Had a great time here tonight!! The bartender, Erin, was super friendly and made our night so much better!! Definitely will return!!

This placed was PACKED on a tuesday night. My coworker and I needed a place to watch the celtics/lakers game and stumbled upon this place. The burger was amazing. Best part about the burger had to be the bun, it was warm and toasty but yet still soft, i don't know how that possible but they did it. Also, apparently we came during beer week so we tried the flight of beers, which was good but not worth the price. read more

Had dinner here with a friend. I am weirdly in love with the mason jars they serve their alcoholic beverages in...a nice touch. I got the Veggie Burger (pretty good for one i'd say!) and my friend got the Mac and Cheese (she raved). Good place to catch up, I wouldn't necessarily go here if I wasn't in the neighborhood. Had a clan of boisterous drunks at the bar which was a tad annoying and a tad entertaining. read more

I visited this place for the Fuel the Cure happy hour. Don't think I would come out here on my own. This place appears to cater towards a bar crowd more. Although they did have some outside seating for dinner accompanied by heating towers, which was a nice touch! They have a pretty decent happy hour deal - plenty of cocktail options for $5. Lots of TVs in the place so we could check out the Thursday night football game that was on. The bartender messed up my friend's credit card (it looked like another patron's and my friend didn't think twice about it). So when the other person figured it out the bar tenders were quick to give the tabs for free! Totally worked out! I would come here to watch the game but maybe not for a night out - the place was looking a little sloppy by the time we left. Also - super loud in this place with everyone packed to either side of the bar. read more

I had their mini chicken sandwiches and my fiance had their burger. I stole his dipping sauce for my sandwich and it was pretty delicious. The atmosphere was cool and the service was as well. Nothing to write home about but I would probably go again. read more

We stopped in here for the Sixers playoff game. Wonderful sports atmosphere. Crowd was into the game and cheering from the tip off onward. Bit of a 'bro'y bar if you can handle that. Plenty of standard beer selections but nothing to write home about. Nice long wrap around bar and many tables. Didn't eat but the food I saw looked ok. 3 stars because of my St. Patty's day experience. They gave us left hand milk stout and tried to pass it off as Guinness. read more

I debated between 2 and 3, but meh describes this place better than a-ok. We went because yelp concierge suggested it to us. The house cocktails are good, but overpriced. We ordered the dry rub wings which were so salty, that my tongue hurt afterwards. (stick to devil's alley for dry rub) The avocado fries were pretty good. something to try once anyway. The pear and brie wrap with turkey was really dry, and kind of blah. French dip was nothing spectacular either. The coleslaw, however, was really good. Mac and cheese was good, but nothing you couldn't make at home. possibly even from the freezer section. I'm disappointed. I hate being disappointed. read more

This is a nice little bar with a good beer selection in both draft and bottle. The place is a long narrow space with a bar that runs almost the entire length. So there are a lot of spaces to sit available. They also have some small tables and a large booth on the back wall for large parties. My only issue with the place is the kind of cheesy/lame nautical theme. I feel like I'm in a place that bought up the old fixtures from a Red Lobster or some other terrible restaurant. The service was a little slow, but only because it seems like they never have enough waitresses on duty if your at the tables. Service at the bar is much quicker. All the staff are knowledgeable about the beer selections and are very friendly. read more

Had a great time when I went here. Went for happy hour and then again for after dinner drinks. Both servers I had were friendly and attentive, most likely because we had a big group and were expecting some good tips The venue was much nicer than I was expecting and pretty spacious. Our group didn't make reservations, but they were super accommodating.. there were a total of 15 of us trickling in so they set aside an area for us. They were good about making sure each person was tended to and I honestly didn't have many complaints. My late night server was much friendlier than the happy hour server, but I was still happy regardless! I'll probably stop by again with friends.. didn't try the food, but not sure that I would considering other reviews. I'm ok with just the drinks. Oh also - i had this Belgian white beer that was just everything. Light, refreshing.. just perfect! It's gotta be a new fave for me. I'm still trying to figure out what beers I like, but this has definitely made the list! read more

We had the best time in this bar. It is clean and comfortable, the food is delicious. Out bartenders were attentive and our drinks were never empty. Best bloody mary's in town. read more

This was the nicest place we visited the Billy one. Super clean bathrooms great service friendly staff highly recommended

A standard lunch spot for us - the beer selection isn't awesome but you can get some randoms; Avery was in there doing a tasting a few months ago and that was cool. I don't stray too far from the mussels or the grilled caeser but when I do, it's for the burger. They will cook it as rare as legally possible...one time I was there (and I'm there a lot that's why this is funny) and I ordered the burger and the owner came out with a raw beef patty and said, "is this right, Meg??" That's the reason I like to come here - most of the time the service is really friendly and attentive. The bar is gorgeous and ESPN is on every station - how could you not dig this place? Oh, and the onion rings are REEEEDICYOUUUUULOUS. read more

This was a place that I was excited to come to once I moved into the area. If my budget could support it, I would become a regular. I love that the beer AND food menu changes frequently. The beer selection is great. As far as food goes, everything is great comfort food. Chicken fingers are not the typical breading and the honey mustard is good. (Although I came here on the weekend and the food was not up to weeknight par.) The avocado fries are deliciously crispy and creamy at the same time. Nice to try once, but aggravatingly small portions. I tried one of the seafood hot dogs once ... not for me but I was able to finish it. I want to try other hot dogs and the burger here. read more

I've only been in here for drinks a few times. Their happy hour is an alright price, but their regular beer prices are just too high. Example: $7 for a Magic Hat. I mentioned to my boyfriend that we could always go here again for happy hour, and he said why pay more at happy hour than any other happy hour -- so I probably wont be back. Overall, they had an alright list of beers, and I like the open and nautical feel of the place. I wish it was priced a bit more competitively for the area. read more

Manager was extremely rude. I was highly disappointed with how I was treated. Felt uncomfortable with how he approached me. The waiter was nice, but the manager made it so I would never go back there. read more

Burgers are very good and so are the mussels. Mac and Cheese is awesome as well! Nice beer selection and you got to love a Basil Lemonade. Although they aren't quite the same without TOM not being there to make them any longer. Great spot to grab drinks and a bite to eat. Pretty good place to catch the game as well but get here early to get a seat! read more

Came here for beer week and had a great time here watching the nba finals and drinking some beers while trying out their eclectic menu. Their menu comes of interesting items like sea bass burger and mahi mahi hotdog?! The price was average and our waitress accomodated our group by changing the tv channel for one of the tv's to nba despite the phillies game being on. They also have some burger specials that are decent. Would go back again. Crowd is similar to your Irish Pub, McGillan's, Morarity's type. read more

This place was great! Friendly staff, amazing food, and even though it was packed we got seated and waited on right away. I got chicken fingers with BBQ sauce and their Mac n cheese, and Sweet Tea Lemonade... Omg I tore the food up!!!!! It was absolutely delicious. I ordered the half order of the Mac and cheese and I needed my mom to help me finish it! The only thing I don't like about this place is that it's LOUD. My mom & I had to lean towards each other to hear one another but then again it was a Saturday night and our seating was near the bar. AND! This place has 8 individual separate bathrooms -- amazing lol !!!!! I would definitely come back here again. read more

Misconduct Tavern - Chicken Tenders with a half order of Mac N Cheese -- Deeeelicious!!! - Bars Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

My friends and I started our night at Misconduct, mostly to have a few alcoholic beverages before heading to dinner. It was a pub with a bit of a restaurant feel to it, but more pub than anything else. They had a very good selection of ales on tap. I started off with a Bell's IPA. It had a lot of hop to it, just how I like it. The next beer I had was the Great Lakes Burning River Pale Ale, which touted being a 2011 contest winner. And, it certainly backed up it's claim as one of the better tasting beers I have had. One of my buddy's offered me a taste of his Left Hand Sawtooth, which drew him in because it was nitro infused. I was not impressed. It tasted rather plan to me. The nice thing about this spot is that before you get roped into a beer you regret, you can taste it and make an informed decision. With all the beers going down, we decided it was time for a few apps. First up was avocado fries. It's really hard to go wrong with this pairing. Who doesn't like avocados? Well, than who doesn't like them dipped in breading and fried? Exactly. Next, we had some wings in dry rub. The buffalo sauce and blue cheese came on the side. And, what started out as six wings, was really 12. Each wing was the wing and drumstick attached. It can be a nice surprise, but for the eater looking to go light a warning would have been nice. But dam, it tasted good. Lastly, we had some fries. They were good fries. Nothing to write home about, but nothing to balk at either. In a nutshell, if you focus is drinking and you want some food to go with, this is a good joint. If the food is more important, well hell, go to a restaurant. read more

This place is a joke. Was here on St. Patty's day with some friends. My two friends went outside to get their other friends and weren't allowed back in for some reason. So I went down to get them and the bouncers asked if I was with them and I said yes. They immediately grab me by my armpits and get aggressive with me and kick me out for no reason. I tried to ask them why I go kicked out and they just kept yelling at me to "Get the fuck away!" How can you just kick someone out who is completely sober and not doing anything wrong? Safe to say that this place will NEVER get my business again. read more

Good burgers, friendly bartenders. Has a great sports bar atmosphere. The bartenders gave us some advice on other places to visit in the city, which was appreciated. The Sixers were playing a playoff game and It got hopping! read more

Let me preface this review saying the bar's entrance is 75 feet from my apartment door so I'm there a lot and probably not totally objective. Misconduct gets high reviews for their food. Mac and Cheese is unreal, great burgers, and decent food specials. The beer list gets 5 stars. Great belgians, IPAs and locals on tap + a crazy good bottle list. Try the dry rub wings, with sauce on the side, chopped. GREAT app. They have Sly Fox beer or Kensinger on special during all Phillies games for $3...great game specials! Service has been much better lately. Kinda hit or miss but improved from a year ago. Plenty of TVs to chill during a Phils game. A bit low-key for a real Eagles fan but they set-up a TV outside which is pretty cool on nice days. I would love to see another special or two...beers are expensive but typical for the neighborhood. Overall, I'm a fan. I was also here when the Phils won the World Series so it'll always be "special". read more

I went for lunch today with a group for a co-worker's last day. We went soon after it opened and it was dead. I had the half sized mac and cheese with spinach, pesto, and bacon. It was delicious, so creamy and rich and the perfect size for lunch. I love that you can create your own mac and cheese dish- if you're undecided, spinach, pesto, and bacon is a phenom choice. Everyone seemed to enjoy what they had and the bill seemed reasonable. Our waitress was friendly and quick to refill our beverages. I'm curious to go back for happy hour or for a game! read more

Misconduct Tavern - Half sized mac and cheese with spinach, bacon, and pesto. YUM. - Bars Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Being here on a Sunday was a little intense, especially since the Eagles were playing. If your coming here to watch your local team (Eagles) get here a bit early. Otherwise it is standing room only. I ordered one appetizer (Avocado fries) and they weren't as good as I expected. The batter wasn't seasoned and the avocados weren't quite ripe. For my cocktail I ordered the Moscow Mule. Now, I didn't expect it to be served in the traditional copper mug but when I got it there was so much ice that it was gone in 4 sips. Not worth $10. Service was better than expected. Our server was very friendly and so was the hostess that greeted us. read more

Came here to watch the USA women's soccer game last night and loved it. Service was quick and consistent throughout the game, even though it was wall-to-wall packed with people. Solid beer selection with lots of seasonal choices, my table also split the potato popper, mini sliders, and chicken fingers-even though I didn't try them they smelled delicious and were gone in 2 minutes flat. Cute waterfront decor and very nice, clean individual bathrooms make this place a nice option to watch sports! read more

Let me first say that if this review were only about the decor of Misconduct Tavern, this would be a five star review! Blue is my favorite color and anything nautical is the way to my heart so I was sold from the moment I walked in the door. We came here for lunch during the week. Very quiet here with only a few people ordering lunch at the bar. I was particularly impressed with how clean this restaurant is and pleasantly surprised with how classy it is in comparison to what I traditionally think of as a "tavern". When you're in Misconduct Tavern, you feel like you're on a ship. They have several unisex bathrooms to really hit the theme home. Everything was lower to the ground as though you really were on a ship. Since they already sold me on the theme, I could've done without bending almost in half to wash and dry my hands (and I'm rather short), but I get what they're going for here. Our waiter was polite and kind. The prices are reasonable. This place would've become my go to spot except the food was not good. I ordered a side caesar salad and half order of Mac n cheese with roasted garlic and bacon. Sounds amazing, right? The "Caesar" dressing they put on my salad tasted like straight mayonnaise. Yuck. It was such a small portion that I didn't want to send it back and I was really banking on the Mac n cheese. Unfortunately the Mac n cheese was also mediocre, even with the toppings. The toppings did make it better than it was though. They used basic elbow macaroni and the macaroni was mushy. I'm Italian so "al dente" is a way of life, not an option. This made my meal not so enjoyable. The rest of the group I was with seemed to enjoy their meals. Misconduct Tavern has nice presentation of their food. Perhaps I ordered the wrong things on the menu? I'll be back to give the food another shot since I loved the decor so much. Maybe I'll have updates then but for now I'm not anxious to return UNLESS it was for happy hour. I'm definitely down to grab some drinks feeling like I'm sailing away! read more

Misconduct Tavern - Obsessed with how nautical it is here! - Bars Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Wonderful adult bar with plenty of tv's. Overall, a great, nice crowd to talk to. Staff is fantastic, knows their stuff.. On the loud side, which I don't mind. They are playing 80's music, which I adore. Stop in if you don't mind the loud and large crowd. Great people, with the trip. read more

Misconduct Tavern - Open face roast beef with potato salad. Order of cheese fries. - Bars Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Love getting their bacon Mac and cheese. Good happy hour beer specials and always gets packed for a good game on tv. For major sports events (like the World Cup), you need to get there well before the game or you won't get a spot. Great atmosphere and this is one of my go to spots in that area of the city. Is it weird that I really like their bathroom setup? Lots of times bars don't have enough stalls...they do! read more

It was nice to have place to go afterhours with menu. I was not a fan of the hot dog menu. Main menu says regular hot dog, but they ask which one you want from the specialty menu. We like the atmosphere and will try it again. read more

I've only been once and it was on a Sunday night, so take this with a grain if salt: the place was empty. That's either good or bad, depending on what you are looking for. The beer selection was solid. Definitely go for the sliders. read more

Nice Sunday Friday afternoon off from work so we decided to stop by Misconduct Tavern. Great location,outdoor seating and full bar. Drinks were a little pricey (average for the area) so no libations. I ordered the pork on a long roll with broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and a long hot (pepper). For the lady a fried chicken sandwich with pork rind breading :) Everything was great,service was pretty fast and the house made ketchup was awesome. I'd visit again to try the sliders read more

See all

Went here twice. Sunday morning for brunch and then more recently on a Sunday night. If your looking for a Bloody Mary late morning, you're better off staying home, opening your fridge, taking the sock you wore the night before and then grab the first 5 things you see and straining them through that sock into a glass. Sunday nights, forget it. Not even going to comment. Nobody gives a crap, not you, not me and especially not the people behind the bar. read more

Oh thank heaven for 2nd chances. My first experience was not so great. Overcooked burger, under seasoned and cold fries and funky tasting draft beer. I must say I have been back numerous times since and ever never been disappointed. The beer selection is decent, they always have the newest Dogfish Head (Black and Blue is my personal choice), and a decent draft list. Their wings are, in my opinion, the best in the city. I order them with straight dry rub, no sauce and they are always piping hot and loaded with flavor. Since my first bad experience I have had nothing but great burgers. Misconduct's burgers and fries blow away the Good Dog burger and their lame-o frites. The bar and waitstaff (Keenan might be the best server in Philadelphia) are some of the coolest in the city. Not a fan of the whole nautical thing they have going on but I can look past that when everything else is pretty close to being spot on! read more

I went here with a few friends for the first time following our last day of midterms. Waitresses are few but they do come around quite often to offer you a refill of your beverages. Which was quite nice, but not much connection with them as a different waitress would come around every time and ask us what the previous waitress had asked us about 3 minutes ago. Beer selection is a little sparse, but not bad, considering there were a few good IPAs on the list. For the meal I chose an IPA called Loose Cannon triple hop IPA, very floral and not too dark, but had that characteristic bitter and hoppy taste that I look for when drinking IPAs. Foodwise, I got a Chicken Mac and Cheese and a Duck hot dog. The chicken mac&cheese was AMAZING, I had read reviews on this item and heard really great things, I must say they were quite correct. Cheesy, Gooey, and the mozzarella on top gave it a nice chew along with the chicken and elbow macaroni. The hotdog was very...interesting, in a good way. I will admit this is my first time trying a hotdog made of something other than beef or pork, I will say that I am impressed, a toasted bun, a nice steamy duckdog with greens underneath of the dog and piled about an inch high on top of the dog with what tasted like housemade ginger-kraut sortof item. It was quite tasty nonetheless. The rest of my party also got Mac and Cheese since thats what we had come to try, although a member of my party also got an order of dry rub wings, which were decent and a fairly good size for a wing, However, was so salty which was a slight turn off for me. It was the last thing I ate though so the bitter and strong taste of the IPA was able to wash it right off. The reason why I didn't give this restaurant 5 stars is the lack of the drinking options for the rest of my party, the cost of the cocktails, and the fact that the dry rub wings were...okay...next time I will have to give the French Onion soup a try as raved about by Lindsay D. below. Definitely will be back with a friend who loves him some good mac and cheese. read more

First of all, they are know for their mac n cheese and its HELLA good. Creamy and flavorful and yummy. The burgers are hearty and delicious. A nice atmosphere, dark and comfortable, the way a tavern should be. The full bar is great if you want to hang out and watch a game on tv too. Its a solid place in center city that I would definitely recommend . read more

Finally was able get here. Was not as impressed as I expected to be. Two of us went for lunch. One had the duck salad - it was ok, but a little plain, plenty of duck, but not much else but greens. I had the braised, pulled turkey with carrots and celery. The portion was appropriate. It was served on a nice looking Brioche toasted bun. It was very tasty - however the problem was it was served at almost at room temperature. It was just slightly warm - but I chose to eat it as is - since it took 35 minutes for us to get our food, and I didn't want to wait any longer. My guess is it sat out and got cold before someone finally realized it needed to be served. I also asked for cole slaw as my side, but they gave me fries. They brought me cole slaw when I reminded them. The fries was decent, above average. Bottom line - I think there are some service and expediting issues that need addressing. read more

Was lucky to get a table for 4 to watch the playoff game. Good place to watch games with many large TVs placed so that everyone can watch from different angles. Started out with prompt service but that declined as the night went on. The place got mobbed and our server had trouble covering her section along with pushing through the crowd. It got very loud as the night went on. Beer and drink selection was nice. We were not super hungry and I split a couple of apps with my wife. Fried pickles and cheesesteak empanadas. Pickles were ok - they were thick cut. Cheesesteak empanadas were missing the cheese and steak.... Cut the 2 empanadas in half and there was literally almost nothing inside. Other couple we were with had wings and said they were good. read more

Come here to watch sports, which this bar has tons of TVs and should be great for. But they have mediocre food and the 90s boy band music they are playing so loud people have to literally yell at each other to be heard kills the atmospher. Wings with dry rub tasted sweet, meat shouldn't be sweet. Especially wings. Beer list is okay, but lacking to others in the area. Will not be back, atmospher is crap, it's too loud and service is slow. read more

Baked Mac n cheese with your choice of fix-ins? awww yeaah. This place is a good place to go if you feel like having something quick with a decent beer. They have a wide selection of brews just like any other bar in the area. The food though, definitely puts them over the top. The nautical theme is cute too. I've only had pleasant servers when eating inside or outside. I haven't been in here when it was insanely busy, so take my rating with a grain of salt. Add some of their delicious fries to that salt while you're at it read more

Worst breakfast I've had in philly. It is a standard sports bar type with TV's everywhere and high tables. To be expected in the area I guess. I got drug here by an arsenal fan and I am having a hard time wondering why arsenal picked this place for their meeting points. Their special for the game was $5 bud lights even though this group packs the bar. I ordered Huevos Rancheros and it came out on flour tortillas with a little bit of salsa and beans sprinkled on them (no huevos rancheros sauce) and the eggs off to the side. My friend ordered a frittata that tasted like the salt shaker had fallen into it. Don't waste your time or money with this place. Head to Fado's across the street if you want to see a game. read more
