The Olde Bar, located in Philadelphia's landmark Old Original Bookbinder's, is a contemporary oyster bar and cocktail lounge steeped in the city's nautical and culinary traditions. Serving oysters on the half shell, alongside a smart menu of modern reimaginings of traditional bar snacks and a comprehensive cocktail and spirit list, The Olde Bar is at once a tribute to the city's storied past and an updated version of one of our most beloved dining spaces. We're paying homage to the original traditions that made Bookbinder's a landmark in Philadelphia. It's an important responsibility to live up to the history of the building and the expectations for the space. We're going to do our best to recreate the nostalgia of that place and time, but with our own spin. - Chef Jose Garces Join us for dinner or stop in for happy hour to enjoy buck-a-shuck oysters, $5 bar snacks, and drink specials!The Olde Bar, located in Philadelphia's landmark Old Original Bookbinder's, is a contemporary oyster bar and cocktail lounge steeped in the city's nautical and culinary traditions.
