Only thing good is the atmosphere. Food, service, and wine list stink. I'd rather eat fast food than waste my money again here.

Pizzeria Beddia

Average entree under $10 Takeout menu
115 E. Girard Ave.

Dolphin Tavern

Average entree under $10 Liquor license
1539 S. Broad St.
215-278-7950

Cedar Point Bar and Kitchen

Average entree $10 - $20 Liquor license
2370 E. Norris St.
215-423-5400

This brand-new Fishtown spot is the follow-up to NoLibs’ A Full Plate Café, which shuttered late last year. The menu has an unmistakable Southern-comfort motif and seeks to welcome all comers — there’s chicken and waffles and a healthy dose of pork, sure, but there’s also a strong ... more »

Husband-and-wife team Leigh Maida and Brendan Hartranft (Memphis Taproom, Resurrection Ale House, Local 44) have finally ventured into Center City, but they’ve managed to bring along some of the neighborhood feel that’s made their other bars so successful. Of course, an expert tap ... more »

267-639-5606

Pennsylvania 6  |  The ownership team behind City Tap House and the Field House has gone in a decidedly different direction for their new Midtown Village spot. The old Tweed space has been given a seriously luxe makeover with an old-Hollywood feel, courtes ... more »
