    Chicken pesto gnocchi
    Janet C.

    Casual spot, good for groups. Staff was attentive and stopped by multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. I tried the white sangria and chicken pesto gnocchi. The gnocchi was pretty good and flavorful - though a bit on the salty side. They have outdoor seating and there was a live musician which was fun.

    Good food. Recommend off the specials we got fish tacos and tortilla chicken soup. Fish tacos were great. Also got some fries and they were HOT. and delicious. Tortilla soup was not hit though. Barely warm don't know what happened. But it was really good so I ate it super fast. I also got the manhattan jack Daniel's special. I was warned they don't make good manhattans and that was quite true. To me it tasted like a dirty sock and watered down. lol but once I drank half of it the liquor kicked in and I stopped caring so much. But I normally make it at home with an American rye whiskey like bulleit and sweet red vermouth and bitters, which I was not getting notes of vermouth at all in this manhattan and whiskey wasn't strong. Anywho I still really like coming here and catching some live music too

    Outdoor dog friendly

    One of my to go place for drinks and brunch previously but recently has been one of my favorite place to go for spring, summer and early fall because they are dog friendly outside. Might be too cold for late fall and winter for outdoor. Drinks are always delicious and strong -- I've had just classic amaretto sour, margaritas and mimosa to their menu drinks item the blackberry lemonade, watermelon margarita and state of mine. The food hasn't disappointed me yet. I've had the chicken & waffle, burgers, the omelette and probably more things that I can't remember but everything has been good and reasonably priced. I've always mostly good service as well. When I have my dog, we are offered water which is never necessary but awesome. Will be back soon.

    Crispy Chicken Sandwich and Fries

    Staying at a friend's place and this was in the area. Glad we stopped by! Mozzarella sticks were pretty good and the sandwich was delicious. Fries were good too! Cute little space and nice staff. I'd definitely go again!

    Moonshine has the best food in South Philly hands down. The staff are super kind, and the drinks are themed to perfection. Highly recommend!

    I was just passing by and hungry so I get an order to go, tried thier crab cake sliders and it was delicious! Definitely would be back again for it. Looks like a chill neighborhood bar! And they have outdoor seating as well if that's what you prefer!

    Mozzarella sticks

    You must go. In SoPhilly and they have parking!! Totally unassuming corner place, bigger inside than you think. Def neighborhood bar but an amazing menu so so many things to choose from to please all palates. Ask about specials they are a winner, solid drinks too. Oh I'm telling everyone about them. Knowledgeable servers who have pretty much eaten everything there because they been with them for some time. And they have a few tvs with sports on for ya too. Go go now. You won't be disappointed. And the wings crispy, fries perfect and the chicken picatta ravioli.... Oooohhh weeee. They keep it crispy under the sauce, ravioli perfectly cooked. Fresh mozzarella sticks and the creamy balsamic on the salad--- yum!!

    Bloody Mary & a Orange Mooncicle
    Holly G.

    Checking out what could possibly be our new neighborhood and wanted to try Moonshine for quite a while. Luckily it was a nice breezy summer day. Not scorching hot & humid. Not a fan of outside seating but it was such a nice day we opted to soak up the atmosphere. So nice to see all types of families with children, pups and each enjoying the their day. Started with a couple of Cocktails - they had me at $5 Bloody Mary's- and an Orange Mooncicle (highly recommended!) Brunch was Chicken & waffles and a chicken Sammie. Both cooked to perfection. Ample portions & a nice honey glaze on the chicken. The star of the day was the staff. All were kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. It really will be what brings us back including a turn at the jukebox & the expansive dinner menu. Fat chik review: 4 double chins )))) - good armless seating, table to thigh ratio & didn't have to ask. (In case you are new to my feed 4 double chins is a 5* equivalent) We'll be back and perhaps dragging some folks with us.

    First time in Pennsport area and brought our two kids and sat outside for lunch. Nice little corner spot with friendly and fast service. Good food and good drink selection too.

    Calamari, loaded fries.

    What an eclectic crowd this place draws most unusual as I looked around, no matter I was there for a late lunch. I was quite satisfied with the burger I ordered, it was slightly overcooked but tasted alright. Others in our party remarked that while their food was just okay it wasn't quite what it use to be and felt the place had slipped a bit. Still another wasn't satisfied at all with the avocado, tomato grilled cheese sandwich and I had to agree. The bread was barely warm, cheese wasn't melted, the center was stone cold, it never should have left the kitchen like that. The apps on the other hand were good, fried calamari with an Asian dipping sauce and the loaded fries were a hit. There is nothing memorable about our dining experience that would beckon a return visit.

They aren't lying when they say that they have an extensive beer menu! I had a Dancing Gnome Kolsch which was very good and then a Corsendork Christmas Ale which was fantastic! I normally don't like spiced beer, but this one was perfect! My wife and I shared the cheese and salumi plate which was so delicious! My only re is not getting the large! My wife had the crispy chicken sandwich which was really good. The crust was crunchy and the chicken was tender and juicy. I had the porchetta sandwich which was recommended by our waiter and was SO DELICIOUS! It is a must! At first my wife was concerned about the limited menu. They may not have an extensive menu but what they do, they do right! Our waiter was really great and very welcoming, especially as we were from out of town. The place has a rustic vibe which fits with its old town location. We loved it! If we ever find ourselves back in Philly, we will definitely visit Glory again!

    Pretty good overall!…read more Considerably big space for Philly. They had an upstairs too but I am not sure why it wasn't open during majority of the night. When the big crowd from the conference left they opened the upstairs. The Mac and cheese is SO GOOD. Very creamy and rich, the bread crumbs were an amazing surprise edition. This fatty finished it before the beer came. Lots of beer choices. I took off a start be size they were under staffed. So we were just waiting around for the check and the waitress kept forgetting what we asked for. Honestly, not her fault. There were like ~100 people and only 3 employees that I saw. So no designated waiter for tables. These poor 3 employees were the bartenders and the table waiters.

Worth stopping by if you're in the West Village! Food: 4 Drinks: 5 Service: 4 Value: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Food: Surprisingly good. We shared the chicken quesadilla. It was filled to the filled to the brim and delicious. They cooked it perfectly with the edges getting extra crispy like a tortilla chip. I didn't have high expectations for a place thats primarily a bar, but this blew me away all things considered. Drinks: Best taproom in the city. 20+ premium options. They have an awesome selection of beers, including some local options. They have wine and liquor too, but you should focus on the beer. This is the place to go for a good draught. Service: Servers are friendly and down to earth. They're great at suggesting different beers. Value: Not cheap, but not bad. Beers are $8-10 (pretty much market price in the West Village) and food is a decent bargain given how much food you get. Atmosphere: Its a cross between an old school pub and a sports bar. Its dark and 90% male (my wife always comments on how male heavy it is) but I think it has a good vibe. Good beer, good food options, and friendly servers.

The crowd is pretty young, but as a mid-40s, I don't feel out of place. The bartenders are knowledgable and always helpful in making decisions. Why they didn't get 5-stars: This is actually a 4.5-star place and only gets dinged 1/2 star is that is can be hard to get a table or a spot to be. It's a very small venue, so be prepared to stand around a bit. That's it, great beers, good vibes, still a great spot!!!
