Melfi's in Charleston Will Transport You to 1960s Italy | Bon Appétit

"Reitz and Mink nabbed their early 1900s Brunswick bar—prized in the antiques game—from an old tavern in Philly. The sapele counter and triple-arched backbar provide a nostalgic yet energetic focal point to the space." - ByJennifer Hope Choi

This is a really nice place. It's a trendy youngish crowd. It has a large bar on the first floor and a pool table on the second floor. The music is awesome and the vibe is friendly and relaxed. A friend of mine recommended it last evening so we came over and loved it immediately. We returned again tonight. It's a great Bar in the Center City area. It's a perfect place to bring your date. It's safe and clean. I highly recommend this bar.

BAR is just as it says, it’s just a bar. BUT if you just feel like having a beer or simple drink at a bar then this is the place for you. They do have food,lol. It’s barchuterie, lol. Chips and Slim Jim’s that’s it. This place does have an upstairs, which contains a pool table as well as other games. It’s just a simple place. Prices were reasonable as well. They do have a signature drink called the Fun Bag. It’s the owners mixture actually in an adult size type of juice bag.

Bartender with the aviators rescued my dog from a fire. Big husky white bartender loaned me his Subaru Outback for a date (she loved it), bartender with the long hair and mustache helped me cheat in my math class, other bartender with the long hair makes a great vodka soda, bartender with the dreads helped my grandmother cross the street. Slim Jims cooked perfectly. Great first visit! I will be coming back.

Plain and simple, the name says all you need. Laid back bar. Small but cozy, I didn't make it upstairs. Kudos for having Bells Oberon on tap. I sat and people watched while I sipped. Everyone was enjoying the good vibes.

Extensive beer list in cans. Not so much on draft. And we had to wait about 15 minutes to close out because the only bartender on staff was outside smoking.

Came on Monday and was transported back to 2008, emo and post-hardcore music playlist was on point. Simple good drinks, great Christmas lighting. Cool bartender had helpful recommendations for other places nearby.

They have the BEST pickeback shots. It’s worth going just for those. This is a classic unassuming Philly bar as it is aptly named. It’s reasonably priced for its location. It’s mostly counter seating that I’ve noticed. They have some drink specials.

Visited here from London last year. Dive bars like this simply don't exist in Central London anymore, so great that they're still alive and well in Central Philly. Place was very welcoming and laid back, great emo/hardcore tunes.
