"Tavern on Camac is a gay bar in the Gayborhood, and it’s one of those places that you only go to if you’re trying to have a big night out. Downstairs is a full-blown restaurant, with lots of tables and American cuisine. The main floor is a piano bar where the Gaybill Broadway Cabaret performs each Wednesday. And upstairs, It’s a nightclub, with strobe lights, loud house music, and dancing. So you can have any kind of night you want depending on the mood and your taste in Broadway tunes." - candis mclean
"If you’ve dreamed of belting out ballads with a piano accompaniment, or prefer a more traditional karaoke experience, Tavern on Camac has you covered. The multi-level City Center establishment has an intimate piano bar and lounge with a daily schedule of pianists. It also hosts weekly events with some of Philly’s top karaoke hosts and show-stopping show tunes on Sunday where Broadway and theater hits are the focus." - Annemarie Dooling
"You don’t go to Tavern On Camac to start your night. You go to Tavern On Camac when you’ve already been to a couple of bars and are ready to shut it down at a combo piano bar/dance club. This place has been around forever and was originally one of the first gay bars in the area, but now it’s full of everyone from college students scream-singing songs from Mulan to retired couples who want to pretend they’re back in the ’70s." - sydney mcelwee

"A chill but classy atmosphere, Tavern on Camac is part piano bar, part nightclub, part restaurant — but all fun. Hang out and enjoy some live music with two bucks off drinks every day after 4 p.m. for happy hour. Check out the bar menu with shareable snacks and small plates if you’re feeling peckish. But if you’ve worked up an appetite walking the march route, Tavern on Camac also offers classic comfort food dinner options like meatloaf and lamb Bolognese." - Nick DeSimone
