    This is a great place for a cozy group or out-of-town guests. The atmosphere is lovely, and the noise level not bad. We had a corner table for two in the front room upstairs, and it was not hard to carry on a conversation. The menu offers a wide variety of proteins, and the portions are good.

    Wonderful neighborhood gem. The atmosphere is unusual and perfect while the staff is amiable and helpful. Highly recommend trying this restaurant and making a fun go to pub stop. Food is not your average so must be open minded. Cocktails were spot on.

    We were visiting Philadelphia and looking for a nice place with some atmosphere to enjoy an evening dinner. The Dandelion hit all the right chords. The pub is behind a large wooden door within a pair of wonderful old former houses. The inside is divided up into nice rooms with character in keeping with an old English pub. We had wonderfully crafted cocktails, dinner and dessert for a bill that did not break $200. The staff were welcoming and on their game. Excellent overall. A true treasure for locals and visitors alike.

    This has become one of my favorite places to go for special occasions. The relaxed atmosphere coupled with the cool aesthetic makes this place special. The service is always top notch and the food never disappoints. It’s why this place is always bustling with people. I will continue to patronize this place with my favorite people on the most important days.
