Had a wonderful lunch at McNally’s! It was my first time here, but it has a lot of charm and character, and so I can see why this place has so many regulars. Delicious sandwiches, and a great beer selection! I would absolutely suggest for anyone looking for a no-thrills restaurant.

It was a nice small location. The food was okay. I tried this sandwich called the schmitter and it wasn’t that bad. The coleslaw and chili were great and I had a carrot cake for dessert.

I’ve been coming to McNally’s since 1975. When I walk in the door, I feel like I’m home. Friendly staff, great food ( although they are known for the Schmitter, my personal favorite is an Italian grinder, washed down with a Guinness). I don’t live in Philly, but when in town, I’m going to McNally’s!

A colleague from Philly recommended this restaurant to us during a business trip. When we arrived, I looked at the menu and tried to find something semi-healthy to order. But, our colleague said you have to get “The Schmitter”, because that’s what this place is known for. Honestly, if I had not been told that, I would have never ever ordered that item, because it didn’t sound appetizing to me. However, I always say, “when in Rome…”, so I decided to go for it. I’m not kidding you when I say it was delicious. Totally not my style of food, because it’s dripping with cheese and sauce, fat and carbs, but oh my gosh, it was fabulous! I only wish I could have tried it on a cold snowy day instead of in the midst of the summer swelter, because it seems like a perfect comfort style pub food sandwich when coming in from a blustery day. If I ever have to come here in the winter, I definitely want to eat here again!

I came back to McNallys for the first time in 34 years. Used to go here in my teens and 20s. It hasn’t changed! The BEST cheesesteaks. The BEST (family run and friendly) service. Impeccably clean and just the most incredible tavern. Love it!!!

One star is overshooting. Had horrible interaction from the owner who displayed awful behavior towards our guests who traveled up to 2 hours to be with us. We moved our party of 12 down the street to Adelina’s where we spent hundred’s of dollars and had great service from our bartender Brody.

I’ve been hearing about the legendary Schmitter for over a year. Tried to go months ago but they were closed on a Tuesday. The day finally came! If you’re going for the Schmitter (which you should be) order the long roll version. It’s just better. Yes it’s over $18. Yes you may not be able to finish. Topped it off with a nice IPA. Love the old school feel of this place, too.

The service here was great. The food was okay. We paid $20 for a cheesesteak that was “subpart.” It’s just hard for me to justify paying $20 for an average-taste sandwich like what I had. I also wish they had French fries but that’s okay. I can understand why. They don’t have a fryer on site.

In town for work and always looking for amazing local spots to eat so a co worker said this was a must try spot. Welp there it is the famous “Schmitter” and OMG this probably is thee best sandwich I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating EVER. If you don’t know the history on this sandwich you should google it. Pretty cool little story. Cool local spot and our server Liz was the best. Definitely on my list to come back to when I’m in Philly.

We eat here a few times a year, so we’re not “regulars”. But on our last visit on a Wednesday, I felt like a real outsider at a club for locals. The new dining room was full, and there’s some visiting between tables and lingering after all drinks are finished. I felt more welcome in the smaller space before the expansion. That said, the food is very good.
