Lounges in Philadelphia, PA

“Awesome speakeasy style bar. Small (15ish tables plus bar space) and doesnt take reservations. Got lucky that there was a table open when we walked in as it was the last one. Booth was comfty, mood lighting was romantic, music was a bit odd for the setting (latin-ish vibes) but not distracting. Drinks were great, had the bartenders choice which resulted in a good interesting drink. Lots of liquor options too and snacking food looked solid.“

“My husband took me out to Philly for an early Mother’s Day gift. He said we were going to a “speakeasy” type bar in Chinatown but I didn’t believe him. When we got to an iron screen door, he was like this is it and I was like you got to be kidding me. The owner came out, asked my husband if he knew it was a cash bar took our ids then went inside. The owner brought back our ids then took us inside to a foyer where he told us the rules of the bar. Cash only, absolutely, no photography and no phones. If you need to take a phone call, you go back to foyer area or outside to not disturb people. We agreed to rules and went inside. The bar was dimly lit with candles on each table. The decor was amazing with pictures and antiques on the wall. We were sat at a table and given a cocktail menu. The cocktails were unique and separated by whiskey, gin, vodka and rum. If you need a light since it is so dim in the bar, they will bring you a light because they brought one to my husband. There were no beers on the menu so if that is what you’re looking for then this isn’t the place for you. We ordered our cocktails and they were amazing. Since there is no phone usage, you have more of an intimate experience with the person you are with because you aren’t distracted by your phone. We sat and talked while drinking our drinks. The owner came over and asked us about our drinks and how we were doing. We then ordered another round of drinks and continued talking. We enjoyed our time at Hop Sing Laundromat. Service was great, bartenders were great, owner was great, and the ambiance was amazing. This is a great date night spot for anyone who wants to enjoy a intimate setting with a cocktail or two. I would post pictures but again, No Photography so you would have to go in order to see it to believe it. You will enjoy this experience and not be disappointed.“

“This is truly my favorite bar. The drinks are amazing and every time I go I have met some of the most interesting people and spent the night chatting and having a great time. This is a very small bar but the perfect place to go for an intimate night out.“

“My bartender Anna I was super attentive and awesome. The ambiance was great and it wasn’t too crowded to the point where you can’t move. It’s a great atmosphere and a nice music vibe. I deff recommend checking it out. (I went on Latin night on a Thursday)“

“Love this place! The food is amazing and the drinks are fun! Its a great spot to have girls night or office party. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable as far as the menu goes. If you have an issue they are quick to fix it. Its always a fun time!“

“Just great food and a very kool atmosphere for good drinks and great food..💯“

“This spot is the place to BE! Here’s a heads up – you won’t be in your seat for long! My friends and I love the vibe, dance (and sing!) like nobody’s business, meet new people, and overall have a great time, every time.

The service is awesome. Staff and management are super friendly, professional, responsive and always encourage us to have a great time.

They have good food, an awesome public lounge that hosts all kinds of events, and many different private rooms to host parties of all sizes. ALSO have a delicious hotpot restaurant next door!!

Definitely worth spending a night out with friends! 💃 🎤 🪩“

“It's the spot - WOLO Saturday Nights“

“The food was amazing. The decor gave the restaurant a nice African flare and not too much. Their level of hospitality was top-notch, we met the chef/owner and her son. The music was nice. Overall, we had a wonderful experience for African Restaurant Week!“

“We had a great time. Came back after our show.“

“great place to have a Good Time“

“This is straight up one of the coolest vibes in black Philadelphia. You get such a diverse crowd of people across the diaspora and the food is amazing. Karaoke night brings out some REAL singers but even if you aren’t good, the crowd is still so supportive and fun. I really love this place.“

“Best bar in Philly. Kyle and the entire staff have been nothing but good to us over the years. Drink specials are great. New taco menu is fantastic. Live music and DJ nights rule!“

My girlfriend had there Chicken with French Fries she said it was very good, It a nice chill spot, it dnt get crowded @ all.....I will definitely be back to buy there food here, They sell SeaFood here to.“

“It honestly doesn't get any better in philadelphia. I'm giving a 9.9/10 I'll explain why at the end.
This place is what dreams are made of. It's so beautiful, calming and peaceful. My steak and eggs was cooked perfectly. The presentation was great. The drink was the best I ever had.
The view is breathtaking and I mean that. Prepare for the elevator ride. I was not prepared.
My server was so nice. Everyone wished me a happy birthday. The service is a 10/10

I always read all rules to upscale restaurants before going. There was not a rule about tripods. So imagine paying 100+ for a meal and can't take your photos for me that kills me whole vibe. Or being 60 floors up and can't get your photo. I like to enjoy fine dinning alone so my photographer is me. It's a little embarrassing. But that was my only issue.“

“Food was good. Atmosphere was nice for a visiting out-of-state police officer. Company stor offers a lot of Philly PD swag. Very "safe" environment. Will visit again the next time in town. Recommended for LEOs to add it to your list if in the area.“

“Went here for a date night before the ballet. The food was excellent: our waitress Hannah suggested the scallop appetizer (with bread to soak up the sauce afterwards!) and the tiger prawn entree, so we got those and the shrimp pancake cups. She was right! Those meals were fantastic. Eating here was a real treat. Great food, great drinks, great service. We'll be back. Thanks Hannah!“

“Love this space. Amazing spot that doesn't feel hotel bar at all. Great option for corporate ad hoc events - easy to get group seatings. Food is amazing and drinks are great! Service is good. Will come back and take more pics next time!!!!“

“I travel out of the Amtrak Lounge in Philadelphia daily for work in the New York area quite often and I want to give a special thanks to the attendant Nicole who greets all of the passengers daily with positivity and enthusiasm.

It’s not easy juggling all of the train schedules for passengers but she handles that task perfectly.

In regards to the lounge itself the bathrooms are always clean throughly and I want to say thank you for providing fresh fruit in the mornings. I’m an orange enthusiast and they really perk me up in the mornings :)“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“I chose this place to celebrate by brothers birthday with the things he would have liked; he love cheesecake and a good gin. So I ordered what he would have eaten if he was still with us. My good friend joined me for a drink before we went restaurant hopping after work.
Hostess female was not friendly on the entrance ; however the male host is the reason for the three stars. Our server was not friendly just blah. As I watched her she was like that with all the guest. The views were amazing our drinks were wonderful. I didn’t into include the two glasses of moscato or the crab cakes. All so good. The lobster roll needed seasoning but for the price I ate everything lol. The presentation was good on all except the cheesecake flight mango passion fruit and coconut flavored 7/10.
I like the venue I’ll check it out again and hopefully I can give five stars. For me customer service is the determining factor. Definitely visit and make reservations“

“Great food great drinks and awesome bartenders“

“I luv this place is chill the ppl are cool, the service is awesome, variety of music, bilingual bar and they have 2 pool tables. Ask about the schedule for the pool tournaments against other bars. Overall luv this place a I recomend it 💯%.☺️“

“Amazing selection of cocktails and the vibe is fun in the bar. We got the soup dumplings, chicken stir fry, and the shrimp tempura and ate and left no bites. A great intimate spot for friends or a date:) The service was incredibly efficient and nice.“

“Excellent food and service!! Lovely location!“

“The Grand Kitchen didn’t come to play with the wings. Them jawns be bangin. I’ve had the mango hibenero, sweet Thai chili, and lemon pepper. The peach cobbler egg rolls hit.
Now the other menu items are okay. The pasta is not as flavorful, we had the lamb Cajun Alfredo the first time and Rasta pasta the second time. (Lamb by itself was flavorful and good)
Also, the seafood cheese steak, is loaded with seafood, mainly salmon and big shrimp. I just wish it had more flavor the teriyaki flavor wasn’t really there and the bread was split in the other side so I had to eat with a fork. Couldn’t pick it up like I wanted.

I will go again to try the rice bowls. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is clean, but they should let me in a decorate. It could be more appeasing to the eye. Don’t let that deter you from going. They doing good stuff in the kitchen.“

“This place is so cool, it was a unique experience. Kelly was our bartender, she was so friendly and cool. If you are in town, definitely swing by this place, drinks are cheap, and conversation is priceless. I would give it more stars if possible.“

“If you are looking for a good Island Vibe this is the place to go to . Wide selection of Inland beers and food . No need to go to NYC“

“Tender Touch is my place of choice if I want a drink. Lots if friendly people.“

“Dinner was awesome! Delicious. We went here on a whim and dinner was spectacular!“

“I visited El Patio Cafe Restaurant for the first time. I ordered the chocolate milkshakes with whipped cream and cherries for me and my daughter. It was so light and airy, affordably priced for the container size. The environment is warm and inviting with a small seating area to accommodate ten people, in case you are waiting on your order to be completed. Speaking of orders, the menu displays a variety of multicultural foods and they are affordable for the budget-conscious eater. Overall, I highly recommend El Patio Cafe Restaurant as my go-to neighborhood eatery for good eats and sweet treats. If you are reading this review and you are not local to the South Philadelphia area, I suggest you check them out with a friend.“

“very beautiful place and your workers are very respectful💪“

“its a nice very nice establishment great service and you'll have a great time there“

“It's a great place to go and relax with a shisha. The best shisha I have ever smoked, the atmosphere is nice ((very calm music)), the place helps you study or complete some transactions on the computer, without disturbance from customers, and the place was clean and well ventilated. The bathroom was also clean. The service was excellent with brother Adel. He was very nice. The tobacco was fresh and the charcoal was clean, with no smell or taste.“

“Definitely recommend...this place is awesome!“
