Philadelphia Food Tours with Chef Jacquie
Philadelphia Food Tour Experiences Led by a True Local
What makes StrEATS of Philly Food Tours different starts with Chef Jacquie herself.
Born and raised in South Philly, Jacquie didn’t just study these neighborhoods — she grew up in them. She knows the families behind the storefronts, the history of each block, and the stories that shape Philadelphia’s food culture because she’s lived them.
On every food tour, Jacquie blends generous food tastings with rich storytelling about immigration, family-owned businesses, and how neighborhoods evolve through food. Local vendors greet her by name, shop owners welcome her like family, and that genuine community connection naturally extends to every guest who joins the tour.
What could feel like a simple walk becomes something much more — an experience filled with laughter, meaningful conversation, unforgettable bites, and a deeper understanding of the city through the people who feed it.
That personal, rooted approach is what defines StrEATS of Philly — and why guests consistently say they don’t just leave full, they leave feeling connected to the community itself.
