$1 breakfast until 11 am and free coffee /tea with an ikea card. Cheap and delicious. The view overlooks the docks and a giant ship. It's beautiful.

I love IKEA & my whole house is decorated with it. One small issue: there are NEVER enough registers open here. Plan to wait in line for at least 30+ mins. Anything less would be a pleasant surprise.

Philadelphia Magazine

Plop your kiddies down in the play area , shop for absurdly cheap assemble-it-yourself furniture , and then head to the café to nosh on similarly inexpensive Swedish meatballs , hot dogs , and sandwiches . Read more

I can never get enough of IKEA. In terms of helpful tips, there's a lot of great apps on the App Store for keeping track of things you want to pick up at the end; SmartList is a good one.

Friendly service . Great atmosphere! I feel like I've been leaving here over the last month making the townhouse (Aka Chambord dormitory) a tidy home.

Everyday deals at restaurant especialy today with no fountain soda(machine down) just water and can sodas , juices , milks and coffees ☕

Brian Ashman

If coming to just eat, go down the elevator right at the top of the escalator to leave. This will save you from having to wander thru the store to get out.

Raquel Mckissick

Love the candy bar !! So many cute home goods!! Preparing a cute tea party for my daughter. Found everything I was looking for!!

The N Crowd

You should try their meatballs . Occasionally you will find a group of improvisers wandering around and doing scenes in bed room mock ups. Feel free to join them. They are pretty nice.

Liz Rattray

After years going here I've finally mastered how to get in and out in under an hour. But somehow I always leave with a thing I didn't know I needed until I saw it at IKEA. No idea how that happens...

Tim Quirino

The food here is extraordinarily cheap and quality is decent for what you're paying. 50cent hot dogs are nice after a long day of "testing" the sofas and chairs.

James O'Hagan

As much as people joke about their furniture , it truly is decently made. We bought some nice stuff and I destroyed my wrists putting it together... so there's that.

Fins and Fluke

We all know that there is no such thing as a "quick" trip to IKEA. Since you're here for a while, bring your reusable water bottle!

Eli Morris

Are you interested in learning how to assemble IKEA furniture as well as purchase your built piece @ an incredible discount ? Then signup for IKEA's Ask As-Is Workshop. The 3rd Sat of every month 8-10a

Sam Margulies

If you want a drink, get it downstairs in the marketplace . It's a quarter cheaper and you can take it with you as you shop unlike the glasses upstairs.

Valerie Baumgart

On the hunt for a deal? Start your shopping on the first floor clearance section...it's been fruitful on numerous occasions!

Andrew Richardson

Check out the company name of the giant fans down in the aisles and bins.

Kristel Buschan

Good IKEA, just like any of the other ones and the employees were helpful and nice

Kevin H.

Ask for Lisa in bedding and closets, she is the best ! Thank you Lisa we love our new closet!

Russ Hansen

I don’t know why it takes my wife for ever and a day. We come here for a few things leave with a whole cart of garbage!

Campbell Bird

Get some meatballs . Maybe buy a MALM something-or-other, but definitely get some meatballs .

Durrock Knox

Everyone is helpful!! It is always a treat to come here...and the cafeteria food is actually tasty!

Hollie Sick

Get in and get out. Go in the middle of the week or it's packed!

Joelle Mancini

Great love the item here I would come here often for what I need :)

Stoni Dingle

Go early in the day. Less congested!

James Gerber

Watch for the all you can eat buffets

Sign up for an Ikea Family Card for discounts and free stuff .

Mjumbe Poe

This building is a black hole for cell signal. Make sure you're not expecting any calls. And if you did a car share, make sure you have plenty of time.

Like every IKEA prepare yourself for no parking , insanity inside, and an hour long wait at checkout.

James Gerber

The cafeteria is awesome

Sara Moreno

Where white couples come to fight...

Andrew Richardson

M-F with your ikea family card , kids stay in Smalland for 90 minutes instead of 60.

Jennifer Schmidt

Leah Tartaglia

Sometimes I go for lunch , sometimes I go just to buy bags

Gary Reed

Always check the as is before you buy. I saved over $100

Jillian Hair

These items are cheaper than wal-Mart.. First timer it kinda like museum

Michelle K.

Some people go to IKEA just for the restaurant . If I lived closer, I'd be one of those people.

Cristina Adair

Don't go upstairs unless you absolutely need to. You will get lost in the chaos. The arrows and maps are no help at all. Stop at the cafeteria for cheap food.

Julie Bare

Make sure you use your debit card, you get 1% back. It doesn't seem like much but it adds up!

Brian Moore

Great store . They really have reasonable prices

Will Hallock

Come here with a mission or plan on buying the whole store.

James T

Has an underrated, cheap cheesesteak .

Brandon Cain

Need something for the house? They probably have it with a decent deal

Kyle Slattery

Meatballs . It's all about the meatballs .

Rob Silk

Come early, less crowded , .99 breakfast

Don't let Curtis make your cheesesteak . He picks his nose. So does Tyrone.
