“Definitely a dive bar atmosphere, bar, pool, tv's, jukebox and a bunch of locals. Food was acceptable since there's not much other choice at the later hours in Paulsboro. Not amazing, but it filled me up and tasted alright. Got it to go. Bartender was nice and patient with my indecisive self.“
“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 ??“
“Came here for the espresso martini crawl and would come back for a regular meal. The staff was friendly and approachable. The Hugh Hefner espresso martini was a unique twist, at first I wasn’t too sure about it, but after the second sip, it was one of my favorites. Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.“
“Awesome experience. Very clean, open and overall fantastic. The dogs had plenty of room to roam and were pleasant. Both the waitstaff and management were fantastic and the food is amazing. Best brussels sprouts I have ever had, and that should tell you about the rest of the menu. Highly recommend!“
“We went around the happy hour time. 4-6 pm and you have to be seated at the bar for the happy hour prices. The service was good, attentive staff. The food was good to my surprise. The crispy cauliflower and mushroom pita pizza are a must-try. The Thai chili wings and Buffalo wings were deliciously sauced, along with my margarita. The Smash burger is a must-try too. It was a cool laid-back happy hour spot. I will be back to try the rest of the menu.“
“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“
“Great put stop spot for a quick bite before heading out of town from PHL. Great service, food was tasty and quickly prepared, fair prices and great bar/comfort food options. Locally source sandwich breads make for amazing sandwiches that don't disappoint. Looking forward to stopping here again the next time I am in town.Parking: Lot behind the building had ample spaces.“
“We had a good time here. Food was awesome. Our server was excellent. The only issue I had was the tipping situation. I was with a party of 6. We normally tip good. But this place takes out 20%. . I don't like a place telling me what to tip. That's not how that works. 80 dollars in a tip. Tipping how much is up to the customers.“
“As a vegetarian, I often struggle to find meat-free brunch options that can compare to traditional items. Sidecar Bar is the best brunch i’ve had in Philly! I got the Hippy Benny and it was PHENOMENAL!!! The ingredients were fresh and the potatoes were incredible. I went with a large group and some other favorites were the pancakes, the breakfast flatbread, and the Texan Benny. The atmosphere was fun and upbeat while still remaining casual and family friendly. Our server was friendly and attentive and it was all around a great experience! Definitely make Sidecar Bar your next Philly food destination!“
“Kelly's Corner has the BEST food and most amazing staff from the kitchen, to management to everyone behind the bar - all great people. Their fresh squeezed Orange Crushes are a must try! Definitely recommend stopping by around the holidays, their Christmas decorations get you in the Spirit.“
“Pat, the man!! First time there tonight and came due to closeness of location and reviews… but blackened chicken salad and wings to go were both A+Pat’s presence and convos were representation of what a local bar should be! When you walk into a bar and don’t feel awkward to hang by yourself and enjoy a moment… this is the place to be. I will be back soon, thanks for a great time!“
“Not a Chiefs fan but stopped into this corner bar and had such a great experience! The owner, bartender and the locals were so nice! Was given a free burger because I was hungry and was backed up with a free beer from a local. I am so thankful for stopping in! ❤️“
“Great place with amazing cocktails. They have great Indian chai flavors martinis. A bit on sweeter side but must try. The bartenders very friendly and had a good time. Modern simple sleek interior! I think this is my new fav cocktail bar. A great addition to city specially to the area!“
“service was impeccable! everyone seemed to be on a conveyor belt with how smoothly things came out to us. went about 430-5 for dinner. a few people in the bar, not too crowded. our waitress was so nice! I order dry wings which were crispy but juicy. & I ordered the chicken joseph. i ordered it for my dad who's name was Joe & Stingers was one of his favorite restaurants... the dish was plated & executed perfectly - just wasn't to my taste, sauce/gravy for chicken was a little too sweet. my mother ordered the same dish & loved it! so it's just my taste. looking forward to going back & trying new items! 10/10 recommend!“
“If you are looking for a great place with amazing food and customer service look no further. Chef Pat and the rest of the kitchen really put a lot of hard work and care into the food that they make and I can say I’ve never had a bad dish here. Then there is KC, Vicki and Nicole behind the bar and they are so attentive, friendly and make the best drinks! Honestly can’t say a bad thing about this place!“
“I had the scallops which were perfect with potatoes and green beans which were delicious but my potatoes were not warm. Had a side Caesar which looked like a large Caesar dressing and lettuce were fresh and cold. I haven’t had dinner in there in a long time but I remembered it was always good used to go for all u can eat spaghetti and clams or mussels a must try hidden gem to enjoy a nice dinner“

“Cool table tennis spot. I attended an event here and there was plenty of food and drinks and friendly staff. Fun environment so I would recommend checking it out if you are in the area. If you are from out of town, there is a parking garage right across the street but it was $30 for 2 hours so just keep that in mind.“
“We stopped by after the Philly Love Run for a much needed brunch. It wasn’t full and we had a nice table upstairs by the window. The bartender is awesome! He made a perfect spicy Bloody Mary and was funny and helpful. Thanks for making out lunch great!!The menu online isn’t exactly what they have (at least for brunch) but what we had hit the spot. The biscuits and gravy is a huge portion. Served with eggs and delicious crispy potatoes. My friend got the burrito sans tortilla. Also great. So glad we tried this place. Would definitely go back!“
“The staff was absolutely amazing, Annie was super friendly and kind. Our first time visiting Philadelphia and she recommended several places to check out in brewery town. This place has a great selection of beer and lavish cocktails. The food was amazing, I really loved the pork burnt ends. The pho was delicious, fish and chips were nicely battered and tasty. I will be back and I recommend you give them a try!“
“Recently renovated, a great spot for a dive bar, a few pool tables, plenty of TVs and the bartenders are great. If you're local definitely check it out. I've been there a few times and never had any issues and everything came out great and everyone was friendly.Parking: Definitely park across the street in the lot, they only have like 6 or so spots in front of the bar.“
“I visited on a thursday with my buddy who goes often. Being a workday night it seemed pretty active yet still a relaxed environment. Bartenders were very friendly and attentive, additionally the wings were great. Will definitely return.Parking: It is south philly so obviously parking is a bit challenging, but I was able to find plenty of spots about a block and half or so away.“
“I always enjoy the southwest salad and addressing. Really don't know much about the mixed drinks. But they do look good. I'm going to go back and try something different. I'm sure it'll be good. It's a well run restaurant now that it has a newer owner from years ago.Parking: Watch the meters because havertown loves to give a ticket. But in general, it's cheap.It's only a Dollar or so to eat dinner, relax for parking. If you go after the meter time which is dinner late, there was an problem but check.“
“Pappou's for the win. Everyone in there is so nice, they have a great bar with the best beers and make tremendous pizza. Well located too. Nothing but positive feedback for Team Pappou, keep up the stellar efforts. Also love the logo of the turtle, you guys are the best. Let me know when you get t-shirts back in stock!“
“Sophisticated, Safe, Grown & Sexy is the first thing that comes to mind! Sophia's Lounge has become a community asset that is clean, fun and full of great people. Food and drinks are priced right & there's a great atmosphere for parties and events too.“
“Seriously, an old staple, simple, straightforward, no frills slamming porkroll egg and cheese sandwiches. The amount of porkroll you'll see them slice up is crazy.It's an old general store with old school candy not often seen around and Charlie's Chips in the nostslgic tins.You'll likely have met the owner without even knowing... everyone seems polite, which has served me. It's the tiniest kitchen and deli. Everything's tasted good.. soups, sandwiches, and deli foods.If you sit, you'll see one plate at a time come out, but it works here. Slow down, have a seat, and enjoy a good meal, good portion at a good price.Great place to grab food before or after a nice walk in Allaire parkTime forgot this place, but in a good way.P.S. Good is used a lot in this review... it's not mediocre.. there is just a goodness and simplicity to this place, and it's a pure compliment .“
“This is by far the best cheesesteak I’ve ever had. Came here with my wife and father-in-law. Amazing service and crazy good food. Parking is a little tough to get to and the drink menu could use a few sours but overall it’s a 10/10 would visit again place. The owner and the waitress made us feel super welcome and were open to suggestions which is always nice.“
“Neighborhood joint. Good food and drinks are nicely priced. Good for "gals/guys/friends" nite.Parking: The street has metered parking. The side streets are free, however they are residential, so there are few spots.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps and they have a table near the door that is lower than the bar.“
“Been here 3 times. First time I had Cheeseburger and fries ( Banging). Told a friend of mine, Hokey. He went 1st Friday in March. He said I was right.Second time I went I brought a young friend of mine studying for the Priesthood. I bought him a Burger and Fries of course I had a Cheeseburger. 3rd time was Wednesday, the usual. Got to watch some basketball talked to guys I never met about Sports, Music and Movies. I struck Gold. It’s around the corner from me. Told people in my building they’re coming often. If you’re in South Philly and going to a game stop in. Why pay those highway robbery prices at the Stadium and Ballfields for tasteless food. Or just go for no reason.Kevin GaGa won’t steer you wrong“
“Helped so much for the luncheon I had for after my twin sisters funeral.Diane is a great bar tender and person all the way around.THANK YOU SO MUCH DIANE FOR ALL YOU DID FOR ME AND BILLY AND MY SISTER. LOTS OF LOVE FOR HER. THANK YOU AGAIN SWEETIE DOR ALL YOU DID!!!!✌️✌️✌️✌️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“
“Been going here for about two years. Delightful neighborhood bar with great prices, friendly staff, good food with a rotating menu (always try the grilled cheese special), and a great tavern vibe. Pool upstairs (if you’re lucky enough to get there first). I’ve since moved out of the neighborhood to Point Breeze, but my friends and I still make the hike over to Watkins at least once a week because that’s how much we love this place. This is the stuff!“
“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 ????“
“Barmaids are always welcoming to you as you're coming in. Good service, good food. Nice size shots for your money. For more fun there's also a pool table in the back. So leave your negativity outside and unwind inside with new and old friends/family bar. Wheelchair accessible too.“
“Hidden on Samson Street between 15 & 16th Streets in Philadelphia, you’ll find 1518 Bar & Grill. Hitting at happy hour was a treat, an extensive appetizer menu is a treat for those who are indecisive like my beautiful wife. Simple things like Mozzarella Sticks, delicious Meatballs in marinara, Fries Pickles and a surprising Shrimp Tempura plate that included mushrooms, zucchini and apples. I this was near home, 1518!would be our place, the hole in the wall with class, Everything was so good.Now, the beer: Is there ever a big beer that may be a little too drinkable? Perpetual IPA would be on the list, hoppy and bitter, yet smooth and clean with a candied fruit sweetness making it very drinkable. I could crush these, but would regret it later.IG: @crafty_fireman“
“Ordered wings for take out, I devoured all 10 wings in less than 10 minutes thats how good they were also extra brownie points bc they didn't put celery in with my wings which I'm not a fan of.11/10 recommended absolutely fantastic wings“
“I love , love, love this place. I found it accidentally while driving towards Market Street. We saw a grill and the sweet smell of barbecue. We immediately stopped and ordered ribs, hotdogs, hot sausages, potato salad, green beans, and Mac cheese . Everything was delicious!! Shout out to my girl Shay . Thank you so much for good food and your hospitality.?“
“All I can say is I absolutely love this place mixed crowd with beautiful people, everyone's welcomed and the staff is beyond wonderful. If your an introvert the place is still for you, no one harasses anyone here and it's is very very minimal drama going on. Best bar/sports bar I've ever stepped i !“
“We were traveling 4 generations deep following the San Diego Padres on an east coast trip. We did all the research we could on a nice B&B, with proximity to a bar and the stadium and we ended up a block away from this place. The neighborhoods vibe was safe and friendly, and the people inside this particular bar were cool and classy without a doubt. Shot out to the cool Martin who didn’t disappoint with anything he made. We shall return.“
“Well as the former DJ for “Truth Social Club” formerly “Ginn’s”….. I gotta say it was actually nice to return for a visit… The food was good, the barmaids are nice….didn’t get to see Brenda the owner, but DJ Bang went to work on that music…..“
“Just reopened. Cute inside, loved the bar. The owner was so friendly and nice. We went early on a weekday, basically as soon as they opened. She spent a lot of time chitchatting with us. It’s a little out of our way but we will be back, because the vibe was really welcoming and comfortable.“
