I come to Yards fairly often and love the beer and most of the food options I have had the pleasure to try. But today I had something I was not happy with at all. The nachos are not good at all. Half the chips don’t have anything on them and the toppings on them are not nearly enough to warrant $15. I won’t be ordering again. The wings I tried after were very good. The nachos experience won’t stop me from returning to Yards, but I certainly won’t be getting them again.

Yards continues to be one of the places I always prioritize coming back to when I visit family or friends in Philadelphia. As someone who is sensitive to gluten I am very appreciative that they use a strong filtration process in many of their beers that makes them accessible to me. The large interior space also feels similar to a German beer hall and the energy of the crowd is always exceptional for Philly sports events.

In town from Maryland visiting for the day. Came in for lunch and a tour on a Sunday. No wait to be seated and service was quick. They have lots of taps! Had a Philly Pale Ale and a Philly Standard. Both were very nice. Ordered the Brunch Burger. Oh my what a treat that is. Scrumptious. Before leaving I took the tour. The tour guide, Mike, was entertaining. They give you a beer to drink during the tour. The total tour time was an hour, but 50 minutes of that is Mike talking. The actual tour area is fairly small. If I am ever back this way again I would definitely stop in for a drink and bite to eat.

We visited and had a couple beers and the pretzel. It was not that busy. Beer was good. We didn’t go on tour. The area was not a very good area. We walked to from our hotel. The walk there was not bad. When we left there was a lot of people under a nearby underpass. I think the Septra garden street exit was located there. It was pretty rough. We tried to get a bus to leave but being Sunday the bus route was running different times and not arriving when scheduled. We ended up walking about 2 miles down spring garden street to the. Museum of art. We had many homeless people asking for money. It was not a safe area. We should not of been walking it.

Great beer, great service. Short walk from the city centre but worth the steps! Tasty range of beers and other non beer drinks, loads of seating. Quiet when we went but guess it’s a buzz at weekends!
