If you're even remotely a history buff, or just curious, there are all the historic sites downtown that are open during the day BEFORE you hit all the night spots above.
Liberty bell and old congress buildings will be worth 2 hours or so.
Edit: and its all free. Just park (not free) and walk all over, pick up your car after dinner / bars.

Walk center city.. It is one of the most walkable downtown areas. There is a observation deck atop City hall that is free. It is 547ft or so above the streets and gives great views. Check out the TV in the comcast center at 17th and ARch I think. Its in the lobby and is amazing also. Old city is pretty much all free.

stay close to the river. Avoid anything west of the Skyukill River and North or Lehigh Ave. Stay away from Kensington, Port Richmond and any street that is more then 40 or is named by a letter.
