The Dandelion has to be one of the coziest spots in Philly. Charming decor and a stylish bar make it perfect for a casual outing. I indulged in the Homemade Ricotta, which was divine, and the Fish and Chips - though I found the breading a tad salty.

Service was a bit slow due to the crowd, but our server had a positive attitude. I loved the vibrant atmosphere and unique drink selection, a great place for brunch or a relaxed dinner experience. 🌟

The Dandelion offers a charming atmosphere paired with a delightful menu. I loved the London Fog cocktail and the shepherd's pie, which was comforting and hearty. Save room for the sticky toffee pudding - it's pure bliss! Service was welcoming. Can't wait to return!

The Dandelion is a charming spot in Philadelphia that perfectly blends cozy vibes with a historic atmosphere. 🍻 I indulged in their decadent sticky toffee pudding and the London Fog cocktail, both of which were outstanding! The root vegetable soup was rich and comforting, making it a must-try!

While the space can get a bit loud during peak hours, the service was quick and attentive. I also loved the variety on their menu, from classic burgers to delightful small plates. Don’t skip dessert! I’ll definitely be returning for more deliciousness soon! 😍
