Cheap hot sasuages, dogs, beer , shots, and nice selection of imported beer . I like the surly staff and Arkanoid table top video game .

Visit Philly

There's an awesome old-school Ms. Pac-Man table, plus a pool table on the second floor bar called Top’s. There’s also photohunt, a videogame that caters to a, er, more adult clientele.

G Philly From Philadelphia Magazine

As one of Philly's best loved dive bars (they still allow smoking) it's also one of the LGBT-friendliest. Plus, you can get a beer for less than two bucks.

Philadelphia Magazine

The wait staff isn't exactly friendly , the place is filled with smoke, the beers are cheap and those are precisely the good old fashioned , authentic qualities we want and expect from a dive bar . Read more

Philadelphia Magazine

The waitstaff here is surly as hell, and it doesn’t hurt that you can smoke inside, because it makes the place feel like an actual bar rather than some fake, politically correct appletini theme park .

Campbell Bird

Smokey dive bar . There's more room and less smoke in the upstairs section next door.

Yeungling Porter on tap . Cheapest draft beer in Center City
