The Abbaye (637 N. Third St.): It's the "Small Screen Halloween Party" � come dressed as your favorite TV character (zombie-fied or not). Drink specials all night.
Alison Two (424 S. Bethlehem Pike, Fort Washington): Oct. 30 will see a Halloween cocktail party at A2's bar, with drink-making demos and food/booze specials from 5 to 8. Even more specials are planned for Halloween day.
Cantina Dos Segundos (931 N. Second St.): NoLibs' Cantina is throwing its second annual Halloween party, complete with $2 margaritas and beers for you costumed (and-Phillies-gear-wearing) folk.
Chipotle (area locations): Free burrito from 6 p.m. till closing if you dress up as a Chipotle menu item.
Devil's Den (1148 S. 11th St.): Friday, Oct. 30 is "Mischief Night with the Ladies" � Megan from Ommegang/Duvel, Suzy (aka the Beer Lass) from Sly Fox and Wendy from Dogfish Head will be in the house starting at 7 p.m., and we're sure they're bringing some good stuff from their respective breweries.
The Franklin Mortgage & Investment Co. (112 S. 18th St.): In the mood for something a little more adventurous? E-mail info@thefranklinbar.com and ask for a password for the "All Hallow's Eve Masquerade." How mysterious.
Golosa (806 S. Sixth St.): This sweet shop's taking care of the treats, so all you have to bring is the booze. For $13, you get three courses of chocolate-y goodness, like hot drinking chocolates (the "black pumpkin" is 60 percent cacao and pumpkin-rum flavored) or "Goblin Seeds," pieces of dark chocolate with pumpkin seeds and chili pepper.
Grey Lodge Pub (6235 Frankford Ave.): Up in the Northeast? Stop by the Grey Lodge for a fresh tapping of Dogfish Head's Punkin Ale.

Pub Webb (1527 Cecil B. Moore Ave.): Pub Webb is turning Halloween into a three-day weekend: �Halloweekend.� Prepare for music, costumes and beer.
Rum Bar (2005 Walnut St.): Zombie party! Make sure to dress up like you're undead and take advantage of the mysterious $3 zombie special, three different kinds of rum mixed with pineapple, passion fruit and lemon juice. (It's $6 if you're not in costume.) A DJ and a face painter will be on hand.
