“ Friendly staff, English pub vibe. Large bwer wine and cocktail selection. The sardine in tomato was excellent, especially paired with the buttered toast and pickled onions ”

“ I loved American Sardine Bar because the food was delicious, the service was attentive, and the atmosphere was was fun. However, I just feel that the items are a bit pricey overall. I really enjoyed my smash burger and the fries. ”

“ I certainly had some reservations on a restaurant that prides itself on its sardines. But in the end it was a pretty good option for sitting outside on a not too hot day. We had to get the sardine sliders. They were on the smaller end, which explains why they're only $3. I was pleasantly surprised by the fish, actually, and the toppings were a nice flavor. Creamy but not too much so. I think toasting the bread would make an exponential addition. We got the crab romesco toast, as this sounded interesting and was a method of sauce we weren't so familiar with. This was fine. The flavoring was overall good but truly the portion of crab was lacking. We, as well as the other two tables immediately next to us, also got the pineapple habanero wings. These were pretty good wings. The habanero certainly snuck up on me. It doesn't come with a dipping sauce but the ranch offered was clutch. The beer selection was a nice variety. They have cocktails too, but we didn't venture into those. I didn't go to the bar area until paying the check but it was much grungier than I was expecting. The seating area outside was so pleasant for the weather we had (simple lawn chairs and a simple table, nothing fancy). Overall, their menu was pretty interesting and seems to change a lot, so would consider coming back to try some more of their options. ”

“ Solid 4.7. Great cocktail menu and beer selection. I got the onion rings and Italian beef sandwich and they were both great. Will definitely be back to try more drinks. ”

“ Just always the correct vibe. Great food. Great staff. Easy going. Perfect for outdoor seating. ”

“ Love Sardine. If you live in 19146 and never been here, then get yourself out of that rock. Super crispy fries, awesome wings, and overall good vibes to chill with your friends. Opt to sit outside when the weather gets warmer; they have cute seatings. Service was good. Didn't have to choke on food since they always fill up my water on time. ”

“ What a hole jn the wall! I'm so glad to have stumbled upon this bar. The ambiance was bustling yet casual for a night of drinks and good food. Service was excellent! We ordered the Sardine platter, Sardine Sliders, the wedge salad, and onion rings. -Sardine platter was delicious especially the squid ink olive tapenade. The smoked trout was also delicious. Everything tasted so fresh. -the sardine sliders were light and refreshing with the pickles. Highly recommend! -the wedge salad was also delicious and very refreshing! Highly recommend if you're looking for a good place for sardines. My boyfriend loved it here! ”

“ The American Sardine Bar has been on my list for a while - I found them when I was doing a google search for pickled eggs in Philadelphia ---just I was hoping I could find a closer place to purchase this delicacy lol. And then I saw all the sardine themed items on the menu and I knew I needed to come here. I had the sardine sliders, the onions rings (this order was bc I saw them going by to another diner and they looked fab- and they were!) and the pickled eggs. I'm already planning when I will go back to get more of those sliders and onions rings. Ironically, I prob wouldn't get the pickled eggs here again. I love pickled eggs and these were not pickled enough and were too peppery compared to the farms where I buy them. Everyone who worked here was friendly and great. Overall seems like a great neighborhood spot w great food. I'll def be back to try more of the sardine items on that menu. ”

“ The food here is delicious. Vibes are super chill and relax, and the drinks are flowing when I saw that the menu had a fish charcuterie platter, I had to have it. It was so flavorful, nice, pickled veggies, crisp, sourdough bread, smoked fish dips, and of course sardines. The wedge salad was also so good. It was refreshing and crunchy while also being filling this is a great spot to sit outside and enjoy the weather with a beer or head to the bar for some playful banter with a cold one. They do have ample seating, indoor and outdoor, and they also have a second floor as well with friendly service. ”

“ Years and years ago I lived at 19th and Federal. I remember a time before the Sardine bar. Even now it's kind of an island out there. I've been here a bunch over the years and went again tonight. I was really impressed to see their prices are still decent. Everyone else has jacked their $$$ post COVID. Here you can still get a huge BBQ tofu Bah Mi for $14. Which is what I did! If you're dining in you can go courtyard, upstairs, downstairs. Seems like they have servers designated to each area which is really nice. I think it ensures each area is taken care of. My wife remembers having an amazing fake chicken sandwich here like four years ago. It left an impression. ”
