Jay’s Local spot Philly
Breakfast / Brunch
Highly recommend. So many unique options available on their menu. We normally get the yummy-looking Pancake creations on the menu. The staff is so friendly, we thought it was family run. They all have each other's back. Be prepared to wait because this place is jumpin'! They do not take reservation but the near by neighborhood is a great place to explore and walk around.

Lunch / Dinner
One of my favorite spots to take my out of town guests, especially for lunch! I highly recommend advanced reservations. the ambiance is absolutely gorgeous - it feels like such a retreat from the urban concrete jungle as soon as you step inside. The space is bright, spacious and inviting. As soon as you walk in, you are warmly welcomed with the smells of their fresh baked pastries and the aroma of chai latte. In this space there is also a small market where you can peruse a small market full of different spices such as zaatar, rose petals, good olive oil, turkish bowls and more.
The Fatteh is extremely flavorful highly recommend if you're here for dinner.
The Kouign Amann is a must-get pastry. The brittle sugar coating on top is lovely.
The Lebanese Chai Latte is amazing - not too sweet and comes in these beautiful mugs.

This is known as the best chicken spot around. The chicken is juicy, crispy and seasoned to perfection. The chips and pimento cheese dip was amazing with just the right amount of spice! If the Caramelized Onion Dip is available, buy it, it's delicious. You'll never want to buy the jarred kind at the food store again. Deviled Eggs with side of Pickles is a recommended starter.

Amazing ice cream and ice cream sandwiches. Great location near the house and it has a fun range of flavors.
Had a great range fruity, savory, and sweet flavors. It's a small shop, and there isn't any indoor seating available, but they do have some benches outside that you can sit on!
The staff is really sweet and the customer service is great. They also offer pint sizes.
