Nick's makes cheesecake! Specifically this creamy roasted garlic number studded with rosemary caramelized apples and bottomed out with a bacon-dusted crust. Your move, Cheesecake Factory. Read more

Football Sunday, 10.00 all you can eat roast beef buffet, impressive craft beer draft selection, tv's and small bar atmosphere with gourmet food, why should I ever leave. Great local bar!!!!

I'm not sure when they changed the menu and renovated, but the buffalo chicken sandwich is gone and the crab fries are longer amazing. Nicks toast beef. You are dead to me.

Looking for a casual place for a beer with your meal? This is it! The roast beef and pork are their signature dishes. We love the chicken fingers!

They have an aquarium and its def a hole in a wall. Great beers on tap and friendly service.

The friendliest place in the Old City! The best Philly cheese steak in town. Tell Bobbito that Joe from Toronto sent you! Go Flyers Go!

Fried pickles. Apple bacon sliders. Cheesesteaks. Dark horse is the French Onion. I watched a 5 year old drink a bowl down so it must be good.

The burgers! 35% ground bacon...yes, bacon! It's a bacon burger. Maybe you should put bacon on top for good measure.

Its a truly simple place to go watch a ball game in Old City. Cheap beer, etc. They are an official Sixers and Flyers sanctioned bar.
