Wait, I thought MilkBoy was a recording studio?

MilkBoy started as a recording studio in north Philly in 1994. Since then we’ve opened two coffee shops and our downtown bar, restaurant and music-venue. This location includes our 200 capacity upstairs venue, and downstairs bar/restaurant offering Philly faves such as the MilkBoy Burger and Espresso Martini. The recording studio is located in Philadelphia, PA, at 413 N 7th Street.
