Sitting in my drafts for way to long is Curran's. We are no strangers to both the Bensalem location as well as the one down on State Road, we haven't gotten to try the new Rockledge location yet, but I am sure it is just as good. If you're going to Curran's... You're having wings! It is a must. Top of my list of best wings around. Always plump. Always juicy. Always packed with flavor. The rest of the menu is bar food. Nothing that stands out, nothing we have ever had to send back. The Bensalem location is noisy, especially on game days/nights and the fans are HERE to CHEER, so if that's not your vibe - Curran's is not the place for you during those times. The staff is always helpful and attentive, and the place is always clean and comfortable. Plenty of bar seating and more than enough tables to accommodate all the diehard and Fairweather Philly sports fans. Currans remains on our go to list for a drink, a meetup with friends, a quick bite, but most importantly when that wing craving needs to be satisfied. read more

We ordered an early lunch from Currans. Although I wasn't the one placing the order, I was told the lady who answered the phone wasn't the nicest. In any event, I went in to pick the food up. The place seems cool, I like the vibe. I'd like to go hangout there. We ordered a bunch of sandwiches platters and everything was good. No complaints. Nice size portions and fair prices. read more

I was always a big fan of Curran's "aka" Pudgy's wings when I was working in NE Philly a couple decades ago. I had never been to the location in Bensalem before, so a Friday evening wing craving led me in for a visit to see if they were anything close to what I remembered. They have a decent sized parking lot behind the building and entrance doors are found in front or at the back. The inside is your typical sports bar. Lots of TV's plastered on every wall, a long bar, high tops tables, family style tables in the back and regular seating near the back of the building. They have a small patio out back and the front windows open up on a nice spring/summer day. The men's room was bright, clean and well kept. I liked the Vincent Vega/Pulp Fiction and Harry Dunne/Dumb and Dumber toilet themed portraits they had hanging on the walls The food menu is simple and has typical pub grub with some entrees. There are two items on the kids menu (chicken tenders or grilled cheese). The beer menu is simple and limited to macro brews plus a couple big beer micro brews. The service was pretty slow, but the servers were nice. The lady server on my second visit was very personable and thorough, but overwhelmed .... younger guy server on my first trip was helpful with the menu, but more of a get you in and out type. Adding another server would be a big help since they seem to have a lot of to go orders that were completely handled by the two servers working the floor. Just my humble opinion. I ordered the spicy crab soup and hot wings on my first visit. The spicy crab soup wasn't bad at all. It had a good quantity of shredded crab, veggies, a spicy bite and a balanced flavorful broth. The hot wings (on the menu as best in Bucks) were fresh, averaged sized and had a typical hot sauce on it. I was hoping for larger portion sizes, but I've certainly seem way worse. They were OK. On both visits my son had the grilled cheese with fries and gave it a thumbs up. On my second visit I had the Baby Back Ribs that came with two sides for $20. Normally I wouldn't order entrees from a bar, but I noticed the description had "Smothered in our famous award winning bbq sauce" so I had to see what that was all about. Unfortunately the ribs were a miss. The meat itself was overcooked on the ends, they badly needed a rub to penetrate the meat because it lacked flavor and the sauce although decent (I detected Dr. Pepper in the ingredient list) didn't do enough to bring the meat together. The green beans were seasoned and pretty good. The mashed potatoes were also good just a bit over salted. I wouldn't go out of my way to hit up Curran's, but it certainly had an OK neighborhood bar type of scene. Friends, families, folks celebrating a birthday, people out watching the Phillies game and locals at the bar engaged in locker-room talk with the bartender. There was also a band or DJ setting up while we were leaving. Nothing bad, but nothing extraordinary. Thanks guys! read more

My son and I stopped in for lunch on a little road trip we were on. Overall the service was good I believe Tracy was behind the bar she was very pleasant. The bar was clean as far as I could tell we were also one of their first customers of the day. My son's draft beer tasted off I don't think the line was cleared maybe the beer was sitting in it all night but it definitely was a little funky. We both ordered wings and got the sprouts. Wings came out first sprouts came out second which didn't matter to us some may have wanted it the other way around. The sprouts were awesome !! The wings were just ok. Average bar wings nothing about them stood out. I was told they were excellent and we had to come here to get them and I was disappointed. They definitely weren't bad they were just ok and a little over cooked. A few were pretty dry. Overall I'd stop back if I were in the area but I wouldn't make it a destination for wings. read more

My friend and I stopped in on Tuesday night, before he moved. We barely got served. The bartender was too busy talking to her friends than serving us. The bar was barely full. She had no excuse. The bar itself was tacky, it looks like it was never wiped down after the last person. read more

It's Tuesday and they have a wing special! Yay! That's the good part! Wings were great. The sad part is that it was not busy. We sat at a table near the bar area and were ignored for 7 minutes. Moved to empty seats at the bar, ignored for another 2 minutes while the bartender checked her phone messages. Finally flagged her down for a couple bottled beers and then had to grab a menu off of a table and ask her if I could place an order. Ugh! She took our money off of the bar for every drink and then ended up putting them on our bill. Had to point that out to her because I wasn't paying twice, seemed like she knew her error. In a nutshell-wings were good-service not so much. read more

Stopped by for lunch. A bit busier than k expected but the service was pretty lacking. Had to outright ask if I could foot in 10 minutes after I was done looking at the menu. The lore of good wings is long gone. Don't need to come back here read more

Ordered a pick up order for 4/19/26, we PICKED UP. The next day we see the Tracey D added a 10 dollar tip to my order. How are you going to tip yourself when I picked up my order and charge my account more !! Apparently this is an ongoing issue. Found out it happened to others from the same place. The sad thing is I had gone there and the tacony one for years and I always tip good. I haven't been there in probably over a year and half but this is ridiculous! I was picking up our food and it's fraud to charge someone's card without them approving that. This will definitely be taken further! Straight scum bag stuff read more

Ordered buffalo fingers. Along with a bunch of other stuff. These are completely burnt. Horrible taste. I wanted to Make sure that these weren't the blackened ones and they just messed up and gave them to me by mistake. I spent way too much money at this place to get food like this. read more

Curran's is what you would expect a pub to be. Cheap drinks, local banter, and a good place to watch sports. The brightest spot at Currans is the Cajun wings. Amazing to say the least. This place also has a touch tuned music player. Felt like they lowered the music volume when urban music was played. read more

Wife and I came here after the major snow last night with some friends celebrating a birthday. We had a great time with good food and conversation. We didn't get to hear the live music as the band cancelled out due to the weather, but our waitress advised that they have live music just about every Saturday so we might be back. Curran's has a pretty large selection of food; larger than I expected. Burgers, roast beef and pork, wings, all your bar fried food, and of course a full drink selection. Because of the weather the bar was not filled up but there were other adventurous souls who made it out. Maybe regulars? We had a high top table all to ourselves in the back corner with no one else in the large room. We had a burger, boneless wings Cajun and hot, regular wings BBQ, onion rings, a roast beef sandwich, and chicken wraps. Everything we had was good. Nothing outstanding, but fun food and drinks. The boneless wings were crispy, roast beef sandwich was piled high with some provolone, burger was grilled the way my friend wanted, and everyone was happy. The total bill came to about $185 not including tip for the four of us. Service was friendly and attentive. Maybe we'll be back for some live music! read more

Different Cheesesteak #920. Special Guest Eater Adam Bucci. I don't think I will offend anyone if I say I don't think many people go to Curran's for the cheesesteak. Great spot, decent lunch crowd. The bartender and guy next to us were friendly. The cheesesteak had a good roll and came with french fries. It was wet and had a heavy pepper seasoning. The beer was cold and flowing. read more

Cheesesteak is terrible and meals are put in styrofoam containers which create moisture and make things worse. Wings are amazing and atmosphere is cool but definitely 100% don't recommend takeout read more

I stopped in for a bite to eat after playing a round of golf. When I placed an order the barmaid alerted me of a March Madness Special. Domestic bottled beer and all you could eat wings for $20.00. Quite a deal. the wings were very good (not breaded). This was my first visit but will definitely be back. read more

All I need to say is you can't go wrong with the wings and fries. The wings are done exactly the way I like them and they are huge. My friend and I are huge fans. The beer menu is basic but that's okay with me and the have a generous pour. Our server has been great as well. read more

Stopped in with another couple on a Friday night pub crawl up and down the Old King's Highway, aka Bristol Pike. Plenty of parking right next to the place. It is hard next to I95. Ally our server was great. Delightful and patient. We got 50 wings of Pudgy's wing sampler. With Cajun, medium and garlic Parmesan. The wings were delicious obviously just made. A bit messy but we were with dear friends so dug in. Draft beers were also tasty Yards Pale Ale. The place was crowded it was about 615p on a Friday. The crowd was simpatico. We noticed that a band was setting up. We did not stay too long after our meal. Looked like there was going to be a cover charge for the music. The gals checked out the bathroom and reported it was freezing. It is winter time but lavs should be heated. A good, typical Irish pub. We would return. Mark & Nancy. read more

Delicious! I love there huge portion of Shepherds Pie. It has to be the tastiest pie I've ever had. The potatoes are real and hand mashed and it's always delicious. There wings are always on point and there sauce is my favorite. The wait staff is subpar, but it's consistently the same. We go here a lot anyways. read more

The wings man....wtf. Ordered 18ish wings with blue cheese and ranch dipping sauce added on for around forty dollars. Forty dollars my issue is this, for forty bucks I got some baked wings which had to been tossed in hot sauce then dried off with a towel. The wings I got had absolutely no hint of sauce, outside of the red stained skin. Also sauce was just hot sauce, for forty dollars I bought some of the driest wings in the world and brushed with tobacco sauce Never ever ever again, threw those fuckers straight in the trash and made my own. Enjoy the free money you cheap fucks read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. I called in to place an order and they had me on hold for 20 minutes. I'm an idiot for staying on the line that long. I hung up and called back and no one answered. I tried to order online and it says they are closed when they are not. read more

Great place! Great bartenders waitresses great food and bands! All around great time.

Got wings for the super bowl.. they were perfect.. great job.. definitely will be going back

Curran's is just a run of the mill Bensalem/Northeast Philly bar. They have a decent beer selection but nothing to write home about. The food menu is actually pretty decent for bar food, I'd recommend the cheese steak. The staff is usually pretty friendly and gives effort, but they ALWAYS seem to be understaffed, which always causes you to wait forever for food and drinks. I often go for quizzo night and that's the night they always seem to be understaffed which is a shame. read more

This is a great place to go grab a few drinks, but their food is a hit or Miss. I ordered a cheeseburger last week, medium well, and it came out burnt to a crisp. Took a bit and it was so dry I could not eat it, so disgusting, not juicy at all. Hubby seems to like the ribs there, they are tender and fall off the bone. Chicken cheesesteak wraps are pretty good as well. Just don't order a burger here or you will get a hard hockey puck. read more

Rating solely based on Cajun wings with side of hot sauce. Rating solely based on Cajun wings with side of hot sauce.

We went for the garlic wings. Awful. Just a lump of fried and not at all tasty. So loud we could not hear ourselves think. Bartender screamed all the time. Sorry we went. Won't be back. read more

The woman who was working on 5/23/20 was the highlight - incredibly nice and social during the covid outbreak. Ordered 20 wings and mozzarella sticks. Wings were incredibly dry - there was plenty of hot sauce but the actual chicken was just dry as all hell. The mozz sticks were good though! Willing to try it again when quarantine ends. read more

Management is top tier and the food is amazing. Love this place and will be going back daily

Great wings! Service is always excellent and food is great. I would recommend this place to people.

Typically a great experience with food and service, but the service on the evening of 4/24 was extremely disappointing, especially after I took a new customer to showcase a great establishment, but it was much less. read more

the food was good there service was good the manger made it five stars i could look at that grey fox all day read more

Husband placed an order & showed up to pick the order up and was told his order was placed at the Tacony location. He asked them to cancel that order and make the order at the Bensalem location. The owner refused and stated my husband needed to drive to Tacony; which by the way is 45 minutes out of the way . They refused to provide him service because of this. We will no longer order from Curran's and will be sure to tell all of our friends and family of the poor service they provide. Needless we're ordering from somewhere else ! read more

I picked up some wings before the eagles vs falcons game. I've been here before. Usually pretty boring inside, a lot of regulars and service members who don't pay much attention to you. The wings don't come with bleu cheese or celery which I find quite odd. The 20 hot wings were cold and very bland. No crunch and were in desperate need of more hot sauce. Between three people we ate about 14 wings and tossed the rest. Every time I go I am reminded why there is a large gap in between appearances. read more

Pretty disappointing. My husband and I came here because we heard they had good wings. The wings were average and honestly nothing special. Their fries weren't bad. The most disappointing thing though was their lack of COVID precautions. We seated ourselves and chose a seat away from others but could have chosen to sit closer if we didn't have the sense not to. Not one employee wore a mask. At the bar people sat close and the employees did not keep a distance from customers. The only good part was that our waiter was really nice and attentive. We won't be back. read more

The only thing good about this place are the wings. I don't even eat wings, and I still thought they were good. The bartenders are HORRIBLE!!!!!!!! The meanest in Bensalem. I could give you many stories, but to keep it short I'll mention only one. My wife and I went there after our wedding (It was down the street from the ceremony) as an after party idea with some family and friends. I was in my tux and my wife was in her dress still. We get to the bar (excited), and the bartender says "what can I get you?" I respond with "we just got married!!" I know it was obvious, but I was excited dammit. LOL The bartender responded "Well I hope you guys don't expect free drinks" I didn't even ask!!!! P.S. They do have one live band that plays there (I think on Fridays) that's really good. They play great covers and originals. They're called Dirty Robots. read more

I'm only here for a week and by all means their chicken was amazing, cook is amazing at what he does(order the Caitlin bbq). however I will never come back, ever. The bartender on my first note was amazing and I gave her the last in my account as tip and I felt bad. I made a few more bucks and wanted to relax so I came back. Once again drained my account and the last of my money for a tip(diffrent bare tender on the second night). She bitched at me at the bar about leaving a small tip. I am currently bawling my eyes out outside because my mental health has been so low lately and that just kinda set me off. I wanted to relax, I enjoyed their vibe and I gave them everything I could while still trying to enjoy myself during my beyond stressful life. For her to bitch to me several times loud enough for all customers nearby to hear hurts so much. I'm sorry I couldn't leave more, I'm not from here and just want to relax. But thanks now I'm gonna have the shittiest time walking back to my hotel tonight, and will refuse to ever come back. read more

A nice local Irish pub. We stayed for the live band and fundraiser. The srinks were quick and yum!

The original Curran's is on State Road, in Tacony. This Curran's, on Bristol Pike, opened up in 2007. Now, as someone who loves dive bars, this is not anywhere in that category. I'm just a frequent customer when it comes to this place because I live so close by. The place doesn't have a huge bar. Don't get me wrong, it's a long bar. But they could have layed out the bar better, maybe a wrap-around bar, to accommodate more stools. Plus, the bar has 2 video game machines on it, which kind of eat up a little room. The beer prices are pretty decent here, better than you'd expect. Not a huge selection on tap, but most of the customers drink Coors Lights or Miller Lites, especially the regulars. I've never ordered a mixed drink here, so not sure about those prices. When it comes to the food, they've got some winners. The wings are very good - especially the garlic wings. You have to ask for them, they're not on the menu. And another tip - I'm not a fan of their steak fries, so be sure to ask for curly fries, or shoe string fries. But, they have a solid selection to pick from, otherwise. And, the bartenders and wait staff are all cool to deal with. Overall, it's a really good spot. Like I said, I'm a bigger fan of dive bars, which is why I gave this place 4 out of 5 stars. read more

Go to place when you're craving wings and a beer. The wings are in my top 3 places to go for wings. A fun upscale dive with awesome food,cold drinks,always good people and great service. Really what else do you need? The perfect place to unwind. I've always had an amazing time here! read more

My review is based solely on takeout food for the wings just so everyone knows. My wife and kids were looking to do wings one night as we had a major craving. We stopped ordering from the fresh works as they were unpredictable anymore. We checked out Hooters as it's our favorite but for $1 a wing and us having 6 in the family we thought we would pass. We decided try Currans as our neighbors have said they are the best. We ordered 100 wings since they were only $55 and hoped for the best. What we got was the best. The wings were un breaded but super thick and meaty. The Cajun and the medium were fantastic. We needed up having enough left over for all of us to each lunch the next day. They definitely have some of the best wings around, and for the price it makes it even more attractive. By the way the waitress went out of her way to help me when we figured out we ordered from the wrong location. She had an order rushed to accommodate us. Thank you for that! read more

I've eaten here a few time and the good was always decent. That changed today. We ordered and our food was bad, under cooked fries for everyone. Burnt burgers for others. I would not recommend! read more
