Johnny Brenda’s
The local music scene thrives at Johnny Brenda’s, where Justin Beiber was once spotted 🎶
The Fillmore Philly
This venue is actually three-in-one. In addition to the main room, there’s also a bar and lounge, and a mini club that spotlights up-and-coming local acts. I’ve attended multiple concerts at both the Fillmore and I always leave buzzing with joy 😊
Punchline Philly
This iconic comedy club seats 300 people and has a spacious outdoor patio. It also hosts open mic nights, drag brunches, and themed nights. I was lucky enough to see Pete Davidson there, and enjoyed a wood fire-oven pizza during the show 🍕
Brooklyn Bowl
Enjoy a classic bowling night and delicious food and drinks at Brooklyn Bowl, conveniently located right across the street from Punchline Philly! 🎳
