Updating my 10 year old review…read more The soccer facility I played at moved, so I'm not here as often, and am definitely not closing the bar any longer. I do work in the area and we come for lunch and happy hour regularly. It's a minute from the Target, Lowe's, BJs shopping center and has a nice private lot. It's changed a bit in the last decade. They got rid of the 2 pool tables and now have more seating in the dining room. There is a full bar in this area as well, tho often closed unless it's really busy. What hasn't changed? The food is still tasty. Great smoked meats and amazing lunch specials during the week. They also do a great job hiring good servers here, efficient and personable. I think Marissa is the only server I've known long term, but Audrey waited on us today and was absolutely wonderful. Be sure to mention to her how much you love Audrey Hepburn, might score you a drink! The lunch specials are amazing. So amazing I don't even want to mention them because it already gets busy. The wings on Tuesday are too notch, second only to the burger deal in Thursdays. And if you like ribs head in on Wednesday.

Went for trivia and it was a pleasurable experience. Crowded and noisy but that's what you would…read moreexpect. The food was tasty and as advertised for smoked brisket and the wings were delicious. For the trivia the host was entertaining but we're supposed to win $25 gift card and this is the second time we got stiffed!

I was searching for a good happy hour special and came across Trouble's End Brewing. We headed…read moreupstairs to the second floor and were welcomed and seated quickly with our children. Everything was great from the atmosphere, food, service, and prices. We went for their half off wings. The wings were delicious! Fried perfectly and juicy inside with a great honey Sriracha sauce. A very underrated item is their delicious fries. They have a great selection of house drafts and specials every day for both happy hour and daily specials. I will definitely be returning for more of their specials. I have my eye on their burgers!

The food itself is delightful, the service is excellent and attentive, and the portion sizes are…read moreplentiful. The drink menu is superb and there's a definite vivacity within the brew pub. However the restaurant is tucked away on the second floor of a shopping center, and the seating is not ideal. The acoustics made it difficult to hear the server and my dinner companions, and this was before the live music began (which was setting up in the dining area as we ate). I was pleasantly surprised by the food, and everyone seemed cheerful and welcoming. But the restaurant was too chaotic to have any semblance of a meaningful conversation. I had to shout across the table to be heard. I may come back to enjoy a beverage and listen to a band, but I would never bring a date to this location if I had any expectation of enjoying each other's company. And that's really a shame: the food and location are excellent.

My colleagues and I visited on an Monday night. I believe Matt/Mike? was our server. I think he…read morewas newer as the confidence never flowed even though he was very eager. It didn't help that several of the beer/ and non-alcohol options that were ordered at our table were out of stock. The philly cheesesteak, the burger, and my fries were all-ok. What makes this a 4 star review was the offering of the IPA by Evil Genius - Stacy's Mom Yeah, that's the name and she does have it goin' on!!! This refrain is perfectly suited for this IPA "Stacy's mom has got it goin' on She's all I want And I've waited for so long Stacy, can't you see? You're just not the beer for me I know it might be wrong but I'm in love with Stacy's mom" Stacy's Mom is one of Evil Genius' year-round flagship beers. It's an IPA with low bitterness and lots of hop flavor. Dry-hopped entirely with Citra. One of the best IPAs I have ever had. I had two that night. 3 stars for P.J and 5 stars for Stacy's Mom.

Back again because we are working a convention and this is the closest spot to the hotel when we…read moreare exhausted and just want a drink and something to eat. It's so loud. So, so, so loud. Like, grandpa lost his hearing aids and is watching the game so he just maxes out the volume loud. I hope you like listening to the commercials on espn. The servers appear to be on autopilot, and while pleasant they appeared more exhausted than we were on both of our visits. This time I tried a margarita, which I like to sample whenever it's on the menu. The PJ's Classic Margarita is made with orange juice, agave and lime juice. It's a screwdriver with tequila. The wings are great, this trip we had the pickleback and sweet chili. Meaty and very good. I also tried the French dip which was good. It comes with ruffles potato chips. The quesadilla was as good as I could make at home.

Great customers... lousy managers. Managers want to go home early, so they throw you out before…read moretheir own posted hours. The hours on their website and on the internet aren't the hours they keep. They close whenever they feel like it. The now post different hours on their door, than those on their website. It doesn't matter if you're holding a large sports bet and the game may end in 5 minutes... they tell you tough shit... they're closing in 3 minutes. Food prices went up dramatically since sports betting came in, and the menu is now minuscule... having eliminated many favorites such as omelettes.... club sandwiches..which you now have to walk on the other side of the building to order, French onion soup, and many others. As if this weren't bad enough, this place carries only 1... yes ONE Daily Racing Form. They have programs, that don't give the bettor nearly enough information, and if someone gets there and buys the one they have before you do, everyone else is shit outa luck. You can now bet on names and colors, or buy a "program" that doesn't give this serious handicap the information needed. Where the hell do they expect the horse player to buy a DRF Racing Form???? The answer according to them is ---that they do not always sell a lot, and they're worried about not getting a refund. Omg?? Really?? Worst place on earth to go if you're a bettor. You're much better off at the South Philly Turf Club. They actually have plenty of DRF Racing Forms....and programs, and they stay open for their posted hours on their website and the posted hours on the internet, so you can collect your money. AVOID THIS PLACE. I have to walk out with hundreds and hundreds of dollars of winning tickets, and come back another day to get my money. Sucks.

The first rule of Turf Club is that you do not talk about Turf Club. The Second rule of Turf Club,…read moreis that you do not talk about Turf Club, and if this is your first time at Turf Club you will gamble. It doesn't get any manlier than the TC with all the smoking, cursing, and degenerates. Horse racing gamblers are the lowest form degenerate gambling life. Don't be scared if you're a noob the regulars will be too busy yelling obscenities at TV screens and answering the voices in their head to bother with you. There's a bar and the drinks are fairly priced. I've never eaten in the restaurant portion, but the snack bar segment is good as far as snack bars go. The Turf Club is fun because it's something different in the area.

This place is too notch…read more They are phenomenal. When you are waiting for a beer I mean it seems like priority I've never seen service like this at anywhere that serves beer. Just remarkable speed and care. I had like five people ask me if I was good while I was waiting for a beer just the exact speed you want from a bar. This place is just remarkable. Also tried the food also great. The owners really care and it shows. Also comedy shows here were amazing !!!

Root Down Brewing is downtown Phoenixville and not too far from the famous Colonial theatre where…read morethe 1958 classic movie, 'The Blob' was filmed. It's a cool place that I wished I had more time to visit. What drew my interest the number of vegan options that they had on their menu. Vegan Nachos and Vegan Pizzas. There are also some handhelds as well. I was with a group of 35 at another restaurant that did not have vegan options so I called ahead, placed my order and picked it up around 6:30 pm. At that time, there was a good sized crowd inside and everyone seemed to be having a great time. I paid for my vegan pizza, and then without drawing too much attention to myself, walked into the restaurant and went to the second floor that was reserved for us. My pizza was excellent. The Vegan Blanco Vegan Mozzarella, Tofu Ricotta, Sauteed Spinach, EVOO, Garlic I haven't had pizza in about 3 months so i was definitely looking forward to it. I really enjoyed how they did the Tofu Ricotta the Vegan Mozzarella. My only critique is this - When working with vegan cheese - especially shredded, let it sit at room temperature before popping it in the oven. By doing this, you avoid the 'matchstick' look on the pizza. What happens is that the vegan cheese going from cold to hot is too extreme so it doesn't melt, or spread out - it essentially cooks / burns in place. Having worked with vegan cheese companies over the years, there is a misconception that it is bad to leave the vegan cheese outside on the countertop - not really, it's not cheese. I devoured my pizza and appreciated having a vegan option besides fries and a veggie medley.
