Las Vegas Lounge

Came here pretty late, around 1130pm, for post-​wedding celebrations. It happened to be close to the hotel everyone was staying at, and it had the capacity to hold our rather large party of 70 people.
As previously mentioned, the space is pretty large, and with the two pool tables, there’s a lot of room to just let loose. We ordered a mountain of Yuenglings and some fries to boot, which were some of the best fries ever. Might have been the Yuenglings talking, but still doesn’t mater.
Service was decent when we sat down, but trying to a drink at the bar was a bit of a struggle. To be fair, again, there were about 70 of us, including both the bride and groom’s parents, so it might an understatement to say that we made the place a little busy. Prices were pretty good for a slightly nicer dive bar, as we managed to their late night happy hour.
I really enjoyed my time here, but it might have just been the state of mind we were all in. Perhaps that’s the state of mind we should all be in when visiting a dive bar. Nonetheless, I’d definitely recommend LVL for a low-​key casual night, perhaps to shoot some pool or watch sports.

Great dive bar. Good atmosphere. Great wait staff. Good prices, Pool tables. Overall, a good place to hang out with friends.

Came here on a Sunday night for Karaōke with a few friends (Karaōke every Sunday starting at 10 PM). The bar had an okay crowd, especially since there were no drink specials. The best deal we could find was $ 3.25 drafts.
When you enter, you’ll see a long bar and toward the back you’ll find seating and pool tables. The karaōke was mixed in with the seating section without a stage, kind of a rinky dink set up and it did not attract much interest.

Chewbacca and Han Solo (Lauren and Drew) deftly handled a drunk patron with finesse and panache not often seen. Always a great experience. The new menu and drink specials are work the visit!

Came here on our trip from Las Vegas (home) to philly. We saw this placed listed on «nearby» on the Unilocal app. The reviews seemed good enough for us to walk down. First off– walking in– this place is not clean. There was trash on the floor and lots of stains. There was only a few peoples in here. seemed to be locals. We sat down at the bar and the top of the bar was sticky, enough so that I did not want to lean on it or put my purse down. My fiancé ordered a beer as I decided. I asked the bartender if they served food and she handed me a menu. I decided against eating based on my feelings towards this place. The bartender was very sweet, she actually gave us recommendations on better bars to eat and drink specialty cocktails in the local area. this place screams dive bar, we were out of there quickly as that is not the vibe we like. **on a side note**Nothing about this place had a Las Vegas feel or realistic Vegas décor. We are from Vegas. Customer service good. Recommend cleaning the place up a bit. It’s off putting as a customer

the bartenders care more about their friends stopping in to hang out than paying customers. when you sit down youre not handed a menu youre just asked what you want. –i dont know what i want i just sat down and dont frequent the place, so im unsure what there is available. the drafts tasted off, but bottles/​cans were fine. i didnt eat here so i cant judge that. the bathrooms were clean though which is always a plus.

Walked in late one day
Sat at a table and read
No server saw me

Was just okay. Too many better places to go.

Decent vibe, but really rude bar tender. He ignored us and other customers multiple times and said a few rude things. Otherwise, this bar has a good variety of drinks and relaxed vibe with music and pool tables.

This might be closer to 2 stars but there’s nothing special about this dive bar. Although it’s kept clean– the dark décor of this place and the usual emptiness really makes me not want to go. Unfortunately my coworkers like setting up happy hours here so I tried it once and they do have fairly cheap specials which is a plus. I’m just not a fan of the whole package.

Standard sorta divey bar in center city, solid drink choices and decent bar type food. I have been coming here for years off and on and have always enjoyed it. Decent beer list, cheapish beer to more craft beers and they are always running some sort of special.

Oh, LVL. What exactly is there to say? The pool table here is decent, while my ability at the game is not. The menu has a good number of options, though the food is generally not good. Definitely do not blow your bucks on the chicken fingers. When you read chicken fingers, imagine the cook’s literal take: thin and overcooked.
Definitely do not order well tequila. Who knew that crap existed, but it’s a dangerous, dangerous path to take. Luckily the bathroom is not as frightening as one might expect. Very occassional drugged out patrons, on the other hand, can be. This is 7^th & Chestnut, so the clientele ranges erratically sometimes.
Libby is an awesome server. She completely agrees with my friends and me that hip-​hop should always be available on the jukebox. Sadly, the owner only enables it during certain unreasonable hours. Like the afternoon before work is out? or something.
LVL is just a dark nexus of low expectations and weirdly banal groups of people that can be completely satisfying some nights.

Nice happy hour specials.
Philadelphia has something special on Wednesday nights called «Sips», which is basically… happy hour.
This divey, yet clean place had some nice specials. I didn’t try the food, but it seemed to be really cheap and my friend said great things about it.
The bathrooms were super clean and they smelled really good– like cinnamon and spice!

3.5 stars. A solid dive bar to pop in for a (liquid) lunch break and catch a game. The beer specials are decent and the hummus is good. Lots of TVs. I caught the USA vs Germany game here last week and the bartenders were great about keeping everyone’s drinks filled and cashing out people quickly.

Very little fazes me by way of rude bartenders, but tonight’s experience at Pas Vegas Lounge compels me to speak up. A crowd of 15 or so folks came into the bar that was virtually dead at the time. Certainly the bar wasn’t ready for them but instead of welcoming the business they went out of there way to act perturbed a crowd of customers actually showed up.
From there the manager, a 30-​something man, joined the female bartender working the bar and then proceeded to chew out a customer for standing too close to the bar’s only exit (from the actual bar that is). Rather than simply asking the young man to move he belittled him and spoke to him like a child. The customer said nothing but he proceeded to insult him before sulking off rather than give the customer a chance to respond.
It was the exact wrong way to treat a customer. I certainly understood the manager may have had a point but instead of simply asking the customer to move to the side to help unblock the entrance he was a grade a jerk.
I’ve never witnessed such unwarranted, immature rudeness in my life. Certainly I’ll not be returning to that establishment.

We show up in a group of 10+ people and all we ended up with was just one round of drinks due to rude staff. No thanks.

In the world of dives, this place is the shittiest… but in the best way! Draught beers come in 20 ounce glasses. They have all sorts of draught options, but something is always on special which is a great way to get hammered for cheap.
The place is huge and layed out really well so no matter how many people you roll in with, there is always space to get comfy. The prices are EXTREMELY reasonable (read: cheap!) and there is usually some sort of speciality cocktail that caters to the fancier crew. They also usually have a fun shot. The most recent time I was in… it was pumpkin pie. It was horrendous… but in the best way.
Say you get too drunk– they have some good bar-​food choices. Not going to be a gourmet meal, but everything tastes great and is priced reasonably. Also… they’ll clog your arteries… which tends to be what i crave after 40 ounces of beer. Say that sitting and eating makes you sleepy… they have pool tables, and some great horrible video games– my favorite of which is Buck Hunter. Serves for great mid-​boozing entertainment.
Service is hit or miss. Servers tend to go AWOL for a bit… but they always come back… and you can always just got to the bar.
Finally, if you’re a lady like myself, and you don’t have a 40 ounce bladder, you’ll be pleased to know that the ladies room in the LVL is oddly immaculate. Given the divey nature of the place, i was kinda scared as to what to expect… but its not scary at all!

Red red walls, pool tables, always odd but not necessarily odd-​in-​a-​bad-​way interactions, and there’s nothing particularly Vegasy about it– aside from one big black & white photo of Dean Martin… These are the things that I think about when I think of the Las Vegas Lounge. Most times I’d think of Las Vegas Lounge if we were heading for dinner at Chifa across the street and had time for a drink before our reservation time. Chifa, now closed… I’ll miss you, my tasty Peruvian friend.
Now here’s this. Maybe I completely blew out my weekend budget and still wanted to drink on a Sunday, for instance. For instance, like just yesterday. We wanted to get out and do something cheapish and watch some football. So, the fact that 20 oz drafts of lager will run your pockets $ 2.75 on Sunday made our stop at Las Vegas Lounge a successful endeavor. No matter that I’d rather drink another beer. No matter that Yuengling seems to give me the next day agita like no other! We had a good ol time. Our bartender was friendly and on top of things too, I should add.
Also, lemme also mention that the ladies room is remarkably spotlessly clean. Remarkably. That’s how come I remarked about it.

Very cool spot, located on an unassuming street. It may be Las Vegas themed but you might be hard pressed to find much Vegas paraphernernalia.
What you will find are red painted walls, 2 red pool tables to match, no frills seating (think chairs from a Knights of Columbus and black pleather diner booths) and lots of framed pictures of Frank Sinatra and naturally, a Rocky poster.
They have a jukebox and a late night happy hour that goes until midnight. It was $ 4.50 for my «Sweet Tea Vodka Drink.»
On a Saturday night close to midnight I would say it was only a quarter full, which kind of surprised me. It feels like the kind of place where no one will bother you, bring a group of any size and they have food (someone’s buffalo wings smelled realllly good!!!) A bit divey, but not ‘dirty.‘
They also have ‘beer to go’ and a draft beer list with decent variety.

Here’s the thing: the first time my buddies and I strolled into Las Vegas Lounge (or LVL, as I’ll be referring to it from now), it was my best friends’ Bachelorette party. I know, I know, not exactly a joint that screams «Come on in, 20-​something girls with your matching tshirts and your phallic straws, and party with US!» That being said, when you have a reservation across the street at Morimoto and a crew of 12 trying to grab a drink quick, it did the job. We played a song on the jukebox, downed about 20oz of beer each, and scampered over, forgetting the dimly lit looking dive we began our night enjoying.
Fast forward to about 3 years later. when I moved from NC to Philadelphia and, surprise surprise, ended up visiting a buddy around lunchtime on a Friday at LVL. Cue one of the more fun crowds I’ve stumbled across during my «day drinking» career: the construction workers enjoying liquid lunches. They’re rowdy, they’re physically exhausted, and they’re hilarious. Nothing like a little noon beer and some rambunctious fellows to make for a beautiful Friday afternoon.
The drinks aren’t overpriced, though they’re not incredibly cheap. The specials, however, are pretty solid and make for a nice happy hour. The food is surprisingly tasty, despite what the dim interior might suggest. I’ll admit, the waitresses I’ve come across during the day are some of the more patient and friendly ladies I’ve ever met. I’ll continue heading there from time to time to visit my buddy, and would recommend it as a nice little pregame spot if you’d like to play a few games of pool or dominate the jukebox with obnoxious songs (though, apparently, those friendly waitresses get a bit annoyed by that. Understood.)
