Get to Finn McCool's Now to Try the All-New Bar Bites and Hoptails

Finn McCool's, the Center City mainstay, has revamped its bar program in a big way. We’re talking new bar bites, new happy hour, new cocktails and unique hoptails.

The $6 bar bites menu is perfect to satisfy a quick craving any time of day. You don’t have to wait for happy hour to roll around to order off this menu. The bar bites menu is complete with a dozen savory options like Fried Pickles, Buffalo Deviled Eggs, Seared Brussel Sprouts, Irish Nachos, Mac & Cheese Bites and more. This menu is available from open til 12 AM, every day.

And, of course, you’ll need something to wash down your bars bites. Finn McCool's has 17 taps of great craft and domestic options. If you’d like something a little stronger, try one of Finn’s creative hoptails. The Stella Hoptail features Stella Artois, Grey Goose and a splash of sour. You could also opt for the Cider Hoptail, Jack Cider with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Fire Whiskey, or Guinness Hoptail, Guinness with Bacardi Oakheart Spiced Rum.

You could also give the Saints Fashion, Unwinder or Bacardi Pop cocktails a try. The Saints Fashion features Woodford Reserve, St. Germain, cherry bitters, muddled cherry and orange and a splash of soda while the Unwinder mixes Cazadores Blanco with St.Germain, lime juice and simple syrup. The Bacardi Pop features Bacardi Superior, Bacardi Razz, a splash of sour, Blue Curacao and grenadine.

If you do happen upon Finn McCool's during happy hour, you’ll be greeted with $4 house wines, $4 well drinks and $4 drafts. And that’s not $4 select drafts, either. All of Finn’s 17 drafts are $4 between 5 and 7 PM, Monday through Friday. A $6 appetizer menu, separate from the $6 bar bites menu, is also offered during happy hour. This menu features tasty apps like Cheesesteak Spring Rolls, Pulled Pork Sliders and the Hot Dog and Fried Vegetable of the Day.

Finn McCool's is open Monday–Friday, 11 AM–2 AM and Saturday–Sunday, 12 PM–2 AM. Happy hour runs Monday through Friday, 5–7 PM.
