-2 Women’s bathroom was a mess and not in great shape
-1 Mice running around, saw at least three
+2 Beer prices are fair

They clearly tried to keep costs low when building which is understandable, but they do need to focus on core business too

We sat in the Adirondack chairs and there weren't many people there, so we didn't get great service. The music made conversation difficult so we asked if it could be turned down and the initial response was as if we sprouted another head, but eventually it was turned down for a bit.

Played jenga and sipped on a mango beer with my husband under a pergola earthy set up. So beautiful 😍

Sat for 30 minutes in the main seating area didn't even see a waitress to ask to order. Horrible service!

Super fun stop conveniently located near Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. There's tons of seating, great food and drink menu, and free games for everyone to enjoy. I tried the soft pretzel bites and they hit the spot - soft and well seasoned. I will be going back soon, and taking friends.

What a great place to rest and have a snack and a beer or two. The Yards IBG Grapefruit Pale Ale was delicious.

I ordered chips and guacamole. When I asked if some of the menu items were dairy free, the bartender mentioned that they normally sprinkle ranch seasoning on the chips and couldn't confirm if there was dairy in it. She made sure they omitted it from my chips.

The service was top notch.

I had a decent experience here. There were some good happy hour deals and vegetarian options on the snack menu. However, I ordered the corn salad and explicitly asked if it came with lettuce and the waitress said yes, lone behold it did not. I also asked for it without meat and it came with it anyway but they were able to fix it. The buffalo cauliflower was really good. The food came quickly and the server was patient with the big group.

Happy hour was a great experience - both food and beer wise.

Love this place. Always make multiple visits when I come to Philly. Great in every way except…this absolutely inexplicable practice of pricing up their pitchers higher than the glasses per ounce. I can only think they’re trying to pull a fast one since pitchers are so fun to order. Love the place but you guys should cut that out.

The food was absolutely awful. One of our sandwiches came with a hair in it, the burger buns were soggy and soaked through, and everything tasted either old or just plain bad. It genuinely felt like the food had been sitting out for far too long or was made with expired ingredients.

To make matters worse, the prices were shockingly high for the quality (or lack thereof) we received. It’s honestly one of the worst meals I’ve ever had.

That said, the atmosphere was lively and our waitress did a good job, but overall, we left disappointed, disgusted, and feeling like we wasted our time and money. Would not recommend.

Atmosphere was cool… we stopped by on the way to the Chinese lantern festival…service was mediocre at best..told the server that my son just wanted a plain cheeseburger because he is allergic to onions and guess what??? It came out with the sauce and onions on it…we always double check…then when we asked for a new plain one we had to wait well over 40 mins for one. For just a plain cheeseburger???? My wife and I were done and were just sitting there. Any server knows you always take care of the kids first. Was the first and last time going there…
