When I first walked in I was greeted by no one so didn't know if I had to wait to be seated or the bartender or woman taking the food orders would seat us. Then trying to order a simple drink was a bit of an adventure because the bartender was off her rocker drunk. After deciding to seat myself I was entertained more by the bartender who had started twerking to the music and I was close to leaving until the food came. I had snow crab clusters and corn that was that best I've had in awhile. I think I would go back sometime soon, hopefully the bartender is sober next time! Lol read more

See all

This place is right next to Max's and they have the best seafood. I also come in here to get french fries with my Max's cheesesteaks.... GREAT ! read more

Really good fried shrimp and mussels. Don't fool w crab cake. Mixed drinks can't go wrong.

They have alcoholic slushy drinks that are really good. I usually don't like sweet drinks but they are strong and they give you a lot. You tell them what type of liquor you like and the bartender will customize your drink. I love the mussels. They have a tons of minced garlic and seasoning. They are pretty big. If your trying to watch you salt intake not the best place to go. I like the snow crabs. Macaroni salad is good. Cash only. In the hood. Front cashier has attitude problem but the food is good so I don't care. Usually find parking nearby. People selling shit will try to harass you to buy shit. Sometimes I wanna just get my food and eat in peace. read more

Definitely a small "hood" bar but I love this place! $1 for 3 songs in the jukebox and some awesome seafood! Try the "Fruit Loop" drink when you go! ;-) read more

Came from Delaware to get some seafood with my best homeboy, and wasn't disappointed. The garlic butter sauce on my shrimp-delicious! Fish fried just right and a huge amont of fries with old bay. Mike's crab cakes were lumpy and seasoned good but those slushies were errrrrthang! Friday night young folk crowd was the right amount of noise I expected for a neighborhood bar; friendly with no shade...will be back! read more

My husband has friends in Philadelphia .. every time we come visit The first we do is head to the clock bar. The food is fantastic and you can't beat the price. Can't wait to come visit again and get some spicy crab and some big shrimps. I'm dreaming of this stuff! read more

Before I get to it, GREAT SHRIMP. A 4 out of 5 for the platters!!!!!!The cooks are good. The people depending on the day you go are ok too. I had been to this place a hand full of times prior to this 1 star review I am putting up! At NO TIME did I have to pay for water because I was always a good paying customer. The next day I come to enjoy my time and all of a sudden the bartender that served me the times before says this time around that for a CUP of ice water is a $1.00 and $2.00 if it's bottled. I was totally caught off guard and highly upset. #1 The server takes all day to give you a drink and texts on her phone constantly even when it's not busy in the place!!! You would think even when you use their ATM machine (ATM $1.60 fee), put $10 worth of music in the juke box, give the worker a tip, order 2 platters($22 total) and bring friends to drink that the least they would give you is good customer service and a glass of WATER.... I guess I did not do enough !!! Like this is crazy , I was not in there to just be there..I was a damn good paying customer to sit and have a good time and forget about my problems BUT I guess I can't. ICE WATER SHOULD BE FREE TO PAYING CUSTOMER!!!!!!!!!!! The bartender sucked ass!!! read more

Just got some crabs nd shrimp from them they did not clean the shrimp they was horrible soft as hell nasty asf crabs didn't really taste like nothing it just was all wrong never again my bf said he payed 20something dollars for that nasty shit then I'm tryna call to let them know nd the fone busy I'm so upset read more

The area was rough, and didn't look too safe. But I was still intrigued by the henny slushee that I have heard so many great things about. Also the amazing seafood. However, I could not even get either of the two items I arrived for due to the small establishment with the large amounts of patrons. This business needs better organization regarding customers and to increase their customer service skills. The next time I go I would aim for day time/evening. That area of north Philadelphia, and the sketchy people that the bar attracts, equals a no go for arriving at night time. read more

This is one of my favorite hole in the wall hood bars. It's very small but SIS, the seafood is very yummy. Shrimp are huge and tasty. Drinks will sneak up on you. Cool after the club spot since they stay open until around 3. But get a fried shrimp platter and grab me one too! read more

Great drinks awesome food!! but it's in the hood. There slushy alcohol beverages are there specialty!! Also right next to Max's steaks

I did not want to rate this establishment because I had a terrible experience. The bartender was good and when I ordered food it was terrible. No remorse from anyone instead another lady came upstairs and decided to get confrontational about why I came up to her to let someone know about the bad food. As a person that enjoys Max's cheesesteak and even the Eagles bar I expected better food and service. read more

Best and cheapest seafood that you'll find in the city. The mussels and dungeness crabs are my menu favs,...loaded with lots of butter and chopped garlic. So tasty! I seriously go here EVERY wk. They have really good fried fish as well. Also, the bartenders are awesome! Grab a "Smooth B*tch" or "Crazy B*tch" to go with your seafood and I guarantee you'll only need one drink!... read more

Since moving to ATL , one thing I missed was coming uptown Philly to eat some crabs. Mix it up with the signature frozen drinks..."99 Problems"or " Smooth Bitch " and as they say in Philly.. "Them Jawns Is good"!!!! read more

A hood gem, I usually order a "smooth bitch" and shrimp. drinks can be hit or miss depending on the bartender however still good. This small place can get packed like sardines on a friday night, which I usually avoid coming then anyhow. Overall not bad and worth trying if u never been, also cash only!! read more

Seafood is good and fresh and the drinks are strong! Yea, it's just a neighborhood bar, but it's a good one-during the daylight hours!

Very good seafood and drinks. Gets pretty crowded even on a weekday so be prepared to stand or wait forever for a seat.

I hate bars that have metered drinks. That just proves the owners are cheap. Drinks are too fucking high for a hood bar. $10 for a Coors light and a shot of Jack Daniels? That's robbery. I hate the smell of crabs and shrimp just pervading the air. Ain't be coming back here again unless somebody else is buying. read more

Boy Oh boy' how do I love the clock bar! Out side there bootleg dvd/ cd sellers so u an your lady friend can have y'all nights soundtrack after you get tipsy from the clock bars' famous slushies.. Take her back to the cribo u kno u kno don't play dumb.... The crabs definitely be crackin in that jawn too make sure you get a seat doe cuz it be dumb crowded that's what I hate all in all the clock is a solid place. S/o Kevin hart read more

A wonderful hole in the wall. I write this as I'm trying to convince my friend to make a Sunday afternoon trip from DE to Philly for Clock Bar seafood..m read more

I love the seafood here. The drinks are always strong and tasty. I come here for the huge fried crab cakes and the crab legs which lay in a bed of butter. Gets crowded on weekend nights. It's in the hood btw. read more

This was my JOINT from my Philly days. This brings a tear to my eyes. Where else but in Philly can u drink til 4am, then conversate with the Muslim brothas @ 4.05. Gotta luv it!!! read more

I drive for the white fish platter! The food is seasoned well and very buttery (so I don't eat too often). It's cash only. The only problem is the seating. read more

Very very good seafood I would recommend it to others.... the drinks are delicious I always get the fruitloop drink really tasty

The seafood here tastes great and you sure get your money's worth. The bartender "Mona" is cool, and makes amazing drinks especially her own signature slushies which is again worth the money. The only downside is the area in which it's located and the seating room. If you can't catch a table, be prepared to stand and bump shoulders with people. read more

The fish is so FIRE! I only come here for the fried fish but the drinks are good too. The downside is the lack of seating. It kills me every time! If it was more seating, I would love it more. read more

Came here in the summer on the 4th of July and it was ok. The crowd is like 40 years and over which was pretty annoying since I'm only 22. The bartender was really nice. We had these alcohol water ice/slushies that were ok. They could've been stronger. Maybe my opinion is biased because I'm a student and like more modern bars, but I probably won't be going back to this bar. There was this drunk Oldhead there singing his heart out but he got thrown out because he was making a scene. To me, he was the best the bar had to offer lol. This is a local bar, don't get ur hopes up too high if ur looking for an extravagant experience. It's in the middle of the hood and it isn't that big so it gets packed fast. You don't really need to get dressed up to come here. Please don't waste money on a new outfit. read more

Frozen drinks are delicious. I didn't really get tipsy from it but it was still good. The frozen drinks are $12 but you get a lot in a large cup. Seafood was good. I had a fish platter that was really tasty and I tried a bite of my friends crab cake and it was amazing! It's very tight and cramped inside but if you can get a seat you will enjoy yourself. Great music and vibes! read more

Been going here for years especially in my (club days) this was the best spot to go to grub besides Max's. If you go to Red Lobster or or any other fancy seafood place and the line is out the door. Say no more just head for this spot,definitely worth it! read more

Went to the Clock Bar with my Bff tonight. The bartender I hope I have her name right Anita or it maybe Annette Her skills as a mixologist & customer service are definitely off the hook. Stop tipping these ladies a $1.00 they are worthy of much more. I drive from The lower part of Newark Delaware. And if I can tip well, those that live close by can definitely show this Sistah some love. Her drinks are off the hook! read more

This place is ghetto and unprofessional. I have a service animal. I went in ordered crabs and sat down to order a drink. The bartender (fat black girl) I think her name is Cynthia. She screamed from the other end of the bar and told me I have to move closer to her because her voice is hoarse. I then asked if she can walk to the other end of the bar and she caught an attitude. After 15 minutes she finally made her way to the other side of the bar to take my order and was very rude and disgusting. After about a half hour she walked around to the other side of the bar to where I was sitting and started yelling at me and threatened to physically remove me. This lady was crazy. She was cursing and yelling. This place needs to get shit down for hiring bartenders like that. Very uncomfortable experience. I would proceed with caution when entering this place. I am considering pressing charges. read more

This place rocks! I live in MD but this place is the original "crab boss" it has flavor, lawd those garlicky buttered drenched crablegs and succulent corn aint nothing to mess with! I love this place, dont ger here often but I do miss it. Yeah it's in the hood but that's why it's so darn good! Order you some crablegs, sit down and enjoy yourself with a mice cold strong drank! Better than the others, you can't go wrong! read more

One can never go wrong with the Clock, it's a chill place (for the most part) and has great food. I live for the steamed garlic butter shrimp & mussels. The slushy drinks are usually on point as well. Try it out! read more

I love the food here and the drinks are very strong! I love it here! They have a juke box here where you pay some money to play what you want to hear. It's pretty cool but don't come with a lot of people you won't be able to sit together or at all when its packed which is always read more

This place is so much fun!!!!! The crab legs are beyond this world!!! The frozen drinks just add a great touch to this bar.. music was good! You could buy music on the little touchscreen juke box but we bought least 30 songs and was just jammin!!! The bartenders were so sweet! Its right next to MAX`S . Of course it was the one drunk rude uncle in there but he didnt mean no harm! We stayed for hours! Can't wait to come back n get some more crab legs !! read more

I gave one star because it's really small in there . My friends and I went on a game weekend so it was expected . It was wayyy too congested in the building . Food was pretty good though . read more

This is definitely the most amazing seafood I've ever had. I don't know how I've missed the place until now. The mussels are amazing. I recommend read more
