The first stop on the Netflix House Philadelphia tour was Netflix Bites, a full-service restaurant and bar decorated with nods to beloved characters. The Netflix Bites menu features a plethora of tongue-in-cheek items, including the $12 Killer Onion Dip (“Glass Onion”), $13 Regency Garden Greens (“Bridgerton”), $19 Totally Radical Pepperoni Pizza (“Stranger Things”), and the $18 WWE Smashburger (“WWE”).

I didn’t get to try the whole menu, but the pretzel bites and chicken tenders I grabbed from the buffet were tasty!

One of the coolest aspects about Netflix Bites is the sheer amount of references adorning the space. “K-Pop Demon Hunters,” “Orange is the New Black,” and “To All The Boys I’ve Loved” got shout-outs.

One of the attractions at Netflix House Philadelphia is Wednesday: Eve of the Outcasts, an interactive experience in which guests can participate in a school festival at Nevermore Academy. After a full moon causes Enid Sinclair to transform into a werewolf, she tasks Wednesday Addams with overseeing the academy’s highly anticipated Eve of Outcasts festival.

From the pair’s dorm room at Nevermore Academy to the festival itself, fans of the series will be impressed by the attention to detail, opportunities to explore, and hands-on games.

Wednesday: Eve of the Outcasts takes about an hour to complete, and ticket prices start at $39.

Another attraction at Netflix House Philadelphia is “One Piece: Quest for the Devil Fruit,” in which guests must escape prison to find Devil Fruit, a magical fruit that grants characters special powers. Along the way, they encounter Monkey D. Luffy and other familiar characters.

To complete One Piece: Quest for the Devil Fruit, guests must work through puzzles and different rooms until they reach the end, where they can take wanted photos and participate in other activities.

The activity lasts around an hour and costs $39.

At Netflix House Philadelphia, fans can go beyond the screen and immerse themselves in the worlds of “Stranger Things,” “Squid Games,” or “Rebel Moon” through VR. Each gameplay option has a different timeframe. “Squid Game Virtuals” and “Rebel Moon: The Descent” are both 25 minutes long, while “Stranger Things: Catalyst” has a 25-minute and 45-minute option.

Each option costs $25 except for the 45-minute “Stranger Things Catalyst” game, which costs $40.

This isn’t your mother’s mini golf.

At Top 9, guests compete across nine holes featuring Netflix shows and movies, including “Bridgerton” and “WWE.” However, unlike traditional golf, the player who gains the highest score — not the lowest — is the winner. Each golf ball has a chip inside it, which allows it to be tracked and assigned to different guests.

The different holes also have additional activities. For example, at the “Is it Cake?” hole, guests must decide whether an object is cake or not. If they choose correctly, they get extra points.

We didn’t get to explore the Tudum Theatre on Monday while visiting the Netflix House, but future guests will be able to watch TV, films, and other content about their favorite characters there. Tudum Theater is also expected to host dine-in showings, trivia nights, and special events.

Right next to Netflix Bites and Top 9 is the merch shop, which offers rows upon rows of merchandise. A Netflix representative said 70% of the items found at Netflix House Philadelphia are exclusive to that location, so there are a ton of options for people looking to stand out.

The merch shop also features a section selling “NetPHLIX” gear in a nod to Philadelphia. The representative said Netflix is making an effort to connect with the local community.
