Stollenwerk getting ready to put the Fish in Fishtown

Courtesy of Fathom Fathom Seafood House (200 E. Girard Ave.) is just about ready to open in Fishtown (check out our very early word on Fathom back in the summer). Mike Stollenwerk, of Little Fish and fish fame, is at the head of the sustainably sourced raw bar and seafood-centered gastropub. The menu will feature updated comfort food including lobster grilled cheese, swordfish schnitzel, cod pierogies and "Fathom Fries" topped with crab, spiced crab gravy and cheese curd. (Join us in crossing our fingers for some whole belly clams.) The 24-seat concrete topped bar will have a strong local presence with 10 beers on tap and over 40 bottles and cans. Fathom will be open seven days a week, with happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. from Monday to Friday and 12 p.m. to close on Saturday and Sunday. UPDATE: Food and beer menus, after the jump!
