The Dandelion Philadelphia Reviews
On a Saturday night we made reservations and came for
On a Saturday night we made reservations and came for dinner. The restaurant itself is a cute pub vibe. It seems like an old house becuase there's an upstairs with multiple rooms and the space is quite big compared to what it looks like outside.
In Philadelphia with my wife and daughter for a long
In Philadelphia with my wife and daughter for a long weekend and stopped by a cool pub near Rittenhouse Square. Dripping with charm, we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. My wife and daughter got burgers, which were amazing. I went with the Lamb Sheppard
My friend and I stopped by The Dandelion while in the area.
The ambiance was nice, and the service was good. However, the food lacked something for us. I ordered the salmon and it definitely left something to be desired. The salmon itself was cooked well, but the flavor was an insanely strong tomato base, and
Popped in for a pre dinner drink and snack.
Able to sit outside and have our fur baby join in. Service was quick and kind. Food was delish, highly recommend the whipped ricotta.
Great food, comfortable vibe
My wife and I are foodies and big Stephen Starr restaurant fans. We've been to many, but this is was our first time in Dandelion. As the pleasant hostesses greeted us and took us to the 3rd floor, we didn't realize this was the design based

We stopped here for dinner before a comedy show, around 8:15. When you step inside, it feels like you're transported to a British pub with a really cool room decorated with dogs everywhere. Dog curtains, dog figurines, dog pictures. The only way
Came here for brunch with friends.
Ordered the poached eggs with bubble & squeak. It was good! The egg was perfectly poached, and the sauce was good. Wasn't the biggest fan of the bubble & squeak though, but that might just be a personal preference. Would love to come bac

We came here for a late-night dinner (10pm) after a show at the Miller's--this spot was highly rated and recommended for late-night eats, and wow... it did not disappoint! First, can we talk buttahhhh? Perfectly salted, melt-in-your-mouth delic

The food was absolutely disgusting, haven't been able to get the horrible taste of the beef tartare out of my mouth since going. You would be much better off going to the love across the street, or honestly just not eating at all
Comfort food but not comfortable space
Friends recommended this place & what a delight. Very British. Nice ambiance -- dark woods, very pub-like, classic comfort food. It seemed casual rather than upscale but there were some dressed up people & several couples on dates. The d
So good we came back again!
We enjoyed our dinner at The Dandelion so much that we came back another evening during our stay in Philly. Everyone enjoyed their entrees- rabbit pie (yummy but rich), shepherd's pie (to die for!), fish & chips (delicious), tandoori chicken
Classic and Delicious!
This pub is very busy and appears to be a favorite of the locals in the area. We were able to get a reservation on a busy Thursday evening. Service was very friendly, quick , and accommodating. A member of our party changed their order at the last
Great spot for classic british pub food
Great british pub food! The tables were a bit small but the seating is in a very unique and interesting space. They were very accomodating on checking for allergies as well. Great selection of drinks. The food was delicious.
Birthday afternoon tea with some appetizers.
We went there for an afternoon tea for my Birthday. I am Irish so I had many Afternoon teas but this one was not good. Some of the sandwiches were not the usual ones and were not very good. The scones were nice but the desserts were not good. they w
What a lucky find! Highly recommend!
What a lucky find! I booked The Dandelion on a whim while looking for a spot to take an out-of-town friend, and I couldn’t have chosen better. The restaurant’s cozy ambiance, complete with the charm of a former family dwelling, made it feel warm
Expensive
Very small, crowded, food was average. Had the Chilled soup - very strong flavors and for me personally a little difficult to eat chilled with those flavors. then had the lamb shepherd pie - decent enough, not much lamb in it. Expensive for what you
Great place
All of our dishes were excellent, with the signature salad being the best, or maybe the like-you-are-in-London fish and chips. Great atmosphere and friendly service.
Best meal of the trip
Great atmosphere in an historic )looks like it anyway) former three story downtown home. Fantastic food. My wife went crazy over the beet salad. The deviled eggs and Tandoori Chicken were the best! Steak & Chips superb.
amazing.
loved everything about it. Perfect date night. Chris Vtrainers Personal Training

they cook a frozen beef patty and drizzle some brown sauce on it on a giant plate and charge $36. they like to pretend they are a fine dining establishment. they are a pub with high prices at best.

What's good here? Cocktails and mock tails and "2-for-1-sales" Tell the bartender "it's not a bender," and he'll pour a shot into the blender. For the bread and butter I used a knife as a spreader, not a cutter. The endive sa
Amazing! Had the rabbit pie and was terrific.
The best part in addition to the great pie was the decor and environment. As someone who absolutely loves London, this place brings you there and more. A must do in Philly.
Best fish and chips in 30 years
I love fish and chips. I have not had fish and chips this good in 30 years. The fish was thick and cooked perfectly. My sister had the salmon, it looked fabulous. My friend liked the Lamb Shepherd’s Pie.
Loads of food doesn't make a good dish better but it does
Loads of food doesn't make a good dish better but it does make a messy plate. The service depends on how you look; it feels kinda snobby in here when sitting solo at a high top table. In the dining room with a date, it is cozy. It is hard to tell if
Went to lunch & got the Dandy Burger & a Shirley temple.
The place is really cool and had cool seating and decorations. Our server was nice and accommodating for a friend who has allergies! The Shirley temple was missing cherries but was pretty good. The burger was also good but nothing mind blowing (even
Great atmosphere!
We had reservations about 3 weeks out. The place was extremely full, so I’d definitely recommend reservations. The service. Cocktails and entrees were fantastic. My husband had the Shepherds Pie and I had the Fish and Chips, it was cod, and they we
Stopped in for the afternoon tea special.
While $60 for tea, sandwiches, mini cheesecake, pastries & scones may seem a bit steep for two people, the quantity of food we were served far exceeded a similar helping we received at another outlet. And we had plenty to take home with us. The

Was recommended this place years ago and finally got to go check it out and I definitely would go back! Super cute interior with a great fireplace to hang around. Got the dandelion salad and split the steak with my friend and both were amazing! Serve
Nice cozy British-style pub.
We ordered the steak and chips and the bangers and mash. Both dishes were tasty, with nice portions. The bar offered a nice selection, the Old King Cold cocktail was a refreshing choice. Service was great and they offer scan to pay.
Fantastic service, atmosphere and food.
The duck and chicken liver parfait was the best thing I've ever eaten in my life. This is an absolute gem of a pub.
Arrived for our reservation and were a little disappointed
Arrived for our reservation and were a little disappointed to be placed at a tiny corner table just across from the Hostess station. However, we were quickly made comfortable by our waiter, Bryant. He managed to somehow make the space seem roomy. We

Ordered a black & tan and received a pint of mixed beer.
A black & tan is bass ale on the bottom half Guinness the top. I never order this at a bar because I don't expect it to be done right. But a pub? Owned by Starr? Ordered it for my daughter knowing it would be poured the way it should be. So disap
Ahh, The Dandelion.
One of philadelphias best. Love the tables, the decor, it makes you feel like you're in the house of an old money UK gentleman. The food is bangin. Lit steaks. Lit fries. Lit cheeseboards. I come here for my bday almost every year and am never disa

We saw this restaurant on the foodnetwork, Best Thing I ever ate. They focused on the fish and chips. I love fish and chips so we put this restaurant on our list of places to visit. So we are in Philly for the weekend so our first stop had to be T
Very special building inside.
Worth seeing for sure. Friendly service. I only went once and the food was terrible. We both ordered fish & chips. Honestly, the worst fish & chips I've ever had. The fish was one big piece of sogginess. Crispy exterior with an uncoo

Beautiful presentation and the most delicious burgers. Delicious cutlets and fresh burger buns The atmosphere is the best
Lovely British style pub
Lovely British style pub in Philly. The menu was lovely and the happy hour menu well worth it if you go early. We were seated by the door which was a bit breezy when people came in but the rest of the experience, atmosphere and food were lovely. The
Very good food, service was meh
Went out for dinner with a friend to Dandelion. The food was very good. We split the dandelion salad between the 2 of us and it was a good enough size for the both of us to get a decent sized portion per person before our main meal. I got the dandy b
Cozy atmosphere and excellent quality
Had dinner with friends at this restaurant. British oriented. Excellent quality and normal size portions. Service is fast and friendly.
Everything Was Just Dandy
The Dandelion was just around the corner from our hotel and we walked by it a few times on our way to here and there, admiring the building’s exterior. I’m not a fan of typical British pub food, so I wasn’t too keen on dining there. But after s
Good service and food
We went in spontaneously and didn't regret it. The food was delicious and the service attentive. For $80, we'd go back again.
Just go there ! All food is excellent and everything is top notch
Excellent rabbit pie! A big surprise to find this type of food in us. I loved it. The place is really nice and the staff is friendly.
Old World Charm
We stumbled in this restaurant for lunch. The menu is quirky, but the food is delicious! The entire experience was very fun and memorable. Would definitely recommend this gem!
The service was good but, beyond that, not much, unfortunately
I ordered what is their primary "pub" dish (after all, it's advertised on their marquee): English-style fish & chips, and was really disappointed. The taste was exceptionally bland at best and the overall presentation was far short of
We love The Dandelion!!!
Second visit. We love this place. Delicious modern English pub food. Cool modern upscale pub vibe. Attentive service. We just love it. Special place.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Dandelion Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Dandelion Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at The Dandelion Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Dandelion Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
