    Average spot. Go for beers before or after doing Eastern State Halloween nights to save some money. Tons of seating. Didn't try food. Staff was friendly enough.

    Different Cheesesteak #1242. Spoiler Alert: I enjoyed my visit to Urban Saloon!! Fun place. Fun decor. Fun people. I sat next to a friendly regular. The bartender was great. He seemed genuinely concerned that he couldn't get the Wifi to work on my phone. My cheesesteak came with tots. My beer was very tasty. I liked the meat, cheese, fried onions, and banana peppers on my cheesesteak. I appreciate that they are using a fancy roll. Even though I have been called a sellout to fancy rolls, this roll, in its present state, isn't working with this cheesesteak. Scooping may be the solution. $16 for a cheesesteak and $9 for a draft hurt frugal me. All things considered, I enjoyed my visit!!

    Went the night before Thanksgiving, but I've been going to Urban since I moved to Philly 10 years ago. It has become one of my go-to bar since I've always lived nearby. Gives the feel and look of a saloon with the wooden furniture and panels. Lighting tends to stay somewhat dim and works with the vibe of the bar. Music usually plays later in the night and there are TVs all around with different games to watch. The bartenders are always great! Make amazing drinks, have great personality and definitely put in work - the bartender that was there Thanksgiving eve night looked like she was working the bar herself, but she was getting it done and still had good energy, interacted with people with a smile and made drinks/placed orders in good time. Again, drinks are always made well here and can be strong depending on what you order and if a bartender you know is trying to show extra love lol. The food is always pretty good. Standard bar options with a few specials every now and then. The portion sizes are generous - I ordered the Urban Sandwich that night and took half of it home because I was not expecting it to be as big as it was. If you are looking for a bar with good drinks, energetic yet chill vibe and some hood food options while in the Fairmount area, Urban is the place to go.

    The food and atmosphere was amazing, but have to call out a very special gentleman. My husband just had surgery after breaking his ankle and was having a rough time walking, but wanted to be sure to celebrate my youngest son's birthday. I honestly don't even know how this owner/employee noticed my husband limping, but came right up to us and put together a table and three chairs. He will never know how his act of kindness truly meant to us. We really appreciated him going above and beyond. Thank you for making the difference!

    This saloon is full of personality. It's rather big inside with plenty of seating! The servers are very knowledgeable and patient. The food came out quick and it was Delicious! I love the wood decor, it gave that ole school saloon feel!

    This saloon/eatery/bar was across the street from Eastern State Penitentiary which we were visiting for a work event. Part 2 of the work event was meeting here for light apps and drinks. The pulled pork sliders were amazing that I will come back just for them. The staff was very friendly. I'll be back

    Harvest salad, no added protein

    Came on a Sunday afternoon after a visit to the penitentiary. Downeast Donut Cider was delicious, and the food was great too. Harvest Salad and Smash Burger. Only complaint was how long it took for a server to come take our orders and how long it took after we were finished for our server to come give us our check. Felt a little trapped lol. No extended wait for our food once ordered though. I would come back here!

    Buttermilk Chicken Tenders

    As you can tell, we devoured these tenders. Truly, some of the best tenders of my life and that's not even a lie. Fresh as f*** -- def chicken breast NOT tenders. So good! Our waitress was fantastic. She gave us FOUR delectable sauces. We were blown away. We were expecting heart burns and watered down drinks. Instead we had a great time with great food and great company!

    PHILADELPHIA: in the Fairmount section of the city you will find Urban Saloon, a pub that serves up a varied menu with 12 beer taps and over 60 bottles/cans. Their food menu has everything from hummus to a Philly cheesesteak, to a warm chocolate chip cookie skillet, and so much more! We sat at the dog friendly outdoor seating for a quick drink and enjoyed the ambiance of the area on a nice summer day.

    My friend and I initially went to Jack's Firehouse and left after seeing their limited menu. While at Jack's, we quickly checked out Urban Saloon's menu on our phones and saw a lot more food options, so we walked over next door and sat at one of their outdoor tables. Urban Saloon was weirdly quiet for a Sunday afternoon. As I browsed the menu, I couldn't help noticing the variety of bourbons and whiskeys they have. While I wasn't planning on drinking any whiskey then, I was still very impressed. My friend and I both found something we wanted to eat from Urban Saloon's menu and kicked back a few beers as we waited for our food. Finally, our food came. I was so hungry that I scarfed down my Cubano sandwich, which was delicious. The tator tots that came with my sandwich were fresh and piping hot too. My friend also enjoyed her brisket sandwich. I can't believe I've been sleeping on Urban Saloon all this time.

    Blood Orange Margarita

    Stopped in here after coming out of Eastern State Pen and we were starving so i guess youre first meal after getting out of prison always tastes great! This was my first trip to Philly so I insisted i had to do 2 things before leaving 1)Run up the Rocky steps and 2)Eat a cheesesteak. I checked off the Cheesesteak here and while i dont know how authentic it was it was really good. Very good quality steak, seasoned well with provolone and peppers. The roll was nice and crunchy and the fries were so hot i had to blow on them to eat,they were also very crispy . I also got a Blood Orange Margarita that was very good with its chili lime salt crusted glass Gina got the Chicken Nachos and declared them the best nachos shes ever had! The place was really crowded as it was a football Sunday and pretty loud which was to be expected but a tad upsetting when the loud crowd roar was because the Phillies walked off my beloved Mets! Service was good as well.

    Grilled Cheese with bacon

    Both the grilled cheese and the wings were amazing. Service was great. 10/10 recommend

    Smashburger
    Benjamin T.

    Came for some quick food and left satisfied. Service was great, we just had a slight misunderstanding but it was sorted out quickly. The kitchen pushed out food quickly for all ten of us and I ordered the smashburger which was really good. The smashburger's meat is substantial and all of the ingredients were present and neatly stacked and bundled so well that nothing slid out, each bite had each ingredient in it. I also wasn't expecting the fries to be so crunchy and satisfying too. For a quick bite, it was worth coming here!

They had a really good DJ and it was a fun atmosphere Now the service left something to be desired. While our server was nice, the food was slow to arrive and it took awhile to get our check as well. We ordered the wings which were good as well as individual entrees. I ordered the pancake sandwiches and they were just okay. Overall this spot is good for drinks, photos and vibes.

    Woo child!!

Thank you to the really nice bartender in the orange hat (also a millennial) who grasps the concept of 'it's so loud in here' like it's not a nightclub. anyway the prices of the drinks were great. NO cover charges (that night) the floors were covered in confetti, and it was awesome watching jake paul get his jaw broken on someone's phone! #netflix ps. if you have a video of me acting up in a sombrero--no you don't.

I'd heard the fish and chips were something special here, and they absolutely lived up to the hype. A generous piece of fish, fried beautifully -- not greasy at all -- that flaked perfectly with every bite. My niece doesn't eat fish, and even she took a bite and approved. High praise. But honestly? The star of the evening were the Madras Curry deviled eggs. Outstanding. Truly. And the dip with the perfectly toasted bread was equally impressive -- everything was prepared with real care. The drinks were lovely, and the atmosphere is in a category all its own. There is so much to look at. You could spend hours in there and still not catch everything on the walls. It's the kind of place that earns a second visit just to take it all in. Highly recommend -- whether it's a birthday, a date, or any excuse to get to Philly.

A quick note for first-time visitors: the restaurant has multiple entrances, and I initially arrived at the back door. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful in directing me to the correct entrance. The space has a unique atmosphere. The indoor dining area felt quite dark, but the restaurant appears to have multiple levels, including an upstairs dining area and a bar, which adds to its charm. I started with a cocktail and really enjoyed it. It was fruity, well-balanced, and had just the right amount of alcohol without being overpowering. Based on recommendations, I ordered the burger. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype for me. It could have been cooked better, and overall I wasn't particularly impressed with it. What stood out most was the service. My server was attentive, friendly, and checked in regularly without being intrusive. Overall, The Dandelion offers a pleasant atmosphere, excellent service, and great cocktails. While the burger wasn't a standout for me, I'd be willing to return and try other menu items.
