Nodding Head

A first class micro-brewery in a second floor location

J. Fidance for GPTMC

Despite its location in the heart of Center City, Nodding Head is actually a hidden gem. Venture up to its second floor location on the 1500 block of Sansom Street and you’ll be very glad you did.

Nodding Head brews its own beers to go along with its excellent, gastro-pub fare. Standard pub fare is taken up a notch with extra attention to detail, local ingredients and some of the best fries in the city. Other menu highlights include fresh fish and vegetarian and vegan options. Expect generous portions and affordable prices.

While the kitchen can certainly hold its own, the brewery has won more beer competition awards than it can hang on its walls. Beers here are brewed seasonally and in plain view. Among Nodding Head’s dozens of styles: Grog, BoHo Pils, Golden Ale and Son of Swami, all of which compliment the kitchen’s excellent burgers, Belgian-style mussels and everything else.

Nodding Head is a sibling restaurant of Monk’s Cafe and Fergie’s Pub and a cousin restaurant of Grace Tavern. All four of these establishments are great neighborhood bars where you’re guaranteed to have a great meal in good company.
