    Visit at Sweeneys Friday night. Awesome cover band great food and nice and well pored drinks. Beer assortment and food is on point. Lots of room to hang and have your drinks or even a full meal. Awesome neighborhood bar or pub and definitely a very friendly staff. Service is on point and lots of parking. Will go to again for sure. Keep up the great job. Update.... Second visit super busy awesome night. Wait staff is super friendly. And don't forget to tip your staff.

    Great spot for live music- there is a parking lot with about 100 spaces in the back (used for SEPTA), and they have a full menu as well as a full bar here! Good food and great prices, two pool tables and numerous games like darts everywhere

    All around excellent local bar! There are two full bar areas inside with lots of seating, so it never feels too crowded even on a busy night. Plenty of flatscreen TVs always tuned to sports, two pool tables and electronic dart boards make it a great place to hang out and unwind after a long week -- which is made even better by the live music they host every Friday and Saturday night (most often without a cover). The prices are very reasonable on a normal day and they always have some sort of special going, whether it's for drinks or food (as is the case with their free Eagles half-time buffet). The place is a bit hard to judge from the outside, so it took my wife and I a while to stop by for the first time, but since then this has become our go to bar. Definitely worth checking out!

    Fun loving staff

    Sweeney's is always a good time. It's a classic bar with a great and friendly staff and the food is AMAZING. Their wings are the best in Philly. It's a feel good neighborhood bar where everyone knows your name and their always glad you came.

Multiple TV's, a good variety of draft and canned beverages, and good food choices. The soup special for the day was split pea with ham. Talk about a little childhood nostalgia, Hit the spot! The french fries and wings were also good. Great place to take a break while walking around the city.

I'm not sure how accountable this review will be, as I did take out not stayed. They were having happy hour but it didn't count for me as I was take out I guess. I got the mozzarella sticks were bomb with the sauce and I got the creamy Mac and cheese. I was excited for the Mac and cheese because I had one last night that was amazing from somewhere else. I got back to my hotel my second but I found a hair. Like a fatty I threw it to the side and kept eating it anyways. Unlike a true fatty, I didn't finish it. So unholy for a Mac and cheese lover like myself... but it was too acidic for me. I couldn't keep eating it. So I'm basing this review solely on the food. The service seemed ok? They seemed nice, but can't judge that as I did take out.

    Finally got here! Ye Olde Ale House My good buddy Erik…read moreMalmberg has been telling me about these beef sandwiches since the day I first met him. Recently, The Godfather of Meat did a keen review and video, in which everything looked awesome. It took us about 45 minutes from Emmaus, and it was worth the trip. House made roasted beef with the house gravy on a sensational Kaiser roll -- was what we came for and they delivered! Piled high and fresh with provolone cheese. This is the best beef sandwich I have had in decades. Simple quality at its finest! This has quickly become my gold standard classic beef sandwich. The "Matt Fries", were interesting and completely unique: fresh crispy fries topped with generous black pepper, old bay seasoning, Parmesan cheese and Turkey gravy. It worked! We enjoyed them and the large portion was more than enough for 2-3 people. Steph Rush very much enjoyed the mussels in red sauce -- another generous portion, served with was bread. I had an order of the cold shrimp , which is weekends only. Fresh, cooked perfectly and extra horseradish in the cocktail sauce by request. We were overjoyed with what we ordered and I love they have birch beer on tap, my favorite! The joint was packed and busy, our waitress had her hands full in her section. We are looking forward to a return trip ! #rushieeats

We secured the last booth available, ordered our drinks and anxiously awaited the infamous beef sandwiches. To say I was disappointed is a bit harsh, but worthy of such high accolades they are not. It is a decent fresh made beef sandwich, but nothing compared to DiNics. I would also rate Bob Morton's over this sandwich as well. Probably on par with Old original Nicks in Springfield- but their gravy fries are superior over the Olde Ale House. We also ordered wing that were overcooked , dry and only adorned with basic hot sauce, lacking the flavor profile we prefer. A good place to try, a decent sandwich and friendly service. A full 3 stars and another beef under our belts. Onto the next.
