McCusker's Tavern, South Phila.

Post by rjwhite »

Right at the corner of Shunk and 17th Streets, a block away from Girard Estates.

Been family-owned and in the same spot for 40 years, this New Year's Eve.

Very reasonable prices, not a huge beer/liquor selection, but an excellent neighborhood joint when you just want a couple of drinks and to sit awhile.

It's a little south from me, but if I ever get over my fear of SEPTA I may have to check it out.

Wait a minute ... You're a Temple Student, and you're afraid of SEPTA???

Good God!

They have too many buses and subways and shit. I can't keep that shit organized. I have a fear or getting lost, or being out too late and being stranded somewhere.
