Right along Benjamin Franklin Parkway at Cret Park is the Capriccio Cafe and Bar – a place where you can come and get a break from the business of the city. This cafe and bar is outdoor seating, but that doesn’t mean that during the colder month it completely disappears.

A quaint little spot, you can stop by and grab a quick bite in the morning, afternoon, or evening as well as stop for a morning coffee or an evening cocktail. The quick service is impeccable, but I will admit that though I enjoy spending time there getting a quick cocktail during the warmer months, the special time is during the wintertime.

During the winter, Capriccio turns into a little tented and warmed area that is like a little winter wonderland. In one area, you’ll find the bar and cafe area that you know and love, and in the other area, you’ll walk into a holiday-decorated area with couches and chairs as well as a faux fireplace for you to enjoy the seasonal cocktails, drinks, and food, and also enjoy some of the seasonal happenings that occur throughout the season.
