Slightly P. • November 30, 2019Completely restored. The bar was nice, but the star of the show was the chandelier! Amazing acoustics, too. Not a bad seat in the house!

Gregory S. • July 24, 2022Security is light, bring a water do not pay for it. Avoid getting food.

bill b. • June 26, 2022Wonderful small local theater company. Good sets, lighting, and acting.

Maddie L. • May 25, 2018This place is so much fun! Downstairs is very chill and upstairs is great for dancing. Definitely better suited for a younger crowd. Drinks are also fairly priced which is hard to find in the city.

B.J. E. • August 29, 2010You can also catch The N Crowd every Friday after the Fringe Featival!

Allie I. • January 30, 2012One of the best places to catch an indie film screening, we've seen everything from riveting documentaries to old B&W flicks. Buy tickets online early; this spot is so popular they often sell out.

Jay G. • October 13, 2016Batting cage by day, concert venue by night! Really cool little venue that might not be the prettiest but surely has character. Concerts here are truly an amazing experience.

Greg M. • September 7, 2014Awesome short-form improv (think Whose Line Is It Anyways or Wildin' Out) with no bad seats in the house = win!

Gary S. • September 19, 2012Did not know they have a lovely courtyard space here. Combined with their little jewel box theatre makes a great party venue. Wedding anyone?

Matt M. • August 7, 2019Beers are super expensive (even for a concert venue) and you can't see the stage from most spots in the venue. Easily my least favorite venue in all of Philly – even including the arena/stadiums!

Gary N. • June 18, 2015Very nice bar. Service very prompt and friendly. Good selection of beers. Live bands on certain nights.

Jade H. • March 13, 2017I've been here for an orchestra concert. The acoustics and sound is amazing from every seat. It is a beautiful concert hall. It is simply marvelous from the first step you take inside.

Estia Restaurant • November 16, 2011We have live jazz brunch, live Greek Music on Fri & Sat, and a pre-theatre prix fixe menu for theatre goers!

Anil C. • December 10, 2012free hot water available in the lobby!
