Closed for renovation currently. But they don’t say it anywhere smh

Early 2000s Philly bar vibe. Authentic. Gritty. A lost art in what bars should be when you just wanna grab a drink and have good music.

Had an amazing night at the Raven. New to Philly and found this lil gem on accident. Great music, friendly crowd and the sweet bartender Tyler made it even better with his original cocktails that I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of

Just dirty, overcrowded, overpriced, watered down. But the vibe can be fun sometimes. Just pregame. Not a fan really

The Raven lounge is one of my favorite haunts in Philadelphia. You will always meet interesting people and you can totally just hang out and relax.

Legends started here. Awesome place for stand-up and Thursday open mics. Beers are 6 bucks but that's not that bad for Center City. Staff is also very cool.

If you like dive bars, this is the spot. Cool people from every walk of life gathered together vibing out.

Wow… this place used to be so fun, I’m not sure what happened. I showed up on a Thursday night to celebrate a friend’s 21st birthday. To start, the main floor toilet was filled with feces and there was no sign on the door saying “Out of Order.” The upstairs bathroom was no better, there was no soap and only hand sanitizer. Speaking of upstairs, it was comedy night and the “comedians” were all recycling the same old misogynist jokes. Boo boo, tomato, boo. The drinks were also ridiculously expensive. $15 for a vodka cranberry? Really? Eventually the owner kicked the birthday girl out because she was wearing high heels and needed assistance getting to the upstairs bathroom, ya know, because the main bathroom was absolutely disgusting. Horrible, dirty place with horrible staff.

Raven Lounge - What a dump - I mean listing this place as a dive-bar would be too nice to it. It is absolutely filthy and it is shocking that it keeps its licence to operate. There was nothing fun about it at all.... It was saturday night but it was mostly empty despite everything else on that road being full.
