About Frankford Hall

Frankford Hall is a solid spot for casual events and hangouts in the heart of Fishtown, Philadelphia. It features a modern take on a German beer garden with a hip, industrial feel. Despite its popularity, it offers fast wait times, though it can get overcrowded during peak hours. Visitors can consider arriving earlier for seating or a quieter experience. The venue has an open-air layout, communal seating, and a lively but relaxed energy, especially in spring and summer when the outdoor area is fully in use. The menu features delicious options like the chicken schnitzel sandwich and veggie burger, along with great fries, pretzels, and a large selection of local and imported beer. It is surprisingly kid-friendly during the day, making it a good casual outing for families looking to introduce kids to a lively setting without it feeling too formal. Just avoid late-night hours and keep expectations flexible, as this place is more “family-welcoming” than “family-focused.”

The atmosphere is enhanced by a sunny courtyard with large trees, brick architecture, and plenty of large oak tables, making it amazing on a sunny day. Inside, there are nice tables with warm lighting and a ping pong table. The staff is friendly and provides helpful recommendations. Although the beer selection is decent, some canned beers can be pricey, but they offer beer cocktails that are worth trying. Overall, Frankford Hall is a great place to gather with big groups, especially in good weather.
