Espresso Martini Bar Crawl Is Back in Northern Liberties This March

Spring is arriving early in Northern Liberties — and it’s bringing caffeine, cocktails, and one of Philly’s most buzz‑worthy food and drink events. The 3rd Annual Northern Liberties Espresso Martini Bar Crawl returns on Saturday, March 14, 2026, from 11 AM to 4 PM, and this year’s celebration is bigger than ever with 20+ participating bars, restaurants, and retailers.

Hosted by the Northern Liberties Business Improvement District and sponsored by Aversa PR & Philly Publicist, this beloved crawl invites locals and visitors to explore Philadelphia’s fastest‑growing neighborhood through creative, coffee‑infused cocktails. Expect $8, $10, and $12 specialty espresso martinis, ranging from classic preparations to inventive creations topped with cheese, garnished with flair, and infused with bold flavor twists.

Guests can sip their way through favorites like Amina, Bar1010, North 3rd, Newsroom Philly, North Bowl, El Camino Real, Jerry’s Bar, Silk City, Standard Tap, The 700, Urban Village, Yards Brewing, and many more. Each stop will compete for bragging rights — including Best Classic, Most Creative, and Best of the Day — making it the perfect chance to taste Philly’s most imaginative martini variations in one afternoon.

The crawl doesn’t stop at cocktails. Select restaurants will offer coffee‑infused food specials and St. Patrick’s Weekend tie‑ins, while retailers roll out espresso‑inspired surprises. Attendees can enjoy treats like espresso‑themed baked goods from Madison K Cookies, espresso martini ice cream from Milk Jawn, scented body products from Ray’s Reusables, and themed beauty experiences at Ends Hair Design and The C‑Room Nails and Spa.

There’s no cost to attend, and all drinks, food, and retail specials are pay‑as‑you‑go — making it easy for anyone to join the fun. With Northern Liberties growing rapidly and its dining scene earning national attention, this event perfectly highlights why the neighborhood has become a destination for brunch lovers, cocktail enthusiasts, and local explorers alike.
