Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Meghan Claiborne and Roland Bisio

We're so excited to celebrate with everyone! There's tons to do in Philly, so we just wanted to share a few fun ideas and some of our favorite restaurants. If you're planning on eating out, we'd recommend making reservations as the more popular restaurants often book quickly! Some of our favorites are: Surayah ($$$) (Lebanese) Kalaya ($$$) (Thai) Zahav ($$$) (Israeli) Sampan ($$) (Asian fusion) Harp & Crown ($$) (American) Via Lacosta ($$) (Italian) Sassafras ($$) (French & American, great cocktails) Tabachoy ($) (Filipino) Dan Dan ($) (Sichuan/Taiwanese) Cavanaugh’s Headhouse ($) (Bar food, great wings) Middle Child ($) (Really great brekkie sammies) Fitzwater Cafe ($) (Breakfast) Green Eggs ($) (Breakfast) The Franklin Fountain ($) (Iconic ice cream spot) A few more below! If you're looking for a good cheesesteak, we'd recommend Jim's (South St. & 4th) or Angelo's (South St. & 9th). Pat's & Gino's are also places that sell cheesesteaks. That's all we have to say about them.

Pretend to be Rocky and soak up some culture.

Rodin Museum

2151 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19130

Barnes Foundation

2025 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19130

Excellent museum. If you want to do a bit of homework, check out The Art of the Steal (film, 2009). Really interesting legal battle over the works.

Philadelphia's Magic Gardens

Really interesting art installation on South Street.

Cruiser Olympia and Submarine Becuna at Independence Seaport Museum

Boathouse Row

1 Boathouse Row, Philadelphia, PA 19130

Starting at the Schuylkill River Park (Spruce St. and 25th) there is a lovely path along the river that takes you to Boathouse Row and continues on to Wissahickon Valley Park. There's also a parking lot behind the Art Museum by the trail if you'd like a shorter work and/or a place to park.

Sip overpriced (but really delicious) cocktails and take in amazing views of the city from 60 floors up. The elevator ride up is not for the faint of heart.

Lovely cocktail bar in the Rittenhouse hotel.

Victory Brewing Company Philadelphia

1776 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19103

Located in the middle of Passyunk - a great area to bar/restaurant hop.
