Food Scene

The Dandelion is said to have the best burger in Philly - its the one that is a combination of different types of meat (might be the only one they have). It's an expensive spot that prides itself on updated seasonal takes of UK cuisine. And they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Parc is a French-styled restaurant that has a really nice outside seating area which views Rittenhouse square, but the weather will dictate whether or not you want that experience. It serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. This place is also expensive.

It's a typical tourist Philly cheese steak place. That and Geno's. They are not the best cheese steaks in Philly but are the most well known outside of Philly.

Really amazing chocolate bar and restaurant all in one that's worth the price. Large portions and delicious flavors and options that make it a wholly unique experience. They even have a chocolate pizza with roasted marshmallows, melted peanut butter or hazelnut bits as toppings!

Run up and take photos at the same iconic steps Rocky Balboa trained on. The view from the top is pretty cool.

Essentials

The Sporting Club at the Bellevue has a swimming pool. They can do a 1 month membership but all their memberships come with a $75 joining fee that they don't waive. The monthly fee would be $112 so for 1 month it would cost ~ $187 per person. Unfortunately, I don't know of another option than this.

It's out of the way being located in University City, but it has the most options for casual and regular filmgoers: blockbusters and some small budget films. Buses or the Market-Frankford line can drop you off near this theater.

Getting Around

One of the easier ways to get from one end of center city to the other. Trains for the MFL and BSL, as well as trolleys can be taken from this location. You can buy passes at the station. Be mindful, during the work week it's incredibly busy in the mornings and from 3-6pm.
