December 31, 2019 – Despite the spring-like conditions Philadelphia has been experiencing, snow is on its way, and with it, Snow Day Specials!

The below restaurants and bars are inviting guests to come in from the cold to enjoy comfort food staples, brews, and extended snow day happy hours.

While the city might not declare an official snow day anytime soon, this is Pennsylvania so who knows when a flurry might become a blizzard (or a blizzard becomes… nothing).
