THE best bar for a sports event! Laid-back, fun environment! 10/10!
Perfect Philly dive
Great neighborhood bar with some cool people to drink with. Didn’t get any food so sorry for the one star. Definitely will go back before or after a game. See you soon!!
Go Birds! Nuff Said!
Gem of south philly.
Cozy, friendly, classic philly spot
PHILADELPHIA, PA: we love ourselves a good dive bar and McCusker's Tavern perfectly fits the bill! The building has been an Irish bar since 1907 and McCusker’s took it over in 1968. You can feel the Philly pride in here - the walls are full of Philadelphia sports memorabilia, band posters, beer signs, and has the feel of a hometown bar. Jessie, the bartender, let us know that leashed and friendly dogs are allowed inside and that you can bring your own food (they formerly served food, but have since stopped). We had a great time watching college basketball on their big screen TV, checking out original game-used stadium seating from the now demolished Veterans Stadium, and played some old-school games in the back. They will have game nights weekly.
Surprised by how cool it was inside, very unassuming from the outside.

Cool neighborhood bar. Bartender was friendly and helpful. Had a great drink but don’t know what it was called. It was iced tea, vodka, and a shot of Coke made inside the iced tea cardboard container. Would go back for drinks.

Great stumble upon. Cash only, atm inside. Great bartender. Beer was cold enough to feel like it was stored on ice, which you don’t find often enough!!!! Big wall tv in there for your sports enjoyment.
Doug made us feel more than welcome as our of towers, and gave us great options to check out, would definitely go back. Chill vibe.
