Reading Terminal Market is an enclosed public market that features more than 100 merchants. There�s no lack of food there: produce, baked goods, meats, and more can be found throughout this charming venue. The market dates back to the mid-1800s and has seen both ups and downs; the market took a hard hit during the Great Depression but has since revitalized itself. Your guide will tell you all about this historic market and point out some notable stands you should check out; Tommy DiNic�s Pork and Beef, Franks-A-Lot, and Beck�s Cajun Caf� are all musts while visiting.
Your tour includes a free dessert with any entr�e purchase at the renowned City Tavern. You�ve never seen a restaurant like this before: this restaurant is a replica of a historic 18th century gathering place that often hosted the Founding Fathers. The original building was demolished in 1854, but the restaurant has since replaced it. Inside, you can dine on colonial turkey pot pie, braised rabbit, giant cornmeal fried oysters, and other 18th-century-inspired plates.
