Bars Near Embassy Siutes?

I am staying at the Embassy Suites in City Center for a few days. My wife and I are looking for a few fun bars to visit in walking distance of the hotel. We love sports bars and pubs and we are also hoping that the subway to get to the ballpark is close to the hotel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again

Bars Near Embassy Siutes?

The Public House is right around the corner from you hotel in Two Logan Square, near the corner of 18th and Cherry. http://www.publichousephilly.com/

You want to get the Broad St. line at 15th and Market which is about 7-9 block walk from your hotel, not far.

15th %26amp; Market is about 4 blocks from your hotel. Walk downstairs by the clothespin and follow the signs. There is actually a way to go underground most of the way, but you%26#39;d get lost down there.

Since you are staying at the Embassy Suites, if you have a chance, check out the ';video wall'; in the new Comcast Center located at 17th and Arch (tallest building in Philadelphia)

OK....Now i see which one you are staying at....Here are a few selections......not knowing your style/taste..

McGillin%26#39;s Olde Ale House

Fergie%26#39;s Pub

Nodding Head Brewery %26amp; Rstrnt

Tir Na Nog - Philadelphia

if you have questions....feel free to ask

Thank you everyone for the help. I will try to hit the suggested bars in the area (hope its a safe area) and see which ones have interesting bar shirts for sale (small collection). We may try to drive over to the Reading Terminal and the Italian Market during the day but bars at night. Going to take the train from hotel to see the Phillies on the other night. Thanks again and feel free to add more comments if you have them.

If you%26#39;re into sports bars, a place called ';Field House'; opened recently just across from Reading Terminal market. TV%26#39;s on the tables, lots of flat screens and I hear the food is good too.

In addition to owlyn%26#39;s directions to the ballpark (subway), follow the orange signs to the Broad Street Line, take it south to Pattison Ave / Sports Complex - it%26#39;s the last stop. Purchase your to/from tokens prior as it will be a bear after the game if you don%26#39;t.

I second Public House and Tir Na Nog, 2 great places close by. Although, if you get adventurous, you can walk down pretty much any block and find a bar :)

Don%26#39;t drive to the Reading Terminal market. It is within easy walking distance ( 4 or 5 blocks) of your hotel, parking on the street there is almost impossible, and the garages are VERY expensive.

You could even walk to The Italian Market (other visitors have done it) as long as the weather is nice and you are in decent shape. It%26#39;s about 1.5 miles from your hotel. Parking around there can be tough, especially on Saturdays.

And if you really want to see another side of philly...

Locust Bar.....10th and locust

Dirty Franks.....347 S 13th St

but do not miss McGillens....

McGillin鈥檚 Olde Ale House threw open its doors the year Lincoln was elected president. That鈥檚 shortly after the Liberty Bell cracked and long before ground was broken for Philadelphia City Hall. The beer taps have been flowing since 1860 -- making it the oldest continuously operating tavern in Philadelphia. It has outlasted Strawbridge鈥檚, the Civil War and even Prohibition.
