    Lorraine bar should have a slogan "The Neighborhood bar" since it is a staple on Ridge and 15th. It is the perfect spot to meet up and grab a drink with your neighbors and meet new friends over a cold one. A dive bar for certain which is not a bad thing. Once you enter there are usually a few people at the bar chatting in the low lighting atmosphere, with the smell of hops in the air. The drink options are hand written on the wall across from the bar and the bartender is usually ready for the next order. They have good beer options but if you're looking for fancy cocktails or an extensive wine list you are in the wrong place. The prices are good so that's a definite thumps up. Once you grab your drink you can sit at the bar, go towards the back where there are some games, or head out back to the outside seating area. I normally sit at the bar or go out back because there is a slight stench in the back seating area by the bathrooms. My rating is based solely on the fact that, if you are looking for a dive bar in the area this is it. But if you are looking for wine and cocktail options, nice decor, and ambiance...this is not it.

    Great bartender! We had some new beers and ciders we've never tried. Pickle back shots too! There was a great playlist and great games because Thirsty Dice down the street said our reservation wasn't good. Lots of open seating in the back. Really cool black light mural in the back. We had an awesome time!

    This place is weird. Has outdoor space, pinball, and a good mix of cheap and craft beers. A Francisville staple.

Kobe Sliders...good Chili Crisp Chicken Bao...very good, balanced with all the right flavors and the Bao Bun is like biting into a cloud of dough. Kim Chee Fried Rice...really good, this was definitely our favorite. Riced cooked perfectly and the flavors were so memorable with the egg in the middle.

It's a smaller enclosed back patio area with one long table, a long bar, and some wall seats. It definitely gets packed so get there early or be lucky to grab a spot. Staff here always good about making sure everything runs smoothly and it's a fun time. Their food options are pretty fairly priced and most are good picks. Haven't had everything personally, but the banh mi, bao buns, and kimchi fried rice are all decent. Crab rangoons, dumplings, and satay skewers were fine but I wouldn't get again and instead try something else. Drinks also good even at regular price. Fun spot for after work or with friends on the weekend. Thanks

To be young again!…read more it's my sister's annual birthday week and we finished the night off after walking philly for what felt like 2 hours (25 minutes) and stumbled upon this club! the bouncers at the door were hella friendly (thanks billy) and the security inside kept a tight room. we joined in upon like 4 birthday parties and a full bottle service. needless to say the shots being poured were plentiful. 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.

    Dear reader, Little…read moreGay Pub was quite easily one of our favourite spots in Philly. We went with a group two nights in a row, and everyone had such a great time both nights, which I think says rather a lot. It is not every place that earns an immediate return visit, let alone the very next evening. The music was good, the drinks were great, and the staff was super nice and friendly the entire time, which made the whole experience even better. The place was also really clean, and it never felt too crowded, which was especially appreciated with a group. There was room to actually enjoy ourselves without feeling packed in or shouted over. The rooftop was absolutely the crowd favourite and was so nice with the great weather. It really gave the whole place an extra bit of charm and made it very easy to settle in and stay a while. The location is also excellent, which made it a very convenient spot to come back to. Overall, this place delivered a thoroughly fun time, good drinks, and a very easy atmosphere to enjoy. We would absolutely go back and would happily recommend it.

I understand safety first but I would have liked to seen more. The bartender was friendly and took my likes and offered me a drink to match them. They did a great job - something sweet with cherries, vodka and a touch of Smokey tequila. Upon hearing it was my friends birthday and us willing to try suggestions made based on our likes the bartender gave us drinks on the house. So amazing!! Great place, amazing staff and yummy drinks. Can't go wrong with that combo.
