Philadelphia’s Premiere Public Space Showcases Food from Local Vendors

The Porch at 30th Street Station, once a congested parking lane and bland, barren sidewalk, has now become one of the most animated public places in Philadelphia, and is a hotbed for workers and commuters seeking gourmet lunch options. The Porch features amenities such as abundant and comfortable seating, sun and shade, trees and plantings, and ongoing performances, fitness classes, and a variety of special events and festivities.

Adjacent to the second busiest train station in the country, between two magnificent historic buildings and within 1,200 feet of over 16,000 jobs, The Porch is part of a key gateway to the Philadelphia region. This summer and into the fall, The Porch will host an eclectic selection of food trucks, and remain one of the marquee spots to dine al fresco in the city. Vending hours will be 11:30-2:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays with breakfast/lunch service on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30am to 2:00pm.  See the complete calendar through December below:
