“Love the atmosphere! Good food, great service! Fun place to be and celebrate!“

“I'm so late with this review, I know this, but I had to let you know what a wonderful job you all did on Superbowl Sunday. Food was great, ambience was chill and lively at the same time, but the service is what really stood out! I sat at the bar, and my bartenders were Monae and Aliyah (spell check), they were so friendly, knowledgeable and attentive! That's not always easy to come by in bar/restaurants these days, but those ladies nailed it! Thank you for a wonderful time!“

“We came right before brunch ended on a Sunday and our server was incredibly kind, inviting, and met all of our expectations. On top of that, we loved everything we ordered. We’re not often in this neck of the woods but we will be back!! <3“

“Excellent local spot. Dennis is a great host and I've had a great time every time I've been.“

“Drinks are to margaritas 16.00 come on wow“

“Really like this place. Have been coming for a few months now. They make a good drink and the food is great. Love the chicken quesidillas! The staff is friendly and attentive. The size of the bar is really big, with lots of room for the tables, too.“

“Lived up the street from this place for 5 years and turns out I'm an idiot. I door dashed a cheesesteak from there last night fell asleep let it sit on the counter for 10 hours and put it in the fridge for 12 more hours and ate it freezing cold...and it was hands down still the best cheesesteak in 10 miles...can't wait to eat a fresh one 😂😂“

“Great place, selection of spirits and the food is outstanding! Check out the bartender Eddie, that's my guy“

“My second time at the establishment and it was just as excellent as my first. For me, hands down the best Manhattan in Philadelphia. And it was as good as my first.

I only ate French fries at my first visit having brunched earlier in Manayunk and they also were just as delicious. The Taphouse bacon burger was divine. Just the best mix of crispy edges, gooey cheese, fresh & delicious tomatoes (rare for January in the NE! ) and possibly a common , happy problem to have, SO much food. I enjoyed every bite & sip & our server for a fair sized group of more than 15 was friendly, efficient and very well organized.“

“This was my second visit to Ripplewood Whiskey & Craft, and my first time experiencing their happy hour—and it did not disappoint. The menu had a great variety, and I enjoyed both the drinks and the pork bao buns.

A standout “happy accident” was ordering the pretzel rolls with truffle butter… absolutely amazing. That alone is worth coming back for.

The bartenders were attentive and provided great service throughout our visit. We also tried the deviled eggs, which were just okay for me—the mustard base was a bit too strong for my taste.

Overall, Ripplewood is a lovely spot with a relaxed vibe and nice outdoor seating in the back. It’s a great place for drinks, small bites, and a chill evening out.“

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

“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!“

“We stopped in after work for a beer and a bite to eat. We are at the prime rib and the fish and chips. Both were cooked to perfection. Great service from the kitchen and bill a bartender.“

“I use to play pool when I was younger. It was great times. Since they took the tables out im only in there 2x a year. Service still good, Greg the bar tender is awsome, food is bar food and nothing really omg special but plentiful and good prices. Ross plumbing had there Christmas party there, had a good time. Good spot small parties and bago.“

“On June 15th my friend and I went here because it was my birthday, our bartender, Jenn was absolutely amazing! She shouted out my birthday and even gave me a piece of cake..the atmosphere was so laid back, I kept telling her that my friend and I were only friends but her face said something different, but that's another story..lol
I would definitely come back again.“

“My friends & I (party of 10) met at Capone's on Sunday, March 24, 2024. We were set up in a room that made it very easy for us to talk with each other while we ate. The menu gave a lot of options for all of us, the service was outstanding, and we were not rushed. Most of us had never been there before, but we all agreed how much we liked it, & we plan to do it again.“

“The Mulberry is a great neighborhood pub and an excellent place to meet friends or unwind after work. The atmosphere is comfortable and not overly loud, making it easy to enjoy your time.

I ordered the burger, and it was cooked well and exactly what I was hoping for. We didn’t try any cocktails this visit, but I’d definitely try one the next time I’m in the area“

“Great American Pub is fun especially when hey have live music!“

“Excellent now!!! Had sworn off years ago before new ownership took over and cleaned up the place! Just got around to trying again. Have been twice now so far. Delish food, super friendly staff, welcoming diner! And clean. Keep it up Andy’s, great job. Lastly and most importantly…Vanessa/Miss V is the best. Wonderful service, Miss V!!! Thank you.“

“Not a busy night but Jennifer gave us a late date that we could make and we reciprocated by sitting down upon arrival rather than enjoying some bar time.The entire staff worked together to make it feel unrushed, and we had a much needed relaxing meal in a family environment.“

“Castle Roxx is my go to stop. Every time I come I have a great experience. All of the bar tenders always are amazing and work so hard to make my experience the best in Manayunk. Eric and Vinny are two of my favorite bar tenders. They make even the slowest nights the most fun. I normally come during the week, as opposed to the weekends, and I never regret it.“

“My husband and I have been coming here alot lately. Winter season can be pretty dull and we don't like being stuck at home all the time. So this has been our go to place to get a few drinks. Stella, Yuengling, Guiness they got it. They have others but these are our favorites. Go check them out.
We try to go during the weekdays or weeknights. If you likes crowds, Game Day is perfect for that.“

“We had a 90th Birthday Party for my dad there! The food & service were great. The staff was helpful & accommodating! Would highly recommend! 👍🏼👍🏼“

“I come here fairly regularly with my running group. This a great neighborhood bar, the owner is awesome and super friendly. The food is also better than you'd expect for a dive bar, but it still has the dive bar charm. This is easily my favorite bar up the hill in Manayunk“

“Murphy’s Tavern is honestly one of my favorite local hangout spots! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by super friendly staff who always seem happy to see you. They’re quick with service, always checking in, and just genuinely nice people who make the whole place feel really welcoming.

The vibe here is super chill — great for grabbing a drink after work or spending a weekend night out with friends. They’ve got games outside AND inside which makes it even better when the weather’s nice. It’s so fun to just hang out, play a few rounds, and enjoy the atmosphere.

The crowd is always friendly too, and there’s this nice community feel to the place that you don’t get everywhere. Between the good drinks, beer draft selection, great people, and the outdoor setup, Murphy’s Tavern is the kind of spot you end up staying at longer than you planned.

If you’re looking for a laid-back place with great service and a fun vibe, this is definitely it!“

“Definitely recommend...this place is awesome!“

“I’m from California live in Washington state now flew out there for a game. Was told about this place went with some friends and had a ball. I loved the atmosphere the music the vibe it’s like in the movies had never experienced a bar like this one. Would go back if I visit Philly again.“

“A great place to come in and relax with nice people and a awesome jukebox“

“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.“

“Wow, what a find. Very good food and service by Demitrius was outstanding. I forgot my hat and he tracked me down two blocks away at the ice cream shop to bring it back to me! We will be back. We had Salmon BLT, Fish Tacos, and Hot Turkey Sandwich, all were excellent.“

“Great place to watch the game! Terrific staff and good food!“

“Food was hot, fresh and flavorful. Pasta was cooked to perfection without being over cooked. Portions were adequate. Dessert were fresh and satisfying. We enjoyed the Rigatoni Bolognese and a shrimp/seafood with pistachio cream sauce. Waitress was attentive. Only suggestion for improvement is to better train the bus staff to not ask to remove someone's plate while they are still eating. This is a very simple principle. We will likely return to try more dishes. Nice find!“
