If you get an opportunity, you must give Monahans a chance. My favorite cheesesteaks, even a chicken cheesesteak with fried onions, sweet peppers, and bacon, it will have you talking to it, lol. There are plenty of spirits to choose from, and the beer is always cold. Some vegetarian options. Delish apps and the app pretzel with their honey mustard is phenomenal. Safe, comfortable, clean, and great people. Non-smoking, but you can on their outdoor patio, which is heated during colder weather. TV's everywhere.

Nice neighborhood bar and restaurant. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It has the atmosphere of a fine Irish Pub. I plan to go back when I’m in the area.

The staff served a guy who was clearly drunk and kept serving him until he fell place sucks

Great food and great place to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday! A little on the small side and locals can get a little touchy when big parties take over tables, but it’s understandable. The food is amazing! The bar staff are friendly, and I love the Irish charm of the place! The Bloody Mary and the stout are a sure winner!

Great place to experience the authentic Philly culture and community without feeling like a tourist… yes everyone will know everyone else but you, but a very welcoming group with employees and patrons.

Great "Cheers" like atmosphere! Found it while staying a night prior to flight out of Philly. Best Philly cheese steak! Get a mini, they're big enough to share! Many items to choose from.

The food prices there are very competitive. The food here is really good. The service is good and the parking is free. It's an Irish pub.

4 adults & 2 kids staying at a nearby hotel prior to flight out of Phil. We needed dinner so used Yelp and found Monahan's. Glad we did. Great food & service. Nice local spot that makes me wish I lived closer.
