A Foodie's Guide to Philadelphia

Although most know Philadelphia for its historical landmarks and museums, its culinary scene is just as remarkable. While the city is mainly known for its prominent cheesesteaks, you’ll find these great options to further satisfy your taste buds.

With over 80 merchants, you are bound to find something to please your palate, at Reading Terminal Market. You can enjoy a variety of freshly made staples, such as the iconic Philly cheesesteak at Jim Pappas, a roast pork sandwich from Dinic’s (voted as the best sandwich in America by the Travel Channel), followed by a delicious doughnut from Beiler’s Bakery.

Conveniently located steps away from our AKA locations are a.kitchen+bar and Walnut Street Café. These are the perfect places to grab a convenient bite to eat at, whether it’s the award-winning wine selections or seasonal brunch, lunch, and dinner menus.

Just a three-minute walk from AKA Rittenhouse Square is Gran Caffe L’aquila. Enjoy a high quality meal with authentic Italian flavor followed by their award-winning gelato for your sweet tooth.

Enjoy a meal in Philly’s most unique neighborhood, Chinatown. The streets are packed from end-to-end with restaurants, cafés and markets that represent a variety of Asian cultures.
