Perch Pub

great table side views of broad street!
Excellent use the fresh ingredients.
Very theater conscious, server asked what time our show was. food came out fast.
great small bites menu good beer selection.
a nice calm atmosphere on broad street.
what we ate:
started with nachos - good chips, could use more meat, great fresh salsa and guac. cheese sauce left a lot to be desired.
baja tacos - excellent fish, crispy cabbage, good corn tortillas
french burger - light brioche bun, buttery cheese and savory caramelized onions. not the best burger meat slightly greasy. onion rings looked amazing but left a lot to be desired, kind of soft not really crispy, easy fix cook 'em in hotter oil.
we definitely go back for happy hour and small bites.

Happy Hour - Cajun Style

So I FINALLY make it into the city and....we go to happy hour outside of the city!

Last night we, and a bunch of other rugby peeps, traveled out to Manayunk to visit The Bayou. Now Manayunk is a very cute little town about 20 minutes outside of the city. I'd love to go shopping there one day.
But, i digress, The Bayou turns out to be a great, grungy, "college bar", where there's adequate bar food (but nothing authentically cajun as the name would suggest) and great dance music and wait it gets better... $1 happy hour drinks! Thats right $1.
Now although there are many cool bars and restaurants in Manayunk, I don't believe you can find a better happy hour deal. Check it out!
