Chickie & Pete's

I've posted previously about Chickie & Pete's but I just went the other night so I thought I would give my own personal feedback.

There are several Chickie & Pete's throughout Philly....I went to the 'big' one in South Philly.
It's located at 1526 Packer Avenue. This bar is known as 'South Philly's, big, shiny, crab-frying sports bar.'

The bar is very big and attracts large crowds. I went with a group of friends for a recent Phillies game (mostly just as a PreGame spot), but it was a really good time. It gets pretty crowded in there & we had to wait about 45 mins for a big table for the 10 of us but you can hang out right by the bars until your table is ready (at which time they will announce it over the speakers).

I suggest checking out this bar for a fun night & a great spot to watch a game! Also, don't forget to get some food to coat your stomach as you consume all that beer!! I'm a picky eater and I loved the food, especially the Old Bay-dusted Crab Fries...yummy!! They also have chicken sandwiches, poppers, mozzarella sticks, wings, and lots of other great food! Enjoy!

    Sounds like a classic sports bar and a pretty decent time. More of place you go to while in Philly, not a place you to Philly for....

    Chickie's and Pete's is a great place to see a Birds' game. It is the place to be if you are not actually at the game. It is a great crowd and great food. They usually have a DJ for commercials too ...great atmosphere. You can't find a place like that for New York.

    I just turned 21 less than a year ago but I'm happy my hometown is only about 20 mins from Philly so I won't have to travel far to go to Chickie & Pete's for a game w/ friends...definately loved the place as well.
