Front Street Cafe: Fishtown’s Farm-to-Table Gem

A Farm-to-Table Haven in Fishtown with Lush Outdoor Dining

Fishtown’s Front Street Cafe stands as a beacon of fresh, farm-to-table dining in Philadelphia. Known for its seasonal menus, sustainable sourcing, and inviting atmosphere, this all-day café, bar, and restaurant has long been a staple for locals and visitors alike. With its sprawling, pet-friendly Garden now reopened, Front Street Cafe is ready to elevate outdoor dining to new heights this season.

The Garden comfortably seats up to 80 guests, offering a mix of open-air and covered areas perfect for al fresco dining, private events, or casual evenings under the stars. With its own dedicated bar, guests can sip on handcrafted cocktails and locally brewed drafts while enjoying the ambiance of Fishtown’s booming cultural scene. The seasonal reopening also brings the much-anticipated return of Front Street Cafe’s weekly food and drink specials, alongside live music every Thursday starting at 5 PM.

Front Street Cafe: Weekly Food and Drink Specials

At Front Street Cafe, every night brings something unique to the table. Tuesdays kick off with the iconic Burger & Beer Combo for just $15, featuring your choice of a Short Rib Blend, Chipotle Turkey, or FSC Veggie Burger—each served on a fresh brioche bun. To wash it down, Kenzinger drafts are just $3 all day, making it the perfect midweek indulgence.

Wednesdays spotlight a variety of shareable options with ½ Off Apps or Flatbreads when paired with any full-price food item. Fan favorites include the Buffalo Cauliflower, with its perfect balance of heat and crunch, the creamy Vegan Mac N’ Cheese, and the Truffled Mushroom Flatbread, which boasts rich flavors of earthy mushrooms and decadent truffle oil.

Thursdays are special at Front Street Cafe. Starting at 5 PM, the Garden comes alive with live music and unbeatable specials. Guests can savor $3 tacos, $8 CityWides, and enjoy ½ off flatbreads with the purchase of a CityWide. For those seeking something a bit stronger, margarita pitchers are on offer for $22 (classic) or $27 (flavored), making it easy to share the love with friends as live music sets the tone for a perfect evening.

Front Street Cafe: 4-3-2-1 Happy Hour

The fun doesn’t stop with weekly specials. Front Street Cafe also delivers a generous 4-3-2-1 Happy Hour, running Monday through Friday from 4 PM to 7 PM. This progressive happy hour features $4 off specialty mocktails, $3 off wines by the glass, $2 off draft beers, and $1 off all cocktails. It’s the ideal way to unwind after a long day, whether you’re soaking up the last bit of sunlight in the Garden or cozying up at the bar.

For those who prefer non-alcoholic options, Front Street Cafe’s mocktails are offered. Crafted with the same attention to detail as their cocktails, these drinks deliver full flavor and creative flair without the buzz. Pair one with their seasonal bites, and you’ve got a proper midweek treat.

Whether you’re looking for a cozy brunch spot, a lively evening out, or a serene outdoor dining experience, Front Street Cafe consistently delivers. Its farm-to-table philosophy, paired with its commitment to fresh, local ingredients, makes every dish memorable. And with the newly reopened Garden in full swing, there’s never been a better time to experience what this Fishtown gem has to offer.
