Chrissy & Andrew
Things To Do
Barnes Foundation
Where Chrissy and Andrew got engaged! Founded in 1922 by Dr. Albert C. Barnes to advance education and appreciation of the fine arts, the foundation is renowned for its extensive holdings of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and early modern European paintings, as well as African art, sculpture, and decorative arts. The collection includes the world's largest groups of works by Renoir and significant pieces by Cézanne, Matisse, and Picasso.
Buena Onda
Where Chrissy and Andrew had their first date! Buena Onda, Chef Jose Garces’ Baja-inspired taqueria is more than a fast casual taqueria, it’s a mindset. In Spanish, Buena Onda means ”Good Vibes”. In a world full of fast casual options, Buena Onda offers a unique, casual Baja taqueria experience for guests with an appealing menu, friendly service, and laid-back beach bum decor.
LeBus East Falls
This is our favorite restaurant in East Falls and just down the street from our home and church. Located in Philadelphia’s East Falls neighborhood at the corner of Ridge & Midvale Ave, LeBus is family-friendly and serves simple, American homestyle food. Our favorite item on the menu is the East Falls burger.
Reading Terminal Market
Explore Philly's oldest public market with over 75 diverse, small, family-owned businesses providing local produce, meats, poultry, seafood, cheeses, baked goods, confections, an array of freshly prepared foods and gifts. The market is located only a few blocks walk from both the hotel and reception venue. Seating is limited but there is a central area with tables and chairs.
Giovani's Bar & Grill
Giovani's is one of our favorite lunch date spots. If your looking for a classic Philly pub experience, come try a Citywide Special! The buffalo chicken tenders are out of this world and Chrissy's favorite.
Zio's Brick Oven Pizza
Zio's was our first lunch date spot while we were both working in Center City. If you are looking for a great slice of pizza near the Loews, Zio's comes close to NY pizza standards. The garlic knots are exceptional and Andrew's favorite.
