Vivek VenkatramJune 30, 2017Ping-Pong by the fire pits with a liter of beer is a popular pastime at Stephen Starr's enormous but chill indoor-outdoor German biergarten in Fishtown, where the crowd drinks out of steins.
Y MillerMarch 22, 2017This place is so cool,it reminds me of an adult playground.It is an outside setting and at nighttime they have lights hanging from the top. Slim selection of finger food, but have various of games
Dan JonesAugust 21, 2014Vegan burgers and sausage? I seriously wasn't expecting that. Really really great German food and an electric atmosphere. I hope to come again soon! Get a Jenga game at the front. Absurdity ensues.
Joe CApril 20, 2015Amazing beers for the value. A liter of grapefruit Hefeweizen for $14? Total steal. Add in the outdoor seating, games and pretzels..this place rocks
Sophia HJuly 14, 2015Awesome cool place. Ping pong, jenga, cards against humanity, and a bunch of other games. Got Schofferhofer grapefruit hefeweizen - so sweet and fruity and delicious!- DavidJanuary 13, 2016Great spot even in cooler winter months. Fire bowls and heat lamps in the outdoor area plus ping pong to keep you warm!
Kyle ByeOctober 15, 2015Stunning open-air German biergarten with a modern twist. Lots of seating, free Wifi, and even 2 ping pong tables - this place has it all!
Amazing customer service! They made a mistake with my order and hooked me up complimentary! Then they brought our table an umbrella bc it started to drizzle. TLC makes the difference. Love this place!
Eric ShineFebruary 17, 2019Fun place to hang out with friends, grab a beer, eat some snacks. Very good beer menu, but also $10-15 drink prices.

NathanJuly 10, 2018Perfect open-air beer garden for the summer. Drink selection is extensive and the food isn't half bad either.
RCJune 20, 2015Happy hour deals are awesome. Great food and beer in an indoor/outdoor setting. Get a pretzel!

Ricardo SeixasOctober 25, 2015Cool bar and beer garden with also a outdoor patio that works has a food court for some German sausages!
NatalieNovember 21, 2017Great beer, prices and atmosphere. It gets busy so get there at a time to grab a seat.
Angelique D.December 8, 2018The roasted pork shank is everything. Everything we had was awesome, but that was just mind-blowing.
Liter beers, roasting fires, ping pong, jenga, and great food! Simply put one of the best bars in fishtown, maybe even all of Philly
Demi FerkerJanuary 8, 2016Definitely the pretzels! Also, not the biggest fan of beer, but the few grapefruit infused drinks are fantastic.
Jake SmithDecember 10, 2011Even in winter, this place is an awesome place to drink. The heat lamps will make you totally forget that it is the middle of December, if the liters of beer don't first.
Liz McBrideOctober 22, 2013The Yards Frankford Pale Ale is amazing. The bartenders as well. Thank you for making what would've been a shitty night a great one.
