Awesome late night menu (happens to be the full menu), food is amazing. No wonder since the chef came from Mercato! Too bad the servers don't follow suit :-/

Cory

Expensive drinks but worth every penny for the live entertainment, which is great fun. Fun but small dance floor upstairs. This is also the oldest gay bar in Philly.

G Philly From Philadelphia Magazine

Three levels of fun here. Great dining downstairs and dancing on the second floor. But our favorite spot is the piano bar where everyone belts out showtunes seven days a week.

Rachel Shifman

beautiful, historic, and intimate place to have a quiet drink on weekdays or a loud , fun drink on weekends!

Clementine Mottola

Beautiful piano . The singers last night sounded like angels! Great little dance floor on the second floor as well . Nice chill atmosphere here!

Abby K

you have to get the grilled cheese & tomato soup . you will not be sorry! beyond amazing.

Dennis B

Skip the beer and order a mixed drink to get your money's worth. "Mixed" here is used lightly. A vodka+cran is vodka on the rocks with a splash of color!

Rob McGowan

Fun piano bar with a downstairs restaurant and upstairs dance floor in the Gayborhood .

Maurice Ross

Wonderful piano bar with great pianists and friendly staff

Brian Masefield

Either you like piano bars or you don't. The place feels like it could use a good scrubbing.
