Stopped by here for lunch this weekend and would not recommend it. There was nothing on the menu that wasn't deep fried and of the assortment that my group ordered, not a single item was enjoyable. Staff was friendly enough and the bar seemed decent, I'd just avoid lunch. I've heard good things about the food, but they must be talking about dinner. Blah.

I stopped here on a Saturday night after we had been waiting for almost 2 hours to get a table at Three Monkeys Cafe. Yelp reviews were decent, so we decided to try it out. Food was A-OK, my friend and I had burgers and my friend's husband had a club sandwich of some sort. No complaints really, just tasted like your typical run of the mill pub food. Now, the only reason I gave 1 star is because of the atmosphere. After dinner, we decided to grab a seat at the bar for some drinks. OH did I mention that it took over half an hour to get our check from dinner, because they were having trouble running credit cards (they claimed their wifi was down but were able to only run 1 card and not the others??) so they then asked us to use the ATM and pay in cash! It was almost like I was being punished with ATM fees because THEIR systems weren't working. Cool. Anyway, AFTER this whole debacle, we sat at the bar and ordered a couple beers, which the bartender/owner gave us for free because of the ordeal we just went through. We were totally cool up until this point, when we started playing music on the jukebox, and a group of older-aged patrons at the other end of the bar were making fun of us. To our complete shock, the bartender/owner was CHIMING IN and laughing right along with them!!! What kind of bar OWNER does that, to brand new patrons?? Not smart. We were so offended, that we promptly took back the tips we were leaving for him, and left the bar. We would have stayed and spent much more $ had the owner and his group of washed-up parents at the other end of the bar had been more respectful and weren't just completely making fun of us to our faces.

Great place, and the food is incredible! Try the Verne's wings. So good! Patrons are friendly. Staff are always very nice, with the exception of one bartender Bobby Q, wears bowling shirts all the time. Extremely rude if your not 50 or older if you catch my drift. If he's tending when you walk in go straight to the back for a table or head to Stadium bar down the street

I've been going to Dagwood's for YEARS!! One thing I've found is that the dining/drinking experience really depends on the help they've hired. Tonight, they dropped the ball. All I wanted was a small salad from the salad bar. I was charged for "SOUP and salad" AND the salad was old and had brown edges and their usual creamy Italian dressing was no where to be found. One of my dinner companions ordered a "double rum and coke" and was charged for two separate drinks. I know doubles are more but they shouldn't be DOUBLE the price. I've had waitresses there charge me for 3 meals when only two of us were there. If you want quicker service, ALWAYS sit at the bar btw...the waitresses in the back are slow or too busy catching a smoke outside to be bothered. The bartenders get it done though. I thought I found my fav spot in NE Philly but after tonight I think I'll keep on looking.

I don't want to kill them too bad, as I saw that the owner is a North Catholic alumni, but.....Stopped in Saturday 8/3/13 as my bud & I saw the "Crabs Today" sign, sat down & had a few beers & then asked what size crabs they had....they were small, definitely #2's ($3 ea), which I can deal w/ if they're heavy, but this is what put me off.....they were served C-O-L-D.....the bartender pulled a tub out of the fridge, picked one out, & dropped it on a tray, didn't even offer to take it to the kitchen to drop it in some boiling for a minute water to heat it up. (I guess maybe I should've asked for that to be done, but honestly, if you serve crabs, YOU DON'T SERVE THEM COLD!!!) I ate it, as I had a hankering for crabs,& it was OK, but the whole point of serving crabs is to serve them H-O-T, if I wanted to eat cold crab meat I could've gone to Costco & gotten a tub of Phillips jumbo lump. Maybe Saturday was an off night, & I have heard good things about their crabs, so I wanted to give them a shot, but I was NOT impressed @ all.... God, I miss Boncela's.....

I had a party here and it was very nice. The upstairs room is perfect for private parties. The owner told me that I had to pay for a minimum of 25 people to book a party. I invited 40 people, but we ended up having 15 people at the party. It was ok, though, because the price included a buffet of delicious fettucini alfredo, sausage and meatballs, roast beef, rolls, caesar salad, and fried chicken, as well as a 4-hour open bar! And our private bartender was so nice. I recommend this place for parties.

I can't believe that nobody has commented on how amazing their burgers are! I'm a fan of the American staple but let's face it burgers are pretty tough to screw up, that said dagwoods has nailed it. Everything is perfect, their burgers are amazing, nuff said. I would have included a photo of the delicious burger although and don't seem to have the patience or the willpower to snap a quick photo before I devour the burger.

When you want to feel among friends no matter what your age 21 to 101 Dagwood's is the place to go. Even the "guy " that wears Bowling shirts is friendly! You can watch a local sports game and all cheer along high five and have fun. Feeling more relaxed grab a table in the back and one of the amazing servers will take top notch care fo you along with serving up delish food both lunch and dinner. If it is not on the menu if they have it they will make it up for you. The chefs also make sure you are liking your meal ... This is a full service all around local place where everyone becomes a friend. Let Dagwoods hook you up with crabs!

Good solid food we picked up some wings and they were delicious. They were awesome on the phone. Packed lots of condiments and napkins. Wings were just the right amount if crispy!!!

I have mixed feelings for dagwoods. I love to come here once a month with my parents. I lo e the seafood and atmosphere. The soups are great, the flounder and shrimp are awesome. They cater to my mom's gluten allergy. The service is always amazing. Recenti they changed the menu which is why I'm having a change of heart about going. They made the menu smaller and I feel like they've cut out a lot of the items that I used to order. Over all its still a great place to have some drinks and seafood.

as my trip down memory lane continues, aka NE philly hangs, myself and a friend stopped in on a wed night. not knowing of the all you can eat crab thingy going on. i have never been an all you can eat kinda person, but when in rome? the place is cute. nice bar with local peeps. sinatra and rat pack art around. the waitress was so super sweet and helpful. the food was BANGIN". was not expecting that. waaaayyyyy too much food for me. crabs were great. it came with a bunch of other stuff. i ate so much, i couldnt breathe. the only reason its not a 5? they only take cash. there is an atm in there but if youre like me, it chaps your ass to pay a fee.

I don't go here that often, but this is a nice neighborhood pub/seafood restaurant. They have crabs in the summer pretty regularly, which I love. And their beer selection is good. Their staff is friendly. The clientele are neighborhood people, so you will find lots of middle-aged men and women hanging out here. It's pretty nice.
