“My boyfriend and I split the Loaded Pork sandwich and The Dave (BBQ Pulled pork with Crisp Bacon and a smashed Mac & Cheese ball!). Both had tender meat and came out hot.The Dave: A TON of meat on this sandwich. Just the right amount of BBQ sauce on the meat. Served on a round roll. The Crisp Bacon added a nice crunch. Make sure you are hungry, and ask for extra napkins!Loaded Pork Sandwich: The roasted pork was seasoned nicely, complimented by Roasted Red Peppers, sauteed Spinach and a generous amount of Provolone Cheese. The pork had a nice flavor and was juicy. Served on a long roll, which was very fresh.I also ordered the Brussels Sprouts, which were some of the best I have tried. Roasted in garlic and butter, with parmesan. Some nice crisp pieces as well. A decent serving size - enough for two people to share. I would order these again!!For a treat we ordered the Bread Pudding Bites. These were phenomenal. Enough for 2-3 people to share (maybe even 4 if you each just want a few to taste). Cubes of Bread Pudding that are Deep Fried and sprinkled with powdered sugar - very tasty! Dense like bread pudding should be, but with a funnel cake vibe. They were fantastic as they are served (The bread pudding is flavored well and perfectly moist), but next time, I want to order these with a scoop of Ice Cream which would take the dessert to the next level.Overall Experience:Service was on point (never had to ask for my water to be refilled), and the food came out Quickly. There is a nice Variety to choose from - something on the menu for everyone! Clean restaurant with a Modern Vibe. Great spot for a work lunch or sit-down dinner with family. Lots of Local Beer on tap with plenty of space to sit at the bar as well if you are into the drinking scene. Filling meal and a great value for the amount of food you get. I will be back next time I am in the area for sure.Thank you for a great meal!!“
“A must try hidden gem in the neighborhood. Unique Belgian beers and stouts. Must try the Hercule Stout if you have beef of any kind. Don't underestimate the vegan seitan sandwich. Packed with umami flavor and very satisfying. Wife had the Steak Frites salade and really enjoyed it. Dessert was the lime pie - very tart and very good.“
“Friends dinner out on a rainy Saturday. Our Mr first time to Noir since the Pandemic. It's even better than we remembered. Same comfortable, relaxed, neighborhoods atmosphere. Same warm and welcoming service. And the food is inspired. Particularly good: broccoli rabe with sausage and beans starter, arancini, gnocchi in mushroom gravy, short rib, and (amazing) spaghetti with crab sauce. Desserts were fresh and especially tasty. Great evening!“
“A great find! We had 2 very pleasant visits with good food and drink. We particularly liked the staff and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. The owner and colleagues were very hospitable. One of the pleasantest neighbourhood bars we have ever been in.“
“Fall of the bone wings with great flavor. Only wish they could also be crisper but just my personal preference. Still delicious nonetheless. The fried Ravioli with the marina sauce is also a fave of mine. Place is small so we always order out.“
“what an incredible refurbishment of a classic center city building!!!!!! the bar staff was great in every possible way including both johns and the beautiful young woman who was working with them on thursday night!!!!! the beer and booze selection is above reproach and just one piece of advice... if you like or love tullamore dew, don't drink the honey version“
“Perfect neighborhood gem. Gastropub food is just delicious. Wide variety of food options as well as a terrific beer selection. Through the pub and then a doorway into the "house" next door is a very cozy two floor (maybe three?)experience, a house turned into an eating area, also a surprise pinball machine corner and televisions on both floors. Very unique, very comfortable. You just want to hang there all night as if it were your own house. Love it“
“Burgers, dogs, and beer - not much more you can ask for at Good Dog Bar!One of my favorite aspects about Good Dog Bar is that their restaurant walls have framed pictures of dog pictures that customers have sent in over the years. It's makes for a fun experience and who doesn't love to look at 'a good boy'? Not only is this a cool feature about their restaurant, they also have delicious food!What we ordered:-Drinks: Swipe Right - Tito's, matcha syrup, fresh lemon, Prosecco-Appetizer: Fried Mozzarella-Entree: Good Dog Burger - stuffed with roquefort cheese, topped with caramelized onions, on a challah bun“
“I’m really on the fence with this review. The service and ambience were great. It’s a trendy little neighborhood bar with good music and good people. Three draft beers with common names and off we were to our table. The beer is brewed offsite but it’s Meeting’s beer: love that. However, the food left much to be desired. The bread and butter were good, fries were done right but the clams and Turkey BLT…meh. The clams were so chewy…I mean like, super chewy and I could not cut into it with my teeth. I had one: full stop. Now ordering a Turkey BLT, one should not expect the moon but since there’s about 7 - 8 things on the menu I would hope that each dish is done to near-perfection. It was not. It was essentially basic. Did I eat everything save for the clams? Yes. Would I go back? For sure. The service, people and beer are worth another pass. And I’ll definitely try another dish but I won’t go hungry. Live music would definitely draw me back in!“
“Went for the first time on Sunday. Drinks were delicious. Food choices were plentiful and food was great. Outside courtyard was perfect for a warm spring day. Great place to watch the game. Service was good. We will definitely be back to try more menu items. Plenty of street parking“
“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!“
“Monkey Club is the best locally run bar in Philly. The owners care about fostering a community and getting the best bang for your buck.Most importantly they're four for fourPhilly sports game and Always play the audio during sports games.“
“My first time going here and I was a little hesitant but, I must say choice gone right !!! We ordered a 20 piece wing (hot and honey) and two plain fries, the Friday cheesesteak special and 4 beers our total with a $13 tip was $80 for two people. The wings were big not small. I definitely believe we got our money’s worth especially in this economic state we're in! I will definitely be back they have deals and happy hour almost every day of the week!!! Be mindful that the bartenders are also the servers so be patient and kind. The live music was a vibe the guy sang Taylor Swift.“
“Best little local pub just off Passyunk. We dropped our grandchildren off after having them over the weekend, and stopped here to grab a bite to eat and a cocktail before heading back to New Jersey. I had Poutine and it was amazing! My husband had a brisket sandwich with a Brussels' sprouts. We will definitely be back!“
“*NEW OWNER ALERT*Wolf Burger is managed by an awesome crew. Awesome bartenders who love the neighborhood, great vibes, and they pay special attention to what is happening in the neighborhood. Games are always on. Always a good conversation at the bar. This place is comfortable and welcoming. Come for the burgers, stay for the good times.“
“On my first ever visit to Philidelphia, I chose to try this place (the nachos looked good on the online menu). When I walked in, the place had an intriguing atmosphere. It was self seating - I didn't see the menus on the table, and the server noticed, so, he grabbed me one and brought over a water, before I even requested anything! I ordered the Nachos with the spicy (not hot, just flavored with spices) chicken - it was So good and the bowl was suitable for 2 or more to enjoy. The plating was intriguing! It was Delicious! While I was eating, the server made me feel welcome, joking that I wasn't the Only one who didn't notice the menus (another party that came in missed them, too!). I returned afew days later with my husband, had to show him some of the city and have him try the nachos - we both Inhaled them! Despite a Large party being there, the server came right over with waters, got our order and had it brought out quickly. We were impressed with the service, despite the large party. I Highly reccomend this place! Try the nachos!! The giant pretzels look delicious, too!“

“Went here for the first time and have to say was very impressed with the pool room, and bar. Service was great food was excellent, had karaoke going on in the bar it was very entertaining. Also met the owner very friendly nice guy. Will absolutely be going back..“
“So happy I happened to stumble into this place. The neighborhood bar this area was lacking! Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu haven’t had a bad item yet. Usually get the boneless wings. Kelline is one of the nicest people and bartenders you are ever going to come across.“
“Nothing can go wrong woth the seitan wings at 9pm after a movie at the PFS bourse. The place is always comfy thanks to its decor, has a great selection of beers ans their food never disappoints. The music can be loud sometimes but not to the point of making me go away.“
“Love the food and staff here! We are always welcomed even though we are out of towners! We've tried most items on the menu. Get the burger! It's seriously one of the best! The Philly cheesesteak egg rolls are also a must! Beer is cold! Food is solid! You really can't go wrong! We stop here every time we are in town and make a special trip if it's St Patty's Day!“
“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.“
“Ten Stone is my favorite neighborhood bar for watching the Sixers games. The bartenders and the people at the bar are very friendly and knowledgeable Sixers fans. Despite the Sixers game being on the bartenders keep the drinks flowing. My glass never sat empty for long. When it comes to food, I'm a sucker for anything with truffles, so I love the truffle popcorn. The cheesesteak eggrolls are also a great rendition of that dish. Crispy outside and plenty of meat and cheese inside. The chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun is also good. The chicken needs to be a bit juicier to take it over the top. The gumbo is also a good dish that will keep you warm in the winter and remind you of New Orleans. Unfortunately, the mac & cheese is terrible. As long as you avoid that dish you will have a good time at Ten Stone. If you come during a Sixers game you never know when you might see me at the bar.“
“Pub food at it's best! We went after a Drexel U Preservation Society presentation at The Olde Swedes church. They had a St Patrick's Day menu available that we ordered from. I had the fish & chips & DH had the beef stew & a Guinness. Yum!! Just what we were looking for.“

“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 here for a quick beer and enjoyed this spot. It has the feeling of a dive , so if you aren’t into that, this isn’t the place for you. I had their Green Rock Lager which had an interesting taste of bananas, but for the price was much more interesting than a typical light beer. Would definitely come back for a drink and to try the food.“
“It's a pretty pretty good happy hour with half off drinks. But last time I was there the bartender took so long to give me my check that I left a five and walked out. I hope I left enough. Oh well if I get banned, there are so many other bars that I won't be disappointed.“
“Really great cozy atmosphere and service. The waitress we had was very nice and the food came out reasonably quickly when they were at a high volume.4/5 Kale Salad - really good!3/5 Grilled cheese sandwich - lacked some flavor and cook time2/5 Brussel sprouts - needed more cook time“
“Came here because we saw a friend post about it and we were not let down. We had the best bartender ever hands down. Some of the best wings I have ever had. That says a ton as I never eat bone in wings because I never like them. Drinks came fast all night. They had a game night which was really fun. If you are in the area I suggest stopping in. If you want an amazing bartender be sure to ask for Gianna. Girl is on point!!“
“Definitely a dive bar rather than a gastropub; BUT food was pretty good and the drink worked. Have different theme nights, darts, and hella TVsKid-friendliness: Dinner is not good for kids; maybe brunch or outside eating but yeah dive bar vibe.“
“Had a great meal and service was good as always. Started with the southwestern egg rolls which are always good, wife had the turkey club which was big and very good! I had the jambalaya with chicken which was tasty! A little spice but not over done. We always enjoy ot when we go here. Good quality food for the price!“
“I usually go into bars like this with low expectations because they're unwelcoming to people who aren't regulars. But i was greeted with a warm smile and great service. The lady behind the bar was very kind and helpful and i really appreciate that.“
“1st time there and was pleasantly surprised. It was like walking into an episode of Cheers. Joe and Melissa made everyone feel welcomed. They greeted people by name or if they didn’t know you, they talked to you like a friend. What a great place to eat and have fun.“
“My son and I stopped in to watch at least the first half of the Eagles game because the snowstorm was coming and didn’t want to stay out too late. He had the chicken tenders and I had the garlic Parmesan buffalo wings. The service was great. the food was outstanding, and there were plenty of TVs to catch the game. Unfortunately, the Eagles were not so good. I definitely recommend this place if you like bar food and burgers. That’s the only thing I’ve had so far. Still waiting to meet Jaws“
“Stopped in for a quick bite. Quick seating, great service from the bar staff at the high tops. Loved the French onion soup. Just what I needed to take the off the cold of the night. Solid pours, good music. What you'd expect from the name, honestly. Place starting filling with a younger bar crowd about 9:30.“
“I had a backroom graduation party in May., perfect place for a party for a crowd of est.40 people. Shawn Murphy made sure we got it all set up right, W/ wristbands provided, the bartenders were fabulous. I would definitely recommend this place for private party's. Had a great time, thank yoh, Gary D“
“A Philadelphia & South Street landmark, family owned & run for half a century, this place has so many fun activities or just sit & enjoy a diverse, exciting beer list. Great food & excellent friendly service round out your experience.“
“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.“
“Pretty good selection of beers and there are more than enough TVs to tune in to watch whatever local game you’re trying to catch. I think the service could be a bit better but other than that, it’s a fine little watering hole for locals.“
“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.“
“I love this place. The food is great - I had ricotta ravioli in brown butter sage sauce - delicious. Friday and Saturday nights can be crowded with a great mix of people - but they do have a side room in case the energetic mood is too much.“
“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!“
“Went for the first time last Friday, it was packed! However finding seats were no problem. The the food was GREAT (crab bites?, chips, fries?, fried cod fish??, garlic parm chicken, and a cheeseburger) I really WISH THEY HAD BIGGER CRAB BITES and/or CRAB CAKES!!!! We didn’t have any drinks. However I’m going back but this time with the girls instead of the guys lol and I’ll be having drinks this go round! Great VIBES and PLENTY OF PARKING!“
“My good friend Pennsylvania State Representative Kevin Boyle recommended this place to me, he said it's his favorite bar to go to and blow off some steam while unwinding after work.I just visited this place last night for the first time and it was FANTASTIC!!! The Wit or Witowski sandwich was amazing and being a fan of sour beers, I thoroughly enjoyed a couple of Keep On Keepin' On sours by Lithermans Brewing Company, it paired well with the sandwich.I saw a lot of military servicemen in here having a great time, they said it was even better than a promotion!The staff was terrific and made this such an enjoyable evening that I'l never forget! Thanks so much! I'l be back!“
“It's a great place to either grab lunch or dinner or watch the game with your family and friends. Staff is on point, very polite. Food is just amazing, prices are very reasonable for the amount they serve. Parking lot across the street from it. Outdoor service is available, weather depending. I highly recommend that you stop in and enjoy yourselfParking: Parking lot is directly across the street from the VicWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp“
“Great Irish pub! I've gone there numerous times. I've enjoyed the Mac& cheese, Chili, Fish& chips, Roast Beef sandwiches along with their certified pour Guinness pint. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is happy.Parking: The parking lot is in the rear and has about 25 spots but I've not had trouble parking for lunch.Wheelchair accessibility: There's an ADA ramp from the parking lot but there's only 1 handicap parking spot.“
“Ya'll if I could give them a higher rating I would. First, the bartender was great he knew the food so well and explained what was the best. My partner and I are vegetarian and vegan and he was patient and very knowledgeable about how the food was cooked and tasted. We have tried a lot of veg food in Philly and typically it's pretty good . But, this one was by far the best bar food. Their Reuben was fucking phenomenal. I grew up eating meat and seriously this tasted liked home . They marinate it and smoke it like they would pastrami. The combination of all the ingredients were delicious. We also ordered the veggie burger and it we good and hardy. It was made with kasha root. The outer crisp added a great texture to it.“

“My last last review of Grace was in 2015 and it's time for an update. I've been here a few times in 2023 and this neighborhood bar has really stepped up its game. The service is now outstanding, with friendly bartenders who make you feel welcome and serve great cocktails. The fireside chat is my personal favorite cocktail. You can still get a great bacon cheeseburger here, called the Tavern burger, cooked to temperature with the bacon covered in a generous portion of melted cheese. The chicken tenders are the best in the city, and pair perfectly with a bourbon mayo. I will get them every time I come here. If you live close by, Grace Tavern should be the neighborhood bar you frequent.“
“Kid Rip has a decent beer selection, a great beet salad and sweet potato fries. A good place to come later at night after my work shift, looking for healthier vegetarian food.Recently they had Maine Brewing Co Little Whaleboat on tap, and where there is a Maine beer on tap, you'll see me lol. The service has been better lately. Cheers!“
