Dive Bars near Upper Darby

“I been going to Mickey's for over 30 years. I took my Sean to the dentist across the street. So I wandered in and all the friends I made back in the day were there and remembered me. The bartender remembered the day my wife Patrice died, I held her in my arms til her last breath. Her will to live was so powerful that she pulled the whole oxygen tent into her mouth.When she finally let it out that was it.I told everyone that I was staying. Eventually people stated to leave but I wouldn't let go of my precious girlI couldn't accept it. Our Heather finally had to leaveI stayed and held her until she lost all her color and turned to ice. I realized she was gone. And I finally could stop cuddling her like she loved.I walked out of that hospital in a trance. I drove down to Mickey's and walked in but I couldn't talk. The guys knew something was wrong. They were giving me space . I got a vodka and went to the front door to just gaze at the sky. The bartender came over and asked if I was alright. Stood in the doorway with me.Almost instantly the sky opened up and the fiercest hail storm We ever seen just came outta nowhere and everyone was in awe, gaping at the intensity and I turned around and said Patrice just died and these are the tears of heaven ? ?They were stunned, they all loved her!!Anyone that knew her loved her. You could not help it. I was the luckiest man in the world ⚘️ and suddenly she was gone. Beem 15 years and I still grieve.I cry every time I have to talk about her.ICry when I think about her. So today in Mickey's I was overwhelmed with emotions when they welcomed me and remembered that Hailstorm . I cried uncontrollable. I am just trying to get this out my friends. Sometimes it helps“

“ATMOSPHERE WAS GRRRRRREAT.. DRINKS WERE GOOD ..THE DJ. WAS POPPING WITH ALL THE HITS...“

“Quality place for good spirits and great tv s for sports“

“Cheers !!!“

“This place was amazing. The drinks were cheap. But more importantly the staff was great the bouncer was so cool and kind. The guy in charge of making sure nobody cut in the bathroom line was on point (I hate when people cut in line) the bartenders were so quick with the refills. Music was fast and upbeat jazz. I will 100% be back if I ever come.

P.s. met a cool guy named John (very tall, Curly hair) if anyone sees him tell him thanks for being so friendly.“

“Great people!! Thanks so much Doug for taking care of us and letting us order in amazing cheese steaks you recommended! We will definitely be back my new/old-school nostalgic favorite stop any time I'm out in Philly! Great to meet some new phriends and phamily! Rock on🤘👍❤️💯💥“

“great foods , creative tastes. never leaving you unsatisfied fd“

“Bartender Bobby is great!!“

“I LOVE this place. Ive lived in West for the past 2 years and they have been my go to. Food and drinks are affordable and delicious. You will get full, maybe leave with extras and definitely feel your ears getting a bit hot lol. Its a family run spot, supper genuine and personable. But on that same note you need to be ready to potentially have a wait. They often only have 1/2 people behind the bar, 1 food runner and a few heads in the kitchen, so just be kind they are trying. Also the beer garden in the back is the cherry on top, such a gem…ive brought maybe 3 different friend groups here and they all ADORE it.“
