These dope self pour vibes come from the really cool new kids on the block @tapsterphilly . This really don’t establishment is something to experience. I have never been to a South poor bar ever in my life. They give you cards that you have to scan that will allow you to either try the beer or drink of your choice. They even sell self serve cocktails, wine, and espresso drinks! It’s very spacious and has a lot of room. This would be a great place to watch any sports event on their multiple TVs throughout the establishment. They even have table games and swings so that you and your friends can really embrace the experience. They also have four bathrooms that represent each Philadelphia sports team with each Teams rivalry labeled inside of the toilet I thought this was absolutely amazing and yet quite funny. Go Birds! . If you ever want a dog place to watch the game and get out of the neighborhood and meet new people, please check out @tapsterphilly and have a blast and tell’em shimmy sent you!!! #drinks #beer #sports #yelp #yelpphilly #vibes #fun #swing #water #friends #philly #philadelphia #food #foodie #foodblogger #foodphotography
I walked pass this place 100 times and always wanted to go in. I spoke with Jenna on Monday when I stopped in, and went back for Trivia Tuesday. I then met Gabby! Both we very nice women with great customer service skills. Peter, who also works there made my experience great. Going to a place tapping a key card and filling your glass with Beer, Wine, or Cider is AMAZING And we played Uno. I highly recommend this new place in Center City!!!
this place is great- so many options to choose from for drinks so if someone doesn’t like beer (or even alcohol) there’s an option. mixed drinks on tap - ummm, yes! the IG-able neon signs and the stickers in the toilet bowl of non philly teams - genius move! positive messages on the walls and (drum roll please) swings instead of chairs to sit around the table - let’s go! live plants really tied it all together for a great vibe. staff was very friendly too! come to boston!
Honestly!!!!! WHAT!! I've never been to a self-pour taproom so this was an amazing introduction. You check in and connect your card and then the rest is history. They have beer, wine, cocktails, mocktails, soda, and coffee on the tap. I mean who can resist Spressy Tini on TAP?! You tap your card and pour what you like and it tells you how much it was. It was cost effective too. We spent 30 bucks and had 8 drinks that consisted of beer, a margarita, and an espresso martini. They also have some snacks, basic food choices, and games to play with your group. They also have TVs to watch sports and such. They have these cool swing seats but be careful...there was a causality...LOL... Overall, such a COOL SPOT.
Such a cool place to check out! You have access to over 50 taps to pour your own drinks. They have a variety of beers, cocktails and other beverages to choose from. Plus they have swing seating, super fun!
Where to even begin? The beer selection here is amazing? I think the coolest part is you can pour by the ounce, so you don’t have to have a full beer. There’s also cocktails on tap made in house which are top notch. A fun photo booth, swings to just chill, you can definitely get some work done here if needed too! Stadium seating and plenty of TVs. The music is always on point in there also! Roman gave Philly just what Philly needed! Ps Peter and Jenna are amazing staff members as well! Check out the local graffiti artwork in there as well! Place is so sick!!! 2.88 Rolling Rock’s!
The check came out cheaper than I expected, although I tried about 6 different beers, ciders and hard kombucha. And it was a lot of fun tapping the card they gave you while you were pouring from the tap. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
This bar is so much fun! You get a card as you walk in and then it’s serve yourself. The atmosphere is so fun and there is a ton of fun and different seating. There are some snacks (def recommend the Buffalo chicken rolls) but it’s convenient and encouraged to bring takeout. Lots of different drinks and everything was nice and clean. Definitely recommend.
