<p>Looking for a BYOB restaurant that is in walking distance or short cab ride from Penn. Large party (25 ppl)</p>
<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>Short cab ride = anywhere in the Center City district… walking home after a BYO night is something adults cannot advise you to do, but from personal experience, it’s fun as hell.</p>
<p>Olive is a fantastic restaurant near 3rd and South. Bistro La Baia is a classic Penn BYO closer to Rittenhouse. There’s always Gnocchi, near 5th and South (on Passyunk). La Viola used to be the standard, but last I heard, they did something that would discourage large groups of Penn kids from coming (expensive weekend menu or something… I dunno, haven’t been there in three years).’</p>
<p>It’s tough to go wrong in the Philadelphia BYOB world… dozens of amazing restaurants all over the place.</p>
<p>On the other side of the city is the classic Don Memos, if you want to the BYOT route (just be prepared to have a terrible morning the next day… and don’t walk back to campus from 69th and Market).</p>
<p>Thank you soooo much!!</p>
<p>Marigold Kitchen is a top-ranked BYOB at 45th and Larchwood or thereabout, so super-easy walking distance from Penn. 25 people there might be a challenge, however, although they could probably give you a whole room.</p>
<p>The SEPTA Blue Line puts you minutes away from some great BYOBs that are more than a short cab ride from Penn – Modo Mio in Fishtown (two blocks from the Girard station) and Koo Zee Doo in NoLibs (near Spring Garden).</p>
<p>If you like margaritas/Mexican food, do Don Memo’s. It will be the greatest night of your life.</p>
