Read the reviews and a tad skeptical but we were very impressed with service, atmosphere and food. We had the Mad Elf beer,a Bloody Mary, cheese curds that were freshly made and not from a bag and the BBQ burger. Our server was Gordon who was awesome! We had great service and great food!

Very nice restaurant especially for airport location. Located just inside security in Concourse C. Ambience was relaxing with classy music. I had chicken soup and chicken sandwich with fries. Soup was definitely homemade. Sandwich was tasty with a slaw, lettuce tangy ranch type dressing. Fries were crisp and tasty. Service was good.

Really nice restaurant for the airport, Philly needed this! Ambience is relaxing with nice music, not overly loud.. I started with the cheese curds since I was starving with hours to kill. Delicious, and hit the spot. Then the “Old School” burger, which I requested without bacon, and arrived with bacon. I took the bacon off and upon diving in, found it to be gristly - ate less than half. Service was good and they offered a discount on the burger which was nice.

They have sports and they really hustle food and service wise! Downside the TVs aren’t great they are like tube TVs and are small but at least they have Sunday football. The cheese curds were decent along with the shrimp skewers. The value isn’t great many of the cheese curds had no cheese just a shell of fried batter. The shrimp skewers were decent not great.

My first American meal after coming back from Italy and it was soooooo good! Nashville hot chicken sandwich was perfectly hot and the fries were crispy and fresh. My only complaint is that once we got our food and were checked on once after that, we never saw our server again for almost 45 minutes. No offer to top off drinks or anything. Luckily we were close to our gate, because by the time she finally came around we were boarding in 15 minutes.

How hard can it be to make a decent plate of nachos??!! Apparently harder than I think. These had some sort of tomato sauce on them. Which totally ruined the whole flavor profile. Who does that? ( And it was NOT listed on the menu that way.) The chips also lacked any saltiness. If they had left off the tomato sauce,the remaining ingredients would have been fine. Especially the decent portion of guac.

I was looking for a table service restaurant in the Philadelphia Airport for lunch and I found Bud & Marilyn's in the C concourse near the Marketplace. The hostess greeted me and was seated immediately. The server took my drink and food order promptly. I got the Old School Burger with French Fries and an Iced Tea. The food and service was very good. Unfortunately, on the other side of the wall divider next to the bar there was a large table of airport employees which were loud, using foul language and various people came and went from the restaurant to that table. One employee was from the restaurant as he went behind the bar. The other tables around me were appalled as a verbal fight broke out.

Lisa was terrific server. Attentive but let me relax, too. I ordered Marilyn’s wedge salad with seared shrimp. The balsamic vinegarette was light and with the fresh herbs, radishes, and cherry tomatoes, it was perfect meal before my flight home. It was refreshing to eat in the closest thing to a real restaurant at PHL Terminal C. Good music playing.
