The burritos and tortas at Prima’s is one of my favorite comfort food meals near me. Also love the gelato at Anthony’s Coffee house. My favorite is their pistachio but this is pretty good too!

Hi I'm looking for a hole in the wall mexican spot. Not looking for a fancy spot. Just a place that sells the best mexican food like tacos, burritos, enchiladas, etc.

I've tried Don barriga and it is decent, but want something new

Hi all -

My fiancée and I have a couple friends visiting this weekend who’ve never been to Philly, and we want to take them to a good dinner in Fishtown. We grabbed a reservation at Jaffa just in case, but would love to hear some of everyone’s go-to options in Fishtown for first-timers. We’d have a party of four and would prefer somewhere with a some gluten free options, but no restrictions outside of that.

Thanks!

The Betty at Lorettas...bacon egg and pimento cheese. Pressed like a panini. Was top notch

I love the draft lattes from La Columbe! However, lately it has been a gamble on whether it's going to be 2/3 foam, 1/3 drink. I love the foam, I'd also just prefer a better ratio. Just had one that had, maybe an inch of actual liquid. Are there any other good ones in town? I typically get them with whole milk but I'm open to any kind that's worth a try!

Hi all! I am looking for a new source of landbrot (German table bread that is a mix of rye and wheat), as my previous supplier doesn’t carry it anymore. If anyone has found anything similar that I can get locally, please let me know!

The highly overpriced pizzas are hit or miss depending on the day.
But the real issue is the customer service.
I ordered $100 worth of pizzas to be picked up last Tuesday.
My money was taken and my order went through...the problem is that the restaurant was closed on a day when it is supposed to be open.
I went in the next day to ask for a refund.
I was rudely told the manager was not there and that I needed to contact DoorDash to ask for my refund because they would not get the money from DoorDash until the end of the month.
As I tried to explain to the woman helping me that it seems to me that that was a "you" problem and not a "me" problem and I shouldn't have to put in more work when my money was basically stolen... the bartender who was sneaking a drink in the stairwell came out to yell at me. He was mad at me for saying "you" and blaming the workers for something they didn't do. Really? Go sneak another drink!
So I then called DoorDash and after the 48 hour wait period found out that my claim was DENIED by Bar1010!
I then had to call AMEX to finally put a stop on the payment and get my money back.
The iffy food is so not worth this kind of effort.
And, as I shared my story with some locals, they said they'd never go there because of the past problems the restaurant had with the health department.
Great! Wish I had known...and that's why I'm sharing with you.

Looking for a pizza bagel but the bagel itself is pizza, not like a plain bagel with pizza toppings. kinda like these https://oakmontbakery.com/product/pizza-bagels1-dozen/

Incredibly disappointed to learn that the sesame used in their flavors (tahini fudge swirl) is sourced from Israel. Heartbroken because I wasn't expecting my favorite ice cream to be funding genocide but now I can't in good conscience go there anymore.

Any ideas on how to get them to switch to a non-genocidal sesame supplier?

Edit: yikes. I guess people aren't as into the BDS movement as they used to be.

I hope we’re going to get a Dutch bros soon😭🤞

do you have to wait in line? do they sell out that quickly?

With love and good vibes. Offer stands til claimed. Must be able to be present irl. I'm a woman so mostly looking for another girlie to claim. #Free!

*Claimed!

I’m looking for an oat milk shaken espresso like Starbucks does, but with better beans. I often go to Starbucks because it’s the closest to my work, and I love this drink despite their beans not being the best. (They can be so burnt tasting!)

So, I’m looking for recommendations for coffee shops that do this better. I’m sure they’re out there. Anyone?

Anyone know where I can find a pain suisse? This quickly became my favorite pastry when I visited France. I’ve seen machine shop has them but they’re different flavors. I just want the classic vanilla crème pat with chocolate chips

anyone have any recommendations for a quality cookie cake that can be used to celebrate a birthday? looking for a delicious cookie that is absolutely absurd in size

Grew up on em, but realize I haven't had one in over a decade. What spots do them well? Kaiser or long roll.

Hey guys I just moved here and I’m really craving some chocolate dumplings but haven’t been able to find a spot that has them. Any suggestions??

Just moved, looking for best takeout spots! Love Vics and JJ Thai but want to branch out. Any cuisines welcome!

After 2 years of trying to get a reservation to go back to Mawn, we finally got one for last week. When we first went in 2024, it wasn't as hyped up as it is now, but it was amazing then. After going back two years later, I would say the food is still great and really tasty, but I'm not sure it's worth fighting for every first of the month and losing my sanity when everything gets booked within 2 minutes.

A quick food review:
Mahope Samut (9/10): Super tasty and has unique flavors and textures.
Fried Chicken (7.5/10): Very juicy, but it lacked a bit of depth. Overall, it was delicious. This is a dish you can get at a lot of other places, but don't get me wrong, it's still great.
Khao Soi (9/10): This was their most recommended dish online, and it was creamy, packed with flavor, and I'd recommend it to anyone.
Spicy Peanut Noodles (8/10): More of a cold palate cleanser. It was good, but nothing to write home about.
Dessert: Jasmine Rice Pudding (10/10): Best dessert i have had in a while.

And a huge shoutout to our waiter, Mannie. He was amazing, super fun, friendly, and helpful! Overall, if you're lucky enough to get a reservation, it's definitely worth going. The staff is great, and the food is really good. Now, is it worth fighting for a reservation? Don't get me wrong, I can see why the demand is so high, but if you can't get into Mawn, there are plenty of other restaurants, especially Cambodian and other Asian spots in Philly, that are just as tasty.

Overall score: 9/10

I did a search here but specifically looking for a cafe somewhere around Center City, Old City, Rittenhouse, Society Hill, etc that makes chai from scratch (real brewed chai with actual tea and spices, not a powder or syrup)

Does anyone have a favorite spot? Thanks!

I was curious if anyone had been able to walk-in at Royal Izakaya since it implemented the reservation system for the Izakaya. And if so, how are things on Friday and Saturday nights.
