NEVER AGAIN. I've been to this bar a thousand times and never had a problem until------------. My boyfriend and I were there on a Sunday afternoon and were treated so badly by the girl bartender that we would never go there again. We were regulars or so we thought until this girl started cursing at us and treating us like South St. tourists. With the economy being as bad as it is, Can this place really afford to lose business over something as simple as manners or lack there of? I hope the owner reads this and demotes this piece of white trash to something more appropriate like dishwasher. Sorry Mom's you lost a longtime customer.

Drinkers BEWARE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I totally agree with the overhype, listen, i look as you would call more "scene" than any but my personality is the difference and of course im looking for a place where i can relax and enjoy some of my own tunes and great prices. but this isnt it. The best relaxed place is the upstairs punk atmosphere, and only because the bumper car setting and smoking. Yeah PBR is cheap but not EVERYONE DRINKS SHI*TY BEER!!! The bartenders were no where to be found, I HAD TO GO ON A HUNT TO GET A DAMN DRINK, THEN THE BOUNCER EYE F*CKING ME AT THE DOOR BEFORE AND AFTER. The point is.....OVER FU*KING RATED. Oh and if your looking to meet barely dressed tattooed h**kers, so guys theres a plus...everyone else KEEP YOUR CHANGE!!!

Never kicked me out, even when they should have. we like to get loud. fortunately we like to invite everyone around us to join in the mayhem. The bouncees usually shake their heads at us or share the laugh. Tmoms has even accomodated us via Twitter, buying us rounds and greeting us when we get there.

pricey?. Apparently some of the people that wrote past reviews have never had T-Moms 1 dollar PBR pounder. Yes, ONE DOLLAR PBR pounders! The catch is that it's limited to before 11pm. But it only goes up to like 2 or 3 bucks after 11.

T-Moms is a great place to pregame (taking advantage of the cheap pounders) before you go out somewhere else.

It's a fun bar and near a lot of other bars to head out to after the beer goes up in price. A great night out is to bike to T-Moms, drink until 11 and then bike to the Barbary along Delaware (it has a nice bike lane) to finish up there.

The atmosphere without the attitude. This is, without a doubt, the best bar on South Street. You get the punk dive atmosphere without the stereotypical typical punk dive attitude. Forget what the previous reviewer "sicksicksick" said. I'm from Jersey and have been going to Tattooed Mom for years. I've never had a problem, I've never been harrassed and I've never caught attitude. Ever. I've gone in short sleeves with my tattoos showing, and I've gone in looking like your average joe...and have been treated exactly the same...very well by the staff.

You can be social in Tattooed Mom...you just have to know your atmosphere. You can't expect everyone to be DYING to talk to you...but if you politely add something to an open conversation...you'll find you'll fit in as long as you're up on your bar etiquette. The locals & regulars get first glance as far as service...as well it should be. However, no matter how crowded it's been...I've never gone an unreasonable amount of time without being taken care of.

The food is good and they have vegetarian-friendly options. I usually go with the veggie-burger and it's always tasty. In my opinion, both the food & drinks are very reasonably priced, though I only drink beer when I'm here...so I don't know what they charge for liquor.

For the uninitiated...if you go to Tattooed Mom, be yourself...don't pretend to be something you aren't...and don't expect people to either love or hate you based on whether or no you're part of their "scene". Just go there to have a few drinks, eat some good food and enjoy a killer jukebox...and you'll have a good time.
