This great location is within walking distance -- for the discriminating wine, beer and cheese connoisseur--there is something for everyone.
The original wine, cheese and beer bar.Established in 2004, has become a Philadelphia institution – at least in the minds of Tria’s owners after a few glasses. Tria Cafe was created as a place for people to relax with friends while enjoying great wine, beer and cheese.
There’s no televisions, karaoke, entertainment or other modern diversions. Talk, sip, bite, repeat- menus are small, yet diverse and seasonal, and are complemented by a European-style gourmet light fare.

The original Fillmore is an iconic music venue, first opened in San Francisco in 1965. As a venue, The Fillmore was the focal point for the psychedelic music scene during the 1960s and '70s, helping to launch the careers of acts such as The Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Santana, The Doors, Hot Tuna and many, many others which helped it grow into the legend it is today. We look forward to honoring the spirit of those historic performances because attending an event at The Fillmore offers not only an opportunity to listen to great live music, but to participate in a cultural and history-making music event shared between artists and fans.

Although this is a private club the Heritage Center located on the first floor is a must visit. Founded in 1862 as a patriotic society to support the Union and the policies of President Abraham Lincoln, The Union League of Philadelphia laid the philosophical foundation of other Union Leagues across a nation torn by civil war. The League has hosted US presidents, heads of state, industrialists, entertainers and dignitaries from around the globe and has proudly supported the American military in each conflict since the Civil War.
