Visited again. Great lively bar. Good food and took part in the quiz. Had a fun night.
The award for the the angriest man in America goes to the owner of this bar. He was cursing at us and asking if we were stupid for setting up chairs and sitting outside, when there were about 20 other people eating/drinking outside. At that moment we were in fact stupid, for patronizing this establishment. It was jam packed inside, albeit with people who looked below the legal drinking age. There was no place to stand at all so we were forced to go outside, where we were met with berating from the owner. I would recommend going someplace else where you won't face verbal abuse by the bar owner.
Came here last night with two friends (we're all Asian and have all been here before), waited for the bouncer before entering, and the bouncer said we gave him attitude. He asked us to show him a different form of identification like a credit card after showing him our real legal American drivers licenses. 😐 Other customers were let in before and after us without being asked for more identification. Guiness is good so this is unfortunate, will not be coming here again.
Got charged 12 bucks for ice
I was at this bar this past weekend celebrating a friend’s birthday. We’re gathered around the bar when another patron bumped into me. I didn’t think anything of it as the bar was very crowded. Shortly there after, the manager approached me with a hostile demeanor and said I had been bumping into people. Instead of having a dialogue, he raised his voice and asked me to leave. Very unprofessional of management and the staff. Me and my friends left so in turn, they lost our business. Will not being going there ever again
Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience at this establishment. Our group of six arrived and there was not enough seating available inside, so we sat outside. Shortly afterward, one of the staff members approached us and asked us to leave. When we politely asked why we were being asked to leave while an entire group of other patrons was also seated outside eating, the situation quickly escalated. The employee became extremely rude, yelled at us, and used profanity toward our group. Regardless of the circumstances, customers should be treated with basic courtesy and respect. The way this situation was handled was completely unacceptable and left a very negative impression. Based on this experience, I would not return to this establishment and would not recommend it to others. Hopefully, management takes this feedback seriously and addresses how customers are treated in the future.
Chicken tenders are very good and a large portion for happy hour. Guinness delicious as always. Workers are pleasant. It gets crowded with yuppies. The bartender played 3 old Drake songs in a row, which I actually appreciated and enjoyed.
Great pub, food was amazing and staff were great. A friend recommended that we pop into Black Taxi while in Philly for a hidden gem cheesesteak without the huge lines and the Black Taxi didnt disappoint. We want to stop in again next time we are in the area to try their more traditional faire.
Very nice bar /grill The food was very good with excellent service . The have an extensive bar
Nice place, walking distance to the art museum but up a quieter street. Bustling and friendly. Good food, decent prices. Pretty good beer selection.
