Where To Go When You’re Not Sure If It’s A Date - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Going to a bar and grabbing cocktails can be a little tense when you’ll probably know what the person really thinks about you around drink three. But this casual East Passyunk spot next to Townsend EPX is built for nightcaps (their cocktails are some of the best around), sharing small plates, and hanging out under string lights without stress. They have a full dinner menu with everything from charcuterie and roasted duck breast topped with a blood orange marmalade to a brown butter cake to end the night. After a few sips of the coconut-heavy White Lotus, you’ll figure out if they’re looking for a friend or someone to take to their cousin’s wedding." - Candis Mclean
