New Orleans
Grace & Proper
Grace & Proper in the Italian Market brings a corner cafe from Lisbon straight to Philadelphia. This vintage European bar occupies the space where G.T. Manilo Drugs once stood for over a century, preserving the corner's history while infusing it with new life. Walk in and grab a seat at the bar, where you can catch the World Cup or just settle into the cozy, buzzy atmosphere. The menu balances seasonally inspired drinks with small plates like cured meats, creamy cheeses, unmissable sandwiches, and meatballs in blackberry romesco. No reservations, walk-ins only, but the intimate setting and genuine neighborhood feel make the wait part of the charm.
