Great beer and just as good food! Definitely opt for the bone marrow; it's to die for! *drool* Pass on the scrapple hush puppies tho. They were overly sweet w/ barely any scrapple: reminiscent of cakeUpvoted Mar 1
Layla O'ShowyFebruary 16, 2013The staff here are great people and extremely knowledgeable of their ever changing draft list. Love my corner bar!
Karli ScottJanuary 19, 2016Happy hour is wonderful here. It runs from 5-6:30. Get a seat before 4:50 before the rush comes through! And order the brussels sprouts for $4.
vegansaurusJanuary 2, 2014Another one of Philly's omni restaurants that offer really great, innovative vegan dishes. Not a ton of vegan options, but always something interesting and tasty. This is a cool beer spot.- Nick GreifJune 28, 2012A great out of the way bar / lunch spot with a well provisioned draft list. The black bean burger is superb. Though close to the UPenn campus, it's mostly a hipster spot. ($10-20pp)
Found great domestic Belgian-styles...Goose Island Nero is fantastic. They have the cases ordered by taste...
Patti ByrdApril 17, 2014Awesone craft beer offerings for all! Plus a great vegan and veg friendly menu so all can enjoy a great meal together on equal terms!!
MeeshyAugust 20, 2015Great local beers! Can't beat $3 beers for happy hour. I loved their Namaste beer and the fried Brussels sprouts were awesome!
Occasionally, you will hear Westerberg's awesome take on Burl Ives' "Mr. Rabbit," and when you do, it will then be the only bar you will have ever heard that song.
Margaret TopelAugust 6, 2014Love it! Delicious beer, amazing food, good happy hour. Great for dates. Sit down for a meal or sit near the bar for drinks.
Graham DawsonOctober 31, 2016Great beer, yummy food. Lots of vegan & vegetarian choices, as well as things for the omnivores. Good bartender!
They do Matzoh Ball Soup right! Great consistency, nice salty broth.
Larisa GrollemondMay 23, 2016Slightly elevated bar food and of course a thorough and ever-changing selection of craft beers.
Nina StoddardAugust 12, 2015The burgers are fantastic, get it cooked as rare as possible for the full effect!
Kate McCartyApril 6, 2013The lamb burger was one of the best burgers I've ever had. Plus the kitchen stays opens til midnight. Double win.
Karolina BriggsDecember 22, 2011Highly recommend coconut carrot soup. Good size portions, really good selection of beer and the server was helpful and patient. It's really dark in here though.
Mushroom scrapple, Perennial beer from STL, excellent service, steak & eggs, tofu scramble, brussel sprouts!
DylanDecember 18, 2010Disco Fries! They almost taste like poutine and make me want to dance! Avoid the mini stuffed shrooms and the eggplant sandwich- both lackluster. Don't forget $3 local happy hour 5-7p!
Daniel WolfAugust 7, 2014Nice cozy bar for any sized group. Good beer selection, friendly staff. Great food.
Hannah GMJune 2, 2016Solid beer selection and excellent service. Try the specialties from Yard's or, for a more exotic treat, the lilikoi brew.- They have a great craft beer selection. The seitan nuggets are also great too!
- Gregory CordinaMay 12, 2014Brunch - the mushroom scrapple and avocado toast are a combo made to love.
Kittie SkyMay 14, 2011Delicious brunch, delicious interesting bar food, and good for all your friends, whether they want bbq with a side of bacon or vegan mac'n'cheese.
Sandra RubinchikNovember 17, 2014This place won't even serve you a Croque Madame if you're under 21. Which is a damn shame because the Croque Madame is really effing good.
Megan RascalDecember 29, 2012The fried Brussels sprouts are off the chain. Charming servers as well!
Anand DhanasekharanMay 14, 2016Pretty good drinks and they can make a drink even if it is not in the menu.
Burger JunkiesAugust 20, 2011If you want to get fancy, add a fried egg from the burger "fixin' bar". Pick any local beer on tap to pair with your burger. Read more
Lindsay DugganFebruary 7, 2012Always has a good draft selection. Come back in the morning for yummy brunch!
Victor GalliJune 7, 2012They have an amazing selection of vegan items that change with the seasonal menu.
- Karolina BriggsDecember 22, 2011Vegetarian and vegan options are clearly marked on the menu; that's very thoughtful!
Dennis BJune 2, 2010Awesome pulled pork and a great selection of local brews. Easily my favorite bar west of the Schuylkill.
Timur RustamovNovember 29, 2018Be sure to carry an ID if you go there in the evening. Even if you just want to grab a burger and a coffee with beer drinking friends. Imho a strange rule. Great choice of beers in the shop though.
Best beer around university city! Love the chicken wings
They change the menu every few months, adding new incarnations of deliciousness each time.
