Accolades: Vernick’s Vincent Stipo named Best Bartender in the U.S.

File this under 'tell us something we don't know': Today The Daily Meal named the top 25 bartenders in the U.S. and Vincent Stipo of Vernick Food & Drink (2031 Walnut St.) landed at number 20. He's the only Philadelphia-based bartender on the list and he's in some pretty good company with the likes of Eryn Reece of New York's Death & Co. and Mayahuel, Matt Biancaniello of POT Lobby Bar in L.A. (home to the only uni-based cocktail in the country) and number one barkeep, Jack McGarry of New York's The Dead Rabbit. 

We suggest you head over to Vernick and help Stipo celebrate his title with a classic Jack Rose or one of our favorite Stipo cocktails, the CL Smooth.
