Caribou Cafe is a true Parisian bistro in the heart of Center City. Its menu of "Cuisine Regionale" is great for any occasion, be it lunch, dinner or a light bite. The French theme and ambiance is further accented by a sleek wine bar, live jazz on Fridays and Saturdays, a lively sidewalk cafe and a casual weekend brunch.
The classic bistro menu has received rave reviews from local and national critics alike and is supplemented by several daily specials. Sit back and let trained servers suggest a wine to pair with your entrée — Caribou’s extensive wine list features several excellent French varieties in addition to other noted international vintages. An added bonus: no bottle will cost you more than $39.
Or, if you prefer, the marble-topped bar is also a great place to dine. Daily chalkboard specials are not only consistently excellent, they're also extremely wallet-friendly. And the extensive wine and beer list is an attraction in and of itself and a perfect accessory to your meal.
In the end, locals, businessmen, doctors, theater-goers and visitors all agree — Caribou Café, winner of Philadelphia Magazine's Best of Philly® French Restaurant in 2004, is the closest thing to Paris in Philadelphia.
