Oscar's Tavern is a beloved institution in the heart of Center City, Philadelphia. This unassuming gem serves up delicious food and drinks in a cozy atmosphere. The menu is simple and affordable, featuring classic American fare like cheesesteaks, hamburgers, and sausages. The cheesesteaks are especially popular, offering generous portions, with one order providing 1 1/2 cheesesteaks. The bar boasts a great selection of adult beverages, including a signature Manhattan made with 90% whiskey. With its friendly faces, hospitable bartenders, lively music, and Philly Eagles decor, Oscar's Tavern has a chill vibe that makes it a must-visit spot. It is described as a cultural heritage site and the closest thing to a prohibition bar today. Just be sure to bring cash, as they only accept cash payments. Despite its proximity to the city center, the tavern maintains a laid-back, hole-in-the-wall vibe that's a refreshing change from the hustle and bustle of the city, making it a favorite for both locals and visitors.
