Genos and Pat’s are tourist traps. If you’re into that and can accept that you’re not getting a great steak, then by all means go ahead, but I would steer clear personally. South Street is fun, the Reading Terminal in center city is awesome. Dinic’s Roast pork sandwich in the Terminal is what I’d recommend, they’re so good. It’ll be warm through the end of September most likely, just bring a hoodie for evenings. If you like weird stuff the Mutter Museum is a must see. On South Street the Magic Gardens are neat. If you like nature you could trek through Fairmount Park or Wissahickon Valley Park.
Oh and for a great place to drink with fantastic views, go to the Cira Green in University City. Very popular with the college kids in the area.
I feel like everyone I know who went there said the magic gardens were cool but too small to be worth paying
