    Smells like the inside of a cigarette. Only positives are the inexpensive drinks and the dart board.

    Good bar with solid food offerings. We needed a place to…read morenosh and watch some basketball during our visit to Philly. Good Dog checked the boxes. Multiple TV's, a good variety of draft and canned beverages, and good food choices. The soup special for the day was split pea with ham. Talk about a little childhood nostalgia, Hit the spot! The french fries and wings were also good. Great place to take a break while walking around the city.

    The Monday night bartender is an absolute POS. Absolute worst customer service I've ever had in…read morePhilly. I'm born and raised here - this is not about "not knowing Philly" or anything of the sort. This disgrace of a bartender here is a useless, sexist, unprofessional POS and I'll stand on it. Great waitress, Fiona is awesome, never said a sideways word about this loser - but he's that. A loser. Feckless one at that. This is a fun bar - don't let this jackass drag it down. If he were on a trash pickup detail he'd offend the bins, overserve the dumpsters, and sexually harass the parking meters. Fire. Him. Today. And you'll still be months too late. No one gets this comfortable with his uselessness, fecklessness, or offensiveness on the short term - he's been at this a while, driving traffic away for a good long time. If there has been a recent dip in profits... here's your reason. One star was generous. The only reason to come back would be to bring folks who don't tip. This was a good machine with one terrible, awful, feckless shitbird ruining it for everyone. Fire. Him. You'll still be too late.

    Finally got here! Ye Olde Ale House My good buddy Erik…read moreMalmberg has been telling me about these beef sandwiches since the day I first met him. Recently, The Godfather of Meat did a keen review and video, in which everything looked awesome. It took us about 45 minutes from Emmaus, and it was worth the trip. House made roasted beef with the house gravy on a sensational Kaiser roll -- was what we came for and they delivered! Piled high and fresh with provolone cheese. This is the best beef sandwich I have had in decades. Simple quality at its finest! This has quickly become my gold standard classic beef sandwich. The "Matt Fries", were interesting and completely unique: fresh crispy fries topped with generous black pepper, old bay seasoning, Parmesan cheese and Turkey gravy. It worked! We enjoyed them and the large portion was more than enough for 2-3 people. Steph Rush very much enjoyed the mussels in red sauce -- another generous portion, served with was bread. I had an order of the cold shrimp , which is weekends only. Fresh, cooked perfectly and extra horseradish in the cocktail sauce by request. We were overjoyed with what we ordered and I love they have birch beer on tap, my favorite! The joint was packed and busy, our waitress had her hands full in her section. We are looking forward to a return trip ! #rushieeats

    I like the vibe of this place. You can tell it is a neighborhood staple. No frills, been here…read moreforever. A solid roast beef sandwich. Where the stars are lacking for me is on cleanliness amd attention to detail. Mozzarella sticks were cold in the middle. Tables and chairs need to be wiped down better. The table condiment holders were not very clean.
