  • Good for business meals
  • Great for brunch
  • Charming
With its delicious, approachable menus and upbeat ambiance, Square 1682 has become a beloved Center City gathering place thanks to Chef Patrick Czerniak's great food, great drinks and great people. Our New American fare could be described as: worldly, progressive, delicious, artfully presented, healthful and comforting. Time and again, loyal patrons return to the Architects Building in Rittenhouse Square for restaurant draws like popular brunch specials, the raved-about Square Burger, one of the country’s top bar programs and seasonal patio seating. If you’re hosting an intimate dining affair for a small or large group, be sure to explore our private dining options, too.

    Wow--I was really impressed with Square 1682. I've stayed in the hotel, the Kimpton Palomar, multiple times, but I haven't ever eaten at the restaurant. Now that there's a fee for a room, but which comes with a $20 credit for the restaurant, I tried it for breakfast, and I have to say, it was one of the best restaurant breakfasts I've had in a long time--particularly the hash browns, which I often don't like at places. The service was fantastic as well, from the host who was about the nicest person ever to the wonderful server. I would go back, even without the hotel credit!

    My friend and I had lunch on a weekday. We each ordered the Square Burger, which came with either fries or a lovely salad, drinks, and the Polish Olive Oil Cake for dessert. We enjoyed it all. Our server was very professional, answered all of our questions, and was friendly. I left an item behind, and she called my cell phone and set it aside for me.

    It's a pleasant place to dine. I was invited to sit in the spacious lobby to wait for my guest. Comfortable seating, tables, water. The Caesar salad was tasty but it was served in a very small bowl and spilled all over the table. I prefer to see actual anchovies rather than mashed into dressing. Servers were very nice but a bit stingy with the ice cubes. No decaf coffee available. I would recommend if someone wants to dine in a place that is not crowded and has a pleasant atmosphere.

    I am always happy with my lunches with friends at 1862. The staff is always pleasant, attentive & accommodating. They let us stay as long as we want. Everyone is always with their meal. I already look forward to another lunch there soon.
