About The Porch
We love local, and we support the community that supports us by buying local whenever possible. From our menu items to our building and rooftop garden, local sourcing is a core part of The Porch.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's Your Culinary Philosphy?
We believe that the best meals start with the best ingredients – and that means fresh and local. Right next to our outdoor porch, we nurture an annual garden so that we can use fresh-picked herbs and produce in our kitchen everyday. We’re also proud to partner with local producers & distributors like Penn’s Corner Farm Alliance and Wild Purveyors. You can check out some of our other local partners here.
How would you describe your style of service?
The Porch changes pace throughout the day:
I’m a student. Do you accept any student payment cards?
Not at The Porch at Siena, but check out our sister location in Oakland. The Porch at Schenley accepts Panther Funds and Plaid Ca$h.
I HAVE A KILLER BOTTLE OF ’97 NAPA CAB IN MY CELLAR THAT I’VE BEEN DYING TO TRY. AM I ABLE TO BRING IT TO THE PORCH?
For a $15 corkage fee, we will be happy to serve your wine (which by the way would go perfectly with our rotisserie prime rib!).
What time is happy hour?
If you join us at our bar or on the porch weekdays between 4:30-6:30 PM, we offer $5 wine (select varieties) and $2 off all drafts.
I heard that The Porch is part of the same company as Eat'n Park. Is that true?
