    This is for the +40 year old Philadelphian. If you want the lowdown on rock shows and beer bars, Pick up a free copy of Philadelphia weekly or the City paper. Or go to Philly . com for the local news and events.

    This is a well written magazine that you can read 6 months later and it is still current. A great buy for doctors or dentists.

    I’ve noticed a pattern over the years with Philadelphia Magazine: The biggest advertisers get the best reviews. The best restaurants who do not pay for add space, do not get good reviews or the “Best of Philadelphia” placards. I would not buy this magazine nor would I read it any more even if it were free. Get the “Philadelphia Weekly” or the “City Paper” for the most current advice on what to do and where to go in Philadelphia. They are what the “Village Voice” used to be: gritty, down to earth and very irreverent toward things we’re supposed to like.

    I followed the bad advice of Philadelphia Magazine for the last time years ago. People who’ve lived here in Philadelphia for a long time, and are in the habit of going out, do not respect the integrity or quality of this magazine. I’m only reviewing it because Amazon insulted me by asking me to subscribe.

    I’ve plucked Philadelphia off the stands two months running & it’s time to get a subscription. The malaise that gripped the mag during the 90s seems to have lifted & they are once again into the entertaining investigative journalism that was their hallmark 15-20 years ago. More mainstream, no longer dedicated to…errr…whatever it was dedicated to post Mike Mallowe which was basically nothing. Would give it five stars but Philadelphia needs to show me that it’s got legs (as in a fine wine…).

    This is your typical city magazine. It highlights all of the different activities, places to see and eat as well as provides reviews of different restaurants, clubs and places to shop. It has an article or two on political / city type current events that the locals may find of interest.
