I had no plans for the weekend and last minute decided to go to this festival with my family. We arrived around 3:30 and after 10 minutes of looking for parking we decided on the parking deck which was a great decision considering how packed the festival was. We had a ball, we walked the entire festival area, heard some good live music, ate delicious food (including tacos and street corn), and had some good beer and cocktails. We are beat and that is a sign we had a great time!

A lot of fun in great weather. Lots of food options. Make sure to get the Bavarian pretzel from Brauhaus. Don't forget to look for freebies and food samples too.

It's festival season and the south street festival is not to be missed! Coming from the Rittenhouse Row festival, the South Street festival was totally different. Younger crowd, more flower crowns, more people who got lost on their way to coachella, cheaper beers, less freebies and contests, more random artists, and less stuffy/yuppies. Pro tip: skip Maifest (Brauhaus' clusterf#$! from 7th to about 5th which requires long lines to get tickets to get in longer lines for beer) and enter South Street closer to Headhouse Square. Get a beer/cocktail and some food from whatever truck/stand strikes your fancy (Mom mom's polish food truck-the perogi truck was well worth the wait) and hang out by the live band or the fountain. Chill with friends, love life, use the bathrooms at Twisted Tail. You're welcome.

I've attended this festival the last two years and I'm a fan. This year was much more enjoyable than last, since I didn't have an absurd month-long illness this time around. You can expect large crowds here, but I actually thought the Italian Market Festival was way worse. While this one was packed, you could still freely move around, and that's fine. It's only frustrating when the crowd is so wedged together that it stops in front of you and there's nowhere to go but to awkwardly stand behind people and hope they move. There's a nice mix of vendors and food options at this festival, and I love the Maifest blocks. My group was lucky enough to get a table this year and we held our stake! I don't know why this keeps being held the same day as Rittenhouse Row, but there is fortunately time to make it to both of 'em, so it's okay.

It's not that I hated it, but it caused more of a stress and tension headache than fun. I was overwhelmed trying to survive an apocalypse ! Lines were everywhere. I thought I was going through a puzzle, worse than a nightmare. Oh, good luck finding your way out, it was almost impossible. People literally stop and stood in the middle of everywhere just for the hell of it. The lack of a good structural organization, made it like a mad house! Food, drinks, crafts and music! Two Yelps

After visiting the Rittenhouse Row Spring Festival earlier in the afternoon, I was pumped to make my way down to the South Street Headhouse District Spring Festival. So for a little background, I had low expectations for the Rittenhouse Row fest. After having my expectations exceeded, I really looking forward to hitting up the South Street Headhouse District Spring Festival. Only to have my newly raised expectations and excitement shattered. It reminded me of Night Market with less food options. The lines were out of control. Rather than waiting in line for drinks, we ended up going into a lot of the local establishments off of South Street. The non-food/drink vendors were unimpressive and a little junky in my personal opinion. Having trouble obtaining a decent portion of food, I ended up leaving this festival hungry and disappointed. It was still a gorgeous day and I still had a fun time. I'd even return again next year... just with different expectations.

I don't know what they did different this year but DAMN did I have an awesome time Saturday at this festival! Plus, early morning gray skies made way for a beautiful, not-too-hot partly sunny day. Last year was just okay and I remember the lines being wayyy too long to even get a beer or any discernible type of grub and I also remember most vendors closing much earlier than the 8 PM closing time. This year, perhaps because of the threat of possible rain or better crowd control, the crowds were VERY minimal and the streets were breathable, walkable and there were virtually NO lines anywhere (except maybe the port-o-potties in Headhouse Square, which is to be expected and which moved very quickly anyway). I also think the setup of the food & beverage and retail vendors was different - maybe I'm wrong but the whole thing just seemed planned much better this time around (although I will say Fat Tuesday's tent took up an unnecessary inordinate amount of space). Food options were great, with tons of gourmet food trucks and most South Street places open for business. I opted for a no-name Mexican food cart for some authentic steak tacos (delicious), Lorenzo's pizza (obviously) and Bubble Waffles for dessert (tasty AF). The live bands were really great and the sound system was spot-on (The Band Ivory was my favorite!!). If it's this good next year, I'll definitely be returning!

The advent of the warmer months brings about a great time in Philly - the arrival of multiple street festivals. Recently, the GF and I went down to the South Street Headhouse Spring Festival. Between 2nd and 8th on South Street, the area was cordoned off so food, drink, and music could be enjoyed! Even the kids were out to hock their lemonade! Multiple posts were set up to offer beer on tap, especially around Brauhaus Schmitz, the parent restaurant/beerhall of Wursthaus Schmitz! Brauhaus was celebrating their first annual Maifest. But the first stop for food? Chef Mitch Prensky's Scratch Biscuits. The same Chef Prensky of Supper fame. Picnic Biscuit ($5) Cold fried chicken, creamy corn relish, house pickles The fried chicken was delicious, despite being cold. A meaty addition between subtly sweet biscuits, amidst a corn relish with some bite. Pigscuit ($5) BBQ pulled pork, cabbage slaw, mustard aioli This was a creamier and sweeter biscuit, with the slaw adding texture, and the mustard aioli providing a spicy kick. Some sponsors were clearly out and about. Several bands were on display. As was Batman, Scorpion, and Poison Ivy outside Atomic City Comics. Hot Diggity's mobile operation was offering their delicious 'haute' dogs. Opa! Belly dancers and a Greek band were providing entertainment outside of South Street Souvlaki. Chicken Kebob ($2) The char-grilled chicken was juicy, smoky, and moist. The accompanying BBQ and hot sauce only served to enhance the grilled flavor. The Lil Pop Shop was on hand to offer their gourmet popsicles, something I knew the GF would enjoy. Raspberry Lemonade ($3) This was tart, tangy, and sweet. Not sure if I would regularly spend $3 for these, but they were certainly well made. After what I considered a palate cleanser, we moved on to Copabanana, clearly a play on NYC's historical night club. Copa Burger ($5) The burger was extremely well-grilled, well-seasoned, and juicy, despite being cooked to a well-done consistency. The bun was subtly sweet and housed the innards well. Spanish Fries ($3) This was a mess of grilled onions, jalapenos, and crisp fries. Savory and spicy, these were nice. It was nice to see Lorenzo Pizza back open after their fire last year. And with a random street magician, the South Street Festival was over for another year. Be sure to check out the Italian Market and Rittenhouse Row Festivals this coming weekend!

First time attended the festival and liked it. Lots of people, foods, songs, street performers, different stalls. Fun and festive environment. Everyone in Philly and surrounding should try the experience

I enjoyed the South Street Spring Festival, but it was pretty chaotic. I didn't see any real structure, and the lines for the food trucks were quite long- at least 10 people per line (and that was light--- many were upwards of 25-30). I went with 3 other people, and it was very hard to push through the crowds of people to get--- well, pretty much anywhere. The majority of food, music, and merchants that were there were good, but the lack of organization was frustrating.
