New Olympia House - Review - Northeast Philly - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"There are only a few places where you can get a drink at 6:30am: your kitchen, PHL, or on a stool at New Olympia House in the Northeast. That’s the prime time to complain about your love life to a margarita-making server before the 7am rush. The scene here is chaotically charming—beer-fueled commentary on the local news playing on TVs, kids using spoons as drumsticks, and regulars saying, “get the fu*k outta here,” while rejecting a menu they’ve already memorized. Bring a group of friends and pass around thick crab cake sandwiches and crispy golden fries. Or come back in the morning and update your waitress on last night’s date over two shots of whiskey. Here, that makes complete sense. photo credit: NICOLE GUGLIELMO" - Candis R. McLean
