Gourmets around Philly can celebrate another option for marketplace shopping. The Marketplace at East Falls has been open only a short time, but has attracted a variety of specialty vendors. Here’s your chance to do some one-stop shopping without having to step foot into a grocery store.

Peruse the isles filled with culinary creations, everything from handmade pasta at Pappardelle Pasta to Crossing Vineyards and Winery, to Brian’s Best Pastries and you’ll have everything you need to make one scrumptious dinner. For those less inclined to cook, grab a good meal from the Plenti Grand Cafe, who boasts menu items from breakfast munchies to specialty sandwiches like the London Broil Panini.

Philly favs like DiBruno’s cheese and Metropolitan Bakery can also be found in this former home of the world’s first business computer, the UNIVAC 1. What could be better than shopping in the Commercial Digital Computer Birthplace?

The Marketplace at East Falls is open Tuesday through Thursday, from 9 A.M. to 6 P.M. and is open late on Friday til 7 P.M. Weekend hours are 9 A.M. to 6 P.M. on Saturday and 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. on Sunday.
