"This Fishtown spot makes good cocktails without taking itself too seriously (no pyrotechnics, no speakeasy rules). Come with a date or a few friends and drink a banana daiquiri or a penicillin good enough to chug like water. They're open late so you can stop by after dinner in the neighborhood or make Next Of Kin your new 1am destination. They have velvet skull designs in the bathroom, but don't think about it too hard." - candis mclean
"Fishtown’s Next of Kin is open late, which makes it a good option for a first date when the person is hot but you know the relationship isn’t going anywhere except your apartment a few times. The space is properly dark (so many Philly bars aren't) and not pretentious at all. Drink a well-made banana daiquiri or a Penicillin. There's no food available at the bar, but you're not dating this person so you can eat well or have invigorating conversations." - candis mclean

"I included an update from co-creator Jason Okdeh to clarify the Philly Sammiekase experience held at Next of Kin: he said the event was intended to “tell a story — the true story of the sandwich,” starting with English tea sandwiches and moving through Japanese egg salad sandwiches, using premium ingredients and highlighting products like A5 Wagyu, caviar, and Jawndiments, and adopting the style of an omakase to narrate that progression. Okdeh emphasized that their events aim to highlight different cultures, methods, flavors, ideals, and traditions, expressed an immense appreciation for every culture reflected in the food, and said being categorized otherwise is disheartening." - Ernest Owens
"A restaurant, bar and butcher shop – the beautiful chic-industrial interior sets the stage for a magical night out. Stop here for dinner, drinks and/or a bone-in Porterhouse to cook at home and sign up for classes while you can." - The Heads of State
