"Sure, if you were childless you might come to Cantina on East Passyunk for the customizable tacos and excellent margs. But because you’re saddled with a tiny dictator or two, you're coming here for the huge gated patio—and, you know, the margs. Sit outside and order nachos and beef quesabirria. And if the weather isn’t in your favor, the main dining room is festive and (just as) kid-friendly. " - alison kessler
"Cantina Los Caballitos has one of the best Happy Hours in the city, and it’s even better when it’s warm outside. They have a huge patio right off East Passyunk, and from 4-6PM on weeknights you can get $20 pitchers of frozen margaritas to split between you and a few coworkers. Pair that with nachos or a plate of shrimp tacos and you have the perfect reason to take a summer Friday every week until Labor Day." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"When: Monday-Friday, 3-6pm, And Sunday & Monday, 10pm-12am The Deal: $2 Draft Beer, $6 Margaritas, $20 Margarita Pitchers, And $3-$5 Small Plates Cantina Los Caballitos is a Passyunk Avenue classic, and has one of the largest patios in the neighborhood. This isn’t where you come to sample mezcal and discuss floral notes and hints of smoke. This is where you come to drink gigantic pitchers of margaritas, chow down on cheap, spicy hot dogs and tacos, and nod along as your friend complains about her ex. " - candis mclean
"Cantina Los Caballitos is in the big orange and blue building on East Passyunk Avenue, and if you still can’t find it, look for the huge patio that takes up what should house a whole second restaurant. They serve solid Mexican food that tastes even better when you’ve had a few margaritas, and it's where you should spend your Saturdays in the summer. Even if it’s not 85 and sunny outside, they still have a great Happy Hour where you can get $3 sangria and $15 pitchers." - candis mclean
