About Dolphin Tavern

Dolphin Tavern is a popular dive bar in Philadelphia with a vibrant history. It has been a go-to spot for locals, offering lively music nights, affordable drinks, and a fun atmosphere.

While one experience pointed out issues with air conditioning on a hot night, others celebrated the great queer vibes and the ample room on the dance floor. The Dolphin Tavern remains a lively spot, known for its great happy hour deals and a welcoming environment, making it one of the best dive bars in the city.

I have had some really positive experiences at The Dolphin - mostly over a year ago. But every time I’ve tried to come recently I’ve run into the same thing.

I tend to come earlier in the night cause my friends and I are in our 30s. We usually don’t stay past midnight or 1. For this reason I understand we won’t always get to be there for the hits. But the past few times we’ve come we stayed for like 2 hours and they never play anything even...read full review
Alice and her team are amazing! Amazing DJs and dance floor. The cover is worth it given how amazing the vibes are.
