Best Fish 'n Chips in town.

by EatWellSatori

The chips... were de-lish. Crispy on the outside,

and melty soft on the inside.

The fish was excellent too... closest thing to the local London Chippy!

The side/dip sauce... could have a tad more fiest to it!

But all in all... the Fish 'n chips... were excellent!

Downside... there was only one bottle of vinegar in the 2 floors of service area, and my chips had cooled off by the time the our waiting mate could locate it.

Make sure you have them get the malt vinegar and worcestershire sauce upfront... before the food arrives... if you like your chips that way.

Beers were great... Frambois on tap... yum!

Cheers!

• Pros: Really good ... Chips!

What Happened to Eulogy????

by Jennifer1979Philly

I'd thought I just share my email that I sent to the owner today....

On Friday, I had a reservation for the Coffin room for approx 25 people. My fiance and I have always loved Eulogy and frequented often over the past 2 years, however, our service was absolutely horrible on Friday. I informed you of the need for approx 10 pitchers of Stella and lots of fries. When the birthday boy and I arrived our guests were receiving their own drinks. BUT it took us 25 minutes to get a drink and to place any type of order with Martin. Martin was constantly busy and we wouldn't see him for long periods of time.

The room was very hot and when some of our guests said something to Martin they were told it's because the room is above the kitchen. We had 5 people leave because of the heat . It wasn't until one of the guests noticed there was an a/c unit and asked Martin if it could be turned on. His response "All you had to do was ask". Are you kidding me?

When I asked for the 10 pitchers, I was told there was only 5 available. When he brought them out, there were NO glasses. I was told they were all out. The pitchers sat there for at least 25 minutes before we got approx 10 glasses. That's hardly enough for everyone.

The only thing that we received quickly were the fries and the bill. Between not receiving a call back or an email when I repeatedly contacted you and your bar and with the horrible service, I was pretty disheartened. We loved Eulogy, but will not be rushing to come back anytime soon after Friday night. It really made a potential fun night very stressful for me.

I am sorry to send you this email, but you need to know about your servers and the type of service your guests are receiving. As an owner of an establishment, it should be in your best interest to serve your customers in the best manner possible, which clearly the 25- 30 people I had there on Friday didn't receive.

• Pros: Great Beer Selection, downstairs Bartenders know their beer
• Cons: Horrible service to groups, do not have enough servers for upstairs

Best bar in town

by DrJosh

If you havent been to Eulogy you are missing a fantastic piece of Philadelphia. The food is excellent, the service is immediate and the beer list speaks for itself. I am a regular at Eulogy and will continue to be a regular. I am a big fan of trying different beers and really learning about the beer at the same time...this place is perfect for that. There are many things on the menu that are "must tries"...fries, mussels, hanger sandwich, cheese plate...and of course all the beer. The buffalo wings arent the best Ive had, but thats about the only thing I can think to say negative about this place. The bartenders here are the most knowledgeable I have ever met. They can make dozens of recommendations, tell you about the brewing of the particular ale, tell you about the history of the beer and even tell you the best temperature to drink it. It makes visiting Eulogy more than just a night at a bar...its more like a history lesson, museum and party wrapped into one. Sophisticated or sloppy drunk I love this place.

• Pros: Beer list, bartenders
• Cons: nothing

Great Beer!

by lishartnell

I am a huge lover of beers, Belgian first...they always have an amazing selection on tap and of course, the bottles as well.- Great service always, great advice from the bartenders, and great treats for after you might have one too many extra- alcoholic beers (some are upwards of 11%- beware, seen people with their head on the countertop after one!) Love the clams with greyure and must try the french fries with the unique dipping sauce...!

Extensive beer selection, knowledegable staff

by rf

Eulogy has a fantastic selection of Belgian ales my waiter was very knowledgeable when asked for details on the more obscure selections. The bar itself is fairly typical for a shotgun space. Though they claim their burger has been rated the Best in Philly, I thought it was average. Their frijtes, however, are excellent and their moules biere were very good. All in all a nice, casual hangout.

• Pros: Large ale selection, great frijtes
• Cons: dark, limited seating downstairs

Most unprofessional staff I have ever experienced.

by ham168

This place has the most unprofessional staff I have ever experienced in my entire life which is a shame because the beer list was very impressive. I will never be returning to this establishment. The sister bar, Beneluxx has a great staff however. Very friendly and educated.

• Pros: Great Beer List
• Cons: Incredibly horrible staff

Fun and Funky. Big Beer Selection.

by cougaboutown

Outside of the Pacific Northwest and New England it's not always easy to find a bar with a wide range of beers, especially something other than lagers and microbrews that are basically lagers in disguise. While Euglogy has a fair number of the latter, they do have enough variety to quench the thirst of those looking for a true IPA or a real stout. The food is just ok and I disagree with the other reviewers about how good it is. In short, a fun, but dark, hole-in-the-wall place with great beer. Our wait staff was friendly and prompt.

GREAT ATMOSPHERE & BEER SELECTION

by JAY345

A great place to enjoy Belgian beer in an authentic atmosphere. Great bar food too. The week ends get pretty crazy, better to go on week nights

Stay downstairs!

by BigWill13

Their beer selection is fantastic. There are so many import and domestic choices, you will not be disapointed. However, the upstairs bartender seems to forget, very often, that he is in the service industry. We know that he has his own "regulars," but that is no excuse to be rude to or ignore other customers. I highly suggest you visit Eulogy, but I highly suggest that you stay downstairs. You'll find the staff much more pleasant and accomodating.
