Celebrating Our 23rd Year!
Welcome to Rembrandt's Restaurant and Bar home page. I cordially invite you to tour our website. Rembrandt's is located in the Fairmount Section of the Art Museum Area in Philadelphia. We offer romantic fine dining in our elegant dining room and a turn-of-the-century, friendly, neighborhood bar and an adjacent comfortable café. Our banquet facilities feature a striking view of the Philadelphia City Skyline and a fireplace cocktail lounge. Our prices are reasonable, our parking is ample and we are only a 5 minute walk to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and a 5 minute drive (or 20 minute walk) to and from the downtown area of the 6th largest and most historic city in the United States. Hopefully you will discover Rembrandt's when you come to Philadelphia.

REMBRANDT'S
TEXAS HOLD EM' TOURNAMENT
Rembrandt's hosts a Texas Hold Em' tournament every Monday
evening starting roughly at 7:30PM for sign in. Entry is free.
Prizes are dependent on the number of players and the whim of the occasional
sponsor. Join us every Monday to try your luck or just come in to learn how to
play. Early-outs can play darts, watch one of our large screen TV's or
start up another poker game on one of our other tables.
Rembrandt's Cafe, features two large screen (42" and
50") HD Plasma TV's to compliment the two large HD TV's in the original bar, a
new oak bar with a turn-of-the-century kneeboard (originally from Strawbridge
and Clothier third floor coffee shop), swiveling turnstile columns which display
our liquor selections. Originally conceived as a non-smoking bar,
Rembrandt's embraces fully the new city code requiring bars and restaurants to
be smoke free.
Rembrandt's now offers 5 styles of authentic Italian pizza
made in our new wood burning brick oven. We have heard only good response
to our newest menu item. Take-out is available but the best way to enjoy
these pizza's is right out of the oven with an ice cold draft beer. Menu
selections and the Executive Chef's philosophy about his pizzas is rolled out
inside.
Note: On March 31, 2005 Rembrandt's was in Craig Lebans
list as one of the best Pizza Restaurants in Philadelphia.
Details here:
New Note: In the
August 2006 issue of Philadelphia Magazine,
Rembrandt's was chosen as the best brick-oven pizza in the city.

Fairmount Arts Crawl. Artists from both Fairmount and surrounding areas

FRIENDS
OF EASTERN STATE PENITENTIARY PARK
This CDC is actively pursuing an approach to the highest and
best use of the area on the eastern and northern borders of Eastern State
Penitentiary on Brown and Corinthian Streets. After years of discussion,
disagreement, disillusionment and eventual decision making, it appears that they
have arrived at an excellent solution. Now they need the help and support
of the neighborhood to continue their plans. Their website is accessible from
here. 
FAIRMOUNT
ASSOCIATIONS
The Community of Fairmount has two very dynamic
organizations created to improve the quality of life in our neighborhood. The
Fairmount Civic Association is a member driven organization which charges annual
dues of $15.00 per year per person. The Fairmount Community Development
Corporation is a non-profit group whose mandate by their board of directors is
to develop community based improvements to our neighborhood. You can join the
FCA and take an active part in decisions, events and activities in your
neighborhood and by doing so you can also effect the ideas and decisions of the
Fairmount CDC . Check in here to find out what is of interest in the area. OUR
