When my little sister Carrie was showing us the streets of Philadelphia recently, she couldn’t wait to hear our review of the corn pancakes and brioche french toast at her favorite brunch spot: Devil’s Alley. But as much as we enjoyed our meal, we couldn’t help but get distracted by how well designed the restaurant around us was.
So we just had to whip out our camera and snap a few pics of this – are you ready? – former empty alley space between two buildings. Talk about a major transformation. Check out their modern mix of wood, metal, and natural greenery throughout the space. Can’t complain about a meal that was delicious and inspiring, can we?
Devil’s Alley Bar & Grill is located at 1907 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square area (did I get that terminology right, Philadelphians?) Let us know if you’ve ever checked it out – especially since it looks like its quite a different and equally cool experience at night.

This is so neat! Just start saying “Philly” now and you’ll sound like a local :)

Good friends of mine live in Philadelphia and we have gone to Devil’s Alley for late night dinner and drinks. They’ve got fabulous nighttime fare and the ambience is just downright cool.

I love the Devil’s Alley, my husband and I went on our second date here, since then it’s one of our favorite dining spots. It’s so cool to see it featured here. The food is delicious and the decor is fab!

Ok, Jersey Girl, I’m practicing – Philly, Philly, Philly…
Also glad to see we’re not the only ones who think Devil’s Alley is great. Shan, how cool that you guys shared your second date there. I would love to try their dinners at some point. Although I could see myself going for dinner and begging for that french toast again. Mmmmm…
