Philly’s Oldest Bar, McGillin’s Has Created a Virtual Tip Jar for Their Staff!
Since the pandemic began last March we’ve seen our far share of GoFundMe campaigns and fundraisers by area businesses as they try to weather the storm. With indoor dining being banned, many have turned to outdoor dining. However, with the cold weather and limited outdoor capacity many bars and restaurants just couldn’t continue. Now Philly’s oldest bar is looking for support from the city it served for the last 160 years.
McGillin’s Old Ale House recently posted their virtual tip jar campaign to social media with a goal of $10,000. All money donated will go directly to star and donors will be able to shout out their favorite staff members. Currently the campaign is just about $1,500. See the GoFundMe description below.
“Many people have reached out asking how they can support their favorite McGillin’s bartenders, servers, doormen, & kitchen staff this holiday season.
As a result, we have started a Virtual Holiday Tip Jar for all active employees. If you’d like to send a Christmas “tip” & a shoutout to your favorite McGillin’s employee it would be greatly appreciated & will go a long way.
The next few months may be challenging for all of us, but we look forward to celebrating good times with our loyal patrons, who we call family, again soon!
100% of your donations will be distributed directly to active employees who have worked tirelessly through all of the restrictions, constant safety revisions, inclement weather, shutdowns, reduced hours & loads of uncertainty. These employees have come to work with the great attitude, the great smile & the superior service you have come to expect from the complete McGillin’s Experience!
Merry Christmas to You & Yours! Cheers, Team McGillin’s”
