Devil's Den
Upon hearing about Devil's Den, South Philly's newest gastropub, I immediately pictured a cramped, dingy bar. Walls painted black. Graffiti'd cliches smeared all over the bathroom walls in White-Out and Sharpie marker. Loud angry music and the smell of day-old vomit. You know... stuff you normally picture when you think of Hell. But how wrong I was. Devil's Den is not how I envision my inevitable afterlife at all--in fact, beer connoisseurs may think they've died and gone to heaven. Spacious and all kinds of swanky for a South Philly watering hole, Devil's Den features a huge selection of yummy and exotic brews to feast upon. The building itself has big windows that open on gorgeous summer days and two flat screens sit behind the bar, featuring whatever sport a Philly team is excelling in at the moment. Servers' faces are familiar if you've frequented other South Philly hot spots, so you'll feel right at home when you park yourself at the bar and lush it up.
