Food & Wine Best Burgers in Philly: South Philly bar w/solid beers & food. Happy hour is awesome - saddle up with a beer and burger (grass-fed beef patty, smoked cheddar & pickled veggies)

Came to try the habanero sculpin & wanted something to go along with it. My (burnt) fried pbj did not hit the spot. I'll stick with oysters or tacos next time!

The best grilled cheese in Philly, and amazing fried chicken. Head here for a great brunch and one of the best taplists in the city, too. [Eater 38 Member]

The embodiment of gentrification in South Philly and the 2003 birthplace of the "Newbold" neighborhood in the city — toast with the Newbold IPA! Great atmosphere, food, and brews — and free WiFi!

Brunch is amazing ! The breakfast burger is all you need to be filled up. Comes with fries & this great homemade ketchup. Waiters are very helpful and kind. It has a nice homey feel to it.

Food, service, atmosphere, and beer was amazing. Nice bar scene but not too noisy. Good music as well. I'll definitely be back.

I had what I thought was one of the best cheeseburgers in the area. Great beers list staff was pleasant too. I will return.

Apparently, it's a challenge to get drinks late-night in Philly, and for us New Yorkers who were grieving the loss of a friend, this place was sorely needed. Great staff and service, we thank you!

great variety of beers at the bar, but definitely more of a restaurant; Not accommodating for a group of more than 5 looking for a bar. Oh, and we were charged for the same tab THREE times!

Try Brasserie Dupont's Foret – a peppery, citrusy, earthy, irrepressibly frothy Belgian brew that goes great with a warm, breezy day. Read more

Mostly local beers, but their good local beers. Their food is great too, very original, and some creative vegetarian options (not many though). All in all a good place to check out. Good local beer!
