This is a must see if you are in the Philadelphia area. I am local and have been here many times over the years and I still return. They gave excellent permanent exhibits and special exhibits. The special exhibit area right now features Jasper John.

The cafe has a large selection of soups, sandwiches, pizza, and salads. I got a burger and fries which was good. I also got soup which was not very warm. My husband got a chicken salad sandwich which was chock full of chicken salad.

Later in the day we stopped at the Balcony Cafe for a cup of coffee and a snack and it was a bit disappointing. First, they did not have any pastries to go with the coffee. Secondly, my latte was super bitter.

The last item I would like to include is their accessibility for those who need it. I have limited mobility and use a walker. They have a drop off area at the West entrance for those with special needs. Also, if you look at their website they do a great job of addressing various needs. They have wheelchairs and canes that you can borrow.

They even go as far as to mention that there are benches in at least every three gallery s. I give them huge props for this to not only have the benches but to mention it on their website. This is a huge concern for me when I plan an outing and it allowed me to focus more on the visit instead of worrying about how well I could navigate the museum. When I was there the staff went out of their way to be helpful.
