Philadelphia was a no brainer when we talked about where we wanted to get married. Not only is it the City of Brotherly Love, but there is so much to do and holds some of our favorite places and memories. We are passionate about this section so bare with us! (Click the name for the website!)
La Colombe Coffee Rosters is everywhere and is based in Philly! You can't go wrong here!
Philly Bagels (Multiple Locations) and Schmear (Multiple Locations)
Harper's Garden (31 S 18th St.) has a delicious brunch and their ambiance is unmatched!
Green Eggs Cafe (Multiple Locations) - never fail spot for brunch. Cash only!
Sabrina's Cafe (Multiple Locations) - another great brunch spot!
We won't judge you if you get Geno's or Pat's, but we won't not judge you if you get Geno's or Pat's. Here are some other choices. :-)
Ishkabibble's try saying this 5 times fast. Spot has 2 locations, GREAT spot and in a convenient location. Less touristy than Jim's but just as good.
Jim's ok... honestly safest spot. If you are ordering on Doordash, order from here. They are consistently great.
John's Roast Pork do NOT laugh at the appearance of this spot. You roll up thinking, how is this place one of the best? You just wait. It is a little bit out of the way though.
Dalessandro's unfortunately, Allison's favorite is outside of the city (I know). If you happen to be southwest of the city, this is an iconic cheesesteak spot. But any of the spots above are just as good to get!
Parc if there is anywhere you NEED to go to, it is Parc. They have incredible dirty martinis and the most hearty breadbasket. Their French Onion soup is world renown (unverified) and a comfort spot for the bride. It is also located in the famous Rittenhouse Square area.
Double Knot is Brian and Allison's favorite sushi spot. It's a dark and moody spot and just... DELISH!
El Vez is our choice for Mexican. Their taco flight is so fun and you get to choose all sorts of flavors! Be careful of the margarita pitchers...
The Continental ... another impeccable spot for a martini. More American classic menu and you kind of feel like you are in an Austin Powers movie. Their burger is TO DIE for.
Buddakan Asian-fusion with a huge Buddha presence in the room. So delicious and make sure you book a reservation in advance!
Giorgio on Pine another Philly staple for Brian and Allison. BYO, so many memories here. Save a table in advance for the best italian food ever. If you are lucky Giorgio will be working the host stand himself.
Bud & Marilyn's perfect spot if you are looking for comfort food! GET THE FRIED CHICKEN!
Talula's Garden another staple Old City spot known for their farm to table! Classic American menu!
McGillans need I say more? The most pub you can get in Philly. An iconic spot.
Morgan's Pier right under the Benjamin Franklin bridge, fun and great spot to grab drinks and food!
Drinker's Pub cheap beers, fun dive bar!
Victory Beer a Philly based beer brewer, great food and ambiance! Gets very crowded on game days!
Assembly Rooftop Bar upscale cocktail bar, great views of the parkway and the city!
Old City Beer Garden fun outdoors area and right around the wedding sites!
Paddy's another Old City staple, divey Irish pub!
Bob and Barb's the infamous spot for $2 PBR's! Live music on weekends and great place to close out your night.
