Bar Hygge

"Pronounced “Hoo-guh,” Bar Hygge lives up to its name with a cozy setting, alongside a lineup of excellent beers and a focused kitchen (confusingly, not Danish). Expect curiosities on tap such as a “sourdough” beer with rye, a lemon meringue IPA, and a banana-walnut stout." - Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme

"For every neighborhood, there’s a bar that mirrors it. And in Fairmount, that’s Bar Hygge, a laidback place with a few fancy touches. It’s as common to hear people complaining about their boss over $5 beers as it is to see people grabbing a bottle of prosecco for a late-night dinner party. The menu offers a bit more than your average gastropub—think smoky chicken liver mousse toast, thick-cut salmon ceviche, and juicy hanger steak. No matter what you get to start, end with their take on a Tastykake Kandy Kake." - candis mclean

"At Bar Hygge, they are serving classic cheeseburgers with culinary swagger: Ground chuck and brisket patty topped with melted cabot cheddar cheese — both filling and flavorful." - Ernest Owens

"At Bar Hygge, their boards are focused on incorporating local cheeses from across Pennsylvania and pairing unconventional meats and spreads (such as Benton’s Smokey Mountain Country ham and house smoked peach chutney) — creating an unforgettable charcuterie dining experience." - George Banks-Weston
