Things To Do
Philadelphia Museum of Art
An expansive art museum in Philly’s Fairmount Park neighborhood. Tickets are half-priced Friday 5-8:30!
Philadelphia's Magic Gardens
The Magic gardens is an expansive art installation featuring work from mosaic artist Isaiah Zagar. Spanning three city lots, the museum includes indoor galleries and a large outdoor labyrinth. We recommend buying tickets in advance.
Eastern State Penitentiary
Eastern State Penitentiary was one of the first modern prisons ever designed. Now converted into a museum, it features detailed history about the prison as well as incarceration in the United States, including a self-guided tour narrated by Steve Buscemi
Philadelphia Zoo
The oldest zoo in America! Our personal favorite exhibits are the birds and the giant river otters.
Wissahickon Valley Park
Beautiful park just outside Philadelphia. Great for some light hiking if weather permits.
Angelo's Pizzeria
Our favorite cheesesteak. Call ahead with your order but be prepared to wait in line when you get there
Morning Glory Diner
One of our favorite diners for breakfast/brunch. No reservations so there is usually a short wait. Make sure to try their biscuits and fresh jam! Cash only, but has an ATM inside.
