Juliana Leiser: Do not leave Philly without a stop here, the chocolate hazelnut shake is a must and the amazing Chocolate Martini is a nice sweet night cap!!!!
haveboard finnegan: Apple Chicken Sausages compliment any brunch. Everything on the menu is delicious, no matter what you are in the mood for. It isn't all chocolate. Read more.

9430 Academy Rd (at Grant Ave), Philadelphia, PA
Coffee Shop · Northeast Philadelphia · 33 tips and reviews
Matthew Farley: Try the black tea lemonade. The shaken iced tea is so refreshing. Try it sweet or unsweet. I like it un-sweet. The lemonade already sweetens it enough for me. The passion is good too.
Fanny Yang: This Starbucks does not offer all the products and services. However, it's still one of the rare chains in northeast Philly. Great little place to study, work, and relax. Tables and chairs are scarce.
Richard Schaible Jr: This is the best Starbucks around.

Tapas Restaurant · Center City East · 171 tips and reviews
Richard Revilla: Highly recommend Amada's when in Philly. Tapas are great. Staff very professional and a great environment.
Eater: While Garces isn't in the kitchen, much of the menu is still full of his spirit. Even though it opened in 2005, getting a reservation is still a challenge 7 years later. [Eater 38 Member]
Visit Philly: The perfect spot is located at the end of the main dining room. The chef's counter, with six high chairs, gets you up-close to the action in the kitchen.

13. The Continental Mid-Town

New American Restaurant · Center City West · 200 tips and reviews
Megan Fuhrman: Try the mid town mocha. Light, chocolatey, amazing. The melon drop is equally delicious. And don't let the cheesy exterior deter you...you must actually go all the way in the see how uncheesy it is.
Visit Philly: The rooftop lounge is Mid-town’s pièce de résistance. Partially enclosed so that it’s servicable year-round, the deck area is one of the most popular nightspots in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood.
Philadelphia Magazine: The perfect spot to 1) drink martinis; and 2) drink enough martinis that you won’t be bothered by the fact that you’re drinking with the crowd that frequents the Continental.
