Bloomsday

One of Philadelphia's first bars dedicated to natural wine, Bloomsday sits on the cobblestone stretch of Headhouse Square in Society Hill with the easy confidence of a place that knows exactly what it is. The bottle shop in back stocks the same producers on the list, and the staff will actually walk you through it. The food is seasonal and shifts constantly, somewhere between comfort and experiment: think ham and cheese croquettes, steak frites, and a cookies-and-cream crème brûlée that sounds like a joke until you eat it. Come for dinner, stay for a second glass, and don't skip brunch on the weekends.
