The Rook Manayunk

Super cute new restaurant/bar! The Philly Jawn burger was incredible, very unique...as was everything else we ordered. Really large beer and drink selection too. Outdoor patio/bar looks great, excited to come back at night! Friendly staff and quick service!

Love this place! Super close to home, great food and drinks and prices were very reasonable. Pat was our bartender he was super attentive and friendly and so was everyone else! So excited for this to be our new spot

It is a work in progress here on opening weekend but I’m excited by the potential.

If you judge purely on appearances and knew the old bar, it’s a easy five star. They really cleaned the place up. More than that, they modernized it as well. No more bar in the center. Exposed brick. Clean and clear lighting.

As for the food, it’s fairly price but the portions seem small. It’s a place you probably need to order two items per person.

Service is hard to judge. They were packed on my visits and seemed a bit understaffed. However, it is opening weekend and I’m confident they will work out the bugs.

We arrived the second night they opened and were not disappointed. Even though they were slammed, ran out of several food items, and the host didn’t show up, my friends and I had an incredible time. The bar was well stocked and our server, Esther, was amazing. She was honest, attentive, and hilarious. It’s off the beaten path of Manayunk’s main street, which is nice for us locals (I’ve lived here 4 months but whatever). Definitely a great place to check out!

Great atmosphere, great food and drinks. Highly recommended. Chris, the bar manager, was extremely friendly and had great customer service. If you're in the area looking for a great meal at a good price, definitely check this place out. Try the "Off The Rail" sandwich!
