Guidebook for THE FLAT
Great Bars and Restaurants
These are the places closest that I personally enjoy
Only a 15 minute walk from The Flat, Lark is one of the best restaurants the city has to offer. You need to make reservations well in advance, although they do have open bar seating as well. The views and atmosphere are great. This is my go to place for a special occasion and its as good as any restaurant in Center City so you can save yourself an Uber fare.

Sightseeing
This CLOSED Penitentiary was the first to be build in the US and does excellent guided tours, well worth checking out where Al Capone spent some of his time, if you have some time.
