Our Take
a.bar — Rittenhouse
a.bar is the Rittenhouse Square casual cocktail-and-snack offshoot from the celebrated a.kitchen team — a tight programme of seasonal drinks paired with a small American kitchen.
The cocktail menu rotates seasonally with about a dozen builds plus a strong wine-by-the-glass list. Kitchen does small-plates American: celebrated burger, charcuterie, vegetable plates. The room is wood-panelled with a long zinc bar.
Reserve via Resy. Bar seats walk-in friendly Tue-Wed.
