East Passyunk Avenue

Chef-driven restaurants have pushed this once-faded community into the national spotlight. East Passyunk Avenue boasts more than 35 eateries, from authentic traditional Italian restaurants to gastropubs, including twelve of Philadelphia's Top 50 Restaurants.

Anchored by the beautifully restored Singing Fountain, a communal gathering place on Tasker Street, this store-lined commercial corridor hosts events of all shapes and sizes. Annual outdoor favorites include Flavors on the Avenue, the East Passyunk Car Show & Street Festival, Farmers’ Markets and East Passyunk Craft Beer Day.

Notable Events

East Passyunk’s Flavors on the Avenue -  is inspired by East Passyunk’s former Flavors fundraiser held under a tent each year. In 2017, the event went from under the tent and into the street. Capacity expanded from 1,000 guests to becoming the largest event in the history of East Passyunk. The tent is still gone and the event now continues to go from a parking lot to five blocks. Instead of food and drink, the event now includes family activities, music and retail sidewalk sales.
