Chef Jonathan McDonald, who formerly turned out wacky molecular gastronomy fare at Snackbar, is now making uncomplicated but utterly delicious bar food at Pub & Kitchen. One part English tavern, one part gastropub, P&K serves up burgers and onion rings upgraded with top - notch ingredients. The dining room is so polished and inviting, it’s hard to believe it was most recently the dingy, dive - y Chaucer’s.

After walking the streets with friends for close to 30 minutes we finally found Pub & Kitchen. The place has no sign!!! We asked a girl on the corner where P&K is.. she laughed and pointed to the front door. Best meal I have had in a long time. Gnocchi is amazing and great beer selection. Nice menu with a great focus on fresh ingredients.

Review
earlier reviews of pricing are unwarranted, had many dishes from the outstanding burger to a scallop dish with Ramps and Morels that was perfect. It was obvious they put care into the dishes and ingredients. I love the bar though, the staff is very friendly and inviting. I went in for a birthday and not sure how they found out but they gave us champagne to celebrate. I love it.

I love this place, and the prices are in-line for any restaurant of this quality. Definitely check it out, especially for the brunch.

This place is top-notch and the attention to detail (for a casual spot!) is amazing. The scene is trendy and cool but low-key and laid back. I love the food and especially the brunch - Best Brunch around - you gotta try the home made cured salmon plate with soft pretzel....yummmmm! Omelets are perfect too.

I have to agree that it is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. Service isn't great, but OK. Our waitress kept trying to clear plates when we were still very obviously eating. Food was good, a bit pricey. Am not sure if we will go back. Menu a bit limited.

Read another review about prices. Not sure where they went. The neighborhood doesn't seem economically repressed and the prices are right for any spot in Philly. Great atmosphere.
