Hiking on the trails of the Wissahickon Valley Park is how we found our venue! We’ve spent plenty of time there with our dog Nova. Our venue sits on an easily accessible gravel walking trail known as “Forbidden Drive,” and there are several hiking trailheads nearby. Let us know if you need any trail recommendations!
Our favorite local spot, Wissahickon Brewing Company, is a short walk from our apartment and a short drive from our venue. (We like it so much, we once walked there in a snowstorm!) You can’t go wrong with any beer selection and they keep a rotating cast of food trucks that often include vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free options.
If you’re exploring the area and have a few extra minutes to kill, we love this combination plant shop/café in view of our apartment (if you happen to stop by, we live in the renovated church just up the block!). Much of the locally-made art hanging in our apartment was purchased here, and we’re huge fans of the oat milk lattes!
