What People Are Saying About 1601

In Short
Once upon time in South Philly immigrants flocked her from Italy and Eastern Europe. Today, refugees from Center City come seeking affordable digs and bumped up square footage. Enter 1601, a hip and modern space that feels more like Northern Liberties than points south. Come for the post-modern bar menu (Moroccan Burrito anyone?), sophisticated beer list (Troegs, Flying Fish, Dog Fish Head) and well-considered, affordable wines. Great tunes, a convivial vibe and friendly staffers add to the mix.

Nice selection of well prepared meals. The meal itself was served in good time, but additions to the original order were far too slow. I was charged more than what I signed for on my card. Was in a group of three and I charged my portion of the tab, including tip. It seems that a gratuity was added even though the waitress received over twenty percent on the entire ticket. We'll see what the manager says about this.

My first experience with "1601" was Saturday, December 9, 2006 when manager Dave and his staff hosted the East Passyunk Avenue (EPX) Civic Association after its 10th Street cleanup event - fellow EPX-ers swept and polished 10th Street from Tasker to Snyder. Dave greeted us EPX-ers and happily posed for photos with our group. We were tired, dirty and cold, and Dave provided us with a place to rest, relax, nosh on bagels and schmeer, and chat with our fellow South Philly neighbors. Some stayed for lunch, including myself and was I glad I did. I order the butternut squash risotto and it was fabulous! Please check out "1601" -- fun and friendly, neighborhood bar/restaurant!

i went to this place for the first time last weekend and wondered how i've gone this long without it...the food was amazing and way affordable.(unlike a certain new neighborhood spot i had been frequenting)...the staff was young and layed back without being neglectful of the customers. the beer selection was great, the music was good and they have a 42' plasma tv....i found a new favorite bar
