Washington Square is a neighborhood of cute storefronts, and a historic, charming vibe. Sip coffee at an inviting cafe or park bench, explore “Antique Row" and a lively restaurant scene.

Essentials

Not just a "grocery store" but an artisanal beer emporium of local and int'l brews. A few footsteps from the apt's doorstep, it's sweatpants friendly & OPEN UNTIL MIDNIGHT: incredibly convenient.

Drinks & Nightlife

A blue jeans wine bar. Great wine and beer lists, with happy hour and "Sunday school" specials. Tria is a no-hassle meeting spot for a drink or bistro bite (fare is mostly small plates & cheese).

Amazing noodles around the corner, if you're able to get a seat. No call-ahead reservations, but it's worth the wait.

Food Scene

I adore Mixto, a well-rounded Latin/Cuban restau with a full bar. Massive yet careful plates. I recommend it for dinner, but especially for brunch: it's less than two blocks away.

The Moshulu is floating restaurant on Penn's Landing. Who doesn't like dinner on four-masted steel sailing vessel? Penn's Landing/waterfront in general is a fabulous area to jog, stroll or wander.

Arts & Culture

Historic movie theatre on Penn's Landing, usually screening 1-2 films. Easily my favorite matinee in the city. Also check out its sister theatres, the Ritz at the Bourse and the Ritz East.
