Check out two weekday Happy Hours, one from 5:00-7:00 p.m. and another from 10:00 p.m.-12:00 midnight, with 50% off the entire bar menu (think slow-cooked short rib sliders and Amish chicken lollipops Read more
- Fodor's TravelAugust 22, 2018For dinner, you ascend a floating staircase to an upstairs dining room and settle into a plush banquette to sample deviled duck eggs, kale Caesar, and pea-and-carrot gnocchi scented with vanilla. Read more
Miguel LopezJanuary 27, 2017Amazing Bloody Mary. As for the food-- what they have is really well made, but the options themselves are limited, random, and probably not what you're craving.
Fixed price menu lunch deal. For $16.82 get soup or salad, pick main course, end with fresh baked-on-premises cookie for dessert! If you have to get back to work, they'll pack the cookie up to go.
Maureen OchiengFebruary 2, 2015Jason the waiter was very pleasant and very detailed with a smile. A little pricy if you ask but cannot complain, food amazingly good.- Get the $9 burger and beer lunch special. Burger comes with blue cheese, but you can switch cheeses if you want. Comes w/fingerling potato chips and you get to pick out of about four or so beers.
Square 1682 is great! Room service works well when you have to bring the kids to the Palomar!
The 1682 prix fixe lunch offers a three-course for $16.82. Chef Tellez’s very popular Vegetable Lasagna as one of the entrees from which to choose.
Philadelphia MagazineJanuary 3, 2012If you're in the mood to feel fancy, this hotel bar sometimes offers specials that are irresistible: hot toddies on a freezing January day, champagne cocktails in the middle of February.
Bar AIDS PhillyAugust 9, 2012Grab a drink at Square 1682 during Philly's 3rd Annual Bar AIDS on Thursday, September 27. A portion of your coffees and cocktails all day long benefits 4 local AIDS service organizations. Cheers! Read more
Glen JacksonJuly 4, 2014One of the best cocktail menus I've come across. Varied, comprehensive, and all around money.
- Philadelphia MagazineSeptember 14, 2011Guillermo Tellez makes use of his worldly palette to deliver you a refreshingly focussed menu worthy of our 2011 list of Best Restaurants of Philadelphia! Read more
- Lori HamiltonJune 28, 2014Please try the truffle popcorn and bacon wrapped dates! You won't be disappointed.
Lani MorenoMarch 7, 2010Get the roasted dates wrapped in bacon, the cheese plate and the meatballs. The cheese plate was my favorite! Skip the skewers, the shrimp was undercooked, sent back and returned exactly the same, u
Sumptuous burgers, lively happy hour (try the bacon-wrapped dates).- If you have limited time at lunch, this may not be the place to go. Food can sometimes take awhile. But if you have the time, the food is worth the wait.
Brent NichollsMay 4, 2012Out of all the meal times here dinner is by far the best and relatively affordable...
BYOD (bring your own dog) Brunch every Saturday! $4 bowls for your pup, bottomless mimosas for you!

Erica CarterAugust 31, 2014We went in today specifically for the punch brunch, but were told they no longer serve that.
Chefs FeedAugust 5, 2014Monica Glass, chef of Clio (Boston), eats here on her nights off. She loves the Bacon-wrapped dates. Read more
Leanne AlyssaNovember 21, 2014The truffle popcorn is pretty good. Pretty decent vegetarian options but the portions are small for the price
- Try the Winter Smash: Bulleit Bourbon, port, mint, maple syrup and Angostura Bitters.
Lee JacobsJanuary 12, 2010Best burger in the city. Blows Rouge, Good Dog, and Butcher and Singer away. No joke. Only served at lunch
