I did not get any food, so no opinion there.

The bartender gave me a Shirley temple on the house. That was awesome.

Otherwise it was tight and crowded, but it seemed like other people were having fun.

0 for everything. NOT SAFE FOR WOMEN. Please read or just don’t go.
After taking time to heal I can finally write this. Last year, a friend and I checked out this pub after one drink and a filling meal each over at a nearby restaurant.
We decided to stop for a drink at what we thought was just a simple sports bar to chat longer. About 20 min before the bar closed we came in and a youngish male bartender served my friend and I canned alcoholic seltzers. We stayed with our drinks the whole time. Some older men were trying to hit on us but we politely declined the attempts. They were still at a decent distance away as we sat at the bar.
The bartender noticed our uneasiness (I guess) and offered us to stay after closing (it was maybe ten minutes until close at this point). He apparently invited some of his buddies to hang out after the bar closed he told us…we said no thank you as we thought it was weird for them to not be at the bar already as bartenders ourselves.
My friend and I walked over to the bathroom before our Uber arrived and that’s all I remembered. She remembered walking us straight outside and that was it. Our Uber (a man) was thankfully a safe person and shared with us the next day he saw us right away and how we were terrified. He was also horrified by our crying and fear and lack of awareness but tried to keep us calm and safe the best he could. My friend’s roommate helped him get us up the stairs and we spent the night vomiting, in pain, and incoherent. Her roommate was on the verge of calling 911 with how awful we were. I wish she had the way we both felt the next morning and few days.

I know I should’ve done more right away but everyone responds differently and I’m trying to share something now. Today, a year later I saw the charge on my card from Drinker’s Pub. For two seltzers for my friend and I the total was 112.98. I’m guessing the extra ’medicine’ from the awful bartender or whoever his terrible friends were ended up being on my tab too then.

Please if not for your safety, then for your pocket just stay far away from this predatory place.

Service was great and the man checking IDs was friendly and not the typical rude individual with that job. Bar service was also good.

Very rude. Bartender and manager yelled at my friend AND kicked out our group of 12 after a $100 bill fell in the trashcan behind the bar.

Where I’m from, we don’t yell at women and no one even apologized. I understand misunderstandings but an appropriate apology is necessary when the business is in the wrong and completely embarrassed our party.

Disappointed because we wanted to have a good time

Drinker’s will always hold a special place in my heart because I went on my first date with my amazing gf here. We watched the Eagles stomp the Cowboys and have been in love ever since. Love the location, the prices, and the service, even on busy days when games are playing. Highly recommend watching any Philly sports here.

I’m leaving now food eating just because I only stopped in for two drinks after a midday concert I saw. The place was pretty empty but the bar atmosphere was comforting and the bar tender was nice too. Also, the music was bomb
