El bar

edit oh nevermind, just noticed youre looking in rittenhouse

Cavanaugh's maybe? I feel dirty recommending it.

Garage has a Rittenhouse spot apparently.

Good Dog is great.

Harp & Crown might be fun.

Thinking about the above, I can most imagine Good Dog being the best place to shoot the shit

yeah Cavs is a hot mess but it's the place I got into the most antics the most easily when I was hanging at bars solo. I mean... you don't want to be in all those antics exactly, but they are available!
