    Pool table #2 and projector screen
    Alex H.

    This place is what you expect it to be, in the best way. It's a dive bar atmosphere with a passion for Philadelphia sports. Contrary to other reviews from 3+ years ago that hinted at some negative experiences, we have (and continue to have) very positive and friendly experiences at Scanlons. I can't say anything about the food because we intentionally go there to drink beer and watch sports on TV, but they have bar snacks that seem more or less cooked in a fryer. So Can't go wrong with a snack there. There are TVs visible from any spot in the bar, they have some craft beer, and a huge bottle/can selection. One of the best parts is that they have a huge projector screen and two Pool tables in the back ($1.50 per play) that are in good condition, and the people that play there are friendly and welcoming. No pool sharks when we go. I would recommend ignoring all prior negative reviews and checking it out for yourself, especially if you are new to the neighborhood. It will likely be your new neighborhood watering hole.

    Awesome Philly cheese steaks. Grilled onions w white cheese for $8. WOW the best. Nice draft. Clean with back room for games and two very nice pool tables. We will be back.

    On the phone, typical during my most recent time.

    Unlike the first review, I think the prices are pretty standard ($2 PBRs, $2.

    Fun place to pop into on Main St. good beer selection and great food options for people that want…read morebar food but with a twist! Service was attentive. We have ordered takeout from here before and I will say, their pizzas and cheesesteaks are stellar. Not gonna lie, I didn't love the vodka pasta. I was glad I got the cutlet on top because it was good but I felt like the sauce was less vodka style and more like a red pepper saix. I wouldn't order again BUT I would still come back and get something else!

    Sadly not a spot I recommend nor will I go back. Heard mixed reviews and now I know why…read more Seating is limited and incredibly uncomfortable. The food was ok but crazy expensive for the quality and amount. It's on the menu but easy to miss that the prices are CASH prices. The customers pay for the restaurants card charges. Automatic tips for tabs over $85 but it's never mentioned by the server, nor is it listen on the receipt. The receipt even still had the section for tip for 20%, 22%, or 25% which is INSANE to include if you're already being charged the tip fee.... $168 for lunch for 4 people is wild, especially because we didn't have any alcohol which is what usually jacks the bill price. Mac & cheese egg rolls-crispy and gooey cheese with a buffalo cheese dip. Very bland without the dip. Mozzarella triangles fried cheese- very cheesy and crispy. Not much flavor. Smash burger- tender and juicy. Cheese steak meat and tasted like a cheese steak with sauce. Fries are cool and creative. Mamas meatballs- very bland and flavorless. Clearly frozen meatballs Our sever was the best part. She was super sweet, nice, and attentive.

    It's been awhile since we've been and I was so excited because I love blue crabs unfortunately I…read morewas kind of disappointed. I'm not sure why but most of the crabs were empty like void of meat. We ordered 9 crabs and 3 of them were mushy. I hate to write this because we used to love this place, maybe it's too early in the season for the crabs. My husband and son also had burgers and liked them, my drink was good. I'm sure I'll go back but maybe not for crabs.

    First time visit a couple of weeks ago for Friday happy hour. We checked out the inside to decide…read moreif we wanted to sit in there or outside - typically local bar/pub feel with high tops and long bar seating, tvs around the bar area, etc. Because the weather was ok, we decided to sit outside at the wooden tables. We're helped immediately and given the run down on the happy hour specials, which is the reason we came there. Long Island were one of the drinks so we both got that in a strawberry flavor for the first round, a long with some tequila shots. Long Islands were STRONG and mixed very well for the strawberry round we had - we eventually ordered a second round of regular Long Islands that were also made well. Food wise, we initially ordered Mozzarella Sticks, Mac & Cheese Bites and Buffalo Shrimp. Least favorite was the Mac and Cheese Bites - thinking if there was a different sauce pairing then what it came with (tasted like honey mustard) if would've probably been better. Our favorite was the Buffalo Shrimp - it tasted so good! Saucy but not too much, good taste to the sauce - I don't think every buffalo sauce tastes the same - nice crunch to it, good size like jumbo shrimp and good portion on the app. We liked them so much we ordered another basket of them lol. The Mozzarella Sticks were also really good - crispy, tasty and also good portion for an appetizer. Liked the place that's a good happy hour and game watch place. Plan to check them out again.
