Very nice park with a water fountain in the middle and lots of lights on all the trees surrounding the entire park for the Holiday festival. I’m not really sure what this park normally looks like because it’s hard to imagine it without all the lights, the beer garden and the big food tent. The park itself is pretty big and it has a miniature golf course and a carousel which is pretty cool. I’d love to come back when it starts to get warm so I can try a shake from the infamous Square Burger. I think it’s cool that a park has a little fast food restaurant in it, I can’t wait to try it.

Nice historical gem in Old City Philly! Came during the holidays during the tree lighting show. They showed the Christmas lighting show every half hour from 4:30 to 8pm. They also have a nice tent area where they sell some cold brew and some bites.
I enjoyed a nice brew right next to the fire pit. Nice historical fact for you this park was renovated in 2006.

A nice place for lunch on a weekday or to go read a book. Lots of kiddos and dogs. As well as some historical landmarks in the center of the square. It’s fun. It’s free and it’s a great place to walk through in historic philly.

It’s a very kid friendly environment, there are train rides that go around the park, a food stand area and a mini golf section. The place had a lot of seating arrangements, but the park wasn’t the cleanest looking places you’ll see, but it’s doable, for this I give a 4 star review. Cleanliness, in my opinion, is the most important thing for a park.
I think it’s worth to note, but the mini golf area features all the famous landmarks of Philly. So if you’re a tourist, it’s an interesting place to go play golf at.

The carousel is a testament to simpler days. I even got on it, and found myself wishing I was lighter. Your hair blows back in a faint breeze, and you berate youself for having gotten on a horse that was white instead of black. Anyway, it is gorgeous. Three bucks a ride. Have to be 42″. The little park has a modern edge with moms who are tired. Half of the park is for toddlers, and the other half is for bigger kids. There is mini-​golf, the fountain, and a snack shack. The bathroom was semi-​fear-​inducing– terribly scented, and females have to stand on a metal panel that you are afraid that you will fall through while hitching up your jeans. Most employees are nice. One gal was so over checking seatbelts and pushing buttons at the carousel. I liked the fact that you are near Chinatown and a city’s heart. Lovely memory.

Hugely disappointing. The PR hype misrepresents the experience here. It’s ok enough but really not worth the trip to this desolate part of Philly when you have a limited amount of time here. Please find better experiences than this glorified playground!

Great park in the city fun for every age. Do not have to spend a lot of money to have a great time.

We came here for the musical holiday light show and the free kid activities during the week of Thanksgiving.
It’s a fairly nice sized park with a large playground which my nieces were enjoying before their parents treated them to the carousel! Yes a carousel! But of course you have to pay for it. It also has a restroom area.
Overall a nice park.

The light show is a nice idea, but the staff is absolutely rude. It was a nice light show, but I am not going to beg to give my money to some jerk for an overpriced beverage.

Cute park!
I went last night for the holiday festival (details:
) which is going on through December 31.
The festival set some big expectations, advertising an «electrical spectacle», a holiday gift shop, food vendors, performers, and more. They didn’t all live up to expectation, but the light show was good, especially for a free attraction. Bright, upbeat, and chock full of Ben Franklin goodness. The food (typical festival food, hotdogs and popcorn and such) and the gift shop were disappointing; however, they do have food trucks on Fridays and a holiday «market» on saturdays, which I bet are good.
Other fun that I sadly did not participate in included: mini golf, a carousel, and a train. Definitely would be a fun event for kids!

I’ll come here just for Square Burger! (The cake shake is to die for and will take you straight to heaven!)
The park is maintained really well and the fact that it has a carousel and mini golf nearby makes it perfect for people with kids and without. Many options of things to do here or even just sit and read!
It’s different from the other philly parks by the parkway or museum so it’s a nice change.

My son loves it here. It’s kept very clean and there’s plenty of room for him to run around. He also really likes the merry-​go-​round. That’s the one thing that always catches his attention when we go here. The kids playground has slides, swings, and a seasaw (sort of). He loves going on the swing and the slide. I haven’t gone on the mini golf course yet, but one day I will when he’s a little older.
I know they also do parties here. I was looking into throwing my son’s bday here, but decided elsewhere instead, but it’s always an option for the parents wanting to do something special for the young ones.
The only thing that I’m not too fond of is the parking situation. It’s street parking, but it’s also very limited. Try to walk here if possible.
Overall: If you are around the area and need a resting place while your kids play, this is it.

We had a great time taking the kids here for miniature golf and a carousel ride. The golf is definitely geared towards younger kids. This was actually the first time our children played (6 y/​o and 3 y/​o) and they did fine. Each hole was designed after a different Philly theme or landmark (Love Park, Art Museum, Liberty Bell, etc.). The kids really had a good time, and maybe we lucked out when we went because it wasn’t very busy. We did one ride on the carousel which lasted for a fairly long time and it was really fun. The overall price was little on the high side, but not outrageous for center city attractions. The playground here is of ample size, and it has a decent amount of play equipment for a park in center city.
Overall, it was a great place to come to entertain the kids for a couple of hours. We will definitely come back here in the future when we’re in center city with the kids and looking for something to pass some time.

I didn’t know my hometown had miniature golf until I did a search. To my surprise, I was delighted! It was a beautiful day out for mini golf at Franklin Square. The golf course boast historical presence in Philly, which I just loved! Everyone was nice and polite. I tried the classic cheese burger and shake! Delicious. We’re definitely going back. Had a great time. I’ll take pics next time.

Came here after walking ~6 blocks from the Convention Center in 90F+ Summer Heat… was Underwhelmed.
The Carousel was fun, and we were only ones on it. But it’s a long way to go. Also, the area is kinda dead with freeway on-​ramps close by.
If you have kids, save time and money and go to PLEASE TOUCH.

This was the second time I was at Franklin Square Park and it is spacious, beautiful, fun, and relaxing! There’s a playground, mini golf, merry-​go-​round, and small food stand too.
The first time my boyfriend and I came here it was a hot Summer afternoon and during the middle of the heatwave so we didn’t have the best experience. However, we did enjoy our second time here and played mini golf too. There was a lot of people playing mini golf since the day we went was a beautiful, Spring afternoon. I love the American, Patriotic, and Philadelphia theme they had in the golf course.
Finally, there is a big fountain and sign in the front of the park for those who love taking pictures.

Don’t hate my 3 star review, but I’m from California and I’m not urbanized (yelling at my kids in public and grabbing them borderline child-​abuse style.) Philly is a tough place (Ben Franklin would be proud…“I’m gonna fly my effin’ kite during a lightning storm if I want!”) and I’m def not «Philly tough.» So, the park… it’s a nice spot, but I’m lame.
3.5 stars (please don’t kick my ass!)

My favorite or the 4 squares! It’s clean, fun & relaxing.
It’s a family friendly park with an awesome play area, mini golf, a merry go round & fountain.
Square Burger is here if you need to refuel but their fries have gotten smaller & worst with time. (other review)
There are picnic tables & other smaller tables so I love to bring food from the Gallery or Chinatown here when it’s nice out.

This is a nice park, especially for little kids. The bathrooms are clean compared to other park bathrooms I have been to and even having a family bathroom. There is a nice fountain, picnic benches, carousel ride and play area for kids. They also sell food and drinks at a counter and the prices aren’t too bad. I was here yesterday afternoon (Sunday) and the park was clean. There were families but it wasn’t overly crowded.

Franklin Square surprised me at how much fun I can actually have here as an adult. The park is quite spacious, you can run around with kids, play mini golf, go on the merry-​go-​round and have some burgers.
My friends and I decided to do the mini golf and merry-​go-​round for just $ 11, seems like a bargain to me. We did the mini golf first and it started to drizzle with rain but luckily it wasn’t a hard down pour. As the rain left, more people started to appear on the course. Good thing we were a couple of holes before them. The merry-​go-​round brought back a lot of memories, although it was a bit short, you get to feel the breeze on such a humid afternoon.
They also have a big fountain in the center for you picture-​takers.
