Food Scene

MUST TRY SPOT. This is a little BYOB restaurant with a $25.00 Prix Fix Menu. It's more of a dinner party than anything when you're in there and the owner will treat you like family. Amazing vibe, cool little spot and totally affordable. Walking distance from the apartment! :)

Adorable little Coffee shop right on Girard Avenue. Definitely a cute spot to get a vegan treat (if you're into that) or a latte to go.

This is an ULTRA cool and very impressive Lebanese spot that serves flat breads and delicious Lebanese pastries. The cocktails are very delicious and the decor is trendy, hip and super fun. Definitely a must try for brunch in a very cool neighborhood known as Fishtown.

If you are into jazz music, yummy cocktails BUT you think you may also want to cut the rug this place is perfect! You can listen to live jazz music downstairs, and dance upstairs to a DJ on the weekends.

Parks & Nature

Biggest City park in the USA. You can do anything! Run along the river by the art museum, or play some disc golf at the disc golf course, you can go to the driving range, play some soccer or go for a run! It's all just one block away. You can see it from my window!
