A cross between a dive bar, tavern, and a lounge, The Dolphin is South Philly’s beloved night-time destination. Before reopening in 2013, it was a legendary go-go bar and the first stop for sailors coming into port at the Navy Yard (yikes!). Today, The Dolphin offers excellent dance music, great drinks, and unforgettable events.
