Dawson Street Pub

Bar$

In another life it was a biker bar, but this Manayunk dive has more recently gained a rep for friendly happy hours, craft beers on tap and satisfying pub grub served in red plastic baskets. Decent veggie and vegetarian options, too. Live jazz and open mics are always on the schedule.
