General Info

In 1921, Rose McNally opened "McNally's Quick Lunch" in a small corrugated steel building at the trolley turn atop the highest hill in Philadelphia. In 1927 Rose and Hugh purchased one of the new buildings just across the street and moved the Quick Lunch. In 1934, after Prohibition and much family debate, the family obtained a license to sell beer & alcohol. In 1953, Rose's grandson, Hugh James, returned home from his tour as a Marine and helped his father Hugh Patrick at the bar for a few days. He never left. Today you'll find Hugh's daughters, Rose's great-granddaughters, Anne & Meg running the "store". They recently expanded seating into next door. Come on by for a good meal and a cold beer.In 1921, Rose McNally opened "McNally's Quick Lunch" in a small corrugated steel building at the trolley turn atop the highest hill in Philadelphia.
