The Goat's Beard - Comfort Food Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Dish Ordered: * TGB Smash Burger * 30 Day Strawberry * Fried Pickles Visited With: * Early dinner with friends Service: 10/10 The service was excellent. Our server was amazing, patient, kind, and full of great recommendations. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Food: 10/10 The food and drinks were outstanding. The 30 Day Strawberry was smooth and refreshing, with no strong alcohol taste. The fried pickles were crispy and flavorful, and the cheesesteak egg rolls were well-seasoned with a perfectly crunchy exterior. The pulled pork taco was decent but not a standout. The TGB Smash Burger stole the show. It juicy, well-seasoned patties, delicious buns, and balanced flavors that worked perfectly together. Ambiance: 7/10 The restaurant is cozy and beautifully designed. The bathroom was clean and comfortably warm, which was especially appreciated during winter. However, it can get very loud when crowded, making conversation difficult. Overall Experience: A This was a great spot for an early dinner with friends. The food and service were the highlights of the experience. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, especially for the burgers and drinks. read more

Popped in here for early dinner and had a pleasant experience. A few different vibes going on, both in the atmosphere and the menu. The downstairs feels more like a bar while the upstairs was a bit nicer. It was pretty cozy in there, especially with the snowfall. The apps and mains are truly all over the map. We started with the fried pickles. It came with a gochujang sauce. We also shared the Detroit style pizza which was pretty solid/authentic. They had a decent cocktail/beer selection as well. The service was very friendly and accommodating. They kindly sat two of us and allowed us to order a drink/app while we waited for the rest of our party. Would surely recommend! read more

Great bar/restaurant in the heart of Manayunk that locally sources their fare. They have a wide selection of local brews and drink specials. I've also noticed they have an extensive collection of bourbons and whiskey. They have daily happy hour deals and the staff is very friendly. I would describe the vibe as gastropub style. read more

Came here with a friend for lunch. We were seated right away and the hostess and wait staff were super friendly and attentive. I ordered the avocado toast and substituted my side salad for French fries. The fries were so good but I was a bit underwhelmed by my avocado toast. Overall, gave it 4 stars because of how attentive the service was. read more

When I fly into Philly on business, I always try to build in a little time before leaving to hit the Yunk and The Goat's Beard. Though there are so many good choices in the area, this one is a never miss for me. TGB is more than just a cool name, it's an amazing combination of high quality food and drinks served by a top notch team, top to bottom. Friendly, engaging, no-nonsense...truly repping the Philly ethos. I started with the Italian Market Fries, a newer menu item that's worth getting...and big enough for 2-3 people. Tender pulled pork and shaved provolone over seasoned fries. Awesome! Being from Detroit, I'm picky about "Detroit style" pizza. Theirs is legit and the Philly cheesesteak version was fun. For my tastes, it needed more sauce which they happily supplied. Next time you're anywhere near the Yunk, don't miss The Goat's Beard! read more

Great service! We arrived early but they were able to accommodate us. We had a very professional and attentive server, the drinks and fries were just okay, but their salmon was dynamite. Burger was solid as well. It was a little crowded but they utilize the space well. read more

A group of us were in Philadelphia for the marathon and after a nice long run what we needed was a filling early dinner. We were staying in Manayunk so figured we'd give The Goat's Beard a shot to cover our array of dietary interests. I am a vegetarian so I gave their ramen a shot. It was kind of funny to see ramen on the menu of a place like this. It was sufficient and filling. They do not offer chopsticks what with the fact this is not actual ramen place and just a pub/restaurant. My friends felt good with their menu decisions and this is probably a really good spot for meat eaters. The ambiance is good (other than if it is an Eagles game day as it was, the entire city is bananas) and we could have a quality conversation. The Goat's Beard is a worthwhile spot. read more

I tried calling ahead to order a pizza and they refused to put the pizza order in. Told me I had to come to the restaurant to place the order and wait Whoever the manager was that I spoke to was unhelpful and frankly rude. I mean, what kind of restaurant doesn't allow call heads. read more

So glad I finally made it here - it wasn't high on my list of restaurants to visit because it's rare that I'm in this area how ever, I have seen and heard favorable reviews about this spot... and after my experience I'm so glad I finally made it! I made reservations online for a Sunday afternoon. When we arrived, it was during a period where the restaurant was only serving a select few items (I can't recall what specifically) so we waited until our waitress informed us that we could order from the extended menu... We ordered mostly apps and a salad... oh, and dessert, which was sinfully delightful! Everything was delicious - great balanced flavor, perfect temperature, and cooked to perfection! Our waitress was helpful, pleasant and the prices were reasonable! Drinks were great also! The atmosphere is cozy and laid back; and the music that played was good too! read more

This is a casual, laid back place for tasty food and cocktails. The atmosphere is definitely that of a neighborhood spot and it feels local and familiar, even if it is your first time (I've actually been here a couple of times!). My daughter ordered the salmon and it was actually really delicious. I ordered the pizza and I was very happy with my order. Our server was friendly and helpful. This is a good place if you happen to be in this area! I recommend! read more

Holy smokes, talk about amazing use of ingredients a the interesting mix of flavors. There must be a food laboratory in the kitchen. Kudos to the chef and those behind the wonderful menu choices. Our first time in Wayne and as part of our street walking experience is finding interesting food that makes us want to return. This restaurant establishment checked all the boxes for us and then some. Shout out to Rosa who led our experience this midday tour de food experience. We opened by sharing the pulled pork tacos and the seared scallops. Two immensely different dishes that delivered Wow factor flavor and food textures. Both platings were a work of art. Next we shared a small Smoke Show Pizza. That was a memorable pizza. Regatta mozzarella and cheddar special sauce, char pepperoni, Italian sausage, and basil with oregano and Parmesan. My wife enjoyed the Rata Savignon Blanc, and I had a dogfish head pumpkin . read more

I didn't know what to expect here. I ordered because I was looking for gluten free pizza. Their website indicates this might be Detroit style pizza which I've never had before, never have seen it either. But it had good reviews and I knew other local places with gf pizza aren't much good. It was rather small for the taste, but what it lacked in size, it sure made up for in flavor! Again, I've never had it before so I don't know if Detroit style pizza always has so little cheese, but the center of this pizza was all sauce, almost like how tomato pie looks. I had gotten a simple pepperoni pizza. It was rectangle and thick, similar to deep dish but different. While thick, it was lighter, very airy. I've had that texture once in Vegas and loved this almost as much, definitely prefer it to Chicago style deep dish. But the real star, was the flavor. Even the pieces that didn't have any cheese on it were sooooo good! Whatever they do to their crust and their sauce, I hope they never stop! This was last week when I ordered and it's the one food I've been thinking about since. The only thing holding me back is vacation next week. But when I get back, I know what dinner will be! read more

Stopped by The Goat's Beard for a solo meal and had a great experience. I sat outside at the sidewalk seating and felt totally comfortable dining alone. The pizza was incredible--simple, fresh, and full of flavor. I also had a salad, which balanced things out perfectly. The area is very walkable, but be warned that parking is limited. Inside, it's more of a bar vibe and can get pretty loud, but the service was attentive and friendly. Overall, a solid spot for good food and casual energy. read more

Obsessed with Goats Beard! I've gone to both this location and the one in Wayne. They have Detroit style pizza which is soooooo good! But the thing I also come for are the TGB nuggets which are like spicy popcorn chicken with chunks of blue cheese! Phenomenal! On top of all the great food their cocktails are delightful! read more

Cool place for a chill vibe on a weeknight. I went for happy hour the few times that I've gone. Service was pretty fast, the bartender was attentive and made my drinks just like I like em- STRONG.

Although it's a bit expensive, I do not think I've ever had gluten free pizza anywhere in the world as amazing as this place has it. I genuinely thought it was a mistake and that my friend and I received normal pizza until she tested it. Honestly. 10/10. You can slightly tell in the density of the dough but other than that...you can't tell at ALL. read more

Just came back from a show and was hungry decided to check out this restaurant as I was craving a burger. The service was pretty fast and the restaurant was very accommodating because we did not have a reservation. Overall the restaurant was clean and had a bit of a dark moody vibe. read more

Great place with good service. Love the Taylor Swift themed sangria (Lovin him was red). The sangria was also unique and complex in all the flavors offered. Banana bread pudding was really rich and dessert like. Husband enjoyed his breakfast wrap. Nice clean bathrooms. Plenty of seating with a bar too. They take reservations. read more

The atmosphere and drinks here were so good, I had the "friendly neighbor" which was so refreshing, my husband had the "mint to be" with mint sorbet, and it might have been my favorite. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and helpful wait staff. The food was a little underwhelming but overall we really enjoyed it! read more

I want to start out with I love the food here I've been 3 times now and this past weekend for the Philly bike ride. All three times I've had the steak and Mac and this weekend I must say I was quite disappointed my dish came out with 4 chicken nugget size pieces of steak and gnocchi in a creamy soup I was shocked that this is what came out in comparison to the 2 other times I came here I would like to think this was a one off issue and the next time I come to philly it's different. read more

Food, Service Ambiance was all great. We had the CheeseSteak egg rolls which were very good. The Pickle Pizza was great. But we also had the Krispy Brussels sprouts. I could have eaten two plates of those. They were outstanding. read more

I am sorry that I did not take pictures of my lunch. My husband and picked up my son and his fiancé, and drove to this neighborhood. We noticed that this restaurant had a table outside and the menu looked good. The excellent server seemed to be happy and got everything right with our order. We ordered the hush puppies, which were fair. I am picky about my hush puppies. Hush puppies are better in the southern states. I had the bread pudding French toast, and it was the most delicious French toast that I had ever tasted. My husband agreed with me. My husband had pork tacos. They had an outstanding favor, and were seasoned exceptionally. My future daughter-in-law had a biscuit sandwich with some fries. I tried the fries. The fries needed some extra salt. My son had an excellent-looking pizza, which was to die for. When we go back here, I am going to order French toast again, and perhaps a pizza to take home. The meal was fast to come out, despite all of the tables being filled outside. This was an outstanding day, seeing my son, his supportive fiancé, and an excellent restaurant we found! read more

The food here is absolutely amazing, I've been several times and haven't been disappointed yet.

Stopped in here prime time on a Friday night. They didn't have any open tables at the time but me and my husband were able to grab a seat at the bar. The bartender was super friendly; especially for a busy Friday night. We started with the TBG Nuggets as an app. They have a little kick but so good...they're a must order! I stepped outta my normal comfort zone and got the shrimp & grits for dinner. The grits were so good & cheesy. read more

One of our go to spots in Manayunk when friends/family visit or for a casual date night! We have been for both brunch and dinner and have also gotten taken out! All were just as good.

This was our second visit to this restaurant, but the first time to their location in Manayunk. We made reservations and were seated inside by the bar, which worked out as we were able to watch the Phillies game that was on. Our server was very friendly and attentive to us throughout our meal. Even when we were done, he said no rush and feel free to finish the game. We started with the cheesesteak egg rolls, which were just as delicious as the last time I remember. My wife and son got their usual Detroit style pizza, which again were just as good as last time. I went with the Caesar salad with grilled shrimp. The dressing had a pretty heavy anchovy taste, but it was fine for me. We passed on dessert as there wasn't really any gluten-free options for my wife. Aside from the disastrous Phillies game, it was a good meal! read more

I cannot believe how good the food at Goat's Beard. They are good for meat eaters and vegetarians alike.

I was here on a date. It was small but really cosy, good for a romantic date but also loud enough that it can be casual. I wouldn't recommend for groups as it's tightly seated. Service was timely, food was delicious and really well made. The steak mac and cheese was very heavy, so just keep that in mind. Dress code is casual, you can wear heels or a button down but I wouldn't wear my nice suit here. read more

Just visited again on a weekday night. The place was busy and noisy to the point where I thought we should get seated outside to spare our ears. Our server was great and checked on us consistently. We ordered 4 nonalcoholic mojitos, baked brie, smash burger, and a strawberry fennel salad. (Sadly, they don't serve the spinach and artichoke dip or Korean cauliflower anymore.) Mojitos were good, but the small glass was at least half ice. The baked brie and strawberry fennel salad complemented each other and can be shared, especially the brie. One thing I will note is the strawberry fennel salad description does not mention that its base is arugula, in case this is a dealbreaker for anyone. I'm not a huge fan of arugula, so this was a bit disappointing. On a related note, it tasted like it was vegan since it was just strawberries, tomatoes, arugula, sunflower seeds, fennel, and vinaigrette, but the menu didn't mark it as such (though it did have a gluten-free label). Considering the sparse vegan/vegetarian offerings, they should label the ones that don't have meat or dairy. I was surprised by the total on our check, which was just over $100 for a salad, appetizer, burger and fries, and four nonalcoholic mojitos. The salad and baked brie were decent but not memorable. The last time I visited was a year ago when their mojitos were $3.50 each. However, they've doubled the price to $7 each. At least half of each beverage was ice, so we essentially paid $3.50 for ice per glass. What warrants this steep increase? I noticed their alcoholic cocktails remained in the $11-13 range, so surely it's not the cost of ingredients. It must be to capitalize on the growing popularity of nonalcoholic options, which is unfortunate. This is no longer a great drink deal. Another thing to note: on the bottom of the menu they mention they add a 3% kitchen fee to each bill for their BoH staff. While this is some semblance of transparency, I hope they consider incorporating this into the menu prices instead, since they update the menus on a regular basis anyways. For now, I don't really see this place as worth visiting - great service aside. In comparison to other places in Manayunk, their pricing isn't terrible, but the food quality could be a bit better. read more
