Things To Do
Jim's Steaks South St.
Eoin and Emily agree that the best cheesesteak comes from Jim's on South. There may be a long line around the corner around dinner, so leave yourself some extra time. If you're from Philly or live here and don't agree, why are you on this page? You don't need things to do, you know where you're going. Get outta here.
Philadelphia's Magic Gardens
Art! Highly Recommend!
Morning Glory Diner
The best breakfast (or at least biscuits) you'll ever eat.
Nomad Roman
Our favorite pizza.
Spruce Street Harbor Park
Hammocks, beer, bright lights hanging from trees? What more could you want from a park? You may have to fight someone for a hammock, but don't worry people from Philly aren't as mean as they seem.
The Mütter Museum
The College of Physicians of Philadelphia present day is a museum of medical history and medical oddities! Interesting and informative, but not for the faint of heart.
The Woodlands Cemetery and Mansion
Nestled in West Philly is historic Woodlands 54 acre cemetery and mansion. Emily and Eoin visited here almost daily to walk or run when they lived in West Philly, and the front of the mansion is where Eoin proposed to Emily in August of 2020.
Mission Taqueria
Mission has delicious tex mex food, and of course, margaritas (a favorite drink of Emily and Eoin and probably everyone else on the planet) It also has pretty decor and you can't take a bad photo anywhere, so go here if you like Instagram.
Tattooed Mom
How do we always end up at this bar?
Khyber Pass Pub
Beer and cozy comfort food. Come here if you'd like a sit in a quiet bar the night before the wedding!
Famous 4th Street Delicatessen
We were going to get our reception dessert from here, but just because we sold out when we found that the caterer provided a cake in their packages, doesn't mean you should be deprived of their ridiculous cookies and desserts. Eoin can also vouch for their fantastic chicken cheesesteak.
