It's on Terrace Street.
Greatest beer selection in Roxborough/Manayunk. On tap and in the 'frig. A little uncertainty with the menu sometimes, but whatever the kitchen's putting out is really good.
And did I mention the beer selection?

that's not a crummy bar, imho. it's pretty nice. any place that servers good food doesn't count, i think.

Isn't that the Fountain Street Pub? It's definitely not fancy, but when I've been in there it's generally pretty mellow. No fights spilling out into the street like the annual one at Spanky's.

The one at Terrace & Salaignac is Grill's Tavern. It is a dive. The biggest dive that I bet no one has ever stepped foot in is The Common Ground at Cotton & Fleming.

A few years ago before I had a cell-phone I
had "car trouble" on that hill of Pechin Street,
right up from the Salvation Army .

I went into DeLeo's to get change for the pay-phone
and the bartender said he wanted me to "buy something" so, I had a draft beer. The bartender looked like "FRAN" from Kookla, Fran and Ollie. He
had two big teeth on the top row will little else around them.

He asked me if i was a cop ! I said if I was a
cop I would just call for the Captain and he would
send me another car. I'm not a policeman I told
the bartender.

With that the bartender reached out and shook my hand.
He told me my hands are too smooth to be a working
amn.....and so it went. There were only about ten
other customers in the bar, plus the bartender.

I called the AAA and sat in my car. Just then
a Fifth District Police car pulled my behind me
and the female officer got out to help me. I told
her I could not move the car. Now, car 515 pulled
up....he was just patrolling by. I had the cables
to give me a jump and we did.

By now, the DeLeo's bartender was watching all of
this from across the street with about four customers.

The male officer left first then, as the female
officer and I drove by the onlookers yelled FIVE-O ,
FIVE-0 . They had their excitment for the day !

I wonder what goes on in that bar, that they are so concerned with the where abouts of the police?
