I don't usually go out in Levittown and was already annoyed when we walked into Sparkys. Well, what a pleasant surprise! The fever dream of a 1990's dive bar come to life. It was all these christmas lights hanging up in the midst of giant inflatables and a live DJ on a Friday night. The ladies at the bar were friendly enough and we took our drinks by the pool table to wait our turn to play. Fair warning, playing pool here is not for beginners and the game is taken way more seriously than I anticipated. Thankfully the crowd was super friendly and we were chatting with most of the people playing pool as we enjoyed our drinks. They even played Elvis Crespo's Sauvemente at one point so we felt very welcomed! The only star I'm taking off is for the indoor smoking. As someone who went out during the smoking era all through the 2000's, I never realized how horrid that was. Even worse how bad it was when you got home and had to bathe and wash your coat and everything you owned. Otherwise, I very much recommend Sparky's for a night out, and hope to see them agan in the future.

Having this place around town gives you the feel that you've gone a little getaway without actually getting away. It really is so nice! The food is actually pretty good here!

Between this and the 21 and over pool, I definitely recommend if you live in the area!

Maybe an existing customer might want a drink... Nope, this girl isn't looking up for nothing, not a glance at people's drinks to see if perhaps they might need a refill, nor even acknowledge some new thirsty customer... WOW After 5-10 minutes of feeling like Casper the ghost, I just got up & left. I drove to Gleasons bar & it was packed, but unlike Hurricane Jacks the bartender girl there was the complete opposite! She saw me at a table in the corner because the bar was completely full & waved me over to the bar & asked me my name & put a beer in my hand in seconds... After that she noticed my beer was low & shouted my name from behind the bar asking if I needed another one. So where the &$@! do you think I'm going to get a drink during ice hockey season every damn week?! Not hurricane Jacks! Must be a missing manager issue ‍

Five Four Bar & Grill has a large U shaped bar, stage for live bands, pool tables, booth seating,…read moretable seating and an area to have a catered event in a private room. They can hold 20-500 people for private events according to their website. The inside is dark and could use a bit of a refresh, but I wouldn't say it's close to the level of dive. It's certainly on the larger side compared to most bars in the area. The staff has always been nice, but service can get slow when the crowd size grows. Just the nature of things. Food wise the menu has a typical mix of pub grub - apps, soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers and several entrees. A friend was eating their jumbo Buffalo Shrimp off the starter menu and raved about them. I stuck to a Cheesesteak which was average but a deal at $9.50 -- the chopped steak was decent, cheese was good just needed a bit more. Hot peppers gave it some kick and the long roll was fresh. Their beer menu has around a dozen beers on tap. They dabble in more mainstream big beer/craft beer like your Goose Island IPA's/Lagunitas IPA, but do have a decent show of locals like Yards, Victory, Troegs and Weyerbacher. Bourbon wise I had a Knob Creek neat which was average price wise. The pour was on the generous side. Each time I've been here the crowds have been friendly and having a good time. The band we listened to was great and the sound was crisp. Five Four is a family friendly grill during the day and a fun place for adults later at night. Thanks guys!

Awful service every time. Jasmine is by far one of the worst bartenders/servers I've ever had. She…read morealways has an attitude when serving my friends and I. A couple weeks ago she had the nerve to comment on my face in front of the entire table. She claimed that I "always give her dirty looks" and "always look so angry when I'm here". I was stunned and so embarrassed. For one, I don't know her personally, we have never had a conversation outside of her taking my order and quite frankly it's none of her business how my face looks anyway. Second of all how embarrassing is it to be called out in front of a bunch of people like that? I couldn't believe the words that came out of her mouth. Before I left I politely told her I didn't appreciate her calling me out like that and she got very defensive. Not an apology from her, she didn't care one bit. She started arguing with me and acting like I was overreacting and like she didn't do anything wrong. She should take a look at herself in the mirror and think twice before she speaks. I'll never step foot into this bar again.

Murphy's is a local bar down on Bristol Emilie Road, Levittown, PA. For a small dive bar it has…read moresome really good things going for it. Along with an interesting clientele who seem to all know each other, it possesses a beautiful classic wood shuffleboard along one wall, similarly well appointed bar runners whose friendly manner and fun loving personalities make them entertainers as much as mixologists, as they dance to the jukebox 'zak. Although the kitchen was slammed when I ordered a cheeseburger off their limited menu and I had a bit of a wait until it reached me, it was well worth the delay. Served by the cook himself taking a walk from the grill to clear his head, it was the best half pounder I've had for quite a while. It was a perfect medium finish as requested. With lettuce, fat tomato slice and thin fresh red onion ringlets, the juicy flavor/texture was a masticating joy. Quality brioche roll, too. Crisp fries showed the small details were not taken for granted. But for the fact that smoking is allowed, Murphy's was five star all the way. Have to add the expense of laundering the smell out of my clothes to the otherwise top drawer experience. Maybe, "Beef & Ale" really means it!

A second bar area was added on. We walked through to another large dining area addition where we sat at one of many large tables. I ordered the ham and cabbage special and a side of fried pickles, and went back to the original bar for an Irish beverage. Everything was tasty. Thankfully, nobody pinched me for not wearing green.
