We have had dinner there several times. Always an excellent presentation & meal. After dinner destination with friends, great seafoood snacks. We've family that live in St. Paul that request we take them every time they visit. We hope they come to visit with us, but they sure like the oysters at Snockey's. It has us wondering.

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.

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.

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.

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!!!!!

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.
