Food & Wine: This corner restaurant and barroom offers old-school cocktails and an impressive selection of ryes and gins.
Men's Health Mag: You owe yourself a nip from their gin and rye collections—their cocktails are king, especially the Manhattans. Yes, even in Philly.
Follow Foodie: Outstanding whiskey collection, particularly rye.

Towanda Record: Try the Bruno drink - uncle val's gin, elderflower, and lime. Delicious! And only $5 before 6pm.
Angela: Not sure why everyone thinks this is expensive -- $14-16 for a large, amazing pizza is a steal! Spicy Ham pizza is a must. Definitely get the Whipped Ricotta as an app.
Thrillist: Their pizzas are headbangingly-unique and include the delicious cippolini w/ pancetta/ goat cheese/ Brussels sprouts. It works, trust us. Read more.

Lucas Feijó: I would say this is my favorite bar in Philly, they serve well crafted drinks, in a very loungy couch-filled bar. The staff is very kind, and you must try the gin fizz.
Adelyn: Great great great cocktail bar! So delicious and inventive drinks.
Philadelphia Magazine: 1 Tippling Place has been quite the surprise. The cocktail lounge opened over the summer has been getting nothing but positive reviews as the city's most chill cocktail lounge.

Eleni Tavantzis: Stuffed hash brown, baked Alaska, and great cocktails. Forget the name but gin, rosemary, pimms, etc is awesome.
Paola Viscogliosi: We had the tuna tartare , beef tartare, Caesar salad, salmon and filet mignonette and it was all perfect! The temperature, flavor and service beyond reproach!! A+
Philadelphia Magazine: What to get: The dry-aged Gachot & Gachot porterhouse for two (even if you’re just one). The decadent stuffed hashed brown. The creamed spinach. A personal trainer. Read more.
