There are a number of restaurants in Philadelphia running with the “farm to table” concept, but few pull it off with the aplomb of Southwark. This exceptional eatery has developed relationships with over a dozen family farms in Pennsylvania to deliver the freshest, most flavorful ingredients to delighted diners. The menu is diverse and delectable, offering well-proportioned dishes that have incredible flavor profiles. Some of the most popular entrees include the spicy fried quail with creamed corn, bacon, and winter greens as well as the braised pork ribs with bratwurst and sauerkraut. If you’re not feeling hungry, the bar at Southwark is a great place to stop in for a cocktail. Regulars rave about the friendly and intelligent bartenders, who can mix just about anything. Some complain that table service can be a little slow, but it’s not a common thing and the food more than makes up for it.
