Main drag of Manayunk, full of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques, just a quick drive or medium length walk from the Residence Inn. Some local favorites: - Manayunk Brewing Company - Winnie’s - Mia Ragazza - Taqueria Amor - Tubby Robot Ice Cream
Great park to stroll through, especially on Saturdays when there is a farmers market! Some local favorites: - Cleavers Philadelphia (Garret’s go-to cheesesteak!) - Parc - K’Far Cafe - 1-900-ICE-CREAM - Walnut Street Shops - La Colombe
Area where Julia and Garret live, known for the beautiful row homes and proximity to multiple Art Museums. Some favorite spots to check out: - Philadelphia Museum of Art (and the Rocky Steps) - Boathouse Row - Eastern State Penitentiary (museum) - Bad Brother (restaurant) - Era (dive bar that also serves delicious Ethiopian food) - Harper’s Ice Cream
The central hub for the rowing clubs on the Schuylkill River, and a fun place to walk, bike, or run!
Lots of great hiking trails, not too far of a drive from downtown.
A Philadelphia staple for beer, has a great selection of food and drink, and in general is a fun place to spend a few hours!
