Top Irish Pubs in Philadelphia

Philly is much more than cheese steak. It is home to some of the finest restaurants in the country and the ones here, from Philadelphia and the surrounding area, are well worth the visit. If you have never experienced true Irish cooking, what are you waiting for? With Irish Pubs like these in the Philadelphia area, there is no excuse, so pick out one, go and have a good time and good food and make a new friend or two, or three.

The prices listed are from the dinner menu as that is usually the most expensive, so if you go for lunch, you might be paying less. They are entrees only unless it says otherwise. Appetizers, soups, deserts, drinks will be extra, unless it says otherwise, but you should be able to get a good idea of what a meal will cost by comparing the entree prices. The prices are in effect as this is written, but they are subject to change at any time. And the restaurants all have menus, so you will be able to get a sneak peak. Go on, have a good time, you deserve it.
