Things To Do
ReAnimator Coffee
Our personal go-to coffee spot within a 5 min walk from our house. Great local coffee without a lot of frills.
La Colombe Coffee Roasters
Trendy cafe serving house-brand artisanal coffee, pastries & snacks in a sleek space. This is the coffee roaster's flagship store, right in the heart of Fishtown. Jess loves the pure black on tap (cold brew). Fun Fact: The coffee shop was featured in Queen Eye Season 3!
Loco Pez
Our favorite taqueria that we walk to at least once a week. Great menu and awesome margaritas.
Cedar Point Bar & Kitchen
Cedar Point is a weekly stop for us. For our buffalo people - the wings here are our favorite! Brick-walled, industrial-chic depot featuring their unique take on old-school comfort food & rotating craft beer on tap; craft cocktails; and great wine.
Front Street Cafe
Great farm-to-table restaurant that focuses on using local plant-based and organic ingredients whenever available; accommodating to most dietary restrictions. They also feature a full coffee shop cafe and juice bar. Fun fact: The restaurant was featured in Queer Eye Season 3!
R&D
Jess' favorite late night spot for a cocktail. Dimly lit, mid-century modern, speakeasy with an extremely well crafted cocktail list and live jazz music or DJ depending on the night of the week.
Suraya Restaurant
Chic & spacious Lebanese cafe, market & restaurant with bar & outdoor garden.
Philadelphia Brewing Co
Rich says the Kenzinger on draft is the best beer he's ever had.
Evil Genius Beer Company
Craft beer with silly names. Brewery with small bites in an industrial-chic hangout; and a great outdoor patio if the weather is nice.
Liberty Bell Center
The Liberty Bell, previously called the State House Bell or Old State House Bell, is an iconic symbol of American independence, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Rocky Steps
The 72 stone steps before the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have become known as the "Rocky Steps" as a result of the scene from the film Rocky. Tourists often mimic Rocky's famous climb, a metaphor for an underdog or an everyman rising to a challenge. Be sure to take your picture with the Rocky statue, located adjacent to the base of the museum steps.
Love Park
Philadelphia’s iconic John F. Kennedy Plaza — better known as LOVE Park — gets its nickname from Robert Indiana’s iconic LOVE statue, which has resided in the space almost continuously since 1976. The park is conveniently located near City Hall and Dilworth Park.
Dilworth Park
Located at the foot of City Hall, Dilworth Park is a modern and welcoming outdoor space, reestablishing William Penn’s original Center Square as a gathering place for all Philadelphians. The park becomes the city's lively centerpiece, with a cafe, lush lawn, tree groves, and a fountain, which converts into an ice skating rink in winter.
