Brian: "Very trendy/hip, but good enough coffee and food to back it up. A good alternative to Starbucks. Consistently better than many of the newer coffee shops that have popped up."
Bitches Who Brunch: "Sure it’s a little touristy, but you can’t beat paying just $14 (that’s like one cocktail by NYC standards) for 360 panorama views of the city. Go just before sunset for truly spectacular photos"
ben m: "I don't live in Philly, but this is easily one of my favorite bars in the world. Great list of whiskey, scotch and rye. Always there after dinner for a rye and cask ale."
Leslie Wetzel: "Great Sunday deals. Good place to hang out alone and read or ponder. Delicious beer and wine but the food stands out the most in my mind. My favorite place in Philly to get away . Pesto bruschetta ftw"
Philadelphia Magazine: "There are two or three rotating cask ales reliably on offer, and half a dozen taps pouring a similar mix of colder suds. Kudos to Starr for offering half-pints as well as $8-to-$9 Imperials."
CITY GRIT: "One of our favorite spots for oysters! Be a high roller and get the Raw Bar Sampler or hit them up at Happy Hour for $1 Oysters and cheap drinks! Don't miss the Snapper soup, a Philly Classic."
Jen D: "The clam chowder is the best I've tasted yet on the East Coast. The $1 oysters and $5 Kelly's punch is worth the Happy Hour crowd."
