About Post Haste
Behind a front window painted with blocky black-and-white lettering, a long, wood-panelled bar room runs back to a fireplace dressed in flowers and lit in violet. The back bar is enormous, stacked floor to ceiling with bottles, and the drinks list matches it: creative house cocktails and a dirty martini that reviewers keep calling perfect. The kitchen cooks from local farms and the menu credits its cooks by name; dishes like late-summer tomato toast and Lebanon bologna with melon read as Pennsylvania as often as modern. Small plates are the strength, and several reviewers find the mains small for the price. On Sunday diners set their own price for food, with tax and a 20 percent tip still charged on list price. It opens 5 PM to midnight Wednesday through Saturday and 5 to 10 PM on Sunday, closed Monday and Tuesday. Google reviewers rate it 4.7, and Time Out named it among the best bars in Philadelphia in 2025.
