The Best Restaurants In North Philly - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Champs Diner is smack in the middle of Temple University’s campus. And because of this, you’d think it would be full of overflow from the Liacouras Center or the city's second-worst AMC theater that’s across the street. But this small corner spot is only open from 6:30am-2pm daily, so it’s more of a meetup for students cracking open an art book while downing a fruit-topped waffle. The daytime menu isn’t just surprisingly impressive breakfast sandwiches and western omelets. They also have quality seafood—think peppery salmon cakes and shrimp—and egg platters for under $15. That’s a price tag that can come in handy, especially for undergrads who have more books to buy next week." - candis mclean
