Is Gaul & Co. Malt House Still Open? Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Update

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Season 32 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Current status

Open

As of October 2026, Gaul & Co. Malt House is listed open on mindtrip.ai, reviewed by our team on September 7, 2026; not yet independently confirmed through direct contact.

What the source shows: Google Places lists the Port Richmond location as operational and a review aggregator (Mindtrip) shows an active, current review profile, while the restaurant's own website has no content newer than roughly its 2016 opening and no ordering system, so current-open status rests on the listing evidence rather than the site.

What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

On "Filling Up on Philly" (aired 2020-08-21), Guy Fieri visited Gaul & Co. Malt House in Philadelphia's Port Richmond neighborhood for its Witorwitowski, a kielbasa chopped and served cheesesteak-style, joining owners James Lyons, Matthew Yeck, David Moore, and Joseph Forkin, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. The restaurant and bar, established in 2016, serves contemporary pub classics with Philly flair, per its own website. A 2026-09-08 site check found gaulandco.com still online and now advertising a second location in Rockledge, Pennsylvania, alongside brunch service at both spots, though the page carried no ordering system and no content dated past its 2016 opening. Google Places lists the Port Richmond location's status as operational as of the same check, and a restaurant-review aggregator, Mindtrip, reported the location holding a 4.5-star rating from more than 851 Google reviews.
