PHILADELPHIA PA (May 22, 2018)(CNBNewsnet)--Travelling down to the Waterfront this Memorial Day Weekend for Sail Philadelphia Presented by Bank of America or HoagieNation? Be sure to come hungry and thirsty! 


1. Buffalo Bleu chick'n sandwich and banana whips at the new HipCityVeg location at Spruce Street Harbor Park Sustained by Univest. All vegan all the time. 

2. Happy Hour on The Deck Philly at the Moshulu. Be sure to try one of the signature wine pops.

3. New this year at Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest: fried Tastykakes and scrapple. Yeah, you heard that right. 

4. All of the paninis from the Penn's Landing Waterfront Cafe, a Waterfront resident and employee favorite. 

5. "The Sink," a build-your-own-sundae at the S.S. Franklin Fountain at Spruce Street Harbor Park Sustained by Univest or any of the real fruit fancy ices at the Franklin Sugar Shack (black cherry is to die for).

6. Lunch at Keating's Rope & Anchor. A hidden gem on the Waterfront and perfect for families or for lunch meetings. Side note: great live music at their outdoor bar.

7. Due to public demand, frozen strawberry daiquiris and margaritas are now available at Spruce Street Harbor Park Sustained by Univest. Get yours at the barge bar for the perfect summer evening of drinks, hammocks, and lights. 

8. Celebrate Sail Philadelphia Presented by Bank of America with SEAFOOD! Beck's Cajun Cafe will be serving Gator on a Stick, Fried Shrimp & Cornmeal Crusted Catfish Po’Boys, and Fried Mac n' Cheese topped with crab meat. Chickie's and Pete's will be serving up items from their famous "From the Sea" menu including Snowcrab legs and Peel-and-Eat Shrimp at the Sail Philadelphia Beer Garden. Don't forget to BUY TICKETS NOW

9. Kick back on summer nights while aboard the oldest steel warship afloat in the world. The Admiral's Tavern beer garden is popping up again on Cruiser Olympia at Independence Seaport Museum. 

10. You've no doubt tried Chickie's and Pete's CrabFries. Now it's time to try their Sweet and Crabby Kettle Corn, started right here at the Waterfront. 

11. Why settle for food on land when you can take a lunch or dinner cruise with some stunning skyline views on the Spirit of Philadelphia

12. We've learned -- never turn down classic cotton candy from Frozen Delights.

13. Rumor is that the Pier Fries from Morgan's Pier are some of the greatest in town. Best washed down with one of their Watermelon Rickeys.
.
14. A must-try is the Sausage King – a bacon wrapped knackwurst with black truffle & foie gras from Froman’s Beer & Brats, the Impossible Burger at Village Burger, or the shrimp tacos from Distrito, all amazing Garces locations at Spruce Street Harbor Park Sustained by Univest.

15. And last but definitely not least, the all-you-can-eat snow crab nights from Chickie's and Pete's at the Waterfront Crabshack at Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest.
