Things To Do

We've spent a lot of time in Fishtown/Northern Liberties because it was close to our old apartments, so you'll see a lot of recommendations there. We bought a house in Brewerytown (near Fairmount) in July 2024, but you'll also find some recs for Center City, Old City and South Philly here! There are so many good places to eat and drink in Philly, so it's hard to go wrong. If you want to see what Reading Terminal Market looks like on a normal day, they are open until 6 PM!
