about the wayward

The Wayward is inspired by the rebellious spirit of Stephen Girard and his journey from Bordeaux to Philly. We are a place where weary travelers and curious locals alike can come together over good food and easy conversation. So wander over and stay for a bit. We’ll be waiting with a strong drink in hand.
