Wow. OINK! Foodie heaven baby! I've been here only twice, but can't wait to go back and explore more. I was introduced to this wonderland by my partner who is from Philly. It's a fresh market and food court with anything & everything and then some. Delilah's - I was sad to hear of their closing. Fried chicken was huge,... More

The church of Pentecost Trenton district Assembly had good time cruising the gospel cruise on May 10th 2013, from the beginning to the end. Our sincere gratitude goes to Vivian Cabrera who worked with us tolerantly, she was very professional, had patience, we began with 30 people and ended up with 107 people. Along the way she had to change... More

I highly recommend that you visit the Reading Terminal Market, with 80 food vendors. There is something for everyone. Cheesesteaks, wraps, chocolate, fruit and vegetables, balsamic dressing, subs and hoagies, Chinese, and much, much more. You will probably have to wait for a table to sit at, but eventually someone will get up and you can take their place. Such... More

Reading Terminal Market is always a great place to visit to shop or eat but now there's a special reason to visit. The new Beiler's Donuts, tucked away in the northwest corner(near 12th and Arch) features some real tasty treats. The rest of the Market is still great but if you don't like crowds or noise, consider an early mornong... More

Cool place with so many choices. You can eat there, but there are also a lot of shops where you can buy fresh bread, meat, fish, etc. And all that with the nustloing athmosphere of a market hall.

It is great for gathering inexpensive spices and ingredients or prepared meals. It can be packed at lunchtime and weekends which is a con. Get there when the Amish are open...they have pretty much the best everything. Ribs, open faced ruben sandwiches.."all american" food. Not comfort food for me but I still tear ir up. And of course if you... More
