50 Best Cocktail Bars near Plymouth Meeting

“We stopped by on our way home Wednesday afternoon and sat at the inside bar. Laura was the bartender on duty. The service was amazing, and the food was delicious! Laura was so friendly and funny. We had so much fun talking with her. She truly made the experience over the top!“

“Giving it a five star and everything four star because it is pretty much the best bar food, and atmosphere you’re going to get! Prices are perfect drink responsibly.
I would say if you’re going there to enjoy your time, get a couple drinks, and shoot some pool definitely go during the day, nights are fun, just be cautious people can get a little wild.“

“I had a great brunch. Loved the atmosphere. Food was excellent. I’ll definitely be back“

“What an awesome bar! Think a sophisticated cocktail bar, but run by the people who run your favorite neighborhood bar! The staff were super friendly and clearly happy to be there. The cocktails had ingredients where you weren't sure they were going to go together, but then any questions were dispelled when you tried them. Stopped there for drinks before going to dinner around the corner... and stopped there again after dinner since the drinks were so amazing!“

I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about Pearls on the Corner in Fishtown! We chose Pearls to host my 30th birthday celebration and surprise proposal, and from start to finish, they went above and beyond in every possible way.

There were so many moving parts between a 30th birthday celebration and a surprise proposal, and they handled everything with such professionalism, flexibility, and enthusiasm. They were there for every little detail and truly did everything and more to make sure the night went smoothly.

And the best part? Our guests were absolutely blown away. Everyone kept talking about how beautiful the space was, how amazing the drinks were, how wonderful the staff was, and how much fun they had. Seeing everyone I love having such an incredible time made the night even more special.

10/10 — truly an unforgettable experience!“

“This was my second visit to Ripplewood Whiskey & Craft, and my first time experiencing their happy hour—and it did not disappoint. The menu had a great variety, and I enjoyed both the drinks and the pork bao buns.

A standout “happy accident” was ordering the pretzel rolls with truffle butter… absolutely amazing. That alone is worth coming back for.

The bartenders were attentive and provided great service throughout our visit. We also tried the deviled eggs, which were just okay for me—the mustard base was a bit too strong for my taste.

Overall, Ripplewood is a lovely spot with a relaxed vibe and nice outdoor seating in the back. It’s a great place for drinks, small bites, and a chill evening out.“

“Killer cocktails! We will be back!“

“We had a fantastic meal tonight! The blackened fish I had was cooked perfectly and my husbands burger was awesome too! Drinks were fun and they even have various mocktails. We didn’t have room for dessert this time but next visit we will try!“

“Been coming here for two years since we moved to the area. They staff are amazing. The coffe and drinks are quality and tasty. They always have new and interesting additions to the menu. Cool atmosphere. Gets crowded, but that because all the cool kids hang out here! So glad to have them in the neighborhood.“

“We were celebrating obtaining our marriage license and had a wonderful server by the name of Alex who really made the night memorable. Food was delicious. happy we celebrated there.“

“Just love this place! Dirty martini was great , and the curated selection of outside NA offerings never disappoints. My wife and I love going here to hang out especially for a pre dinner mocktail .. I end up shazaming an embarrassing amount. I suppose once is embarrassing. Anyway, love this place!“

“Great drinks and the music allows for good conversation without being quiet. Awesome tiki bar!“

“Only been there twice, but was enthralled each time. These guys get it. The service is friendly and impeccable, the food is prepared meticulously, the dishes are creative and high quality. Love the mood of the place; the ambience is perfect. Highly recommend their jazz brunch.“

“Loved this place on a Thursday!!!! Great crowd and Music!!!! My Bartender Janice aka 'FANCY" was the BEST!!!!! Go check her out, you won't be disappointed.....“

“Izzy's is my Fri night go to after getting off the train. James, Brian, Justin and the rest of the crew provide a warm welcome and great service. The hand rolls are excellent! It's really noisy and space is tight, and every once in a while I meet someone new for an interesting conversation. And it's just fine with everyone if I roll up with my New Yorker magazine for a quick bite on the way home!“

“A rather pleasant weekday afternoon, though the breeze suggested fall was coming. We were surprised to find a comfortable table so easily for our date night. Drinks were good, if a bit pricey. We’ll be back when we want a quiet drink.“

“Everything is great! From the bar to the appetizer's To the servers! The food is out of this world!! Highly recommend it!“

“I'm a big martini person, so I had to stop by after hearing this was one of the more unique cocktail spots in Philadelphia.

I came specifically for the espresso martini topped with grated Parmesan cheese. It sounds strange, but surprisingly it worked really well and added something different without overpowering the drink.

Even without the viral twist, the martini itself was solid. You could tell it was well made.

Service was great, the location was convenient, and the whole experience lived up to the hype. Definitely a fun place for anyone who enjoys creative cocktails.“

“One of my favorite places to eat! Well-crafted food with a sense of adventure. Always delicious. Incredible margaritas too. Service is attentive (calling you out, Alex- you are wonderful!). Can’t go wrong.“

“We got the pork buns, chicken on a stick, handmade pork and cabbage dumplings and general Tao’s chicken. The food was delicious. The pork buns are especially good. The service was fast. I would definitely recommend this place. The price is good.“

“Very friendly service, very pleasant surroundings. Perfect place to stop and have a light nosh. There’s ciders are quite good, but on the dry side, which I especially appreciate. They also have excellent local wines and white snack snacks. Highly recommend recommended.“

“This is my go-to spot for lunch and happy hour! Laura rocks! :)“

“Delicious food, beautiful scenery, very friendly staff.“

“Pretty atmosphere and good food“

“Just left this place. My bartender may very well have been the best bartender ever. Attentive. Considerate. She was the kind of person you wanted to be your best friend within a few minutes. I’d gladly come back simply to enjoy her company again or the atmosphere of the bar again. P.S another bonus star… the hostess had fantastic, chic taste in clothing. If that pushes you towards dining here.“

“Stopped by Superior yesterday after a hot, dusty day at the Conshohocken Mill! Ran into your tasting rep and loved your product 💯👍“

“5 Stars!!! Most authentic Napoletana Pizza found this side of the pond! The starter dough was brought over from Naples,IT. The oven from Italy. If you’re in Philly, you must go and taste for yourself. I lived in Naples, Italy for over 5 years…Chefs Joe & Angela nailed it again. Oh and if you haven’t tried their restaurant, Cicala, is right across the hall in the historic divine Lorraine hotel. 5 stars!!!“

“Great dive-ish bar whose Sunday Happy Hour (5-7) is taking on legendary status. Great craft beer selection and interesting cocktails. Friendly place. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing, delicious. creative food!❤️“

“Such a friendly local Pub and beers are delicious!“

“Went to Manayunk for dinner on a whim and had a drink and food at Mia Ragazza. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. Larissa at the bar recommended a good light lager with the Margherita pizza and Ceasar style brussel sprouts. Everything was cooked perfectly. Looking forward to future visits.“

“A fun, unique experience for quick bite/drink or to sit down and have a full meal at. Sandwich portions were generous - just remember they put the fries in the sandwich (at least for the one I ordered). The mixed drinks were delicious and creative. The menu itself is not large, but enough to cover the basis in terms of vegetarians and some other restrictions.

The atmosphere make this a fun and unique place to be, even though it can be both intimate and loud at same time. I would visit again.“

“Good food, great service, charming atmosphere, friendly staff.“

“Such amazing and creative food, it was really good and the ambience was lovely outside! Server was so helpful with suggestions and food and drinks were fantastic!“

“what a great place with delicious drinks and a wonderful tour.“

“TCR conshy is one of the premiere cigar lounges in the area. Others don't have all of the amenities offered here. Excellent drink selection, steady cigar selection with rotating stock, live music on certain nights, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and to top it all off one of the best smoke ventilation systems around!“

“Love Fishtown Social! I always look forward to Mystery Wine Mondays, where you can get $10 glasses of wine and get to guess what kind of wine it is. If you win, you get the bottle! I've really come to look forward to Mondays now, which is hard for anyone to say. Their selection is great, and their entire staff is super knowledgeable and kind :) def check it out if you're a wine lover and in the area!“

“We decided to drop into this East Falls restaurant for Sunday brunch, and we're so glad we did. My husband ordered the heuves chorizo and I ordered the Cresta Omelet. Both were delicious!! My husband also asked for poblano pepper in his, and they accommodated his request. The restaurant is warm and inviting with exposed brick. Prices are very reasonable and the servings were generous. Management was super welcoming, and our server, Anna, was awesome. We will definitely be back!!“

“Seriously incredible. The chicken tortilla soup is my favorite soup east of the Mississippi. Perfect amount of spice, chicken, crispy torts, and avacado. Have tried majority of different entrees all very good, staff is so welcoming. Never change the soup“

“Great fun! Awesome music, cool crowd. Great place to dance and celebrate life!! Yummy drinks!“

“I had a private party (20 Guests) on a Saturday afternoon. Everything went PERFECT! Olivia Karlin was an amazing host and event organizer! She informed me that I needed to pick three meals and two starters for my menu. I had the room for 2 hours and it was so much fun! Checking out was easy and everything went the way we planned it. Would definitely recommend!!“

“I had a chronic urticaria last year, ever since then i have be visiting the clinic and taking different kinds of medicine but yet no improvement. Few months ago it got worse, the inching becomes unbearable, sometimes it spread all over my body and it almost affected my lungs. One faithful day, Someone saw me when I was at the supermarket here in ATL when I was shopping for some groceries, she walked up to me, we had a nice chat where she told me her experience when she had the same problem, and she was able to get rid of it permanently with herbs from dr festy, I requested for the Dr's contact and i ordered the medicine because at that point I was willing to try anything just to get rid my chronic urticaria. It affected my social life negatively, I hardly associate with people and I became depressed. So after using the herbs I was completely cured and my life is back to normal. I'll keep creating awareness about dr festy's herbal medicine by sharing my story because I know how it feels battling with chronic urticaria. Are you struggling with herpes, autism, HIV, infertility, HPV, and chronic health conditions, including diabetes, certain stages of cancer, arthritis, and anxiety disorders contact Dr Festy for proper consultations.

“I had the Smoke Show pizza and it paired perfectly with the Goats Beard Alpha Acid Trip beer. Our server was excellent!! Highly recommend coming here! We will be back!“

“Took my husband here to celebrate his birthday. I started off with the fried green tomato tower, all the different flavors was like a party in my mouth. Next I had the lemon, dill salmon, I'm not a huge fan of asparagus but that was nicely cooked and tasted good. A nice size homade biscuit and jam. My husband had the smoked mac n cheese, the catfish po boy and spinach. The spinach was nicely seasoned and tasted so fresh. This was our first time here and we will definitely be going back.“

“honestly we almost walked past this place but im so glad we didnt stop. the vibe inside is like nothing else in ambler, really comfortable and chill. i got the burger and it was juicy, came out hot and the fries were crispy just how i like them. my friend had the salmon and she kept saying how fresh it tasted. the person behind the bar was super nice and checked on us a few times. whole meal felt easy and good without being stuffy. definitely coming back next time im in town.“

“The venue was almost perfect! It is well appointed, the bathrooms super clean. The set up was great. The bartender was awesome! She was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Friendly and efficient. Good parking, well lighted exterior. I would recommend this place any day of the week.Thanks.“
