Opening!

The Cauldron Philadelphia

Double, double, toil and trouble. Philly’s first potion bar this way comes - opening on Friday! Inspired by (but not affiliated with) several magical literary worlds, The Cauldron Philadelphia serves up inventive molecular cocktails and mocktails that smoke, change color or expand — just like, well, magic. Visitors can also purchase tickets to a potion-making class to brew their own alcoholic concoctions in a self-guided lesson with the aid of their very own “magic wand.” Note: Children’s classes are also available, but only on specified dates and times. Get there on SEPTA! Just a short walk from the Walnut-Locust Station on the Broad Street Line.
