Academy of Natural Sciences opens beer garden near NFL draft entrance

Could be your first stop heading into the draft experience or last stop when heading out

Three blocks from the 22nd Street gate to the 2017 NFL draft is a pop-up beer garden outside the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University.

The family-friendly spot will offer food and drinks from 11 a.m. to midnight on Friday, April 28, through Saturday, April 29.

It could be your first stop heading into the draft experience or your last stop heading out. 

The beer garden will offer menu items from 12th St Catering. Options include Cuban pork tacos, beef brisket tacos, cilantro lime shrimp tacos and cheese fries, along with a selection of beers. (You might want to drink your fill before heading into the draft experience. PhillyVoice staff writer Daniel Craig wasn't impressed with the beers inside.)

Families who find themselves at the pop-up at noon, 3 p.m., 6:30 p.m. or 8 p.m. will be treated to a special T. rex encounter.

The Academy of Natural Sciences is also offering free admission during the NFL draft.
