If you are looking for a decent bar/restaurant experience, I would steer clear of Blue Dog. I live in the area, just a few miles away, and over the years, this place has gone done hill. The bar itself is filthy! When you order a beer, drink, glass of wine, etc.. you almost always get a dirty glass with lipstick on it! The food is awful, and is consistently way to salty, even for things that should not be like that, like soup. The food is not consistent either. One day, you get it and it will be great. So you come in a few days later, and order the same thing, and it looks and tastes like my 3 year old put it together. They are always changing their beer selection which is good, but are typically running out of liquor or wine. Often, the beer is bad, like in the hand pumps they have. i doubt their lines are clean, so often, beer tastes skunked. So if you enjoy a beer and a shot, hope you are just okay with only a crappy, light beer. There is a liquor store next to the location, and they won’t go out

The draft beer was excellent. I loved the Tetley Pub Ale, very good. Do not waste your time on the food. The waitress got our order wrong, forgot to deliver the appetizer, and the kitchen provided cold food. We sent it back only to get microwaved food in return. The waitress informed us that she microwaved it herself.

This is the second Blue Dog location (the other being the Pub in Lansdale). This location is more family-family friendly. I also think the food is better at this location, and the food is only okay here. They have a couple of things that are very good (the Tuna bits), and others that are just lousy. The service is never very good. The only reason they get a decent rating is because of their selection...which is very good.

Another thanks to Whaleman for entering to help me find good beer on my recent move. Impressive selection since it didn’t look like a place where I could find a Dogfish Head 120, fort, d’extra, Stone 06, old guardian, weyerbacher, rogue, and many others. Some prices were too pricey (Stone Im Russian - $9) but others were good (DFH Fort - $16, cheapest I’ve found). I’ll be stopping down quite a bit.

Its a bar. But a bar with decent food and a great beer selection. Good choices on tap and a great take out. Its a good place to go with non craft people because they probally won’t notice the good beer they have there and think its just a bar.

Thanks to whaleman for rating this place or I would have never known it existed. Only went for the take out beer. Great selection of all styles and you can make up your own six pack. I was able to find Three Floyds, Thirsty Dog, Rogue among a bunch of others. Price wasn’t too bad, except for the Dogfish Head 120 IPA for more than 10 bucks per 12 oz. bottle (I didn’t get it this time). Since I live within 25 minutes of this place, I’ll have to go back and sample food and drafts.
