36 Best Beer Bars near Upper Darby

“I was trying to go to another spot to grab a bite but their kitchen was closed. That’s when I stumbled upon Station Tap. Small, quaint but a gem.I ordered two of my favorite items: nachos and garlic parm wings. With nachos it is all about the cheese and their homemade queso was creamy and tasty. The wings were loaded with Parmesan cheese and garlic. Portions were good that I had leftovers. Had the lemonade and it was good as well. I know, lemonade is lemonade but it was different from the norm and good enough for me to highlight.Service was great as well. My server gave me recommendations and food reviews for my selections. She checked to make sure I was enjoying it and the team worked as a unit to make sure my requests were tended to due to blind spots.Grateful I found this gem…I’ll be back“

“Amazing little bar with a great beer selection and excellent bar food. The wings were among the best I’ve ever had (and I’m from Alberta - we take wings seriously!) knowledgeable server and very friendly. They put a lot of care into the food and drink of this bar and it shows.“

“Who knew there was a place like this in Ridley park?!? The food was exquisite and rivaled any of the top Philly and nyc restaurants. We had the charred broccoli, beet starter, scallops, salmon, chocolate mousse and pistachio cake. Each dish was perfect! The portions are just right so you don’t leave over stuffed (and you really do need room for dessert!). Great bar cocktails and mocktails. Pricing was just right considering the high level of the cuisine. Delicious and beautiful presentation. Our server Joey was just the right mix of attentive and friendly without being annoying. Love this place!!! Great for date night, special occasions, or just dinner with friends. I’ll be back!“

“Superb service and phenomenal food! Fun atmosphere for a quick bite, after work wind down, date night, or time with friends. Excited for the live music and other events.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan options that will satisfy all cravings.Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegan options! Chef is crazy cool and accommodating.“

What sets this place apart is bartender Max, whose impeccable service and expertly crafted cocktails elevate the experience to new heights. From classic drinks to inventive creations, Max delivers with finesse and flair. Add in a diverse menu of delicious bites, and you’ve got the perfect spot to cheer on your favorite team. Don’t miss out on PBR Bar – it’s a winning choice every time.“

“This place has the best vegan food that doesn't taste like traditional “vegan food”. It also has non-vegan options, so it is great for bringing non-vegan friends/family. They also have a wide variety of alcohol in case you enjoy that stuff. They also have a huge selection of pizzas, even including vegan ones! You can even sub vegan cheese on any one of the regular pizzas. I had a sandwich that was made of pizza crust, and ive never had anything like it before! 10/10 will be returning.“

“Great choice if you want something tasty real quick but don't want a fastfood. These guys cook like top chefs ?Also, they have coffee. I mean Real Coffee, freshly grounded and prepared just for you with their 15 bar espresso machine. So if you're from Europe, get your coffee here. Italy-grade stuff.“

“Throughout the meal, Chanel checked in on us regularly to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. She was quick to address any requests , making sure we had a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience. What truly stood out was the genuine warmth and hospitality displayed by Chanel. Chanel went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and valued as guests. She exceeded my expectations!!“

“Everything was amazing! We came to watch the game and brought the kids with us, we ordered a bunch of appetizers and everything was so good! Our server so sweet & attentive and she was also running the bar. This place is 10/10 highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Wasn't sure where/what I was going to eat, but I was thirsty so I stopped in for a beer. An excellent beer was on tap so I decided to get a sandwich and God damn if it's not the best roast beef I've ever had. Why God didn't give us two stomachs I'll never understand.“

“I've read plenty of great reviews and I have friends who tell me about the wings.. I have to say that the wings are the best that are out there ! They are twice the size of any other wings that I've eaten.. even if you bought them at the market and made them yourself. Even the blue cheese was thick and tasty.The chicken cheesesteak was good..a little salty but good . In all fairness I'm a beef guy .“

“Our first experience here, popping in on a rainy Saturday evening. Despite the warm, welcoming interior, the first thing we noticed was how loud the restaurant was. Full capacity with a crowded bar does not need loud music playing! It was exceedingly difficult having a conversation with my partner, we actually gave up and people watched.Food was great! We enjoyed our bacon wrapped figs and goat cheese appetizers. The Tips & Shrimp and short rib pasta entrees were great as were the house-made beignets.The awesome hostess was as doing quadruple duty as Villanova students are one Spring break. She didn’t miss a beat taking our drink and food orders, filling our water and making sure we were enjoying our meal.“

“So I recently discovered this place looking for lunch for work. The first time I ordered from here I got a cheesesteak, cheese waffle fries and a slice of bbq pizza. Now, the fries were good, they give a great portion for a small. The cheesesteak would’ve been great also but someone was a little heavy handed with the salt shaker and they kind of blew the taste for me. Don’t get me wrong, it was good but the overpowering of the salt kind of ruined it but i still ate it. Last is the slice of pizza. That was delicious, i just wish they would keep it in a bit longer so the crust can get a little crispier. It was the first thing i ate and had to peel the crust off to eat with every bite i took. Overall, it's a cool laid back place. I would still recommend it to those who are looking for a pizza place downtown. They also have some desserts in the fridge that look absolutely appetizing. Oh, the macadamia nut cookies are out of this worlddddd!“

“This is a really friendly neighborhood spot. With the renovations, they have a great selection of craft beer and cider (including some French bottles), plus wine and snacks. We were especially excited to see Korean chips alongside the American brands. Next time, we'll try a sandwich and sit for a drink in the rear garden.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch while visiting the area. Nothing fancy, just a simple deli in appearance. The meals we had were delicious. Chicken cheesesteak hoagie, chicken rice soup & corned beef special. Great friendly service. Give this place a try.“

“Went on a Friday night for live music. Was a little confused about the set up at first if we wait for a server, order every thing at the bar, or get one can or bottle at a time and then pay for it at the bar. 3rd party BBQ kitchen was good for BBQ sandwiches. You can try a beer and if you don't like it, try another.“

“Forever changing neighborhood this is a fairly decent dive bar. Shout out to Starmaid Shantay (sp)(Monday and Wednesday). The place is clean and people play great music from the 'jukebox'. This is an old school pace with two pool tables and a short food menu. I believe the same people own Rose Bar off of Island Ave. They have the standard Asian version of soul food, basically good fried wings with various fried rice on rotation. The Singapore Soup was just okay no tofu or chicken Would I go back? Yep during Happy Hour 5-7 Monday-Friday.“

“Nick was my server and he was so attentive to me and my dietary restrictions. I had just finished my chemo and cancer journey and he surprised me with a wonderfully decadent dessert. My whole family loved him. He definitely needs a raise because he made our first time experience being here amazing!! We will definitely be back again!!“

“My favorite coffee shop in the area. The unique flavors are really fun, and they've all been good so far. The brown sugar cold brew with ube sweet foam was amazing. I'm always in and out really fast with to go orders... I find myself waiting longer for Dunkins, and it's not half as good as this is. But it's also a nice place to hang out in and read.“

“A treasure in the Newbold/Point Breeze neighborhood of Philadelphia! Beers are so top notch with classic standards and new interpretations that just hit perfect. The food menu is super simple and to the point. Every item on the menu is guaranteed to be delicious! Highly recommended for beer lovers new and old!“

“I was in West Philly for Porch Fest and stumbled on this place. It is a great concept with breakfast or Mexican food plus a WIDE variety of beers. The staff is very helpful. If I lived closer, I would definitely come for some late night grub!“

“Awesome atmosphere, great staff & the food is some of the best tasting I've ever had, if you have the means, I highly recommend going there, & pick up some food or sit down & enjoy a delicious meal. (Josh is the [on site chef] man!“

“I have been coming here for over 2 years! During the late Spring through early Autumn there are open mic nights with talented musicians. Weekends are often busy and popular social eatery.Outside patio has a view of the Schuylkill River and lots of opportunities to listen and watch birds.The head chef and managers pride themselves on fresh, high quality ingredients, food preparation, kind and patient service. Their servers are always friendly and sweet. Highly recommend! Outside seating is dog friendly!Vegetarian options: Cucumber salad!! Several types of sandwiches and sides.Dietary restrictions: They have options for gluten free, non dairy, egg free, tree nut free, and vegan.Kid-friendliness: Extremely. Lots of seating, outdoor space to walk around and even play, and good for strollers. Some tables are small café style and some are larger for families.Wheelchair accessibility: This café has mostly flat seating area, the staff will help open door but the entrance may be a tad narrow to order if it’s busy.“

“Great venue for gaming !! Lots of space and various tables to fit all types of games. Staff is very nice and attentive. Good beer selection and excellent food choices (breakfast stuff, burgers, etc). It is now our go-to place for our monthly sports simulation games meetings.“

“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“

“Great bar to watch European Football. Atmosphere is top notch, and depending on the match it gets to be standing room only. Food was decent and the wings were really good. Fries are delicious as well. Good selection of beers on tap. Service is fast and there are plenty of TVs. Parking outside along the street. Definitely will be back.“

“Everything is delicious, especially the wings. My only problem is perhaps a menu discrepancy. A hamburger costs 6.95 and a cheeseburger is 7.45, that's a .50 difference. Ok, no problem. Then why is a hamburger platter (fries, coleslaw & pickle) 10.75 and a cheeseburger platter 11.50? Why did adding cheese go from .50 to .75 on a platter?“

“WHAT? How have I not reviewed you?? You are a bastion of late 70s/80s wood veneer paneling, a haven of free sports watching and cheap Jello shots (mmmm, gasoline flavor), and a Mecca of fries that may or may not be, probably definitely not Halal. Come to Locust Rendezvous at the beginning, middle, end, or any combination of your night, and enjoy all that the cheap eats, Philly crowd, and sports can offer. Also, surprisingly functional bathrooms for a space that looks the way it does.“

“Great music & atmosphere, not exactly a "hood bar" but hood bar adjacent. No 5-stars because they stop serving food too early. We showed up around 11 pm on a Saturday after a gala & wanted wings. The open kitchen was cleaned & vacant. Soooo disappointed! The place was busy, standing room only. Make more money- sell the foods!“

“First time here and was very pleased. Nice atmosphere, good food and solid service. Server checked in on us often. No long wait for drinks and food came quickly after order (much shorter than expected!) Will definately come here again.When you go try the NE clam chowder and the mussles!“

“*Winnies Market Review*. I do not post google reviews and believe this is my first one but felt compelled to write a post after seeing the last review by a “Justin” trashing the service of the newly opened Winnie’s Market coffee shop. I just happened to be in the shop at the same time this so called bad service occurred and it’s my opinion that the reviewer had the “attitude” - NOT THE ESTABLISHMENT.As a Manayunk resident, I could not be more pleased and delighted to have a new place to purchase coffee up to 6pm. I can get a coffee way faster in here than any other coffee shop on Main St. Their food to-go is top notch and their Cappuccinos are excellent. All of my other local Manyunkers agree.Please support this local Manayunk business and drop in anytime-they will be glad to serve you.“

“I’ve came here a few different times when I lived in the area and I came back on October 19 for my birthday. I had a lot of fun and the food is really good my spouse especially loves the honey lemon pepper wings.Vegetarian options: There are vegetable options such as potatoes, corn & broccoli.Dietary restrictions: If you have dietary restrictions, the staff should be able to accommodate them with the things that are on the menu. Like if you can’t have your vegetables with butter and seasoning’s because of high blood pressure, then you can order your broccoli to be steamed and they’ll make that for you.Kid-friendliness: I’ve brung my kids for dinner here.“

“We love board games and some of us are vegan. We had great food wonderful coffee and tea and a couple hours of board games. It doesn't get much better than this! The falafel were out of this world!
