Bankroll in Philadelphia
One of the most-anticipated sports bar openings in a while is set to happen in a few months. It’s something different due to the location (the spot of the former Boyd Theatre), the food (Stephen Starr is a partner and working on the menu) and the concept (a high-end, upscale hospitality).
