Pretty good experience on my part!! I went with a few friends and some of them didn't enjoy their meals as much as I did and thought it was a little weird but I enjoyed it mostly. It's a cute small bar restaurant. Not a ton of seats but was super nice and chill in there! The waitress was very nice and accommodating. I got the school teacher cocktail and I HIGHLY recommend. Super light and delicious. We got the chips and guacamole- the chips were VERY salty and the guacamole was very "lemony". The fried pickles were good though! I did not try the Brussel sprouts but I heard from my friends that they weren't amazing. The falafel was always a bit odd but still was pretty good. The BYO burger was KILLER. 100% you need to get that If you are in the burger, which I always am. Amazing blend of meats and great fries to boot! read more

Excellent! Our whole party enjoyed their food. Chicken burger was delicious. Fries delicious. Yum yum sauce! Brussel spouts are a must if you like them! Service was attentive and friendly. Spacious and they have a patio area too. Will definitely visit again. read more

This is one of our favorite bars in Philly! Great decor, friendly staff, and the owner is wonderful. In addition to the historic wood bar, they have a lovely covered patio. The architectural finds that adorn the bar and patio really give this spot a unique look and atmosphere. You will find no other spot in Philly with quite this sophisticated charm. read more

The Sutton's Burger with the blue cheese has to be in the conversation as the best in town and is worth the trip for non-locals by itself. Nice secluded back patio with cornhole. Get ready for the pun jokes because they come fast and furious here lol. Great spot. read more

Great! Brought the family there for a recent birthday party and everyone had an excellent time. Friendly wait staff and delicious food.

Great burgers and fries. Wings with buffalo sauce always good, albeit a bit smaller than they used to be. IPAs are on the draft list. Choice of inside or out. We chose the backyard this round with the nice weather. Always warm and homey inside - looking forward to post-covid. Great staff, always welcoming and friendly. read more

Just the name alone made me love it. I went this past weekend for a birthday brunch and this place is a gem! It was so good and so close to home that it may just become my new neighborhood bar! It gets a solid 4.5/5 from me. I went with a group of five and the group consensus was a very well-deserved five stars. Suttons is small, cozy, and delightful! The BOTTOMLESS mimosas were the most noteworthy part of the experience - made to perfection with a 70/30 alcohol to OJ ratio and continuously replenished. Five pitchers later we were feeling pleased and very buzzed. The 2nd best part were the Brussel Sprouts...I can firmly say that I've never tasted better brussels sprouts in my life. The recipe is super simple (crispy brussels just tossed in honey with a hint of lemon) but the taste is exceptional and unique! These brussels sprouts were superior to the fries which is very very rare. Most of us got the Crispy Chicken Sandwich which gets a 3.5/5 from me but everyone else in my party gave it a 4. The spicy dijon sauce fails to amplify the taste of the sandwich and its on the pricier side (adding a side is $2 extra). I can say the chicken patty was very tasty and came on a brioche bun for the win! I went with a side of fries which were good though nothing special but what complimented my sandwich best were the brussels sprouts. We loved everything and we will definitely be coming back to explore the rest of the menu! The outside seating is superb and its actually a closed-off backyard instead of being the usual sidewalk seating that's so common nowadays. Best part of outdoor seating is the decent size TV they have that's perfect for sport lovers! We went on a quiet Sunday with few people at the bar and even less outside so it felt like we had the entire backyard to our party which made us enjoy out time even more. It's a quaint and promising bar with excellent service that I cannot recommend enough! . read more

Beautiful bar that has a pretty deep draft and can list and is super clean plus enjoyable. Food consists of normal bar snacks like fries, hummus platters, and fried things. Enjoyed the service and how many options were available for drinks. Great spot to visit after a hard climb next door; outdoor seating available too when the weather is nice. read more

Let me first say...They did a good job! Ordered the Coconut Shrimp, thGo-Chu-Jang wings and had the BYO Burger. Everything was delicious. Can't wait to go when the weather breaks to sit out on the deck. I went again - the menu had some updates options - soooo good. I'll be back again read more

At first glance, I was a little hesitant about the smaller menu, although sometimes fewer choices are better!! My partner and I split the wings, coconut shrimp, and we each had a burger with fries (yes, lots of food). The fries were crispy to perfection. The burger, ordered medium rare, was juicy and flavorful. Honestly, the best burger I've had in a LONG time. I had room enough for a wing (top notch) and will be saving the coconut shrimp for lunch. The owner (I think) came to check on us and showed us an awesome book of the reconstruction of the restaurant. Re: COVID precautions: the restaurant is small, but has the cutest back patio with a TV and heaters. Everyone is 6+ feet away from each other and servers/owners were masked up and cleaned the tables well between each customer. I am not in this neighborhood often, but next time I am back I will return to Sutton's. read more

The space was chill, cozy and quiet on a Wednesday night. The bartender was nice, and the dirty martini was excellent. I moved nearby so I'll definitely be going back often read more

Made our second trip to Sutton's yesterday and a few months in they are still doing it right. The beer selection offered great options and is clearly thoughtfully put together. My wife, who doesn't drink beer, had plenty of options too...and wants to try the entire cocktail list.:) The food was not only awesome but really reasonable. The grilled Veggie sandwich came on homemade focaccia bread, which was perfect. We split the homemade tots and the watermelon salad which included fresh arugula, feta cheese, mango all in perfect quantities. Everything was right around the $10 mark. The place looks beautiful and you can just tell that the owners have put a great amount of thought into every aspect of the place; you really can't ask for too much more than that. We walked there from our house in Fishtown and it only took about 10 minutes, if we wanted a Lyft it would have only been $5.50. I'm going to stop being lazy and make the extra effort to get to Sutton's more often, it is clear that they are making the extra effort to make sure you have a wonderful experience. read more

A Kensington gem with a relaxed vibe and a simple menu inclusive of varied salad, app and entree selections. There is something for everyone. All food is prepared to perfection. The beer provisions are noteworthy as well as the wines and spirits. If you're fortunate to reside near this locale or decide pop in for a visit this place brings it on with great drinks, food and fun. Aside from indoor seating, there are outdoor seating areas in the front and rear of the establishment - I recommend the cozy rear patio. My family and I find time to return as often as possible - wish we lived closer. read more

I think it sums up my feelings that my stomach started to rumble as I began this review... A perfect evening in Fishtown at a relatively new restaurant - 5 stars for Sutton's! We were visiting friends who lived in the area and accidentally missed our other reservations because we had spent too much time at the pre-dinner watering hole. Having been to Sutton's on a few occasions, our friend raved about it and dangled the phrase "best mac and cheese in the world" before our hungry hearts, and we were in! I was apprehensive about 5 of us wandering in around 7:30pm on a Saturday evening without reservations, but thankfully we were promptly seated in their adorable dining area. Our server was super friendly and fun, he was being trained that evening -but his service was prompt, his jokes were funny, and he was attentive enough that we weren't searching for simple things like more water or napkins as is sometimes the case. We were ravenous when we sat down, and at the recommendation of our friend, ordered the Mac and Cheese starter and the Brussel Sprouts for the table to share. I am not usually a mac&cheese order-er; but I have to say, this was damn good. The bowl was piled high with delicious noodles covered in cheddar, curd, gouda, and parmesan panko crust - and for $10, it was plenty to share 5 ways - I even got a small helping of seconds! Seemed like there was bits of carrots or vegetables in the mix, it wasn't too glutinous (not to be confused with glutenous - it was definitely had gluten), and was perfect for a cold winter evening. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts were the other show stopper at the table - absolutely phenomenal. They're fried Brussels Sprouts tossed with sea salt and lemon - plenty for $6! I know that frying vegetables, somewhat negates the whole point of having vegetables, but just try these, and tell me you're not in love. For dinner, the hubs and I shared the Warm Winter Salad and the Sutton Burger. Both were delicious - see below for deets! //Warm Winter Salad: We chose to add the Moroccan chicken - which was amazing - for some extra protein. This salad was delicious, the vegetables were all super bright and flavorful, and tahini dressing was the perfect amount of creaminess - I'd order this again in a heartbeat! According to the menu, it's made with arugula, but that night it seemed they subbed spinach for the arugula - i REALLY liked the spinach though! Bonus - it's served with more of those crispy brussel sprouts! (toasted bulgur, arugula, cabbage, fried Brussels sprouts, toasted almonds, with tahini dressing). //Sutton's Burger: This was a really delicious burger! We ordered it medium, and it was cooked perfectly. The whole thing would have been too much to handle on my own, it was very heavy with all the flavors. I asked for a couple extra pickles on the side and they brought out a whole bunch (of the most delicious pickles!!) - so I loaded it high with those crunchy vinegary pickles - it really brightened my half of the burger up a lot! #pickleobsessed. The fries were really good too - the hubs ate most of them, though (blue cheese, sweet balsamic onions, fresh greens, garlic aioli, on a brioche bun with fries or a salad). They had a full bar, and the drinks were pretty creative looking! I can't wait to come back! This place does not take reservations. It's only about 5 months old, and I can guarantee this place is already growing a cult following. Check it out soon, before it gets too popular - you won't be sorry! read more

I am a regular, I live nearby. I go mostly for the drinks, best Dark and Stormy in the city and they spoil me by making it with real Ginger Beer, I am also a huge fan of the Sunday School Teacher. Katie and Wiley (Bartender) are really cool, they make it feel like your visiting a friends and not a Bar. The Mac and Cheese has changed a few times, recently its been a bit runny, but I usually start with those and the Brussels Sprouts, which are consistent and fan-tastic! I don't try anything new anymore, its too hit or miss for me to feel comfortable to do so. The menu isn't costly, I haven't done Happy Hour I usually stick to places in the city or in Fishtown for that I don't know what happened to my favorite waitress, or Ryan the other Bartender I like. Either way Suttons is OK at best, I don't know how often I'd go if it wasn't two doors down the street for me. Also, overtime it's lacked a feel good vibe, I want from my neighborhood bar. I think it's the lack of diversity over time, like I said I had a favorite waitress and some select staff I enjoyed and I've kinda seen them disappear slowly. It's a new bar so I'm giving it the B.O.D that it's still figuring the staff situation out. read more

I am THRILLED this place opened up in Kensington! I came here for dinner and was not disappointed. I didn't have high hopes for the cocktails but was pleasantly surprised at the variety and quality. We ordered three appetizers and an entree between the two of us which was more than enough food. The fried pickles and Mac& cheese were our favorites out of the appetizers. We didn't love the entree options surprisingly (not a lot of vegetarian options), but the appetizers more than make up for it. The place wasn't too crowded, nor was it empty on a Saturday night. Service was fantastic. I will definitely be visiting again...also, caught a glimpse of the happy hour menu and it looks like they have great deals! read more

We found this place on yelp, so we decided to check it out based on the reviews. Glad we did! The atmosphere is great , excellent service, the burgers were absolutely delicious! The people were so friendly and welcoming. A big shout out to our sever Al who is so kind, down to earth. Definitely would come here again the next time we're in Philly. read more

Went to Suttons on north 5th st. in phila for the 1st time last Thursday, and it was AWESOME! Great food, great drink selection, great staff! I'll be back! read more

Stayed at Airbnb within walking distance and so glad we stopped by for our first meal in philly. Came in on a Wednesday night and pretty much everything was awesome. Homemade tater tots - never had them prepared this way. Cheese sauce was great and wanted more. Herb sauce was even better. Quinoa with falafel salad - really good. Had some spice, only improvement was it was slightly dry. Basalmic vinegarette would take this to perfect level. Mac cheese - flavor and texture was perfect. Could have been warmer. Service was great. Atmosphere was perfect - fun, not too loud, but a lot of people would make it loud. Highly recommend this. read more

Great service, great food. They were super patient with our toddler. I know this is weird to say but their buns are delicious so get the burger or chicken sandwich. And the fries are perfect. read more

We stopped by on the way back from a Fringe Festival event at the Icebox Project Space in the Crane Arts building. What a find! Wonderful cocktail list, great on-tap list (especially for a space this size), well stocked bar, good and wonderfully prepared dinner selections. Quick summary -- We sat outside on the back patio (there are also on-street tables and indoor seating, but I recommend the quiet and industrial chic of the patio). Cocktails -- well balanced, interesting flavor combinations, well made. Coconut shrimp with three sauces. Crunchy chicken platter with a well-made salad as well as the Chicken Tingo Tortillas. I had the tingo, and they (three four-inch tortillas each with a massive mound of tingo, vegetables, etc.) were fantastic. Niall Murphy (owner) joined us for a bit as we finished. A fascinating person who knows how to run a great establishment. Good knowledge of the locale's history. Showed us a picture book he made of the complete rebuilding of the space -- an amazing transition from a shell to a beautiful neighborhood space. We'll be attending more events at the Maas Building and Sutton's is so well placed between Maas and the Temple Regional Rail station. We'll definitely be back! read more

Best spot in the neighborhood IMO. A good mixture of Japanese and American whiskey's to settle up to along with arguably the best burger and wings in the city. A lot of attention to detail throughout the place and an ever evolving outdoor space that will soon be the spot to chill n hang. Love the variety of spelling bee, bingo, Quizo, live music, and even a burlesque dance or two. Overall a hard to beat spot to grab a drink, a bite to eat, listen to some music, and engage in singing me banter. A place that will call you by name when you happen to walk in. read more

Excellent food & drinks. Curry cauliflower is a personal favorite. But the best part is the owner and staff. Just great people and great service. Cool outdoor patio with a tv. In a neighborhood that's in the process of gentrification with limited bar/restaurant options, this is by far the best spot. That's not to say it's only good because of the neighborhood. It's a great spot and worth checking out. read more

My go-to spot for food and drinks. Amazing pub-style menu, awesome atmosphere and top notch service. The owner, Niall is super cool and always very warm and welcoming. My favorites are the wings, the fries and the fried chicken sandwich. read more

We went to Sutton's for the second time last week. It was very enjoyable. The food is consistently good and the service is great. The server and bartender are very attentive. There is also a great beer selection. We wished we lived closer because we would go here for dinner at least once a week. Next we are in the area will be definitely return for dinner. read more

So excited to have this across the street from me! The ambiance was great! Think industrial cocktail bar. The food was delicious. We shared a bunch of things: we started with curry cauliflower which was one of my favorite things (the serving was bigger than the picture. We dug in before I took it), pierogies served with amazing caramelized onions and a mustard sour cream on the side, and the quinoa salad. Our main courses were the Moroccan chicken which was moist and full of flavor and the fish and chips which was lightly fried and served with home made tartar sauce and seasoned fries. All plates were a very decent size and very reasonably priced. As for drinks we had the forged ahead which was Smokey mezcal which my friend loved and I had the Sunday school teacher which was vodka, rose, lemon and bubbles- amazing. I cannot wait to go back and try more! Specifically the mac and cheese which the table next to us got. read more

HUGE FAN. We didn't stay long, just a quick stop. I suggest the poutin! Thinking about it as I write this review and my mouth is salivating! We'll be back for more food! read more

Love this place. The atmosphere is amazing, bar tenders are very cool, and food was great! Also we went on Tuesday and they had bingo + a spelling contest with multiple prizes. Will be back next week! read more

We stopped by for a drink not knowing the hours and the owner, Niall, told us that he would stay open so he could accommodate us. Not only did he let us sample the beer before buying, he also made us a specialty cocktail on the house. We were the only guests there and we had a great conversation with Niall. We mentioned our previous visit where we enjoyed the fresh food and wings. Next thing we know, Niall whips up a free side of fries and a few wings for us to share! We couldn't believe the hospitality. He truly knows how to make guests feel welcomed. He is also working on building an additional outdoor seating area that looks great. The food and atmosphere are on point. Niall really cares about his guests having a good experience. I truly cannot say enough positive things about this place. Highly recommend! read more

We just had a very tasty meal at this lovely new spot on north 5th Street. Good food, good service in a very cool spot!

Absolutely killer food and atmosphere. Niall and Al were so kind and funny! 110% would recommend!!

Suttons is great, first off... All the food I have had looked and sounded good, and when I ordered it, each meal tasted incredible! They have great local beers on tap. The bar tenders are friendly. I am not from Philadelphia but Suttons is one of the nicer bars I have been to. A lot of Philadelphia gets a bad rap for fear of violence of some sort. There are other bars on 5th street I have been to and enjoy. However, Suttons is worth anyone's while. On Friday nights they have a country band come and play- Brenden Skwire and the Country G9ld Classics. They are a fun band too and give me something to look forward to on amy given Friday night at Suttons. read more

Good spot in an up and coming area. Friendly service and tasty food. Pays tribute to Philly's manufacturing past.

This is a very beautiful spot for a drink or dinner. Great vibe here. The owner, bartender, and staff were friendly and professional. I just had a bar snack that was delicious, and their specialty cocktails are very nice. Mine had gin, sweet citrus and a touch of bitter...lovely. I will pop in again. It is very new. read more

This place has such a sexy, cozy vibe. And the owner and bartenders are so friendly. We wanted to watch the Liverpool game one day and they put it on for us. My husband and I have been here for both dinner and brunch. The food is great. For dinner, we've gotten their wings, burger, and flatbread. All delicious. For brunch they had house-made pastries that were so lovely. Their breakfast sandwich was also nice and hearty. And their milk tea took me back to my childhood. And we were pleasantly surprised to know that they carried Action Bronson's Stillwater 7000 (it tastes like a beautiful marriage between beer and white wine). Also, take advantage of their cute patio before the warm weather leaves us! read more
