FCM Hospitality announces the opening of even more socially distanced outdoor dining just in time for this week’s beautiful weather and warmer temperatures.
The Garden at Cherry Street Pier is back for its first-ever full spring, summer and fall season. After a special pop-up preview late last summer, the outdoor waterfront oasis returns with 20,000 square feet of space filled with beer-garden vibes, 250 shaded covered seats, blooming flowers, lush greens, ceiling height trees, historic architecture and the best views in Philadelphia of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.
Get ready to pair stunning waterfront views with seasonal sips and delicious local fare from the same hospitality group that brought you recent openings for Lola’s Garden, Juno and the 10th Season for Morgan’s Pier.
Seating is now available with reservations for up to 250 guests. New this year, look for an updated menu, delivery of food and drink right to your table, an all-new contactless ordering system, and rentals for private events.
The Garden is a top destination for neighbors, city-dwellers and tourists combined – and is one of the largest footprints in the city for an outdoor restaurant. The Garden is perfect for families with little ones by day, and for families, friends and date nights both day and night.
"FCM Hospitality is excited to bring The Garden back to Cherry Street Pier for an entire full season in 2021.Following our recent openings for Morgan's Pier, Lola's Garden and Parks on Tap Cherry Blossom Edition, we are back for a full spring, summer and fall on the Delaware River with an outdoor dining oasis that is your new go-to location for an impromptu staycation, family afternoon or evening date night. We have created an entire pop-up experience on the waterfront that allows patrons to practice physical distancing while soaking up the vibes, views, sips and bites that made this one of Philadelphia's top new outdoor dining destinations last summer."
