A solid sports bar or hang out place in Manayunk.  3 floors, good beer specials, and usually a good crowd make this a reliably fun spot.

They also have good bar-food type apps... if you're hungry try their pizza.  These "personal" pizzas are on a thick yummy crust and about the size of my backyard!

Be warned though - there are TWO steps at the bottom of the stairs leading to the bathroom, and there is probably a line for the bathroom behind you that you can't see when you come down the stairs.  So don't do what I did: trip over the second step in front of everyone, try to escape embarassed into the bathroom, then be told that there is a 3-deep line for the bathroom that you are attempting to cut.  Because then you have to stand there in line for 10 minutes with everyone pretending to watch the game while your face turns tomato-red.  NOT my most shining moment.

I was at the bar on Sunday night. $5 burger and $2.50 beer. Hard to beat combo for dinner. Had to find the bar tender to take my initial order, Everything was pretty smooth after that, and the bar tender was pretty good at marketting his joint.

i haven't been to this bar since it was the cotton club some 10+ years ago. it was a small then and still fairly small now but the new design seems to be more open. i went to meet up with a friend for a drink and they had a 2 for 1 happy hour. not to shabby. so i bought one dos equis and POW...got a 2nd for free. there were also some very cute woman present so that is always a star in it self.
