Cheap Eats
Not normally a go-to for inexpensive food options, Sprouts has a clearance rack with some of the best food deals I've ever seen. Highly recommend stopping by this location before beginning your day of adventures to pick up a few snacks for the day. Clearance rack is located on north side of store near the rest rooms (just ask an employee and they'll help you).
Wednesday $5 sushi can be a great grab-and-go item also

One of the best deals in town for authentic sushi when you use their Groupon: https://gr.pn/34nRJei
According to Philadelphia Magazine:
The place looks like a very small nightclub, has a weird name, and offers cheese fries on the menu (seriously — kimchi frites with sesame sauce and Whiz). But their sushi selection is also rather remarkable. People love the joint and swear by the kitchen’s specialty rolls.

According to Philadelphia Magazine:
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a menu bigger than the one offered by Koto. Seriously, they’ve got everything from miso soup to Hawaiian poke, hibachi meals, bento boxes, yakitori, AND some of the best sushi in the neighborhood. The neighbors love this place because of the service, and because the prices run a little bit on the cheap side for fish of this quality.

Food scene
Easily one of the friendliest waiting staffs I've ever seen. When I stepped into this coffee shop and restaurant to avoid a rain shower they not only let me stay past closing to avoid getting wet, but also gave me a free croissant to boot. Highly recommend!
