Having a Party? have it at Love City and Leave the Smoke to Us.

The best kind of party is the one where you actually get to hang out with your guests instead of running around playing host.

That’s exactly the vibe upstairs at Love City Manayunk. You get a private space with its own bar, a game room, and plenty of room to stretch out, while we line the tables with Sophie's BBQ. Think piles of coffee-rubbed brisket, ribs, and all the sides to go around alongside a few cold, Philly-brewed pints. You just show up, eat, and enjoy your night. We've got the rest covered.

Great BBQ, made even better with a proper beer or cocktail.

We've officially brought the smoke to Main Street. Love City’s Manayunk location brings the brewery’s community-first spirit and signature Philly-made beer right to the table alongside Sophie's low-and-slow barbecue. It’s a true neighborhood partnership—the perfect spot to grab a couple of freshly poured local pints, tear into a pile of coffee-rubbed brisket, and catch up with friends.

The storefront has signs with the words 'Main Street Love City' and windows with additional phrases like 'Brewed for All' and 'Philly'. There are several potted plants outside, and the building exterior is made of brick with a window and decorative lighting fixtures hanging above.

What People Are Saying

“Sophie’s BBQ is hands down one of the best barbecue spots I’ve had in years. I ordered the full rack of dry BBQ ribs and the dry brisket—both were incredibly flavorful, tender, and cooked to perfection. The sweet potato hush puppies were a standout side—crispy, sweet, and absolutely delicious.

The service was just as impressive as the food. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made the entire experience feel welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back the next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend this spot to any BBQ lover!”
