Philly Music Venues: The Manhattan Room

Where: 15 W. Girard Ave. [map], Philadelphia, PA, United States, 19123

For a city that's constantly trying to distinguish itself from NYC, it's unclear why Philadelphia went with the name The Manhattan Room for its newest hipster bar and music venue.

Whatever the reasoning, the spot has quickly established itself on the Philly music scene. Set in the increasingly hip-but-still a little sketchy Fishtown neighborhood, "The M-Room" is a new go-to spot for the city's indie rock fans.

The venue hosts live events every Tuesday through Sunday. The schedule is heavy on local acts like Johnny Action Figure and Red Ox, but also includes DJ dance nights, art openings and indie film screenings. In addition to a healthy roster of cheap brews, there's also a dinner menu of burgers, sandwiches and full plates.

    I think M Room might still have the DJ Deejay dance party "Madonna Michael Prince" (though it's also at The Barbary and on the boat The Moshulu). Probably one of the better nights of dancing in my life.
