Philadelphia Cocktails?

[jpschust]

All, sorry for the quick post here, but I'm headed to Philly for work today (kind of last minute). Is there anywhere doing great cocktails? Ideally classic cocktails, though I'll take some newer stuff as well.

Southwark indeed. They have an impressive rye collection. I dropped off a bottle of my sassafras bitters there. I think they've been using them for Old Fashioneds. They have a bottle of Plymouth Navy gin (100 proof) behind the bar too. I heard good things about Amada on Chesnut. Their cocktails are named after Almodovar films.

If you're still in town tomorrow (Wednesday), I'll be back at work behind the bar at Chick's (614 South 7th Street). I'd be happy to mix you up either something classic or one of my own variations of a classic.

Southwark is an excellent suggestion. It's where I go when I don't want to mix it myself. Kip and George will take good care of you.
