In Short
Sure, the Dodger gets crowded with beer-swilling 20-somethings when the Flyers or Eagles are on, but the place remains friendly and loose, with wilder (bar) and calmer (dining) sides, accommodating both partiers and families. Better-than-average beers pour from the bar's tap: Yards, John Courage, Bass. The menu strikes a decent balance betwen finger food and heftier grub. Dive in to a gooey, belly-busting plate of potato nachos or a juicy pub burger.

We loved it! Ate here with our 3 kids over 4th of July week. The food was surprisingly fabulous. My salad was perfection, as well as the traditonal fare. Our kids were welcome & the waitress was helpful. The dining are is charming. George Washington once ate here--which was exciting for our children. We appreciated a nice restaurant welcoming our whole family!

This is a great little pub. Completely free of pretense. The food is really good and a great value. The portions are big, bring your appetite. "Meatloaf Monday" and "Beef and Beer Thursday" offer great meals with a beer for $12 or less. Eight taps feature old European favs (Guinness, Carlsburg, Newcastle) and tasty locals (Yards, Flying Fish) in 20 oz. pints. Great place to watch the game, or meet some friends.

For about $10 including tip I had a great dinner here. The atmosphere is pretty cool, the booths are great for small groups. A salad with walnuts and apples was huge and well worth the low price. The chicken parm sandwich was worth going back for a second time.
