Is Philly’s Oldest Bar The Ultimate Match Maker?

from City Cast Philly · host City Cast

June marks the start of wedding season, and what better place to kick things off than at McGillin’s Olde Ale House — Philly’s oldest bar and maybe the best place to find love. Tucked down an alleyway in Center City, this historic pub has been the backdrop for countless love stories – 200 couples and counting. We’re revisiting a conversation our host, Trenae Nuri, had with Chris Mullins Jr., the owner of McGillin's, about the bar’s “Love Letters Book,” a collection of names and memories from the hundreds of couples who met here. Plus, you’ll hear three meet-cute stories from couples who found their partners in the City of Brotherly Love.  Get Philly news & events in your inbox with our newsletter: Hey Philly Call or text us: 215-259-8170 We’re also on Instagram: @citycastphilly Advertise on the podcast or in the newsletter: citycast.fm/advertise
