50 Best Cocktail Bars near Glenside

“Our first visit and we will surely be back! Shout out to Amber our bartender who was fabulous! The whole staff was great and the food just as great!“

“Really hip spot for drinks. I could easily see it being busier (there was a line when we left) but luckily when we went around 9PM on a Saturday we were able to grab one of the side tables, which were really cute! The menu is extensive so there's bound to be something for everyone. Prices were average, certainly not cheap but not out of line with what you'd expect for a place like this. Staff was really friendly and accommodating.

We got the corn 'n oil (lovely), corpse reviver #2 (pretty good), nitro espresso martini (I will never convert to an espresso martini liker so this was what it was), and honey bee. My biggest wish for the honey bee (and really all of their drinks) is that they weren't served in martini glasses (corn 'n oil thankfully was not), as it's just so much work to drink and I think detracts from the drink overall.“

“Grabbed some seats at the bar for happy hour. The vibe truly escapes me but I'm not mad about it. Did I understand the music choices? No, but again, into it.

The happy hour deals themselves are fine. There are 3 drink choices, none of which I was super interested in so went with a non HH beer instead. The names of the non HH cocktails are worth a read and clearly really thought out.

We went with both HH apps: the corn ribs and the white fish dip. The former was pretty good- I don't LOVE corn but the dipping sauce was nice and it was pretty well executed. The latter was much better. Nice chunks of meat with really great homemade chips. We also got the beignets which were the highlight: the melted cheese was excellent and was an addition I wouldn't have expected. The pulled pork and the cauliflower were sort of unnecessary here but still really nice.

Service was great. Everyone was super friendly. The prices for HH were fine, a BIT on the pricier side and the actual non-HH menu itself was also fairly pricey. Not sure I would necessarily feel the need to come for non-bar food. Really laid back fun atmosphere.“

“I had a great brunch. Loved the atmosphere. Food was excellent. I’ll definitely be back“

“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.“

“A hidden gem for casual eat or a date night. Some of the best pizza IN THE CITY and ANYWHERE. Plus awesome cocktails. Their menu crushes all the classics but also really nails their innovative flavors too. Love that they're around and hope they're here for a long time.“

“I love Char & Stave. Their cocktails are top notch! The space is really inviting. They host live music here and have trivia. It’s a good time here. It’s also a great place to grab a drink before heading to a show at Ardmore Music Hall.“

“I truly enjoyed the specialty drinks and the atmosphere. I was enjoying my delicious meal when I realized the crab meat, that was supposed to accompany the shrimp in my spaghetti, was missing. Our server did not offer to fix this BIG mistake, but gave us a shot that we did not ask for. That was how they compensated for the meal error. I really wanted the crab. This is a very nice establishment, but make sure you are get what you are paying for. I paid full price for a meal that was not complete.“

“This is an absolute amazing spot to go get drinks. The bar staff is so knowledgeable and personable and it makes the experience even better. Tried shots of honey whiskey and maple whiskey and both were amazing. Get here to enjoy some grownup cocktails“

“Delicious elevated dining. Seafood tacos and grilled octopus are great.“

“Went back to back nights. Sat down right away with a two top the first night and then waited fifteen minutes for a four top the next day. It’s an A+ type of place that you can just walk into and get great food and drinks without a reservation, something that’s increasingly impossible in town. Tempura was a table favorite. Service was great.“

“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 ♥️“

“Great drinks and the music allows for good conversation without being quiet. Awesome tiki bar!“

“nice local pub worth a visit“

“This is my go-to spot for lunch and happy hour! Laura rocks! :)“

“Killer cocktails! We will be back!“

“Only been there twice, but was enthralled each time. These guys get it. The service is friendly and impeccable, the food is prepared meticulously, the dishes are creative and high quality. Love the mood of the place; the ambience is perfect. Highly recommend their jazz brunch.“

“Fantastic dining experience our server Sean Martin was amazing.“

“Ashley did a remarkable job considering there were so many tables to care for during the 5 course martini dinner. She came back repeatedly to ensure our needs were being met. She even got my daughter & I two Med Rare filets when everyone was getting Medium👍. Great job during a rush rush dinner party!!“

“Very friendly service, very pleasant surroundings. Perfect place to stop and have a light nosh. There’s ciders are quite good, but on the dry side, which I especially appreciate. They also have excellent local wines and white snack snacks. Highly recommend recommended.“

“Get the brisket nachos , delicious ! Drinks we’re good , service was great , will return !“

“The fried chicken sandwich is awesome. The chicken is juicy and not dry, and the meat is very thick. This is the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. The dining environment is also very clean and tidy, and the restaurant staff are also friendly.“

“Thank you to all tonight! We were celebrating the impending birth of our grandson with his other grandfather! Our children are 1st time parents!! Christina was perfection, knowledge and sweetness all at once! Everyone treated us great! Thank you Christine for all your help! Looking forward to returning w/ the new Mommy & Daddy! Thank you all again. 3 excited grandparents!“

“I wanted to send a heartfelt thank you. We came on Wednesday for a lunch after my mom's funeral since I grew up going here. Your staff was amazing and super friendly, especially our server. The food was delicious and plentiful. Everything was done perfectly. This was exactly how my mom would have wanted it so great job and thank you.“

“We got the miso Caesar, Italian hoagie, bahn mi, and which ever non alc fruity drink with the passion fruit in it. The miso Caesar salad was delish until I connected the smell to a memory which was ~vintage Tupperware~. I couldn’t eat anymore after that but before I had that thought it was delish. Sandos were amazing and the drink was yummy! Service was perf per usual.“

“Service and food was amazing! Highly recommended“

“Such a friendly local Pub and beers are delicious!“

“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.“

“It’s harder and harder to find a good cocktail for under $20 in a big city. Poison Heart gives you excellent cocktails, great small bites, and an unpretentious environment in spades. Oysters and waffle fries hit. The Songs About Keri is a quaffable, less sweet version of a good margarita. The Goodbye Horses is a nicely acidic, bright redo on a classic Old Fashioned.“

“Seriously incredible. The chicken tortilla soup is my favorite soup east of the Mississippi. Perfect amount of spice, chicken, crispy torts, and avacado. Have tried majority of different entrees all very good, staff is so welcoming. Never change the soup“

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

“what a great place with delicious drinks and a wonderful tour.“

“My wife and I went to Sorellina for dinner. We both can't understand how it is possible that the place was half empty on a Saturday night. The pizza is truly excellent, from the dough to the toppings. Possibly one of the best Neapolitan style pizza we have tried in Philadelphia. The wine and dessert were also quite good. As native Italians, we highly recommend Sorellina!“

“Great fun! Awesome music, cool crowd. Great place to dance and celebrate life!! Yummy drinks!“

“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.“

“Pretty atmosphere and good food“

“Williamsburg Brooklyn in Old Richmond Phila“

“I’ve been to Fishtown Social many times and every experience has been great. Every wine/cocktail I’ve ordered has been very enjoyable. The whites and oranges are among the best I’ve ever had. I know I can try a few different wines here that I wouldn’t normally drink because the menu is always strong.

The service has always been friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I was just here last night catching up with some friends. Even though it was last call and close to closing, the servers were very patient and accommodating. In the past, they’ve also helped me choose from their bottle shop selection in the back.

It also has a great atmosphere - candles, a beautiful bar, and outdoor seating. Stopping by here is always a treat!“

“This is probably the best distillery in the area. The lemonade is amazing and the vodka is so smooth. Would recommend over and over again. You will not be disappointed!“

“Jaffa is redone into a stunning venue for great food and excellent service. 3 of us shared several dishes from the Cold and Hot sections of the menu; each of which was a creative bundle of flavors that looked beautiful and tasted great. Our server, Jose, provided excellent service, knew the menu and the wine list well, and guided us to make very good choices based on our interests and preferences. It was a great experience.“

“16 of their own beers on tap“

“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.“

“Amazing, delicious. creative food!❤️“

“Friendly staff, cold beer, good food. Perfect place to get out of this Philly heatwave and watch a game or honestly just enjoy their drafts and atmosphere. It was quiet when I was here, but I can imagine this place being amazing packed as well.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I came here for a good beer and I have got it!!! Very delicious and fresh beer. Love the vibe - darts, music, and customer service. ( it is the bar style)
I do recommend this place to beer lovers! John, the bartender is awesome! Knows his stuff!“

“I had a chronic urticaria last year, ever since then i have be visiting the clinic and taking different kinds of medicine but yet no improvement. Few months ago it got worse, the inching becomes unbearable, sometimes it spread all over my body and it almost affected my lungs. One faithful day, Someone saw me when I was at the supermarket here in ATL when I was shopping for some groceries, she walked up to me, we had a nice chat where she told me her experience when she had the same problem, and she was able to get rid of it permanently with herbs from dr festy, I requested for the Dr's contact and i ordered the medicine because at that point I was willing to try anything just to get rid my chronic urticaria. It affected my social life negatively, I hardly associate with people and I became depressed. So after using the herbs I was completely cured and my life is back to normal. I'll keep creating awareness about dr festy's herbal medicine by sharing my story because I know how it feels battling with chronic urticaria. Are you struggling with herpes, autism, HIV, infertility, HPV, and chronic health conditions, including diabetes, certain stages of cancer, arthritis, and anxiety disorders contact Dr Festy for proper consultations.
