Snockey`s is timeless.I loved it as a kid,and its still the best.Just great,fresh,basic,in your face seafood.Love the nostalgia .Love Clammy Hour!
Snockey's is one of my favorite places in Philadelphia...it's a traditional oyster house. You just can't find nicer people and better tasting oysters and clams anywhere in the city.
I visited from Califrnia. This in an excellent sea food value by west coast standards. Fresh food (oysters, clams & sole) excellent service, very reasonable prices.
Good food for a good price.
Restaurant has an "old style" feel to it. Sit at the bar and enjoy some clams, oysters or some steamed shrimp or sit at a table and enjoy all u can eat crablegs Mon through Wednesday Nights.... Expect to spend 30-35 per person but it is well worth it as you will enjoy the food.
Great variety of oysters,always fresh and cleanly shucked.Great bargins at Clammy Hour .........Broiled Combo is a winner too!
nobody does it better...well deserved win for last year !!!! even better this year. this is not to be missed gem.
I live in Tennessee. Everytime when in the Philly area (Chalfont), I drive down to visit Snockey's. I belong to million miler clubs with Delta and American thus travel a lot. This is one of the best places to eat in all my travels.
THANKS for all the GREAT food!!!
This was one of the coolest places I have ever had the pleasure of eating at. While on vacation last week, I happened upon Snockey's based on an add in the Philly tourism booklet. The food was not only fresh, but the selection and price was unbelievable. The service was excellent as well as very friendly. We enjoyed it so much that we went back 3 nights later on our last night in town! You will not be disappointed.
I have been eating at Snockey's for over thirty-five years and have yet to have a complaint. When mother was alive we looked forward to Friday's because we knew we were going to enjoy a meal from Snockey''s.
Not only do they have excellent food especially the crab balls but they have friendly and attentive service.
We started to visit Snockey's when we were dating and after 41 years of marriage it is still a great date for a"date"... great food, great portions and great prices.

I work next door to Snockey's Oyster and Crab House and have been more than satisfied with the polite and hospitable service that they provide. I also enjoy the unique taste of all the seafood that I have eaten over the years, especially the fresh oysters and clams!!!!!
Always excellent seafood dishes and a warm friendly place to gather with friends.
Going to Snockey's for over 50 years, and have yet to be disappointed. Ate there today and the oysters were still top notch, cold, shucked without shells and totally delicious.
Wonderful old-fashioned, cozy atmosphere! Excellent food, friendly service, family owned since 1912! THE BEST!!!
It's all about fresh oysters, reasonable prices and the Old Philadelphia Oyster House style.
Best selection for the best prices in the city - - - just for the potato salad, the dinner out is worth it!
They are the "BEST" because I am a faithful customer who has been going there for years. Their food is superb! And only continues to get better with age... (theirs, not mine ;) )
I have been going to Snockey's for years. Great food & wonderful people plus the best all you can eat crab nights!
