Toll Man Joe's, the former South Philadelphia sports bar that closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, will return to the city in the coming weeks at a new location in Center City. The owners of the bar and restaurant say they are moving into the space of the former Caribbean restaurant Mixto, which closed this month after 26 years near the corner of 12th and Pine streets. The original Toll Man Joe's, best known for its chicken wings, opened in 2016 at 26 E. Oregon Avenue. Toll Man Joe's got its name from longtime Pennsylvania Turnpike worker and competitive eater Joseph Paul, who once won SportsRadio 94WIP's Wing Bowl in 2000 by putting down 90 wings. Toll Man Joe's opened a BYOB in Woolwich, New Jersey, in 2023 that will remain open after the new bar opens in Center City.
