Unique atmosphere. This place is huge, but also almost always full of people. The coffee is good, but service not so personal. Its hipster central and good for people watching. They are a bakery and early in the morning you can get your bread there. Also they don't have WiFi.

A solid spot to get burgers and fries and some cool beer. You can people watch if you sit outside and late at night there is a stage on the 2nd flood for life music. This is an iconic Fishtown bar that has been there for many years.

Steap and Grind is where to locals hang out to work. Across the street from a beautiful part, the shop itself is nothing special, but the atmosphere is friendly and they have a few outdoor tables.

Drinks & Nightlife

Awesome beer garden with what it seems infinite choice of German beer. They do serve some limited food and have ping-pong tables and jenga to play. VERY crowded in the weekend, but come early enough and its a family place.

Local secret spot. When all the bars are full on Frankfort street you go there. The food is pretty good - Mexican/American pub food. Amazing happy hour and when you go early enough, you can bring the kids and its usually pretty empty.

Best playground in the area!!! Its about a 20 min walk from the house, but if you are going to the store, its very close to it, so you might as well enjoy it. They have picnic tables and also a stage that often has live music or some other kind of events...and it smells of fresh bread, as there is a bakery on the corner.

This is one of the nicest places in Philly these days. Hammocks from every tree, some cool food options, giant chest game for the kids, beer garden on top of the water and a pop up arcade. The only down side is that it could get crowded, but definitely recommend.

Essentials

Its close and there is a Starbucks cafe inside. Actually has an amazing view from the 2nd floor parking lot. Its hard to find the entrance, so ask people to tell you how to get in.

Stunning views of Ben Franklin Bridge. Its best to visit if you are already in Old City, but a walk from my house is not out of the question. It will probably take you about 40 minutes if you are type that likes walking.
