“I just left and I already need more.This place doesn't doesn't just remind you that you love bacon... It It makes you want to love it more.Not to mention, the BBQ. Whoa.The bartenders are friendly and the vibe is right. I'll be back too often.“
“Great food. Best burger I have had HANDS DOWN!!!! Good vibe!!! They have pool here. I believe other bar games. Drink are good. We had the Tiki Tiki cocktail. They have 3 floors I was on the 3rd floor...no elevator but its cool. FYI Don't get too buzzed so u don't miss a step....lol I would go “
“The facility is clean. The staff is friendly, courteous and knowledgeable.With 12 simulators using the TrackMan technology, you can get your reps.A full bar and innumerable TVs throughout paired with fantastic food makes for an encompassing experience.To save money look at a membership or packages (seriously I frequent the spot 2-5x a week).“
“Had a slice n a cheese steakfood came out fastSlice wasn't heated up n cheese steak very basic roll n meat average n seemed not heated either,most strange bc came out very fasthuge selection of ready pies/slices on display..( Just specify you want Hot food ) if u gobe best to go early in day for slices so not dried up and or order a fresh pie or I'm assuming plain slices get replenished thru out dayPretty lady bartender was friendly and acts as waitress It looked clean n prices average for center city and it's a sports bar too“
“Parking: This is located in Chinatown, so mainly street parking. Be prepared to drive around and look for a spot. There are parking garage around the block because Bar-Ly is located right across from the convention center and diagonal from Reading terminal.This is definitely a to-go place if you and your group would like to find a place to chill or gather to watch a sport game. Not only do they have their own bar, but also have a wide variety of food on their menu! Running from Viet cuisine to sushi to pizza and wings! The vibe is just energetic once you step your foot in, especially during a sport game like the Superbowl! But I would suggest make early reservations during those big game nights. There is also a party room available for guests to book for a party.Food & Drinks: I tried their wings with mango habanero sauce, salmon pizza, and one of their drink with lychee and ginger beer that I can’t recall right off my head. The drink was pretty good. Salmon pizza was wonderful. The wings, on the other hand, I feel are a bit too dry and not enough sauce. Everything else was definitely not bad at all.“
“There wasn't much room and we were just about to leave, but the waitress Azra immediately accompanied us. We drank Watermelon mint, she did her job quickly and was very friendly. We didn't expect to encounter a Turk. I guess he was the only Turk. Thank you for the nice conversation and the nice drinks. The place was very nice in terms of decoration, there are not many hookah places like this around here. Thanks again to Azra, see you again??“
“This was a fantastic experience. The team at 5i was super great, and the bays were a ton of fun! Lots of room to move around as a party. We were able to keep separate tabs. Our waiter Antony was super kind and helpful! I would highly recommend!!“
“I recently stopped in Black Sheep to grab a bite to take home.The bartender was very friendly and very willing to help.The bar was full so I sat off to the side.My beer was very cold which I loved.Food was really good I had a burger and fries.Sadly they were out of tater tots, but overall a great experience.“
“I actually do not usually do restaurant reviews, but was so please with Con Murphy that I felt like I had to share. I feel like there are many restaurants in Philly, and this one deserves more attention. We were day-tripping Philly and enjoy seeking out the local Irish pubs. We were charmed by the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere! It was noisy and small, in a fun and happy way. The TWO bars were well-stocked. We came with the family and everyone was pleased. We started with the Parmesan Truffle French Fries and they were exemplary especially paired with the Aeoli. The blackened Grouper sandwich was "sublime" according to my son who works at a restaurant! My daughter didn't prefer the crust thinness of the flatbread, but enjoyed the potatoe soup. The Irish fare was well done. My son ordered the shepard's pie and my husband and I both ordered the beef stew. I am picky of "Irish Food" bc so many places do not give it the attention it deserves, but everything was prepared beautifully. If you like very rich, decadent broths and hearty, meaty portions, then the stew is for you. The bread it was served with was unbelievably flavorful and had a tender center and crusty exterior. The stew tasted like it had slow-cooked for hours and did not dissapoint. I ordered the "Tullamore Gold" cocktail and it was a tad sweet, but flavorful. I wish I had paired a red wine or whisky with the stew. My husband had a canned apple cider which was tasty.“
“Great smaller venue for meeting up before or after games while in Philly. Food was incredible and surprisingly higher quality pizza too. Service was top too with plenty of staff checking on us. They deserve the five star reviews and quickly becoming a Philly staple.“
“Tuesday trivia night at Tapster is the place to be. The trivia organizers are great. The self service beer machines are super cool and easy to use. Friendly staff. Love that you can bring outside food, but also love that they have popcorn!!“
“We were in town for a concert on Friday night and stayed up on 4th near Arch. We found ourselves walking down to South Street, and did no pre-visit research on where to go. A lot of places are shut down, probably victims of the pandemic. We walked along the street and found Wooly Mammoth, figured it was time to stop. We'd already had dinner, so I can't speak to the menu but stuff being brought out to other patrons at the bar looked good. If you like wings and fries and tots and stuff to go with your beer, you're at the right spot. I'm a fan of craft beer so I like to try the locals. I don't need bud light or sam adams when I'm visiting a city with actual local brewing. We'd been to Yards the day before and I found that the only draught beer they had which I'd never had was Stacy's Mom from Evil Genius. Then I fell back on an old favorite of Magic Hat #9 (classic).We switched to the cider they had (can't recall what it was named) and enjoyed the Islanders vs. Flyers, and the 90s mix the bartender had running on Spotify. Good vibe for us, we're 90s music kids. the vibe felt honest and local, like actual people from this actual neighborhood actually come into this spot. That's always a good sign. Left around midnight to walk back to the hotel. Really good time here at Wooly Mammoth!“
“Fun little dive bar with a huge beer list, ski ball, and pool. I usually come for the food though. They have a built in food truck. The vibes here are super fun and they always have some form of a sports game on too.Vegetarian options: The pesto grilled cheese is to die for!Wheelchair accessibility: No steps, and a handicap accessible bathroom“
“My wife and I went here Saturday night and had a good time. Happen to sit next to the owner at the bar. Nice guy, making sure everybody was enjoying themselves. Food and drinks were good. Going to check out R&B night tonight. D’s Save Vince and Bianca a table.“
“The food was great but more than that the environment created from my server Chrissy was fantastic, her inviting smile immediately set the tone for the level of service my group and I were going to receive. She was not only attentive but more importantly made us feel like valued customers and created a welcoming atmosphere like we had all been friends for years. I will definitely be returning and am hopeful I can get Chrissy or somebody as excellent as her the next time.“
“Went here with some friends from Delaware out of town. Great atmosphere and plenty of tables. We went up to the second floor to visit a friend and more of mine. My friends even STILL got a pool game and I was catching up with the homies for a long long minute. Definitely popular and busy but in the best way possible. Hug/tip the bartenders. Solid 9.5/10“
“If a dictionary had pictures and you looked up bar, it would be this. What that means, the prices are good, the service was friendly and accomodating, food is middle of the road, atmosphere is non-existent except for the quality of the people around who were all very nice. Oh and perhaps most importantly, there is a pool table ??“

“Recently ate at this PJs, and had Dan as the server. His personable attitude and genuine demeanor made it a great experience. The cheesesteak egg rolls were delicious as usual, and wicked chicken nachos were incredibly delicious. 10 out of 10 would recommend.“
“Came for the wings and this place did not disappoint! A typical sports bar and really good food! For the wings, we got the fat daddy sauce and man did they definitely NOT skimp on the size of these jumbo wings! Nice and crispy, lots of meat and great flavors with the sauce. I already know I wanna come back to try more of their sauces. Got some loaded tots and some pierogis as well. Delicious! Sat at the bar, service was great. Will definitely be back!“
“NEVER had anything bad from Nitty's. Pizza is phenomenal, Pizzaz fiercely rivals, no I lied, outright beats & corners the market against the usual Pizzaz contenders of South Philly. Owner/operator Frank is a stand-up neighborhood guy who always greets you with a smile and is happy to see you as if no time has passed by since you've last seen each other. I've yet to dine in, so can't comment on the staff other than they're mostly female & very easy on the eyes, lol.Parking: It's street parking at 18th n Moyamensing so there are so many factors regarding parking. But if you're a South Philly native you already know what it's hittin for. But all in all parking shouldn't be an issue. At most you may have to walk a block or 2.Wheelchair accessibility: None that I saw“
“Treat yourself to this place, it's a mixed crowd with young and old alike. The best thing about this place is the food and the Margerita towers. The service can be slow at times but well worth the wait. I can't stress enough how good the sautéed spinach is, and I never even liked spinach. The salmon egg rolls are to die for and just wow. Go here and enjoy, the food the food the food. And did I say the food ????“
“First time ever being there and was nothing but good vibes!!!! I only got a chicken Ceasars salad but it was delicious (I ate off of my friends plate) I can't wait to go back and explore more!!! Oh and to the group of guys that I interrupted with my dance my apologies but you loved it!!!!“
“It's a great bar and grill. Family friendly for a meal enough but adult enough to go and watch the game at. 2 good sized bars, 3 outdoor patios/seating areas. They do a lot for the small spot they have. Good food, decent drinks, yeah a good towny bar.“
“A non-pretentious local gem that serves well- prepared casual and comfort foods. Items are reasonably priced and a are a good serving size, so you get your money's worth. Staff is friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The drinks are good and there is a good beer selection. It's the ideal spot to get food before or after going across the street to Tonewood Brewery.Vegetarian options: There is a veggie sandwich, the nachos can be made without chicken/beef, salads, can be modified.“
“Let me dish out the deets on the Hollywood Diner – where the glitz of Tinseltown meets the comfort of classic diner grub.Now, hold onto your hats, folks, 'cause this place is no ordinary joint. It's a swanky oasis in a sea of mundane eateries, with vibes that scream retro-chic meets Hollywood glamour. From the neon lights to the jukebox tunes, every corner oozes with old-school charm.And let me tell you about the squad holding down the fort – the staff? They're the real MVPs. Friendly, attentive, and always ready to serve up a smile alongside your order.Now, onto the main event – the grub. This ain't your grandma's diner fare, folks. This is haute cuisine disguised as classic comfort food. Sure, it might not be your bargain basement breakfast joint, but let me tell ya, every penny is worth it for the quality you're getting.Let's talk breakfast – I went for the classic eggs Benedict, and oh boy, was it a game-changer. Picture this: perfectly poached eggs, velvety hollandaise sauce that'll make you wanna do a happy dance, and ham slices so thick, you'll think you've hit the jackpot. None of that measly paper-thin stuff here – we're talking proper, hearty slices that'll have you singing praises.So, if you're in the mood for a dining experience that's as unique as it is delicious, head on down to Hollywood Diner. Trust me, folks, you won't be disappointed. It's a taste of old-school glamour with a side of culinary excellence – what more could you ask for?“
“Cap'N Cats was a Favorite of our family, especially my Dad and mines, when I was a kid in the 70s. I hadn't been there in years. So, on My Dad's birthday I brought my Mom there for Clams on the Half shell, and a Fried Oyster platter. The platters were large in portion. So much so, we had platters for the next day. }“
“We continued our Christmas-themed Tuesday afternoon bar crawl at Finn McCool's Ale House in downtown Philadelphia. The Christmas theme and decorations were excellent, but the drinks were rather pricy, and they didn't serve any food. Make sure you stop in for some great pictures and maybe a boozy hot chocolate, and you can keep the mug, but move on quickly to Philly's other Christmas-themed bars!“
“A typical sports bar, more bar seats than tables. Loud Live music and plenty of televisions. House of Brews has a wide variety of burgers with more toppings than you can imagine and a huge selection of beers, just don't ask for a proper pour on a Guinness, it doesn't happen. Service is good and cleanliness isn't bad. Not a place I would take children, it is an adult place to go.“
“Small little Irish bar downtown. It's narrow, but there is a second floor with a pool table and dart board for your enjoyment. The service is efficient and friendly. If you're looking for a laid back place to grab a pint, stop by.“
“The place was packed for the Phillys game and they had great music. Fry combo was the best paired with a blue moon. Kids got a cheese steaks, pizza and wings we also got a cutlet sandwich all the food was really food I got a patty melt burger it was not my favorite. I would not get it again. No complaints about the other food. The server was sweet and food was made to order so it came out as it was done.“
“Stopped in for brunch prior to volunteering at the Mardi Gras parade 2/25/18 and had an amazing everything omelet with tator tots! The mimosa (aside from the company of a fun group) was a great way to start the day and the service was awesome! I will be recommending U.S. Hotel Bar and Grill to friends and as the Owner/Travel Consultant of All Places Traveled, LLC, I will also be highly recommending U.S. Hotel Bar and Grill to my client's traveling to Philadelphia!“
“Food is really good as was the service, Prices are kinda rough, Myself and my son went for dinner and some games, got a steak, fish and chips 2 apps , 1 soda and 1 water, bill was $114 and then got 2 $40 with a $5 booster play cards, so that came to $96 after activation. So it came to $210 for 2 people. Pricing is really my only gripe and its a small one, I would definately go again and have fun.“
“I've been coming here since before it became The Station. Once the Station opened, it captured my heart. It's fun and diverse. The staff is helpful, kind and friendly. Drinks are properly mixed and made with love; you can literally taste the passion of mixology from the bartenders! The whole establishment is up to date on cleanliness. My favorite part of Station is if you're a single woman drinking alone, you feel safe!!! I've gone during my sober years and during my boozer years; it's fun regardless! I can't stress enough that as a petite woman, I've never felt uncomfortable here no matter how intoxicated I get. This is a safe bar for everyone!“
“The diner was outstanding, as the waiters were very friendly and are frequently around so you can order more food. The food and drinks were great, and I enjoyed it with the comfy environment of the diner. Definitely an awesome experience, would come again when I visit the area again!“
“Small South Philadelphia bar that wouldn't feel out of place for a movie set. It's a great mix of patrons from various age groups and the drinks are reasonably priced. Weekends will have a DJ playing a variety of music. No food but they have no issue with bringing food in from the pizza place across the street. Parking is a bit difficult to navigate but it is worth the time to make a stop in after a game or before a concert.“
“I love to order from apple bees on my lunch break, and EVERY single time the food is nice and warm/hot, the staff is very friendly during the hand off of my order and I’m waiting very little time for my food. The service here is phenomenal.“
“We stopped in for a quick bite and drink at Fireside Tavern. It felt like a local bar but had very welcoming staff that greeted us as soon as we entered. For the table, we ordered crabby fries, mozzarella sticks, and buffalo wings. The chef even came out to make sure there were no adjustments prior to firing up the food. Everything tasted pretty good. The wings were fried well and the mozzarella sticks were massive. If I knew the crabby fries were only just a regular order of fries with Old Bay I may have gone a different direction but the rest of the group didn’t mind them.Two things to be aware of are that they are cash only, but do have an ATM in the bar. There also was a pretty strong smell of smoke in the bar in case you are sensitive to that.“
“Visited Philly from Detroit to enjoy the local bars and non-tourist neighborhoods. The Green Room was exactly what we were looking for. Clean inside, great conversation from the locals,,, and Cassidy may be the best bartender in Philly… she was exactly what a bartender should be, engaging, kind and entertaining. The rest of the staff was awesome too! Will be coming back for sure“
“Me having a craving for crab legs my husband chose this restaurant. Not overly crowded for a Friday night we were seated immediately. Portions are well worth the money so don't trip over the prices, it took me 3 days to finish mine and we all left with food! Their garlic butter is the best I've had so far. It's very flavorful with chunks of fresh garlic cloves lightly seasoned in a butter sauce (I opted for no old bay)! All of the muscles had meat inside and weren't just empty shells like at other places. 2 of our orders were the same but with different sauces so when the food was brought to our table, the owner came over to double check the right person, got the right order. First time ever seeing plum wine on the drink menu which had a very pleasant taste. The food and service was outstanding, it turned out to be the best birthday dinner I never wanted.“
“Came here a few nights ago and while i love the vibe and atmosphere of the place, I really felt sorry for the staff in having to deal with a bunch of childish assholes that dont know how to behave like adults. I coukd feel the lovely red headed bartenders pain as she had to pretty much babysit a group of entitled morons who cant follow simple rules as well as a very miserable woman who admitted she was just there to "binge drink". God bless this little south philly Gem and its amazing staff. They are trying to make the world better for those of us who know how to commune, imbibe, and have a good time.“
“This place is my preferable place. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this place. when I want to go to a good meal, this restaurant comes straight to my head. Great and food and a large menu.well mannered staff members, and great vibes. Also, the price is affordable. I recommend this place with pleasure.“
“We stopped in to grab a quick drink after work, to our surprise we had a great time & the food was very good, especially the wings. The crowd was friendly & the music was Poppin, the bartender Heather was swift & on point. We stayed longer than expected and we will return.“

“Very very courteous and friendly , old school from the good days ,when a business put the customer 1st .when you go to favorites you will not ask yourself the question , what happened to the service in the world today .prices were right and even won some money“
“From the food to the service … everything was great. The food was served hot and in great timing. Our waiter Pedro was very pleasant and kept checking on us. I had a pleasure to meet the manger. Shakira (hope I spelled it right) was nice and patience. She understood my request and made my evening of dining that much more enjoyable. Just make sure you request to see the happy hour special from 4pm to 6pm. Remember that every Tuesday all kids eat for free with a purchase of an adult entree.“
“Mulligan’s can be very busy, but it is what leads to their high energy atmosphere. All demographics of individuals come out here to enjoy some good food and company. You’ll find older individuals, families, all the way down to the newly minted 21 year olds out for a drink with their friends. Anything crab is the best. Crab a dabs, crab cake, crab bisque will have you hooked.Kid-friendliness: Kids and families are welcome:)“

“Otts has been one of our go to places for quite some time. There food is always top notch and staff always makes us feel welcomed. The shrimp with white wine sauce is a must get and their wings are among the best that I've ever had. Otts is always a good place for sporting events or just to go and have dinner.“
“First time to Philadelphia! This was one of many! Went back 3 times during my stay! Everyone was so welcoming, nice crowd! The food was good! The bartenders was nice and helpful. Even watched a foot ball game one night. The dj played good music. It was a nice safe environment, I had a great time!“
“Everything was good except the overcooked broccoli. Problem with to go meal that was all cramped in one container and sauce slopped over everything. They need to have separate containers for each side or invest in compartmented to go containers. No one wants their food a mess.“
