Nestled in the heart of Philadelphia, Bake'n Bacon stands out not only for its unique bacon-centric menu but also for its vibrant, inclusive atmosphere. As a proud Black-owned business, Bake'n Bacon is committed to serving a diverse clientele, making it a popular choice for locals and visitors alike. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty brunch or a relaxed dinner, this restaurant has something to offer everyone.

Bake'n Bacon proudly holds the title of Philadelphia's first bacon-themed restaurant, drawing food enthusiasts from all over the city. Its menu features an array of both brunch and dinner items, ensuring guests can enjoy the culinary creativity that this establishment brings to the table. The star of the show, of course, is bacon—served in innovative ways that elevate traditional dishes into something truly special.

Brunch hours at Bake'n Bacon are particularly popular, spanning from 10 AM to 2 PM. This is the ideal time to stop by and savor a delightful meal. During my first visit, I had the pleasure of experiencing the restaurant during dinner service. I opted for the Vegan meatballs with a delicious side of fries, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Everything was not only tasty but also fairly priced, earning compliments to the chef!

Recently, I returned to Bake'n Bacon for brunch and decided to expand my palate. I started with their Vegan hash browns, which were crispy and packed with flavor. For the main course, I indulged in the Bourbon Banana French toast—an absolute treat! The portion sizes are generous; I was so stuffed that I couldn’t finish. Thankfully, the accommodating staff provided me with a to-go box, ensuring I could savor the deliciousness later.

What makes Bake'n Bacon even more appealing is its inclusive menu. It offers a variety of options catering to different dietary preferences, including a kids' menu and vegan dishes. The drink menu is equally impressive, featuring refreshing non-alcoholic mocktails and crafted cocktails that can elevate your dining experience during brunch or happy hour, which runs from 4 PM to 7 PM. The restaurant closes its doors at 9 PM, except on Mondays and Tuesdays when it's closed. For those looking to avoid the weekend rush, visiting on a Wednesday or Thursday evening after work can provide a relaxing dining experience.

Don’t just take my word for it—Bake'n Bacon has gained notable recognition in the media. In 2023, the restaurant was featured in news stories by PHL17.com and 6abc.com, and it received a write-up in the Inquirer. These accolades reflect the growing popularity and influence that Bake'n Bacon has in the culinary scene of Philadelphia.

In addition to its fantastic food, Bake'n Bacon has recently expanded its offerings with the launch of Level Two Venue, a new event space on the second floor. This venue aims to host a variety of exciting events and has already welcomed some intriguing visitors for tours.
