You could cook dinner at home, or you could let our kitchen crew handle it while you listen to live acoustic blues. Steve Guyger and Filthy Rich are playing right by the bar, and the kitchen is frying up batches of our house-made Cheesesteak Spring Rolls with spicy ranch.
Music kicks off at 7pm. Pair it with a cold draft and a spot right near the action.
Give us a call at 215-944-8050 to secure a table.

We are setting up the mic stands, tuning the house acoustic, and wiping down the bar. Steve Tourison is back on hosting duties for Open Mic night, and the kitchen is going with snacks like our crispy Sweet Potato Fries tossed in a cinnamon sugar mix with butter pecan dipping sauce.
Music and performances start at 7pm. Come support the local State Street arts scene.

The regulars who show up for trivia do not play around. Mike Coffey is sorting through his question stacks right now, and the arguments over sports stats and pop culture history are officially scheduled to begin at 7pm. Bring your smartest friends or just the ones who are good at guessing.

Sign-ups start before 7pm. The high-tops near the bar always go first.

Call 215-944-8050 to reserve your team's table.

Acoustic Spiral makes it look pretty easy. Bob and Shelly are back at The Temp playing 70s rock and retro classics you'll know every word to whether you want to or not.

The high-tops near the bar always go first. Grab one early and order a plate of Wings tossed in Garlic Parmesan while you sort out the taps. Tables go fast — call 215-944-8050 to grab one.

The front doors are propped open on State Street and the amps are already warming up in the tavern. Steve Guyger and Filthy Rich are setting up to bring real, unfiltered harmonica and guitar blues to the room. If your week needs a serious reset, this is exactly where you want to sit.
Music starts at 7pm. Grab a stool early because the bar fills up fast when these two plug in.
Call 215-944-8050 to reserve a table for dinner.

From early morning practices to weekend games, local coaches put an incredible amount of time into our kids all season long. When the team chips in for an end-of-season thank you, skip another big-box sporting goods gift card or engraved clipboard.

A Temperance House gift card gives them exactly what they actually want after a long schedule: a well-earned dinner and a cold drink at the tavern away from the fields.

Plus, if you're the one hosting the team's end of the season party this year, let us handle the cooking. We can put together to-go catering trays of wings, sliders, and all your favorites so you can actually sit back and enjoy the celebration.

Drop by the tavern or call us at 215-944-8050 to grab a gift card or lock in your party trays today!

End-of-the-school-year gifts don't need to be complicated. Skip the generic mugs and give the teachers in your life a night out they can actually look forward to.

A Temperance House gift card is a great way to show some genuine appreciation for a long year of hard work.

Stop by the tavern or call us at 215-944-8050 to pick one up before the final bell rings.

Anders Hyatt is back at the bar tonight starting at 7:00. It’s usually a pretty full house when he’s here, so if you’re planning on dinner and the music, I’d suggest getting in on the earlier side of the rush.

Mother's Day brunch is May 10th, 10AM to 1PM. $42 for adults, $21 for kids. The menu's got hand carved prime rib, salmon with bruschetta, chicken piccata, made-to-order eggs Benedict and omelettes, and enough on the dessert table to justify skipping the entrée entirely. We've got a few reservations left, so if you're planning to bring the family to the old building on Court Street, now's the time to call. What's everyone doing for Mother's Day this year, going out, cooking at home, or still figuring it out?

The omelette station is the main event for a reason. You tell us what goes in, we make it on the fly. We’re also doing made-to-order Eggs Benedict and a full spread of chocolate chip pancakes for the kids.

Brunch runs 10 AM to 1 PM on the 10th. If you want a specific table or have a larger group, it’s a lot easier to fit you in if you let us know this week. Link in bio (or our website) to grab a spot.

Mother's Day brunch is May 10th, 10AM to 1PM. We're doing the full buffet in the bar and seating in the whole first floor, $42 for adults and $21 for kids. If you've had a Sunday morning here before you already know it's worth it, and if you haven't, this is a pretty good one to start with. Tables fill up faster than people think so give us a call if you're planning on coming. Do you usually do Mother's Day as a big family thing or keep it small?

Mother's Day brunch is happening right here at The Temperance House on May 10th, 10AM to 1PM. The main dining room is a genuinely lovely spot for it, stone fireplace and all, and this is the kind of meal that feels like a real occasion without anyone having to cook. Adults $42, children $21. Reservations are going fast and we'd hate for you to miss it. Who are you bringing this year, and do they know they're already getting the best gift?

Mike Donovan is playing tonight and if you haven't seen him yet, this is a good one to start with. Acoustic, no fuss, the kind of music that makes you forget you were only planning to stay for one drink. We're at 5 South State Street in Newtown, the bar fills up on Saturday nights, and the old building sounds better with live music in it. Call ahead if you want a table. 7PM.
