Center City District SIPS in Philadelphia

Written by Stephanie Taylor, Editor-in-Chief, Intelligent Luxury

I love Philadelphia. I lived in Philadelphia on my own and I shop in Philadelphia. Temple University is the best university on earth! Temple University is my alma mater. I actually shopped in North Philadelphia for clothing, food, alcoholic drinks, beverages, and hair products. Center City is where I shopped the most when I lived in Philadelphia for many years. Center City stores and retailers sell diverse denim. Luxury retailers sell clothing, fine jewelry, and gourmet cuisine. Stride in Center City in your flat shoes from Market to Chesnut to Walnut to South Street to Wells Fargo Center.  You can walk to South Street, however, take SEPTA or a taxi to South Street.  Tu caminas en el ciudad in Philadelphia. Philadelphia is a city that eats! Art: sculptures, paintings, music, and literature in Philadelphia teaches people about all art genres. My Free Library of Philadelphia Library library card gave me free art.

Center City District SIPS is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This June 5, 2019 through August 28, 2019 more than 80 bars and restaurants. South Street stores sells African, European, and all types of art! Police in Philadelphia assist tourists! Take a photograph with a police officer!

Among those locations, three venues offer an experience unlike the others. Dilworth Park, Cret Park and Sister Cities Park are all included in this year’s promotion.

These Center City District parks are home to unique and locally run cafes that will offer half-price appetizers, $6 EFFEN Vodka specialty cocktails, $5 wine and $4 beer from 5 p.m.-7 p.m. on Wednesday nights throughout the season. Their individual specials and entertainment will include:

Center City District SIPS at Dilworth Park presented by EFFEN:

Surrounded by the shadow of City Hall, the Dilworth Park Café is located among the hustle and bustle of downtown Philadelphia. Summer favorites like Victory Summer Love and trendy cocktails, including $6 EFFEN Vodka and Hornitos tequila specials, will be served on the outdoor patio. Half-price appetizers, $5 wine and $4 ice-cold Bud Light cans will also be offered.

Each week, a local DJ will spin until 8:30 p.m. That lineup includes:

August 14: Osagie
August 21: Shearn
August 28: Leon Xavier

A SEPTA’s subway and trolley station is near the Dilworth Park. Dilworth Park is on Market Street and North 15th Street in Center City in front of City Hall.   The Temple University Alumni Association will host Temple Takeovers featuring additional Temple-themed cocktails and drink discounts, as well as a chance to mix and mingle with fellow “Owls.”

Schedule is subject to change. Dilworth Park is located at 1 S 15th St (West Side of City Hall), Philadelphia, PA 19102.

Center City District SIPS at Cret Park:

Tucked away among the foliage and artistry at Cret Park, Capriccio Café & Bar is a quiet spot for friendly Sippers. Housed in a glass pavilion with outdoor seating, the venue will offer fun, yet sophisticated food and beverage specials, such as $6 EFFEN Vodka cocktails and half-priced appetizers. Guests looking to escape the wrath of city swelter can stop by for a quick drink or unwind after work without the hoopla of larger locations. This neighborhood staple will become your go-to happy hour hangout.

Cret Park is located at 16th St & the Benjamin Franklin Pkwy (110 N 16th St), Philadelphia, PA 19102.

Center City District SIPS at Sister Cities Park:

The newly opened Sister Cities Café is a one-stop-shop for drinks, grub and relaxation. Offering everything from coffee to cocktails, this gourmet eatery has indoor and outdoor seating, a green roof and massive glass windows. Sister Cities Park, located on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, is famous for its kid-friendly amenities, such as the Earth Fountain and the Children’s Discovery Garden and Boat Pond.

Parents familiar with the spot will love this season’s SIPS specials, which include $6 EFFEN Vodka cocktails, $5 wine, and $4 Bud Light beer. Neighbors and tourists will enjoy the café’s laidback digs, a refreshing option compared to more energetic venues.
