Reviews for Bad Brother in Philadelphia, PA
The food was amazing! I had the Pork Belly and tried the duck. The Eraserwood Nitro IPA was super smooth and tasty. Hamilton was... incredibly inviting and personable, making the experience memorable. Definitely have to come back when I make it back this way.Thanks Hamilton! Read more
I can’t get over how good this place was. The restaurant is nearly disguised as another house on the block. The Sriracha... Buffalo wings are probably some of the best wings I’ve ever had. The beer selection is unique. We met one of the owners whowelcomed us to the neighborhood. This will be our new go- to bar. Read more
First time visit, had the bread with the butter since the bread is crusty on the outer layer and soft like smooth silk, the... butter was a sea salt combination with honey... crazy. also had the giant chorrizo cheesesteak, but it was too salty for mypreference but the portion is huge. Second visit, had bread with butter, wings, burgers with fries. The bread is still...crazy. Wings are like general tso style made, but listen, it is not sweet at all instead of a buffalo taste wings of general tsostyle, perfect spiciness uhmmm. Fries are with the aioli sauce which is by far the best I had, fries style are in wedges, whenyou bite the fries the potatoes comes out and bite you back. The burger are by far THE BEST IN THE PHILLY, can't comment try ityourself. Read more
Is this a bar or a gourmet restaurant? Yes. Some of the best food I've had in weeks. The beauty is being the best food and... menu within a bar setting. Great beer and wine options. Wish I had tried a cocktail to round out the experience and review. 4stars because the environment is lacking and sound needs softening. Bad brother could improve from inviting a sister to thedecision-makers table every once in a while. Read more
So this is what happened to the old Brigid’s? Well Bad Brother is a worthy successor and formidable gourmet pub! It has a... great selection of beer, wine and cider. The owners are gracious and on-site and the vibe is chill, friendly and nopretense! Oh, and the food is top notch, that’s the most important thing. It’s a changing menu of pub-fair ...ish with agourmet touch. Read more
Bad Brother is a cozy bar in North Philadelphia with a small menu and big portions. I ordered wings (7) and a pork roll that... came with fried wedges and a cup of aioli. The wings are small, which I prefer since they have more flavor than the gianthormone wings other bars serve. Crunchy and juicy. The seeded pork roll was massive, I could only eat half. Seating is availableat the bar, indoor, and outdoor. Service is fast and friendly. They frequently check on you and make sure your drink is full.Overall, I enjoyed Bad Brother and would order again.

Do not miss this neighborhood favorite deep in Fairmount. I have walked by it many times without even knowing it was there. To... the passerby, this place looks like a easily skipped dive bar but those two do stop in will be rewarded. Although it wasgetting chilly, we decided to sit outside and I am glad we did. There isn't much sidewalk space but the foot traffic in thispart of the nieghborhoof is light so it works well. This is a great place to spend time at all hours of the evening ornight. We started with their Carangi Rustic bread that comes with this awesome salted honey butter. It's only $5 and is a veryamplified version of table bread. I also started with a Caesar Salad (off the kids menu) that would be enough for a meal if youadd chicken. The dressing was great and the croutons were perfectly toasted. For dinner, I decided to go with the Siracha Wingthat came with some sort of Cucumber/Dill Ranch. I had read reviews saying they were fried perfectly - crispy of the outsidewith meat that falls of the bones, I certainly found this to be true. I would recommend these if you are just eating here once.They are a must-try. My friend got the infamous $15 Sausage Sandwich that came with thick cut fries. I only tried a little, butfrom what I tasted it was unbelievable. For only $15 this is a ton of food. I am happy Bad Brother survived Covid and I amthrilled to live so close to this place. Their menu appeared to have changed from just a few weeks ago and I am excited to seewhat they have in store. Our meal cost $57 before tip - which is not cheap but certainly reasonable considering but was dinnerin the city. We also go two drinks. Definitely do yourself a favor and make the trip (struggle to find parking) and try thisplace. They also do take out, which I hope to try soon. Well done, Bad Brother! Read more
So good!! Go here! The cheeseburger is everything you’ve ever wanted! Great beer options, too! ---- This is still one of my... favorite places 5 months later... been here several times now. The changing menu is excellent. Recently had the mushroomtriangolini (perfectly balanced flavors) and fresh donuts... drooling thinking about it. Read more
