Welcome to the elephant

Located in the heart of Rittenhouse Square, The Elephant is a lush, upscale cocktail lounge known for its velvet-draped interiors, moody ambiance, and signature drink: the espresso martini. What began as the buzzed-about White Elephant pop-up has evolved into a full-time destination, offering over ten unique takes on the classic cocktail alongside a refined menu of New American small plates and entrées. Whether you’re here for a nightcap, date night, or a stylish evening out, The Elephant delivers bold flavor and unforgettable vibes – no matter the season.
