Fishtown Taps returns with a summerlong weekly happy hour at over 20 bars and restaurants

With Center City SIPS back in session, Fishtown bars, breweries, and restaurants are also opening their doors for a summerlong happy hour of their own. For its second year, Fishtown Taps returns with over two dozen establishments, including R&D, Murph’s, and Fette Sau, that showcase the neighborhood’s diverse culinary scene.

Patrons can enjoy $5 beers, $6 wines, $7 signature cocktails, discounted appetizers, and small-plate specials at participating locations from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. every Tuesday from June 11 to Oct. 29.

Deals on food and drink also include $3 Yuenglings at Fishtown Tavern; $4 chicken legs with spicy slaw at Fette Sau; $8 birria ramen tacos at LMNO; $8 nonalcoholic spritz and piña colada cocktails at R&D; $5 20-ounce glass of Reading Premium beer at Interstate Drafthouse; and an all-day draft and burger for $15 at Front Street Café.

“Last year, we introduced ‘Fishtown Taps’ as a way to bring people to Fishtown and Kensington during the week with the incentive of specialty cocktails, beer, and wine,” Marc Collazzo, Fishtown District’s executive director, said in a statement. “We are excited to once again to see the street filled with new shoppers and visitors.”

This year, Fishtown District has partnered with local app FYND, founded by Max Thalheimer, to keep visitors informed about specials and updates throughout the summer. Download the app, click on TAPS, and find all of the beers on tap, wine, cocktails, and food included in each week’s event.

The Fishtown Taps season kicks off at 5 p.m. on June 11.
