great food trucks outside, awesome beer, kind, fun, friendly people and ... obviously, killer (and handsome, we might add) entertainment. Sláinte, Attic, we'll be back!“

“Best small batch in the city! Amazing staff and Music ! If you haven’t been, start the car .“

“Great spot for a pint with friendly welcoming vibes from everyone I met. I had not known of this location until I had a recommendation from a neighboring jawn. Great selection of craft beer! This was my 138th brewery in the last 5 months, well worth stopping by into/leaving the area before 95 exits.“

“Amazing food! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great atmosphere! I went for a line dancing event. Did not have any drinks from the bar, but heard the drinks were on point. They did offer water which worked for me. Did not need to go to the bar to get it either. The food was delicious for a selected menu. I had the pulled pork panini. Excellent! Tender & tasteful. The only downfall was the food service payment option was mobile apps only. No cards or cash accepted.“

“Stopped by Yards because they had a parking lot. That was honestly our selling point. I'm glad we did.

Kelly was our server and she was absolutely amazing. She walked us through the menus, letting us know what was her favorites and what was the favorites of the regulars.

We had the wing phlight and the eggrolls. They were honestly better than I expected. The Sriracha ketchup was divine. The portions were huge. I enjoyed the bowl of chili and the cornbread.

I have no complaints and would definitely come back.“

“Great staff, great beer and cocktails! We always enjoy it here!“

“we've tried a lot of Oktoberfest, and Punch Buggy has one of the best around!“

“I’m Dr Momoh and I cure different types of diseases and virus with my herbal medication which I normally prepare from natural roots and herbs. Get back to me if you need my help on getting any disease medication.“

“Good beer and food great atmosphere with friends and easy access to trains.“

“Great IPA’s! Super staff!“

“Great place ,great beef ,amazing people“

“I'll say up front, on a sunny day, I'd give it 5 stars. The beer is excellent, and the food truck offerings are solid. The gourmet grilled cheeses on sourdough are probably the best option. In the rain, the food and I got a little wet. Would be nice if they had a tent that went from the door to the food truck. Very kids friendly before 8pm, almost every table had kids or toddlers.“

“Stumbled across this farm brewery and what a pleasant surprise! If you’re a hazy hop head, just wow. Warwick had at least 8 IPAs and I tried 3! Each was a perfect amount of haze, great mouthfeel and unique hop combinations. Tasting room and outside seating are plentiful. The only ding for me was the beertender could have been a little more approachable. But will head back for the hazies!“

“First time to Love City. Excellent beers and customer service. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Fantastical beer and that’s all that needs to be said.“

“There is so much I love about this place. Devil's Pool is the double IPA I judge all other by.“

“Great brewery, fantastic beer, food is off the hook, but great service. Shoutout to Shawn, he treated me well the first time here!“

“We love Carbon!! West Philly is so lucky to have them. Their beers are excellent (the Gully is my go-to), the staff is awesome, and the food is delish! The pizza of the week always keeps us on our toes in the best way. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Double Nickel Brewing Co. is the best place to go for a killer craft brew, friendly staff, tasty food, and a second to none, family-friendly atmosphere! Jagged Little Thrill-The Alanis Experience had a wonderful experience performing in Fall 2024, and we can't wait to come back this Saturday night, September 6th, to have another incredible show for the memory books! Thank you for being so amazing, DN!! 🫶❤️🙏“

“There is never a wait here, and that’s insane because of how good it is. The atmosphere is great since it’s roadside in ambler. The food is cheap and you get soooo much. I got the chicken strips, and they genuinely took an entire chicken and cut it into pieces. Poor Albert, he was a good chicken. R.I.P. At least he tasted good 😋. And to end this review, I’m going to talk about the pretzel. This pretzel is the reason we go to Tannery Run. This is the reason for the five stars. This pretzel is my motivation for everything in life. Not exaggerated.“

“We came here on a Saturday and it was the perfect chill situation! The server (John I think) was so personable and friendly and easy to talk to! He set up the wii for us and we just had a wonderful afternoon playing darts, Wii, and drinking very good beers (highly appropriate is the MVP). I wish we lived closer (we are from Lancaster) cause we would be here all the time:“

“Amazing beer! Sometimes you visit a brewery and the beer is just okay, but that’s never the case here. Every beer I’ve tried has been high quality, flavorful, and expertly crafted.

You can really tell they put a lot of care into what they brew. I’ve always left impressed and looking forward to my next visit.

Highly recommend!“

“Excellent live music venue.“

“Such a great place with the nicest people, and the beers are delicious! Highly recommend Crooked Eye to all.“

“If you’re heading to Northern Liberties with kids in tow (and still want a beer), Craft Hall/Mainstay Independent is a solid choice for lunch.

Craft Hall is a massive industrial space that houses Mainstay Independent Brewing Company and feels more like a sports bar than a traditional brewery. Parking in the small front lot is tight but there’s also street parking and a couple of garages just a few blocks away if you’re willing to loop once or twice.

Inside, the vibe is unapologetically industrial: exposed steel, high ceilings, big open room. It’s not warm and cozy or where you go for a quiet pint.

Our visit was a bit chaotic. There’s a large indoor playground (pirate ship) packed with dozens of kids running, climbing, and burning off energy while parents reclaim a sliver of sanity. It’s extremely kid-friendly, and that clearly drives the lunch crowd.

Adults get their own zone at the bar, which helps balance things out. The tables are spacious, the projectors and TVs are plentiful, and the whole setup is perfect for watching a game, hosting a happy hour, or gathering a big group.

Beer-wise, we found the lineup solid but mostly average, with the standout being the Winter Bock. The traditional German-style lager was very malt-forward, roasty and smooth.

Craft Hall isn’t an intimate date-night brewery. It’s loud, lively, and built for volume. But if you’re looking for a kid-friendly brewery experience in Northern Liberties where adults can still grab a solid pint? This place absolutely fills that niche.“

“Great microbrewery located in a beautiful setting. The open air at the back side is quite a surprise walking into the place from Elm St. Food is also great and affordably priced. Only wish they kept their kitchen open past 7:45 pm. That is too early to close the kitchen and that too on a Saturday. Their best beer is "Backpack". Smooth and refreshing.“

“Great beer. Friendly staff. What else can you ask for?“

“What an amazing place!!!! Thanks to Stephanie we found out about a few other local places to check out!! Where to start the atmosphere perfect!! The hospitality is amazing. The ciders AMAZING.... hand pies (MADE IN HOUSE) BY STEPH are second to none💜🧡. A MUST STOP BY!!“

“We love pbc! They are more like family to us!!!“

“Haley our bartender is fabulous!“

“Great beer and ambiance at the Fishtown location! The management and staff were so friendly and made us feel welcome! We’ll definitely go back the next time we are in Philadelphia!“

“Lovely little spot. It appears to be relatively new. Bright, open and clean. I’d call the decor Minimalistic. The irony of Our Town is that they are from Lancaster. It was quizzo night so they were crowded. The woman next to me at the bar ordered a sour beer. She kicked the keg. No sour beer from Jimmy. We had a nice chat. I think she just wanted to gloat that she got the last sour. I got a $6 citywide. I think I won. Nice little spot.“

“Great food! Great atmosphere. Beautiful setting. Everyone that works here is super nice. Great beer as well!:)“
