not too far of a distance, and sit down?

thanks for your reply, yeah i live a block and a half up the street from the tap room, but i was thinking more of a restaurant type thing

but i'll keep the tap room in mind

Probably one of the places along East Passyunk. There are a lot of restaurants there, and I know a bunch are open for lunch.

(Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I rarely eat lunch out. Dinner's another story.)

If you're looking for something cheap and tasty, you might want to check out El Zarape (on Passyunk, across the street from Cantina Caballitos).

A friend and I ventured in there a few weeks ago, and we were both blown away by how good the food was. The place has zero atmosphere, right down to the plastic tablecloths and the telenovela playing on the TV in the corner. But everything we ate was terrific.

Marra's. Go east on Morris and follow your nose.

Pats and Geno's in only a 15 min walk up Passyunk ave.

You gotta try the Jerk Chicken wings at the taproom.

There are a lot of nice real hometown italian resturants on Passyunk ave. Some with real mob ties!

Care to explain what that means, Cleetus?
