PJ Whelihan’s at the Walbert

The negatives:
Small bar area. Uncomfortable bar seats… which is understandable because of how old it is. However you would think there would be something they could do to improve it. They have a lot of regulars who walk in like they own the place. They do NOT properly pour a Guinness.
The positives:
The fries. The wings. I actually enjoy both. I’ve never had an issue with them. The bartenders are nice… just not very fast. So don’t come in if you are in a hurry.
Overall I’d say you are better off going to the Broadway location. I haven’t been to the other locations. Broadway definitely pours a proper Guinness!

Used to be better. Have been here many times over the past 5 or so years. They are now consistently slow flipping tables so people have to stand awkwardly in the corner to wait for a table. Servers tend to be inattentive and food is slow to come out of the kitchen even though its pub food. There arent many tables. Beer selection is average tbh. I think the food is overpriced as well for what it is. Been heading elsewhere more often in recent years.

A favorite local spot of mine! Food is always good and the service is always friendly! Has more of a local feel than other PJs which is cool. Check this place out if you’re in the area. I will definitely be back!

Friendly staff small Venue. Food was tasty, enjoyed the different sauces on the wings. The wings were still tasty when reheated at home as well. I also had the Chicken Tacos, which were on special, found them fresh and crunchy.
Check them out if you are in the area, this location seems to be the smallest one I will check out other locations as well.

Great wings! They also had s great selection of craft beers. Service was excellent everyone was very friendly, the bar was s little crowded but I guess with great service you will attract a crowd

Wings are awesome and there are a ton of different wing sauces to try. A nice place to hang out and relax with friends but not that kid friendly.

After 2 visits I’m thinking no 3^rd. Wings were cold both times and the service, bartenders and waitresses included, is bad. Tighlman PJs seems much better to me.

This place WAS good at one time. Sadly, no longer! The food is blah, but the biggest complaint is how dirty the place is. The bathroom seems like it gets cleaned maybe once a week which makes me wonder how often the kitchen gets cleaned. The whole place just smells dirty. Manager needs to do a better job with customer service and cleaning the place.

Meh. Food is ok, has gone downhill lately. Beer selection is decent. Lots of TVs for the games and service is generally good.

I’ve been to the PJ Whelihan’s on Tilgham for wing nights but wished there was another location that was less crowded. My friend took me to this location for Wing Night and I had a much better experience. Tuesdays are Wing Night so all their wings are half off. I ordered my wings with mild and my friend had the hot and honey. Both sauces were delicious and they provided us with endless blue cheese dressing and celery to cool the heat down. They also gave us wet wipes which are essential in the buffalo wing eating experience. This would be a great place to catch up with old friends while drinking some beer and eating delicious wings.

After checking the website where it said Tuesday’s half price wings special we headed out to PJ’s around 2pm and ordered 4 order of wings, by the time we got the check we were surprised it wasn’t half price as the website said… Little did the website say on their main page that it started at 3pm. Our waitress said «oh I’m really sorry! You were so close to get the half price», we were expecting a little more of consideration, we were the only ones in the restaurants, who goes in the middle of the afternoon for wings anyway? It was clear we went down there for the special and they couldn’t do an exception when we were so close in time.
We are really disappointed with the service, we just moved to our new place which is two minutes away from Pj’s and we were looking forward for many half price Tuesdays, now instead, we left Pj’s with a bittersweet taste in our mouths.
In restaurant business you always have to make sure your costumers leave happy so then you can expect many more visits… We were visiting for the first time, they could have done way better since their website didn’t specify the time of the half price special. Such a shame our waitress couldn’t put a bigger effort in offering a better service. The least she could of done was recommend we grab a drink in the bar and wait for the wings to be half off but she was silent about mentioning the special didn’t start until 3 even after we ordered the 40 wings.

PJ’s does a great job of providing good solid bar food, chipper service, nice mixed no-​drama crowds and good atmospheres. For thosue used to PJ’s larger new venues in Philly at Wells Fargo Center or the former converted Bennigans (Bethlehem/​West Chester — big hits) — you’ll love the same menu in the intimate environment of this old roadhouse/​hotel. Outdoor dining in decent weather. Always lively. Nestled off busy Route 309, just a minute north of Route 22 (behid Daniels BMW) and 3 minytes form the Tilghman Street PJ’s, it’s larger sibling. Only the locals know about the little bro — so it’s a bit of a well kept secret for out of towners.

The food here is okay, it’s just normal casual restaurant/​bar food. The service at PJ’s is pretty good, though. We visited when Hurricane Sandy hit and nobody had electricity. They were one of the only places open, they were jam-​packed, but the staff did a great job and had a good spirit about it.

Had a chicken cheese steak with inferno sauce… was okay. I enjoyed the sauce and the fries were pretty good. I think next time I’d just get wings. I wish they had a smaller size of wings, though… the lowest order is 10.

It’s typical bar food. Nothing about the food stands out as far as exceptional BUT here is why I gave it 4 stars; quick and friendly service, you can count on consistency as far as the food, and the drinks are always ice cold.
And they have the best manager, or maybe he is the owner… I don’t know his name, but he is always there and always attentive to his guests.

Not sure how we saw this place on our drive home but we are happy we did. Think about your favorite dive bar with good quality food from a local chain. The décor and structure were fantastic. The service was very good. A very happy find.

Line out the door… and now I know why. I was here on business on a Tuesday and little did I know that Tuesday’s are half-​price wing night. What I DID know was that I had a long day and needed a place that had good food, great people and cold beer. PJ’s nailed it. I found me the only seat left at the bar as the restaurant was packed. The smiling bartender was all over my drink order immediately and also gave me some pointers on the menu. She was awesome right out of the gate.
Even though it was half-​price wing night, the buffalo shrimp were calling to me so I answered and ordered me some. Shortly I was looking at 5 succulent butterflied shrimp awash in the house Hit Sauce. And it was a hit indeed! Snappy crunch, wonderful, full flavor of heat and shrimp meat and blue cheese dressing with cubes of blue cheese equal in size to a Yahtzee die. Outstanding!
Alas, I was still hungry. So I ordered a 10 pack of wings, half with the Hot n Honey and half with Inferno sauce. The cute bartender brought out two 10 packs of wings, so basically doubled my order. When I told the bartender that they doubled my order, she looked at the other bartender and they said «ahhhh, it’s okay. Eat those.» So, I did.
The chicken wings had a crispy, full flavor, loaded with meat and the sauce seeps into the wing even two or three bites deep. The heat stays with you.
The Hot n Honey is laced with — what else — rich, honey undertones. And the Inferno had me licking my sauce-​covered and blue-​cheese-​covered fingers like a kid licking a lollipop. The bartender gave me gobs of napkins without me even asking.
Go here. Eat here. Enjoy here. And repeat. I wish there was one closer to my home!

This is a great place for beer, burgers, and wings. It has a nice porch that is open on warm days. The service has always been wonderful.

Good food great waitress and love the view
