McGillin’s Olde Ale House threw open its doors the year Lincoln was elected president. That’s shortly after the Liberty Bell cracked and long before ground was broken for Philadelphia City Hall. The beer taps have been flowing since 1860 — making it the oldest continuously operating tavern in Philadelphia and one of the oldest taverns in the country.
At McGillin’s, EVERY week is beer week!
We’ll celebrate National Martini Day. Lemoncello Martinis $8. June 19, 2022.
Drink where your father drank when he was your age. And maybe he still downs a few brews here with his buddies. Added bonus: McGillin’s is run by a father/son team. Third Sunday in June.
Wizards & Muggles can stop by before/after seeing the Harry Potter exhibit at the Franklin Institute for a secret menu.
Insider’s Tip: Only those “in the know” will get to see this menu of magical & delicious Harry Potter Cocktails & Spell-Bounding food. You have to ask for it to see it.
Some of the items on the menu: Butterbeer, Polyjuice Potion, Pumpkintini. For kids: Muggles of Hot Chocolate, Professor Sprout’s Veggie Garden & more.
Throughout June, when you order our Philly Pride cocktail (Tito’s Vodka, lemonade, cranberry juice, triple sec) for $8, McGillin’s & Tito’s will donate $2 to William Way LGBT Community Center
