"People flock to Reading Terminal Market for everything from donuts to a lotion restock, so it’s no surprise that the blueberry flapjacks from Down Home Diner draw a crowd. It’s one of the largest vendors in the massive Center City market, and has multiple wooden booths and metallic tables. You’ll see everyone from families to coworkers grabbing breakfast or a scrapple-topped burger (it’s dry, so skip it). Breakfast here is the winner—especially the scram bowl that’s pretty much a feast of eggs, home fries, and spicy sausage in one heap, and it’s served all day. Weekends are extremely busy, so stop by early or on a Tuesday afternoon while everyone is in a meeting that could’ve been an email with their boss." - Candis R. McLean
