50 Best Bars near Norristown

“Family of seven ate there. Food was all so so good. Everyone was so friendly!“

“We showed up today a Steppys very skeptical because of name change. But all was good old Steppys. Michele the waitress was great, polite and professional, my service was perfect, my prime rib dinner was fabulous, so was the crab cakes, salad, mash tasters, and french onion soup. There was not even a wait to get in at 530pm. Been going here over 20 years and will continue.“

“This location is a lot of fun. Simple beverages; nothing special, but the clientele is steady. Not a group of children. Additionally conveniently close to a number of restaurants that deliver. Tabby and Miss Kay, the bartenders, are observant and keep everything tidy. No waiting around for service. good varieties of booze and take-out beer.“

“Muy buen servicio recomendado“

“Even when extremely crowded, there is kind staff on hand. Good cuisine (try the tacos! ), as well as fairly affordable drinks. a wonderful variety of imports and beers from throughout the world, especially IPAs. Simple to find and reach from outside the city. toilets that are tidy and maintained. Come with a friend and visit!“

“The food and good people!“

“Jaeda the Bartender doesn't just give amazing service, she's also a certified Grizzly Bear Black Belt. Picture this: I'm leaving Panico's late one night, and i hear a strange growling noise. At first i was worried it may be my stomach, but then i recalled the decadent fries ala cheese Jaeda had made promptly and served me with good cheer. Alas, it twas not my intestinal dilemma, but a full grown King of the Forest! Eight terrifying feet of Ursa Major bearing down on me. All puns intended. Just as i thought i would finally learned the fabled mystery of where the bear defecates in the woods, who should appear across the threshold of Panicos entrance, but Jaeda, with twin Katana blades at the ready. Tonya Harding would be jealous of the grace and elegance of her as she sliced through the air and guts of the furry invader. After leaving the battered carcass of the bear strewn thither, she came back to me, covered in blood and bear feces. I was glad, for i was covered in my own, and soiled mine undergarments quite profusely. Jaeda offered me basketball shorts that are 2 sizes to big, and a Bird's Jersey, as is the custom of the region, and walked me safely to my chariot. Definitely try the cheesesteak!“

“Bartenders are great. Excellent beer!“

“Great food and drinks! Always consistently good.“

“First visit. Great food and super service. We will be back.“

“A home away from home for Commanders fans living in Philadelphia. Old Bay is featured heavily on the menu, as it should be. They easily accommodated our walk in party of 14 and put up with us playing "Hail To The Redskins" on the jukebox repeatedly.

*To the couple Commanders fans who left negative reviews, that's not cool and you're missing the joke.*“

“Gorgeous Venue comfortable & welcoming would definitely host another event there 🤩“

“Very divey, but delicious hot wings and flavorful quesadillas. Was a little strange that all the cups were plastic but we assumed maybe the dishwasher was broken. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Still highly recommend.“

“I had my rehearsal dinner at the Daisy Tavern back in May. When I first booked the dinner, the Daisy Tavern was still on the newer side and working out the details of private events. I definitely took a small risk booking and was a little nervous but wow did I make a great decision. Every single detail was well executed and so thoughtful. Melissa was very responsive via email. Our server was attentive and so kind. We had a guest with Celiac disease and the staff was very helpful in accommodating her. Our guests were so impressed and loved the dinner. It really set the tone for the best weekend ever. I could not recommend them enough.“

“Bar Jawn has Amazing service and food! In addition, a special thank you to Twon, Kelly, and David for helping out Blind Sports Organization (BSO) for letting us raise some money to let us continue and play the sport we really love. They really took great care of us the 6 hours we were there for.“

“Can't say enough positive things about this neighborhood gem. Great bartenders who make the place feel like home, two pool tables which draw friendly players of all skill levels, delicious food and rotating specials, and the most lovely regulars who will make you feel like family. Scanlons is why I love living in this neighborhood.“

“The most beautiful establishment on Main Street. Amazing vibe, lively events, (game night, open mike, live music concerts). Great craft beer and such a friendly staff! This place is the best! (They also host private events that have been widely praised)“

“The bartenders are on point, as is the pricing for anything outside of a private club. It's legit one of the last bastions of what a "corner bar" quintessentially is - afforable drinks, great service and interesting people. If the smoke isn't a deal breaker for you, stop in.“

“Great dinner and fun night with friends“

“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“

“Sorry I didn't have any food. But a great little corner bar. Old time stuff. Just a place to go in and have a couple drinks. And pick up on the occasional conversation, which can get very interesting. Great bartender will make what you ask him to.
Please do not pass on good information about this place. I don't want anybody else finding out about it.
If you're lucky you can run into the psychologist that I ran into, and get a session for the price of a couple drinks.

Parking: The later in the evening the better. Meters on both sides of the street. Went at 10:00 p.m. had the whole street to myself.“

“This was my first time here with a friend, and we had a wonderful time. Our server, Keegan was amazing!! Super personable, and hopefully not too upset that we were sitting for so long. We’d not seen each other for over a year, and Keegan was attentive and made our visit even better. The food and drinks were also great! Thanks for a making it a fantastical evening. Will definitely be back!“

“I had a burger delivered and it was so good! It was a nice medium rare and had fresh lettuce, tomato and onion. It was very juicy and the bun didn’t collapse to the liquid. It was also still hot and delicious after the delivery. The bacon wasn’t thin flimsy bacon either it was a nice thickness and had good flavor. The times that I have been to Murphy’s in person the waiters were very nice and it was an excellent enjoyable time. Overall a very nice place, I would go again soon.“

“great food great atmosphere best on main line“

“I've frequented the Broad Axe for quite some time and love it for the friendly and welcoming staff and warm atmosphere. The food is good and they have an extensive beer and spirits list. The skilled bartenders can whip up anything to suit a mood or taste.“

“Had a great time. We went to see Magical Mystery Doors. Food was excellent and top k notch burgers. Our waitress went above and beyond ( sorry forgot name but petite woman curly hair). Our only complaint was they should set boundaries when there is live music. We had a table almost next to the stage but there was so many people that we had to stand ( not that that’s a problem) but there was ways they could’ve avoided this. All in all a solid place“

“Tasty tacos and tasty margaritas!!!“

“My husband and I went here for the first time last week. The woman that took care of us was Lee. She was very inviting and kind. Our drinks were refreshing! When our food came out, everything was so fresh, hot and delicious!!! We had no wait time to be seated. The wait for our food after ordering was minimal. I wish we had come here sooner. We will be returning!“

“Love the Shuffle! and the regulars. Reminds me of Cheers!“

“I was staying in Plymouth meeting for a few months from dallas for work and this place quickly became a home away from home. Was right after the eagles won the Superbowl and nobody gave me a hard time when I wore my cowboys gear in! Good friendly people. Reminded me of my little hometown bar back in Dallas. Great food too!“

“Great food and laid back atmosphere. Have been coming here for years.“

“Nice summertime friendly atmosphere with live music, drinks and apps. Feels like your down the shore without the ocean.“

“This place is great, clean, nice great prices. Pete is fantastic and very accommodating. We live in the neighborhood and love to stop by for a nice beer, shot, cocktail. Highly recommended and great place
In the manayunk neighborhood. Gotta stop in!“

“WOW!!!! I was the first guest at GHAL after reopening, and it DID NOT disappoint!!! Great food ( awesome menu), great drinks, and UNBELIEVABLE service 🤙🤙🤙🤙 Thanks Patrick, DEFINITELY coming back soon 👏👏👏“

“Great for a Sunday afternoon hang.“

“Smoking permitted. Limited grille menu, but prepared with care. Compact pool table. Digital jukebox. Cash only. It's a classic. Cold macro beer is on tap along with a decent variety of cans and bottles. Wild Turkey 101 and Tanqueray are cheap. Superb cheese steaks. Say hello to Steve for me. If you ask him nicely, he'll mix up a fine Manhattan or Gibson.“

“If you are looking for a local divey bar this is it. Bartender was pleasant. There was a dart game in progress on the night we came. We were too late to order food but behind the bar and bar top seemed pretty clean. The booths near front entrance also looked recently re done. Even though we are not from the area- the regulars were welcoming.“
