Good evening Google family. My very first time visiting this location of Chickie and Pete’s. I have patronized the location in Drexel Hill, PA. This location of Roosevelt Blvd is huge!!! I was seated when I arrived, my reservation was 3:15 pm. which I booked on the Open Table app. I took a Lyft there and I took a Lyft home. Didn’t wish to deal with the parking there and in my block. I would not have had a parking spot in my block when I arrived back home. I was given a table and then they switched me to another table for one, since I was by myself. Being in a sports bar and watching the Eagles game is a true experience! It is nothing quite like it. You have to be there. They sing the Eagles fight song every time we score, it is truly a classic moment and I enjoyed every moment of it. I cannot wait to go back next week for the next game against the LA Rams. But I will not be coming back to this location. I wanted to go to the South Philly location but its so hard to book, its already booked up for the LA Rams game. Chickie and Pete’s makes a killing!!! Shannen was our server and she was so kind, nice and patient. I know that I drove her crazy!!! She was too polite to say so. I gave her a good tip. I ordered vegetable soup, a salad with the salmon and a seafood boil and a lemonade. Everything was good but if the boil did not have the red sauce on it, it would have been ideal!!! The red sauce made it hot!!! and I do not like hot or spicy food. I had ordered mussels and shrimp. So good but it was too hot because of the red sauce. I wanted to send it back but it was too late. Never again will I order that!!! I did not finish eating my order and I did not wish to take it home. Also I was seated outside and when there is food on the table, here comes the horrible flies, it is a nightmare!!! I got so tired of shooing flies away!! I asked Shannen to take my plates because I grew so tired of the flies!!! The rest rooms were clean. I could not understand why they didn’t have more restrooms. As big as that place is, they should have had two separate restrooms for women and men. There are four stalls in the women’s rest room. The Eagles won and beat the Kansas City Chiefs, thank Goodness!!! They are winless so far, ha ha Patrick Mahomes!!! I had a great Eagles experience and I look forward to going to another location next week to watch the LA Rams game. Good night, workout, be healthy, fit and Fabulous!!!! My tab was $79.98.

We had an amazing time at Chickie’s & Pete’s celebrating our friend’s birthday! The atmosphere was upbeat and fun, the staff was friendly and on point, and the food especially the crabfries and seafood was absolutely fantastic. Everyone went out of their way to make it a special night, and we couldn’t have asked for better service or a better place to celebrate. Highly recommend for any occasion, great food, great drinks, great energy!

There’s a few things in life you can rely on. Chickie’s crab legs are one of those things. But not lately. The crab legs seemed old very old small tasteless and not worth the effort to get out the shell. Also I’ve never been to a crab house that didn’t have crab crackers. I had to tell my server that if I couldn’t get a cracker I didn’t want my order. Overall ver disappointing

Oh. My. Goodness. Gracious. PLEASE, if you have any respect for yourself or tastebuds, do NOT ever — and I mean NEVER – get the crab and street corn nachos. I truly believe I felt the inside of my mouth start to rot out after one bite; my friend and I shared a moment of genuine, unstrained, Stephen-King level horror when we had one singular chip. The putrid fumes released from the slop made us gag to the point we had to move it; we didn’t DARE to bring it into my car or house, since we are far too broke to fumigate our houses. Like the non-food wasters we are, we were DESPERATE to perservere; we hoped, nay PRAYED, that maybe it was singular element of the nachos we could remove. Al’s, we’ve never been so wrong. Each component was worst than the last. Not to mention, this tragedy on our tongues cost TWENTY. U.S. DOLLARS. That’s more than almost ANY entree. I wanted to cry right there at the table.
The staff and crab fries are amazing, though!! Very comfortable environment for a fun and yummy meal, as long as you save yourself and loved ones and never even LOOK at the crab and street corn nachos.
I hope you listen to my warning, for everyone’s physical and mental health.

The last time we came to visit Chickie’s and Pete’s at this location was for the Eagles Super Bowl game back in February of this year. It was so nice to be back here with my son, who was also with me last time. It was an amazing experience. Even though this visit was during a regular work week on a Monday, I wasn’t sure what to expect in terms of the crowd. So, I made a reservation online through OpenTable, which was very easy to do. When I arrived, my table was all set and ready for us. The atmosphere for the evening felt really good.
I absolutely love Chickie’s and Pete’s. Even though they don’t have a vegan menu, they do have a few options that can be modified to be vegan. This time, I ordered the shrimp tacos but with impossible meat instead of shrimp and without the dressing. They were absolutely delicious. We also ordered a side of sweet potato fries with hot honey. They were excellent, but they reduced the portion slightly due to costs. So, we ended up ordering another order of fries. My son and I are both big guys, so one portion wasn’t enough. So, we also ordered crab fries because you can never go wrong with Chickie’s and Pete’s crab fries.
My son ordered a chicken Parm sandwich with sharp provolone on an Italian roll and he said it was delicious. Our server was very friendly and I even had the pleasure of meeting Erin, the manager. She was absolutely wonderful and was there every step of the way to assist with anything we needed. She is a kind and caring person – a great manager who makes you feel like family. She should be a role model for other managers.
I was a bit surprised that many people left after halftime, resulting in a smaller crowd. But I understand it was a Monday night during a work week and it was a late game. The weekends are always packed at Chickie’s and Pete’s, so I totally get it. People have to work and get up early. Despite that, I absolutely love it here and can’t wait to come back again soon.

Very family friendly atmosphere. Great tavern/taphouse vibe. The whole family liked the crabbie fries. New England clam chowder and shrimp tacos were both good. We will definitely return next time we are in the area!

Reserved a table and it was ready when we got there. For appetizers, we went with of course crab fries and fried mozzarella. I went with the shrimp tacos and the place is also kid friendly with chicken tenders and pizza. Our server was great and went the extra mile and I would recommend going here to others.

Nice place. Crab fries are absolutely delicious. Lots of carbs and calories but worth it! To watch sports and drink a beer it is perfect.
