The Best Diners In Philly

"A diner with an outdoor garden, multiple bars, and DJs might sound like a drunken fever dream, but in Philly, it exists on Spring Garden Street. Located in a renovated old-school diner, the menu cuisine hops. So you’ll see amped-up crowds sharing everything from solid burgers and glazed salmon to seitan wings pre- and post-dance floor. As a bonus, the kitchen closes at 1am on the weekends. It's that rare place where you can have a decent sandwich and dance to Backstreet Boys under hanging lights after midnight. " - candis mclean
