The Best Brunch Date Spots in Philadelphia
A Philadelphia date can stay in Center City or make more room for a neighborhood outing. The guides mix dining and coffee with riverfront and park options, each with a specific place to begin.
A daytime date leaves the rest of the day open. These five brunch options have different settings, from a neighborhood breakfast stop to a restaurant where you can make more of the meal. Check the current brunch service and menu before heading out; a restaurant serving dinner all week may have a more limited brunch schedule.
This selection includes The Dandelion, The Love., Cafe La Maude, Harper's Garden and Talula's Garden. Use the map and practical details below to pick the one that fits your date.
The Dandelion
British pub-inspired cooking in Center City. Make this the main event of a daytime date, with enough time to settle in over the meal. Use the restaurant website to confirm brunch hours and the current menu.

A Rittenhouse-area restaurant from Aimee Olexy. A useful starting point when you want to meet earlier and keep the rest of the day flexible. Use the restaurant website to confirm brunch hours and the current menu.
