Editorial Review for Aspen – by Lauren McCutcheon
The Scene
The ambiance is relaxed, with a brick-walled pub and petite dining room. Windows trimmed in white lights create a romantic feel, offset by mismatched paintings and TV sets tuned to sports. The menu offers American cuisine, from wings to steaks. A creative choice would be the salad and pork tenderloin stuffed with goat cheese is a solid choice, but the staples are best: you can't go wrong with a burger and fries.

I love this place and its staff. The food is great from the appetizers to the full entrees. Great place to go and have a late bite - they serve food until 1 a.m. every night. Love to sit at the bar and have a few beers or a cocktail ( the beer list is solid... not Monk's, but far better than average). The burger is the best in Fairmount, by far. I don't care what Philly Magazine says. And to respond to the review that said the service was snooty and sarcastic - I love the bartenders at Aspen, and if the bartender was sarcastic or "snooty" to you... you probably did something to deserve it. Rob's a good bartender and a pretty nice guy from what I've seen. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxed bar atmoshere to enjoy a nice meal and some good conversation.
Pros: Great beer list. Good Food. Open Late
Cons: Parking.

This place is fantastic, from happy hour to the wee hours, Aspen is everything a neighborhood could ask for. The service, both behind the bar and at the tables, is always quality and usually carries a polite greeting and smile. Great food, great beer list and an average wine list are sure to provide most people needs. If you haven't tried it, you should.
