McGlinchey's boasts some of the most famously taciturn bartenders in the city. In truth, they're a stubbornly resentful lot but somehow they come off as more amusing than annoying. With a large, square sit-around bar taking up most of the room, McGlinchey's serves inexpensive beer and offers many choices besides the lager, such as Boddington's, Stoudts and Flying Fish. Filled with the young and wasted, this is a place where strangers meet and greet, throw back a dozen drinks and then wake up next to each other. Nightlife-loving Philly locals have all put in time here; there's something undeniably appealing about a place filled with ghosts of happy hookups past. Don't be surprised if you spy the human equivalent of Barney Gumble (the perpetually-drunk guy from 'The Simpsons') perched precariously on one of the barstools.
