Philadelphia Named Late-Night Capital
Philadelphia might not be Pennsylvania’s capital city (thanks a lot, Pittsburgh Allentown Scranton Harrisburg), but looks like it’ll at least be reasserting its spot as a national capital after some 250 years. The authorities over at Esquire have deemed Philly the Late-Night Capital of the United States. Wow, just one more until we finally catch up to South Africa!
In this 12-slide feature, the site lists several places (read: bars) around the city serving food past midnight. Shockingly not on the list? Both Jimmy John’s and McDonald’s. While it’s cool that Esquire could name 14 non-Wawa food dives (read: bars), we hardly think that makes Philly the late-night munchie capital of this glorious, Christian nation.
We get that the Brooklyn hipster foodies are getting on everyone’s last nerve, but Esquire, stop trying to make Philly happen.

Philly is great. Don’t be such a snob.
don’t be such a dick. philly’s awesome.
i’m from NOLA, and i’ve lived in Austin. Philly is DEFINITELY not any sort of late night capital.
I’ve lived in the Philly area all of my life and love it so much that I chose to go to school there too, but even I know Philly is about the farthest from late night capital a major city can get.
