The regulars were so welcoming to us newbies and the bartenders /servers were awesome!!! The drinks were cold and the shots were huge lol. The cheese fries and Cheesesteak were so yummy. When you walk in, it’s dark and seedy with everyones favorite memories playing on the jukebox. The perfect “dive” bar with the perfect atmosphere. We walked around the city to many different bars of different class, but Oscars Tavern was by far our favorite on every level. We even returned there for a drink and to say goodbye the next day. It’s got that feel good vibe, I seriously loved it.
Love a hole in the wall dive bar? This is the best place. Delicious food, great drinks, perfect service. I constantly travel and it's places like this I need in life.
The best dive bar in Philly. They still have the Christmas decorations up from Christmas Eve 1981. A classy establishment.
Great place to go. It's like cheers. It's a fun place to hangout without being judged. Great prices on beer and food
i love everything about this place. the service is always awesome, it's kind to those on a budget, and it feels like you've stepped back in time here in the best possible way. places like this, that contribute so much to the character of a city, are a rare jewel.

Best cheese steaks hands down, not to mention their other great sandwiches! And of course an ice cold beer to wash it down. We've been going to Oscars for over 30 years and always bring out of towners for a real taste of Philly!
My husband and I love Oscars, the drinks are awesome and the food is delicious and we like the diverse crowd. Oscars gets
Has been my go to place for 20 plus years love it!!!
My son and I loved it. We're filmmakers , interested in having your bar in a film?
Real dive bar with some damn good food! My husband and I got their cheesesteaks on more than one occasion during our visit to Philly. Great beer prices compared to a lot of other bars in the area. We will definitely return!
This is everything you could possibly want in a good dive bar. Friendly people, a welcoming bartender, comfortable no-frills atmosphere, very reasonable prices, and cold beer. My mom and I were in town for a concert and were thrilled to stumble upon this gem. We were treated like old friends and we enjoyed chatting with everyone. A perfect experience!!
It's a legit dive bar. But a great one. Beer was cold. Music was playing. Great crowd. Check it out for a few drinks!
Great little gem we recently found! Always walked past thus place on our trips to the city but now it's a new favorite! Greeted by the friendliest bartender as we sat amongst some locals at the bar. Cheap beer and great cheesesteaks!
I like it a lot, the beer is always super cold and well served, and it is always possible to talk without shouting, it is my oasis.
The place was crowded yet the 2 bartenders were efficient and everyone got thier drinks. All the patrons were in a happy holiday mode.
Best bar in Philly! 5 nights in a row while visiting at the end of September beginning of October for NECA Convention I made some friends and upon my return to Philly i will definitely return for a drink! Cheers Dakota Kaech
Oscar's is definitely no frills. And that's great. Because it gives you what you want. You can duck in off the street to escape the intense cold, or unbearable heat. The hospitality is warm and the draft beer is always cold. And very reasonable for Center City Philly. A place where you'll find dudes wearing work boots, and others wearing suits. And there's no surprises. Temper your expectations and you're never disappointed.
Cash-only hangout spot great for the young and young at heart. Perfect place to watch the Phillies. Generous pours and solid prices. Good bartenders as well.
Me and my fiancé had a great time :) I am so happy we could hang out for drinks this late :) thank you Philly. Bartender made good drinks.
Cash only, no nonsense bar in center city. These kinda places are golden unicorns, leftover from the before times, and they're your only glimpse into the Philly-That-Was.
Great bartenders and good selection! Today, just as happy hour hit, the bartender walked around with soft pretzels for everyone. I love this place.
Fun dive bar! The service is excellent and after 4pm you can get one and a half cheesesteaks for the price of a whole. Prices are decent for Center City. The upholstery is totally ripped up from customers which made us laugh!
All some places to hang out watch co)lege football it's like u went home to visit family on a holiday everybody is sho cheerfully polite great place my opinion love this atmosphere here
My coworker invited me after my shift and I had a great time. FYI I make when I come next time I make sure I have friends to carry me to Uber. Tokyo Tea is the bomb!!!!
Your neighborhood bar in the heart of center city.
Lives up to its reputation. Tall lager!
Great local dive bar feel. Not too far from main attractions so you don't have to venture far to get there, but far enough that it didn't seem to be packed with tourists. Mostly friendly staff the 2 nights my wife and I went.
Classic spot great people great time! It does get packed so grab a barstool early
