The University City spot is a staple for students and locals alike, so don’t be surprised when everyone inside is toting a backpack. We’re not sure if it’s the extensive draft list, live music, or the highly-coveted fire pits that bring the crowds, but it’s the wood-fired pizzas and other shareable dishes keep them there.
Hawthorne’s is a beer cafe in Bella Vista where you can get surprisingly good food and all the bottles you want to go.
South Philadelphia Tap Room is a neighborhood bar where you plan to stop for a drink and end up spending the whole night.
Murph’s is an Irish pub in Fishtown that also happens to make some of our favorite Italian food in the city.
Tio Flores in Grad Hospital is a great place to start or spend a night, with a long menu of Mexican classics and margaritas.
