In the hours leading up to Night 4 of Center City Sips, let’s turn our attention to Union Trust, shall we?

Since opening at 7th and Chestnut (directly next to last week’s spotlighted spot, Chifa) last year, Union Trust has garnered enough buzz to fill its huge, cathedral-like interior. Philadelphia Magazine even included Union Trust in its Top 50 restaurants, citing the restaurant’s exquisite steaks and service.

Why do we love it? Union Trust is Philly all the way, naming itself after the bank originally housed in the building and calling on local farms for the bulk of the menu’s ingredients.

Why should you go there tonight? Well, with entrees ranging between $24 and (brace yourself) $95, it’s a special treat to dine here on the cheap.

Union Trust’s CC Sips menu runs as follows:

Food
- Cheese plate ($7.50)
- Sliders ($7.50)

Drinks
- Bud and Bud Light ($2)
- House wines ($3)
- Specialty martinis ($4)

And here’s the thing: While some spots in town may fill up quickly because of the deal, Union Trust has room to spare. Just look at that picture, will ya?
