Best Live Music Restaurants in Far Northeast Philadelphia

This has quickly become one of my favorite places. The food is delightful. The staff is amazing. The atmosphere is greatly unique. For an intimate dining experience of two to a larger group of friends out for some drinks and dinner The Cage offers it all. The main dining area includes booths, high tops, the bar, and a caged table for a bigger party that seems to sit 8-10 people. The main area is decorated in what I would say is the Garden of the Hesperides meets Wonderland. There is a separate dining room as well that is tucked away from the noise that has a beautiful fireplace and a large crafted canoe suspended from the ceiling. The drink menu plays off Greek mythology and the food menu offers a variety of dishes to suit even the most picky eaters pallet.

Our experience was a fixed menu, with multiple choices, and everything was fabulous. We went for Valentine’s Day, and it was a very nice experience with excellent food at a reasonable price. The only issue was that the restaurant sent us a message about an hour before saying that there would be no alcohol service, but we were welcome to BYOB. Something to be aware of if you book this place. Not sure why they did not have alcohol that night or whether they don’t have a liquor license. The nice thing was, however, they did allow us to bring our own wine.

Went to The Copper Crow for a lunch date with a friend, and let me tell you—it did NOT disappoint. The vibe was just right—modern, stylish, but still cozy. The warm lighting, cool bar setup, and overall atmosphere made it feel like the perfect spot to kick back and enjoy a great meal.Now, let’s talk food. My friend had the sea bass with risotto, and it was next-level good—perfectly cooked, flaky, and packed with flavor. I went for the seafood pasta, and wow...fresh, well-seasoned, and just the right amount of sauce to bring it all together. Every bite was a win.But what really made the experience? The service. Our waitress was amazing—super attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of without being overbearing. You could tell she actually cared about making our meal a great one.If you’re looking for a spot with fire food, great service, and a chill but elevated vibe, The Copper Crow is it. Definitely adding this to my go-to list.

It was my first time there and I’ll definitely be back next week. Great atmosphere.

The food was served quickly. Everything was well prepared and very tasty.
