What People Are Saying About Tattooed Mom's

In Short – One of the few South Street bars that deserves more than the occasional pub crawl pop-in, Tattooed Mom has been able to forge a sturdy identity of its own in an otherwise flavor-of-the-moment atmosphere. Attitude can be heavy when stools and tables are at a premium. Leather jackets, slicked-back hair, hot-rod rockers and, of course, tattoos are in abundance most of the time. A well-stocked jukebox (heavy on the rock 'n roll) keeps the place lively.

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!!!
- Pros: Smoking allowed and Music
- Cons: BARTENDERS, PRICES, AND BOUNCERS!!

Never kicked me out, even when they should have
by CSMobileUser at Citysearch
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?
by Kcphila at Citysearch
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.
- Pros: dollar pounders!
- Cons: the deal ends at 11pm.
The Details on Tattooed Mom's
Where to Sit:
Traffic from South Street usually keeps the downstairs bar crowded. Upstairs there's another, more private, bar, along with pool and a few barber's chairs that provide a kick for first-timers.
The Extras:
There are a few types of Yuengling on tap in addition to the standards, and a cider. Mom seems to be having a little battle with Copabanana for the finest Spanish fries on the street. Her choice of waffle-cut potatoes lets her eke out a victory.
