CO-OP Restaurant & Bar is Giving Away 100 Funnel Cakes to Students for World Student’s Day
In honor of World Students’ Day, CO-OP Restaurant & Bar, a contemporary, bright, and airy restaurant in The Study Hotel, smack between the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University, is spreading the love through a very special giveaway on Saturday, October 15. The first 100 students (with valid photo ID) to visit CO-OP between 7 am and 10 pm will receive a complimentary Funnel Cake.
Exemplifying the neighborly ethos that co-op communities have cultivated throughout history, CO-OP’s recent rebirth champions the inherent philosophies of community, connection, and culinary heritage. The restaurant’s inspiration draws from regional cooking techniques brought over from many diverse migrant communities that settled along the East Coast since the 19th century. Funnel cake, the beloved sweet treat originally known as drechderkuche in Pennsylvania German, serves as a perfect example of Pennsylvania’s historical culinary tapestry.
CO-OP is open daily from 7am to 10pm, CO-OP offers breakfast, lunch, dinner, brunch, with the bar serving 4pm – 10pm. The restaurant will expand to a refreshed brunch menu featuring in-house baked breads and pastries with hyper-regional influence, in the coming weeks, plus a takeout menu exclusively available through an activated window along Chestnut Street.
