Philadelphia is lucky to have the best BBQ in NYC no longer a 2hr drive away. Get brisket , pulled pork , and a gallon jug of beer .
Inside or outside seating . I like that you can order how much or little as you like. It allows you to try a variety of the meats and sides. There's also a bar if you want some alcoholic beverages
Everything: happy hour (1/2 off all beer sizes, $4 smoked drumsticks and burnt end sandwiches , $5 old fashioned and Manhattans ), the meats, the stunning bourbon and whiskey selections ...great place.
I discovered this place in Brooklyn, NY and love that there's a location in Philly. The prices are on the higher side, but the food is excellent. I highly recommend the chicken .
Killer meats. You can't go wrong with pulled pork , burnt ends , or brisket . Great happy hour specials too. All-around awesome vibe.
Best BBQ in Philly. Half pound of pulled pork will get you right. Ask for an extra roll to go with it. Great happy hour with $5 old fashions.
Philly waited with baited breath for our very own Fette Sau to open, and it's here now to satiate all of your BBQ needs. The lines are already long, but they're worth it. [Eater 38 Member]
Fishtown Ryatt & Palmer Park drinks are awesome! Such a cool & unique atmosphere here. The bartender is so knowledgable and friendly . We will be back for sure!
I live 5 mins. from the original Bklyn joint and traveling the 2 hrs to get to the Philly is worth it to avoid the crazy lines in Bklyn!
Delicious meat. I went through a half pound really quickly, so a quarter pound wouldn't have been nearly enough. Reasonable prices. $.75 Utz chips . I'll have to try whiskey flight sometime.
Excellent whiskey and rye selection and knowledgable bar crew. Regret not trying the food. Next time I will !!
Ive only sampled brisket passing through...and it was so good. I need to go back. The place has an awesome NOLA vibe.
What you see is what you get. Are the brisket slices coming off the glistening fatty end? Take half a pound. Otherwise, a quarter. Does the pork belly look lean? Match your order to your druthers. Read more
Finger-licking good food! Seating outside is wonderful, especially on a nice night. And the music makes it fun. Highly recommend!
One word. Bangin' - describes everything about this place. Fantastic atmosphere and menu choices. I'll be back soon.
Best barbecue in Philly, hands down! Very friendly staff . All around great place to eat and hang out.
So, I was told by a local that the pulled pork was great, and although it did not disappoint, the blue ribbon goes to the BBQ chicken . Memorably juicy.
Great atmosphere. We loved how they serve their food family style . Unfortunately their BBQ sauces are lacking in flavor.
The pork belly is the best thing here. Pair it with a whiskey (great selection, btw) and you've got yourself a great meal.
The porch is where it's at. Grab a drink and pretend this is your little slice of heaven.
Hot Toddy is awful - burnt ends and slaw are great. Spectacular bourbon selection and great happy hour Old Fashioned cocktails .
The meat and service is excellent! However I didn't like potatoe salad , beans and broccoli . Besides that I would definitely come back for the meat.
Every was great, must try the brisket and mac n cheese !
Insane BBQ ! Brisket & Pork to change your life.
The burnt end sandwich during happy hour is awesome! Try the cole slaw , too; its tangy and spicy
Mason jars . BBQ is fine. Seems to be getting better. Half pints let you try more beers and save $
If they have pork belly , get it. Chicken is the best thing on the menu. Ribs and brisket are decent; don't bother with anything else.
Beef Short Ribs , only available on weekends, but worth every penny. Come hungry.
Amazing for large group dinners . Great staff , excellent service, solid food.
All the meat is delicious, especially the short rib . Try the Fishtown Ryatt cocktail if you like whiskey .
Be careful about the weight of the beef ribs . It can get expensive . Hands down best BBQ I've ever had and worth the price.
The baked beans are the best ever. And they have cheerwine! Be still my southern heart.
I'm about to find out but I can say it sure looks good. Staff is very friendly and helpful
Great pulled pork and short ribs !
Ordered pork by the pound to-go, and it was just as good the next day at home.
Great cocktails and romantic atmosphere on a Friday night!
Get the Cheer Wine , it's the original Dr. Pepper . Washes down the melt-in-your-mouth brisket nicely.
Pulled pork is amazing! Sauerkraut was super fresh! And get the salted caramel !
As much meat as you want and no obligation to get side dishes.
$5 Manhattans and Old Fashioneds for Happy Hour ? Put me down for a half dozen.
All beers are half off at happy hour , including growlers .
Great pulled pork . Solid beer selection . Mac and cheese is just okay.
You can order by the quarter pound so try a ton of the goodies while you are here.
Great happy hour and fantastic meats.
The brisket rules. Get big cuts for a prime rib experience!
Short ribs are a winner. Make sure to squirt the vinegar sauce on your pulled pork .
I love the way the gummy char sticks to my teeth!
BBQ for hipsters . Take in the atmosphere, it's sensational. The BBQ is ok but you're not really here for that.
Happy hour from 5-7
Food is amazing! Great scene too
I was never brave enough to try re fried cactus and sweet potato burrito until recently (I was happy getting the awesome veggie wings). BOY was I missing out! So delish. - Theresa Velykis
Unbelievable bbq...all sides are home made and delish...mac n cheese and baked beans are amazing... - Ryan Smith
The brisket, ribs, sausage and Italian Mac n' Cheese were fantastic! - Jim Henderson
Great atmosphere! Staff are friendly. Menu could be expanded to include more items! But overall it's a nice place to meet friends and have a good time! - Doris R.
The only place to play some of the best old school arcade games. One of my go to stops when I'm visiting. - Greg Reese
We've been here a couple times to catch dinner and a show and have been happy with the experience each time! Shrimp and grits were very tasty & the upstairs venue space is intimate and inviting. - Sara Moreno
