Next week, Union Trust (717 Chestnut St.) is rolling out a revamped version of its second-floor. Now dubbed Mezz Bar, it's been tweaked to carry more of a lounge feel, and they're adding a new cocktail list (including one named after Lenny Dykstra ... it's about time) and bar menu whose prices top out at $13 (smoked oysters, burgers, ceviche, pork belly sliders, etc.). We're also told there are plans to up the bar's craft beer game a bit. Peep what's in store at Mezz Bar food- and drink-wise after the jump.
