- Fodor's TravelAugust 29, 2018The first-floor bar is noisy and spirited—show up before happy hour to snag a seat—but the mood gets a bit quieter as you climb the steps to the dining room. Read more
Stash BochnakAugust 5, 2012Try the wings. They are delicious! Not quite buffalo wings. They have a distinct flavor with just the right amount of kick!- Rob McGowanJune 8, 2018Check it out for Happy Hour. $5 for fantastic mac-n-cheese in an onion soup crock.
Valerie WilcoxMarch 23, 2010My little neighborhood haunt for a beer and burger - watch out for the garlic fries!! They are great but if you eat them, so does whoever you are with cuz you will get some serious garlic breath.- OsirisOctober 27, 2010Best burger, beer, & fries in Philly. Ask for Rachel, Dave, or Pete. If you enjoy Whisky, James has 'Paddy's' which is imported directly from Ireland. Good Times!!!
Steve PrioleJuly 9, 2013Get the Bangers and Mash... Its AMAZING! I get it every time I come into Philly!!
💜💜Purpliscious💜 Bee💜💜July 12, 2012Eileen gets flustered under pressure. They grat checks during center city sips. Never use your debit card. Cash only. The food is good.
Philly.comAugust 3, 2014This handsome pub serves surprisingly good Irish-fusion food, but you'll have to wait for it. Read more
Britt RileyNovember 18, 2010Rachel, Adam, Kate, Eileen... Everyone that works here - what else could you ask for? These people are a family that you want to be a part of. :)

sockiiFebruary 25, 2010Great for Sunday brunch...some of my favorite Bloody Marys in the city and the Irish Breakfast does wonders for a hangover.
"Spicy Parmesan fries" are not fries but chips that have been seasoned. Delicious but not quite as advertised.
Mats BeemAugust 5, 2011@Mike Beem: have seen the Free Mason 'Temple' and the Mosaic neighbourhoud yet? Must see!
JP VSeptember 21, 2012Whispered to my date... 'I think this is a poser bar.' She laughed and hit her head on the wall. So what is with the lame-o music?
Friendly staff, great jukebox, and krunk juice experts!
Carter WintschJune 5, 2014Pretty packed for the first night of SIPS but the service was good. Wings were decent, but the side dressing was pretty gross.
Cool music on the j-box if you know what you are looking for.
