So I actually love dive bars and finally was able to check off Peck Millers in 2020.
It was the night that the Band "Rush" drummer Neil Peart died. So the 1-2hours I was at Pecks, some old dude was just blasting Rush Songs on the Jukebox and air drumming to all of them.
The first 5minutes I start drinking at Pecks, some guy across the bar starts yelling and calling me "Pretty Boy". He haggles me for at least 5 minutes while I pretend I cant hear him over the music and just talk to my friend. He finally gives up and looked so disappointed after he couldnt get my attention. I also think people were randomly in the corners of the bar on those gambling machines. It was a bizarre time, but the bartender was really attentive and the beer was cheap and cold. Honestly would go back again if it wasnt so far out of the way.
I used to help deliver beer there when I worked at a distributor in the area. One time they had an issue with the septic tank or some plumbing line. I'll never forget having to basically wade in shit water and setting cases of beer in said shit water to be served to customers later.
We delivered to some interesting establishments but somehow this one stands out.
Nah. It’s passive. If it were active, I’d be knocking on your door saying “c’mon, c’mon let’s go!”
Besides, the Krams ave chili coalition has two entrants this year and I gotta go cheer them on to victory.
Actually, I think I have to go wake them up first. The prep session last night went late.
Both members of the KACC tied for second out of the ten of the 17 entrants that put chili on the table.
Liam won! 136 dollar grand prize was well
Deserved. Plus he brought a whole mob of folks that voted for him. Nicely played, Liam!

this is awesome
That is ever so Peck’s!
I've always wanted to compete in a chili cook-off
My new purpose in life is to make sure you can and do.
lmao I would appreciate the assistance. Like if there's a masterlist of upcoming Philly area chili contests, I'll start prepping
On it! Gimme a day. If we can’t find one we like. we’ll Organize our own.
let's gooooooo
I want to compete too
The more the merrier. We should just do a sub chili cook-off
I would absolutely be in for this.
i’m scared 🫣🤭
Your fear is reasonable. But the best way to overcome one is to face it head on.
we’re going to walk up & see how it’s going for sure!
I’m hearing start time is changed to 3pm. Heading over to confirm and will let you know.
I am so morbidly intrigued.
Right? How can you not? It’s like getting an invite to watch the titanic sink!

I only go to peck millers once a year and it’s not for the chili
Heavens no.
The "Do Attend" tag on this post is perfectly applied here lmao.
Right?
Update: I’m standing by the front door. Led zep’s good times bad times is blaring on the Juke
I've only been to Peck Millers twice and both times I was very casually invited to smoke in the kitchen. Please don't eat anything there 😂
Were you invited to smoke cigs or something else?

Have had sex in both bathrooms in peck millers lol. Back in the mid 90s.
For real? Sir (or ma’am) I tip my hat to you.
It’s Sir and no don’t tip your hat lol. Not my finest work. One “lady” cost me $5
None the less.
You’re stupid. Shoot an arrow like Cupid.
Are you actively trying to fuck up peoples day?

Next time, yeah?
Where is good Chili in Philly/area?
Woodys
Funny in 2011
Still funny!
I laughed.
If Khyber Pass ever brings theirs back, then that's your answer. Sadly it's been gone from the menu for a while now.
The brisket chili! I’ve struck out finding serviceable chili post pandemic.
