Rittenhouse Square Dining

Discover Philadelphia’s Best Bites and Beverages

Philadelphia is celebrated for its rich history and culture, and the city’s progressive culinary scene is quickly becoming just as famous. This spectacular dining destination is home to world-renowned chefs, nationally acclaimed restaurants, and a long list of local favorites. It’s also home to a.kitchen + bar — AKA Rittenhouse Square’s on-site eatery — which consistently receives plenty of buzz for its versatile menu and award-winning wine list.

A.KITCHEN

Occupying a central, upscale location on Rittenhouse Square, a.kitchen is a sleek contemporary American restaurant that offers innovative small plates and exquisite takes on traditional favorites. Led by Executive Chef Eli Collins, the eatery is known for its refined atmosphere and extensive wine list — named by Zagat and Philadelphia Magazine as the best in the city. Choose between beautiful indoor and outdoor dining areas, and enjoy people-watching and leafy views of Rittenhouse Square.

A.BAR + BOTTLES

This critically acclaimed bar has been honored in many “best bars in the city” lists, including by Philadelphia Magazine, Bon Appetit, and The Village Voice. If you can’t join us for a refreshment or two, then stop by the bottle shop, offering natural wines from the best producers and convenient cocktail kits, mixology accessories, and — of course — to-go drinks.
