My personal favorites include Vientiene Cafe, Vietnamese hoagies from Fu Wah, Chili Garden, Abyssinia, and Saad's Halal. The hotel is basically on Penn's campus, and there are tons of "fast casual" type places and chain restaurants, plus lots of amazing food carts (cash only). There are many Ethiopian restaurants in West Philly (my favorite is Abyssinia but they are all pretty good). There is vegan food at all of these places (I personally recommend the falafel at Saad's). |
* '''Coffee and breakfast places''': My two favorite West Philly coffee places are Knockbox Cafe and Satellite Cafe. If you like light roast fancypants coffee, people here like Reanimator for that. Most of our coffee places have bagels and pastries and other small food things. If you want '''for real breakfast''', go to Sabrina's Cafe (give yourself time here), Renata's, or Gold Standard Cafe. | * '''Coffee and breakfast places''': My two favorite West Philly coffee places are Knockbox Cafe and Satellite Cafe.
