Your Perfect Weekend Itinerary

Friday: Arrive in Ardmore, check into your apartment, and take a short stroll to Suburban Square. Enjoy dinner at one of the neighborhood’s outdoor patios as the sun sets. We love DanDan — their happy hour is fantastic. You might also enjoy other local outdoor dining spots like Rosa Mexicano or Lola’s Garden.

Saturday: Start your morning at the Ardmore Farmers Market — we suggest trying a pastry from Stoltzfus Bakery — then hop on the train to Philadelphia (Paoli/Thorndale Line schedule here) for a day of museums, parks, and sightseeing. Our favorites: the Rodin Museum and the Museum of the American Revolution. Head back to Ardmore and stop by Saint Joseph’s University and the Barnes Arboretum before a nice dinner at Izzy’s Cocktail Bar or a show at Ardmore Music Hall.
