"Legend has it that Fishtown was named by Charles Dickens, but you should take that with a grain of salt. Traditionally a working-class Irish enclave, today, trendy Fishtown is a mix of blue-collar and young professionals. Philadelphia’s latest everything is happening in Fishtown: bars, restaurants, art, and music scenes." - MATADOR_NETWORK
