    Great place for a drink. Or dinner. Or just a snack between bars. The outside seating on the corner is perfect for watching the boys go by

    Great higher end relaxed atmosphere for the gay who wants to see and be seen without the overpacked loud nature of many other gay bars.

    Service is about 3 stars out of 5. Food is 2.5 stars. Drinks & cocktails are 2 stars, they pour too heavily and gives the drink an octane rating. If you're an alcoholic then you will love it here!

    Knock, knock! Who's there? A sophisticated dining establishment with a predominantly (older) gay clientele. I have yet to try the food, but the cheery bar staff can make a mean vodka gimlet.

    Grab a drink at Knock during Philly's 3rd Annual Bar AIDS on Thursday, September 27. A portion of your coffees and cocktails all day long benefits 4 local AIDS service organizations. Cheers! Read more

    Their happy hour is a Gayborhood mainstay. You can also eat lunch here during the week and brunch on Sundays.

    Get here early for a seat at happy hour. In the warmer months, an outdoor table is the place to see and be seen. Great service. Always.

    Lots of tv screens to watch sports and doesn't get too crowded.

    Filet was good but not $32 good... You get what you pay for with the drinks- totally worth it!

    Fill up on the Knock Burger, 10 ounces of Angus beef topped with sautéed onions and Muenster cheese.

    You can't beat the outside seating. It's the place to see and be seen. Say hello to the handsome bartenders.

    Be sure to order ur drinks as close to the bar as possible; the petit bartenders find it difficult to reach over the bar.

    Mind the short bartenders when ordering drinks, to avoid spillage you may have to reach across the bar further ;-P

    Always a bit pricey, but giant portions and tasty new menu compliment the copious eye candy. Try the Pork "Wings".
