The Plough & the Stars has held its spot on Chestnut Street in Old City since 1997, run by Marion and Jerome just steps from Independence Hall. It's built as a proper Irish pub — pints, a kitchen turning out Irish staples, and a room meant for lingering.
Live trad music sessions run weekly, and the pub draws a dedicated crowd for Celtic FC matches, screens on for every game. On the food side, the Shepherd's Pie has built a following among regulars and delivery customers alike.
Upstairs space is set aside for private parties, and the pub has settled into its role as an Old City fixture — a welcoming stop for neighborhood regulars and visitors passing through.
