PHILLY SPORTS BAR
 
I am looking for a good sports bar/restaurant in Philadelphia, near 1776 Ben Franklin PKWY, to watch the KU / South Florida football game on ESPN Friday Night. Good food, reasonable drink prices, and a fun atmosphere are preferred, even if we have to taxi a bit to get there.

Probably a place that has plenty of TV's since the Phillies play that night also......

The reviews of this place are decidedly mixed

and I have absolutely no idea if the prices are reasonable, but the location is close and the TV screens are abundant.

Check out Chickie & Pete's in South Philly, you can take a cab there.

Chickie's & Pete's is a Philadelphia sports bar institution. I can't imagine what issues your girlfriend would have with it.
