“We had our wedding here this past December and I can’t recommend it enough. The building is beautiful and an amazing piece of history and the current goings on just make it better. The lighting added to the auditorium is austere and the disco ball in the gym is simply fabulous.All of the people at Bok were great and easy to work with. Elise was a wonderful guide who was available and knowledgeable throughout the planning process. For the wedding itself our lighting was done in house, the wedding party got ready onsite with breakfast pastries from downstairs and we got to do photos on the roof with the city behind us. If any of this sounds good to you, go take a look and see for yourself - it's awesome”

“Corridor is an amazing three floor gallery in the heart of Fishtown, complete with a mix of local artists and rotating exhibitions. I spent about half an hour wandering through the building and really enjoyed the setup and curatorial work. Staff here is super helpful in terms of outlining what you're about to take in, and the gallery itself is free to walk into.Make sure to add this to your Fishtown itinerary! I joined the mailing list to stay up to date on future openings and look forward to being a regular supporter of this community gem.”

“Step into McGillin’s Olde Ale House and you’re stepping into a piece of Philadelphia history. This beloved tavern, the oldest continuously operating pub in the city, has been pouring pints and serving up hearty fare since 1860. It’s a place where the clink of glasses and the buzz of conversation blend into a symphony of conviviality. Here, friends gather to enjoy a wide selection of regional beers and classic American-Irish pub grub in an atmosphere that’s as warm and welcoming as the staff. Whether you’re there to catch a game, celebrate with a group, or simply soak in the old-world charm, McGillin’s promises an experience that’s both timeless and spirited. So, raise a glass at McGillin’s, where every visit is a toast to tradition and good times! ?”

“We had a wonderful and amazing experience having our toddler's second birthday party here! We had approx. a dozen toddlers and their parents, along with friends/family/cousins, and there was plenty of room and fun for all. Adrienne and her team made the process seamless and for everything they did and all props, games, and decorations, we found the cost very reasonable. We've since been sending our toddler to the sports class, which has also been a fantastic experience! Thank you LCAC for being awesome!”

“Little did I know the US Squash Headquarters is in Drexels Campus. It's a very nice facility that I suggest checking out. They have a ton of courts, gears, and rentals. The bathroom facility is good/clean. Very good price point for monthly or single memberships as well.”

“What a really great spot. We came for a work dinner, not knowing what to expect, and it could not have been a nicer evening. The food was fantastic, from the very first appetizer to the delicious dessert cups at the end. The service was even better. The people were really lovely and the ambiance was warm and intimate. Perfect night. Thank you!”

“Came here for a friend's private birthday party and had an amazing time. Eclectic 2 floor place with pool, ping pong, and darts. Lots of seating. Space for a live band. The owner, Rich, and the bartenders, Jezebel and Colin, were extremely nice. I'd say it's a great place to have an event depending on how many people you have. Note for people who drive: parking is extremely limited (obviously not the venue's fault).”

“We were there for a funeral luncheon. The food was great but the staff was exceptional. Could not have been nicer. I asked for a to go platter for my 90 year old Aunt. It was no problem. They gave her enough for 2 days. They were terrific.”

“Beer Fest Activities @ 23rd St Armory!There were about 20+ breweries participating! I had a VIP Early Access Ticket…it was great to get started with the sampling before it became crowded!I focused on breweries that I haven’t had previous tastes…sadly this is when I realized I have a ‘beer problem’..there may have been 2-3 only that I NEVER had and once I sampled them…I wish I hadn’t…Haahaa! My philosophy about breweries today is: If you brew beer - it doesn’t = good beer!It was a good time overall!”

“Great venue for concerts and live shows! Old school opera stage converted into a modern hall with lots of seating and a bar! Parking is hard to find, only street parking in surrounding blocks. Try to take a rideshare or subway there.”

“This is a long time coming, but finally getting to writing this review!! I hosted my birthday party here in January and I could not be happier with my decision. I rented out the entire top floor and hosted ~50-60 guests. There was ample space for all guests and the food was amazing! The staff made sure that the food was constantly replenished throughout the night. The bartenders were extremely friendly and did not miss a beat. Thank you so much to the entire team, especially Ali for helping with the coordination ahead of time :) Working with Midnight Iris made hosting my party a breeze”

“We have been to Bridgemen's Ballroom several times to cover photography over the years. We had the pleasure of documenting a beautiful wedding couple have their ceremony and reception there. I really love the modern look of the ballroom, the high ceilings and I like the added metal fixures on the chandeliers which gave them a more modern look. The room is very large and spacious and can hold a lot of guests. The gazebo ceremony was a lovely area as the sun was setting. The food was great, and the staff are so friendly, I especially loved working with the wedding coordinator who works really hard, I've met her before at another event. I look forward to coming to this location again to cover more photography events!”

“?Carpenter Hall——is an important conference hall in the early days of the United States. Next, I will share with you some of my feelings after visiting~??I like the decoration style of the hall very much. The general high-end simplicity is matched with the right complexity of details. In the low-brightness yellow, the existence of black and white shows the seriousness and dignity of the leader?It is really a textbook color combination~?Even after so many years, people can still feel the solemnity of taking the oath here??There are some coins of great men for sale in the exhibition hall. The prices are not cheap, but they are also relatively exquisite souvenirs???‍♀️The place here is not particularly big~ but the overall historical atmosphere is very strong. The first Continental Congress was held here. The Second Continental Congress met in Independence Hall and declared American independence. It is a landmark building with special significance in the United States?❗️❗️If you are interested in history, retro, and architecture when you come to Philadelphia, it is highly recommended to visit Carpenter Hall. The combination of traditional and simple styles here also breaks through the fashion and high-end from a modern perspective, which is admirable~”

She was surprised and we had a great time!The event space is very clean with plenty of space to set up tables the way that works best for your event.The most impressive thing about my experience with LUXE Events is that the manager and staff is friendly, attentive, and responds quickly to calls, texts, and emails. Their professionalism is why I am hosting another event soon.”

“Well well well... why didn't I know about this place sooner?! My mommy treated me out for dinner in celebration of my birthday and we decided to eat family style because duah were family but because we are greedy too haha. Anywho.. I was very impressed by the interior as the restaurant was so cute inside--Very dim, and just a complete vibe. Our server was very patient and helpful with guiding us through the menu items. I had a blueberry lemon drop to start out which was very light, sweet and refreshing--My kind of drink. We ordered the salt and pepper wings and trio seafood, along with the string beans, authentic fried rice, shrimp pad Thai, sui mai and for dessert we tried the egg custard buns. Everything was quick, hot, flavorful and just perfect. I have not stopped thinking about this place since, and surprisingly the star of the show for me was the Egg Custard Buns which I tried for the first time and I was super impressed--They were warm, fluffy, and paired perfectly with the sweet custard on the inside, and it wasn't heavy either!! 10/10 across the board for me... Thanks Dim Sum House!”

“This place was a GOD send! We were looking for somewhere intimate to have our micro-wedding. This place was beyond perfect! The owner Laura was the sweetest and most helpful. She also owns the kitchen next door so you have the option to order in-house catering. The place is already beautiful so we didn't have to decorate much. If you're looking for a space to host a nice intimate gathering... this is it!”

“The food, the place, and the atmosphere were amazing and beautiful. The staff and the waiters were very efficient and knew exactly what they were talking about. Once we received our food, we ordered the meatballs and the stuffed mushrooms. Which both came out delicious; but before we ordered we had the manager come up to us and inform us that we couldn't order the mozzarella because they deep-fried everything in one. We had someone at our party who had a shellfish and seafood allergy. We swapped the mozzarella for the stuffed mushrooms. Both came out perfect. After, we ordered our entrees I ordered the chicken alfredo. We couldn't order dessert because of how stuffed we were but they did offer us cappuccinos and coffee after we told them how long of a drive we had to do. Our server had a very great sense of humor and told us to enjoy our nap. We slept very well and would definitely be returning in the future.”

“I truly loved having our 11.3.2023 reception at Front & Palmer. My husband and I eloped in Spain and wanted to showcase our time their through a party here. We originally had been communicating with Lini who left Front & Palmer shortly after we signed our contract. We were connected with Rlyee, who was absolutely amazing. She as so sweet and took notes of absolutely everything. The food was phenomenal! We had people rave our literally everything. The venue itself is like being in an art studio. The vibe is emaculate. The only feedback is really something that was forgotten, which was pulling back the hanging down string lights and curtains near the dance floor ( I specifically requested it because I really hate the look of it. Otherwise, I truly cannot complain. I would have the reception there again if I could. The service was amazing, the staff were kind, the food was literally to die for. Especially the mini tacos and short ribs *drool*. We had paid for 85 people and had 77 show up! Lots of space for easily 50 more people with room left over.”
