Top Bars For Cornhole In Philadelphia

Cornhole, known to others as "baggo" or "bean bag toss," has been around for centuries and is now a popular bar game across the country. Philadelphia even has its own league for the sport – aptly named the Philadelphia Cornhole League. The PCL plays throughout the year at many different bars around town, and people of all skill levels are invited to join a team. If you're not quite ready to join the league, here are the best bars in Philly to test your cornhole skills.
