Philadelphia is known as the City of Brotherly Love, but it is also renowned for great, decadent food. Try a variety of foods that are uniquely Philly, including tomato pie and Philly cheesesteak, while learning fun, historical anecdotes about the neighborhood of Manayunk.

Just a few miles from the Philadelphia city center lies 300-year-old Manayunk, which was once home to thriving cotton mills. The mills switched from cotton textiles to wool textiles in order to provide blankets for troops during the Civil War. Manayunk is now home to over 30 restaurants and numerous specialty food stores, many of which are generations old and family-owned and operated.

Along this food tasting route that hugs the scenic Schuylkill River, you stop for samples at delis, bakeries, and specialty shops, most of which are known only by locals. Mouth-watering samples such as cheesesteaks, sticky buns, stuffed breads, tomato pies, and red velvet cupcakes await as you visit 6 different locations.
