Quite possibly the best brunch in Philadelphia. Be ready for upto an hour wait on Saturday/Sundays as they do not take reservations. Pro tip: call ahead and add your name to the list so that your table is close to being ready when you get there.

2006 Chestnut StAmazing cocktails. Definitely get the Penicillin.
Speakeasy with amazing cocktails. The owner is very eccentric and will refuse entry if you act or dress weird (e.g. ring the bell for too long, wear sneakers or shorts). Don't do anything out of the ordinary and you should be fine.
