Hilltown Tavern - Fairmount

Nice neighborhood pub with a good drink selection. Menu had lots of standard pub food and everything hits the spot. Many TVs behind the bar and elsewhere to watch sports and such. Great to sit at the bar or a table, or even outdoor seating as well. Have been twice and both times the burgers were cooked nicely, and good quality toppings on em. Fries are fairly good and decently seasoned. Pretty good hang out spot and nicer overall than some other bars in this neighborhood. Thanks

No, just no. I am a foodie and I should have known not to trust the Google reviews. Everything we ate... not good. The vibe is fine, as you would expect with dark wood and sports on the TVs.The service was okay. No real complaints about that, but the food was wayyyyy off the mark.

We went here for the Chelsea Liverpool game. The place was open early for the game and also served breakfast. We really enjoyed the breakfast. The portions were large, seasoned well and good taste overall. We got the loaded tots and the Hilltown omelette. We also got the Irish coffee and mimosa which were very good! The place had a lot of seating and many tvs. The bartender was super nice and we had a really nice time here.

Was in the area and stumbled across this tavern. There are two entrances to the tavern and you seat your self. The service is decent and they check in on you pretty frequently. I had the Parmesan garlic fries and the Buffalo wings: the fries were on the greasier. The Buffalo wings were delicious. You get 10 wings and they are all fried and seasoned properly. I definitely would come back for the wings and to try other items on their menu.

We visited Hilltown a whim after going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and we weren't disappointed. I have a toddler and I would say this place is not for kids that small, but that kids Mac and cheese was delicious. My kid crushed it and I'm not going to lie I had a taste of it and it was so good. It was real Mac and cheese! It came with fries and here is where the only food problem came in. The fries were raw. Like they touched grease for a second to brown and got taken out. The middle wasn't even remotely cooked. I also had fries as I had fish n chips, which were also raw. The fish however was cooked perfectly and quite frankly was delicious. My husband got the Sheppard pie and again no complaint just tender beef and perfect mashed potatoes and gravy. But the best thing I had was the Irish lemonade!! Yall go get a couple of these!!! It's an alcohol based drink that was so dang good. I had three. So good y'all!

Came to happy hour drinks with a friend SUPER hungry and knew a burger and fries would be necessary! Hilltown is a great neighborhood bar with no nonsense bartenders and a good pub-style menu. From fried favorites to flights and a great beer list of local favorites, it is easy to see how easy it would be to become a regular here. The Hilltown burger was the salty, savory end of day pick me up that I needed. Covered in caramelized onions and cooked to perfection, I love that it was served in a cute Irish "newspaper" and service was speedy.I look forward to the next time I get to stop by and would recommend for a casual happy hour or evening out!

Awesome place Great atmosphere and food. Service was tremendous... I'll go back every time in Philly

Had fish and fries. Delish large serving. Can't wait to have it again. Husband had a flat bread pizza that was good. Very good service and atmosphere.

My husband and I went there recently with our child. The waitress took forever to come over. She took out orders including a couple of beers. The beers never came out and our child's dinner came out with two chicken fingers. We paid $8 for two chicken fingers - what a ripoff. Out beers and food still hadn't come out and our child was getting fussy so my husband opted to go inside and pay for the food and leave. Finally the food came and we scrambled to pack up. The food was subpar and although the waitress was apologetic, it was not a great experience due to the lack of care and consideration we received.

Hilltown is our favorite local spot in fairmount. The staff is very friendly and welcoming! There's nothing on the menu that I haven't liked. I highly recommend the disco fries or the nachos. They also have amazing wings! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
