I was meeting a friend at Geri's Old Philadelphia (next door) and had a 1/2 hour to kill since I got there early....so, I wandered in this joint to have a couple of Beers while I burned some time.
The place is really, really dark. It took my eyes a few minutes to adjust to the darkness. After I got my bearings, I saddled up to the bar and asked the bartender what they had on tap. He said they had no domestics on tap and mumbled off a short list....all I remember hearing was Alaskan Ale, so I said let's go for that. Wait, isn't that domestic? Ha, ok....
He brought me a pint and I sat back and watched Sports Center while a handful of guys played Video Poker at the bar. They serve food here as I saw a patron get a Burger & Fries.....the weird thing is that they allow smoking at the Bar...hmmm, you're not suppose to be able to eat and smoke in the same place. They must not care about getting fined. Whatever....the place smells like a smoker's den, so I guess it attracts smokers. I don't think the regulars care.
The bartender was friendly but quiet....not much of a talker.
I had my 2 Beers and left to meet my buddy for lunch @ Geri's.
Will I return? Probably not...this was a one-hitter quitter, not really my style of bar.
