North Star Bar - Philadelphia

  • NileGuide Expert Says:

    Whether you're there to see a show or just to have a beer, you'll surely enjoy the laid-back hipster/punk atmosphere of North Star. Come for happy hour (5-7) and enjoy 25 cent wings and half-priced draught beer.


  • Description:

    • The North Star, located at the edge of the Fairmount-art museum area, is the place Supersuckers, Fall Out Boy, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs play. It's small, but not cramped, with a front bar and poolroom that lead to a dimly lit, lodgelike concert space. The bar menu is inexpensive, with burgers, nachos, and other no-utensils-required fare. The crowd depends on the band, but tends to be stylishly grubby 20-somethings.
