The Mag Bar

stopped in by default. was in the neighborhood and we were starving. popped into a spot across the street and it was way too bright and loud. went to the next one, it was byob, next! so here we landed. we sat at the bar. Vince was waiting on us. he was great. funny, friendly, and helpful with suggestions for food. he made sure we were taken care of and our glasses were never empty . 3 stars cause the food was just ok and its not the kind of place i would hang. this quickly became apparent when young promo girls, in school girl skirts up to their ass cracks, working for Guinness, were all up in our grills pushing their gnarly product. its just cheesy. were not all men with frat boy mentalities. sometimes, some of us dont like the objectification of women while were eating a burger.save it for the pole. but this is the burbs. maybe thats how its done? maybe im just getting old and less tolerant of the nonsense. either way, not much chance ill be back, cause i never really knew where i was in the 1st place. philly kid lost in the burbs on a quest for food and libations.

The Mag has over 75 different beers and now that I have your attention, during any Phillies game, all Yuenglings are only $2.00 and hot dogs are a buck.

The Mag has covered it all with dance parties to live DJ's, live acoustic music, karaoke night, live bands, NTN trivia and happy hour. It's a sports bar, a dance club and a great place to relax and unwind or wind up with 1/2 priced appetizer specials and low priced drinks.

Every month they have something going on with drink specials, parties, a poker tournament, which includes a dinner buffet before hand and a chance to win a 50" big screen TV.

The bar menu is nothing to take for granted, even though it has a lot of your favorite munchies, salads, great pizzas, ribs and sandwiches. This is an Italian family owned and run business, even though on Sundays, they turn Irish with Irish day.

Their fresh mozzarella is hand breaded, they bake their own baguettes for sandwiches and they have won awards for their Philly Black Angus Steak sandwich. If you order a chicken parm sandwich or a veal parm or meatball sub, it was all made here, fresh and never frozen.

They slow roast pork for 22 hours with dry rub and pull it apart for an outstanding pulled pork sandwich, I ask them for BBQ sauce for mine, even though they serve it the traditional New Orleans way.

They have quesadillas galore and I am in love with the lump crab and shrimp one. The bang-Bang shrimp is a spicy New Orleans treat and they have home made potato skins. All twenty two varieties of burgers are hand formed and fresh.

Happy Hour is Monday through Friday, from 5PM to 7PM, featuring 1/2 priced drafts, $1.00 off mixed drinks and wine plus all apps. are 1/2 price.
