    For a hospital cafeteria this place is great. It's much better than the food at "The Atrium"…read morecafeteria at Jefferson hospital in center city This place is also called "Anthony's Broad Street Bistro" Pros * Very well priced food * Lots of options from fresh salads to fried chicken * Salad bar is first class and has many options * Salad bar is fresh and has grilled vegetables daily * Lots of seating area both inside and outside * Newly renovated * Great deli station with fresh meats and bread * Hot food station is way better than you would expect from a hospital Cons: * Hours are limited * Deep inside hospital: have to take stairs or elevator down to the "B" level * Lots of busy hospital staff around (it is in a hospital after all) * Can get crowded around lunch time rush (noon-12:45 PM) Bottom line: If you are around methodist hospital and want a cheap bite to eat check it out

    Dubbed "THE South Philly Salad Bar", Methodist Cafeteria offers a wondrous display of colors and…read moreflavors of freshness in their 6x10 foot salad bar. Stuffed to the brim with ingredients ranging from lettuce and peppers to fried eggplant and potato salad, the Methodist Cafeteria's salad bar can't be beat. Bananas also sometimes make an appearance on the salad bar, for some reason. If you ever find yourself in the neighborhood of the basement of Methodist Hospital, meander your way through the loading dock, around the heating pipes, and through the windowless basement hallways to the hidden gem known as "Methodist Cafeteria"--open only a few hours during weekdays. PROS: Wonderfully stocked and fresh salad bar. Has been called, by some, the "best salad bar in South Philly." Perhaps true...perhaps. CONS: In the basement of the cafeteria. How are they expecting to attract outside business by putting this gourmet establishment in the basement?! Other food is often consistent with cafeteria food, albeit decent cafeteria food. Only open a few hours per day during breakfast and lunchtime. No dinner or weekend hours. Why no weekend/dinner hours...? That's the eternal question. (Please note that this is a hospital cafeteria. As such, my "4 stars" is comparing this hospital cafeteria to other hospital cafeterias.)

    What an amazing feeling to be here Inside the manifestation…read moreof an exceedingly wonderful project of the heart. A place that brings together nutrition for all people. The whole operation is just done so well. The food preparation is excellent. And all the different nutrients that they provide! In the service by all the volunteers. So hard-working and the kindest of smilesl Genuine care for us all. The menu is presented, and you can order an appetizer, an entrée, and a dessert. I ordered ZUCCHINI CORN CHOWDER * Creamy Corn, Zucchini, and Potato Soup My bff ordered the GREEKISH SALAD *+ Mixed Greens, Bell Pepper, Chickpeas, Cucumber, Red Onion, Feta, Lemon Dill Dressing MAIN COURSE I ordered PISTACHIO CRUSTED SALMON + Served over Orange Scented Cous Cous and Vegetables Du Jour My bff ordered the SAUSAGE BROCCOLI ORRECHIETTE Ground Sausage, Sauteed Broccoli, Orrechiette Pasta, Garlic Parm Broth Everything was fresh and delicious and just so beautiful. My salmon dish was so plentiful. I did have to have a box for 1/2 of it. If you were interested in additional JBJ Soul Kitchen items like shirts, coffee, cups, travel tumblers they have them available. And you can always leave a little extra for them to pay forward. I'm very grateful to all the people that made this day so special. And I understand that every day they do these kind hearted magical things! But it is quite wonderful to be in the presence of kindness in motion. Thanks to all the people that make it possible from the delivery drivers, servers cooks, the managers, some organizers, the farmers and the farm workers. The people who answer emails and telephones. So many countless kind hearted people who work for the benefit of everyone. Thank you dearly.

We got there on a Friday eventing at 5. Knowing that they don't take reservations and that there aren't that many tables we wanted to make sure that we would get a table. It is a lovely place run by lovely attentive volunteers. The whole backstory and the good they are doing goes beyond what the food tastes like. The restaurant asks for food donations (suggested $30 per person) for a 3 course meal but if you can't afford to pay you can volunteer some time for your food as well. So several tables are filled with homeless men and women who were also dining there. The appetizer and entree were tasty but the dessert (a chocolate brownie) was a bit hard and stale. Overall it was a wonderful experience that everyone should go to at least once.

I finally found that amazing breakfast and brunch spot. I've been looking for for the longest time! I'm not going to be able to tell you when words how great this place is in my review today. You're just gonna have to go there yourself. All I'm saying is that this is far away the best breakfast and brunch place I've ever eaten in my life. And I understand that their lunches are also great which I'm gonna have to do someday but I'm so hooked on their breakfasts that I can't Break free of them. Their fancy scramble breakfast includes fluffy, soft scrambled eggs, along with sort of a Pusheta tomato base with fresh Muzzarella! This is about as close to heaven as you can get. Look at my picture and order this breakfast when you go. The only catch is that toast is not included with breakfast so I always order a piece on the side. Another time I had their Mediterranean omelette! Which is basically a Greek omelette which put me in heaven as well! I wanted to try something else on their menu and it did not disappoint. You could see my picture too, again with this dish I did order a piece of toast on the side. The vegan stack is also outstanding and a unique dish to offer for breakfast! Every bite delicious! I highly recommend this place for breakfast or brunch or even lunch. If you're reading this review, you must go there! Make a point of getting here someday as soon as you can, I promise you you won't regret it!!

    This place was SO COOL! I live in Baltimore and I think what Reading Terminal Market is is what ALL…read morethe marketplaces in Baltimore strive to be...and are failing miserably. This place was HUGE. It went on for miles in all directions. There were tons of people filling all the space. It was tight in there. I had to use all my aggressive navigation skills to get around. I was also constantly rubber necking to take in all the food stalls and vendors. I could have spent an entire day there exploring and would have seen maybe a third of what's there. Unfortunately I was only in town for a day, so aside from quickly walking through, I stopped at a bar for a really good cider. Overall, excellent visit and I definitely want to go back!

As it turns out, everything is available. Cheeses, meats, donuts, ice cream, candies, desserts, coffee, and everything in between to include small rocks and crystals. Realistically you can spend a good 3-4 hours in this market alone. Wandering the aisles, ordering various food options from various vendors and then finding a seat to sit down and enjoy your food. That last part, finding a table to sit down and eat your food could be a bit tricky. When we first arrived at the market it was 9:30 a.m. and we were able to find a seat without much trouble. When we returned to the market for a second time, around 1:30 p.m. it was noticeably more packed inside and I had to do two loops before a table cleared up. There are so many vendors inside you really can't even come close to trying them all in one visit. I would like to come back and try some more places next time. As for parking, I was told to park at the Convention Center parking structure, but when I arrived there was a large sign stating that parking was full. I ended up finding a public parking lot at Commerce & N. 13th St which I parked at, but after 4 hours or so I think it cost me about $50. To be expected, unfortunately, for big city parking.
