“When in today to pick up a few things. With this whole Corona virus scare most places are completely out of stock, nasty attitude, and unprepared. What a nice surprise to be greeted at the door by a young man with a smile and every employee I walked by asked if I needed help with anything. They were fully stocked of necessities and non essential stuff as well. They were organized and friendly and with everything that's going on that should be recognized!!! I wholeheartedly believe that having great management results in having a staff like that as well!!!“
“Service was great. I got a bacon egg and cheese on a poppy seed bagel. Boyfriend got a ham egg and cheese on a cinnamon sugar bagel. My only complaint is how thin and insubstantial the egg is in the sandwich. Also got and everything but the kitchen sink cookie, which was delicious. Would have been perfect if it was warm.“
“Food... Amazing!! Service... Fantastic!! Atmosphere... Cozy!!I highly recommend this restaurant. I enjoy the delicious food (especially the Salmon Freekah Salad and Pistachio Sticky Bun) and the Brown Butter Artichoke Borekas are everything!!! After a year of coming here, I've tried nearly everything on the menu ? Owner, Chef Mike Solomonov is incredibly generous!!!“
“Cafe La Maude in Philadelphia is a charming spot that blends French and Lebanese culinary traditions into a delightful brunch experience. With a 5-star rating, it’s praised for its flavorful and unique dishes, professional service, and the cozy ambiance that makes the wait worthwhile. The menu offers a mix of healthy options, and while the prices are a bit steep, the quality of the food is exceptional. It’s a place where you can enjoy a leisurely meal and feel the warmth of family history and culture in every bite.“
“Interesting use of outdoor lawn chairs for furniture (not sure how this works in wintertime).Plus, there is a good selection of non-coffee drinks and beverage accessories.And... a cortado served in a large GLASS tumbler! Delicious and classy!“
“Love this place for Gelato and drinks. Feel like in Italy when entering the shop. can eat in or take out Gelato. There is a bar inside that they made fresh coffee as well. Best espresso martini and Aperol spitz. There is a restaurant upstairs too but didn’t try yet. Many import staff from Italy. Very enjoy to be in this place. really recommended“
“Lucked in to finding this place while in town. Small local restaurant, clean and friendly. The mozzarella sticks are freshly cut, battered and deep fried. Best I’ve ever had. The pizza was amazing. Had pepperoni and sausage. Sausage was legit good!“
“The food here is really good!! Chicken pad thai extra spicy was absolutely delish. My favorite in the area honestly. Service was also really nice. The woman at the counter is very friendly and conversational. We absolutely will be back often!!“
“LOVED IT HERE! Truly authentic Italian cooking, with authentic ingredients to purchase. The staff was so friendly and accomodating on their menu. We had to make a slight change in order for a vegetarian, and they had no issues. We tried their breakfast sandwiches & lunch sandwiches, and each bite was jam packed with substance & flavor (I mean, just look at the layers in my photo.) Fresh ingredients, and an overall quaint/bright spot. This would be an awesome place to post up and get some work done, do some people watching, and enjoy delicious food. Not to mention, their baked goods looked out of this world. We wanted to get so much, but I landed on their passion fruit donut, partly because it was the last one left (so I figured something must be good!) And let me tell you, their dough is different. The donut was dense & fluffy at the same time, and their passion fruit flavor was y-u-m-m-y. I can't wait to go back to try more sandwiches and get some grocery shopping done!“
“When it comes to their milk tea and other drinks, they feel similar to a lot of places in Asia, which is a good thing. You can get lots of authentic drinks and customize them. Hot or cold, extra or no sugar, you can have your drink how you want it.The staff are really nice as well. We can speak multiple languages and by willing to help customers as much as they can.Highly recommend this place“
“Incredible service! They're super accommodating with my dairy allergy and made an incredible vegan latte. My boyfriend got the croissant and egg sandwich and said it was perfectly crispy and the eggs and sausage were fresh. Highly recommend!“
“A pastry shop, a beacon of delight,Where morning treats turn dawn into bright.Two souls, prompt and kind,In every task aligned,Make breakfast fare a memorable sight.Croissants cradle eggs and prosciutto alike,A harmony of flavors that make us psyche.Coffee rich, price fair,In this haven rare,Perfection this place does strike.“
“Blackened Cauliflower sandwich 10/10Vanilla oatmeal 10/10Zucchini fritters 9/10Blueberry iced 10/10Everything is beyond delicious. I keep trying different things when I go but I always make sure to get the blackened cauliflower sandwich.. it’s so darn good.“
“Coming to leave a review because I mistakenly left and forgot to tip! I stopped by while getting an oil change and had my pup with me - couldn’t bring him inside so they kindly took my order and brought it out to me. Such a lovely environment and good coffee- thanks again!“
“Not only are the single serving treats just adorable (I mean a sleeping teddy bear), they are VERY tasty. The cakes are equally delicious, my experience is that they always have a couple of smaller cakes on hand which has saved me in a pinch several times. The team is lovely, friendly and kind. Highly, highly recommend and will continue to be a customer for a long time“
“OMG, I just discovered this little spot tucked away in an office block. Absolutely the freshest food. I had a smoothie, amazing veggie panini and the soup of the day which was chicken noodle. The ladies are lovely and service is top notch. All good and will be back when the opportunity “
“I’ve gone in twice for birthday cakes. I’m horribly last-minute, but luckily they always have already-made birthday cakes for sale which are DELICIOUS. They’re super flavorful without being too much, and they’re beautiful to look at. Plus they can write a message on the cake very quickly. I’m a fan!“
“Very cute little place - this is the second time we’ve stopped by! We came in towards closing, the staff were super friendly and very accommodating. The food is unbelievable - as a fussy vegetarian, I usually struggle to find things I like, but I was spoilt for choice here. They also made a custom iced coffee and it was definitely the best coffee I’ve ever had!Vegetarian options: More vegetarian options than I’ve had anywhere else!“
“I came here for the first time after an otherwise hectic morning and had such a delightful experience. The coffee and quinoa bowl were delicious and I am obsessed with their HUSKEE drinkware, which is made from recycled coffee husks. Everything about this cafe—from the general vibe to the customer service to the art—makes me want to return, and I look forward to my next visit :).“
“Giving 5 stars because Dotty's is excellent at what they do... Even if many of the flavors are over the top and I don't actually like them. LoLI'm really loving the savory doughnuts though! I didn't think that they would be as good as they have been. :-)“
“What we ordered: Baker’s Basket, Continental Breakfast, French Omelet, and a hot latte.I’d recommend the Continental Breakfast if you’re indecisive or if you want a variety in one order, which was fun for me to try. I love the croissants here because they are not too flaky yet still buttery and fresh. However, the scone was too dry for my liking, and the toasted brioche was okay. It was a fun breakfast for us with friendly service.Be mindful of the parking as well, because you’ll need to parallel park and pay for the time you’re there. If you’re even a couple of minutes late, you may end up with a ticket, which was a painful experience for us.“
“Delightful visit to this bakery! The mocha cake was heavenly—moist, rich in flavor, and with the perfect balance of coffee and chocolate. Paired with their freshly brewed coffee, it was an absolute treat. Cozy ambiance and friendly staff added to the wonderful experience. A must-try spot for anyone looking for quality cakes and coffee. Highly recommend!“
“They had several great vegan options and the owner was very kind and interested in us having a good experience. The atmosphere is a little cramped but not claustrophobic. I loved the random assortment of books and plants all over. We thoroughly enjoyed our stop here!Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options!“
“Clean minimal shop with quality matcha products and great ice cream.Strawberry and earl grey swirl are my current go to after dinner in Chinatown, however it is a seasonal flavor so get it while you can. I’ve also had the hojicha float which was refreshing and had a deep roasted nutty flavor with an edge of bitterness.What I enjoy most about this place is the typical Asian compliment when it comes to dessert “not so sweet”.Surreal is quite trendy but I find myself becoming quickly tired of it due to amount, all the toppings, and just the overall sweetness of the ice cream whereas matcha Maiko has the perfect amount of sweetness to remind you it’s a treat but not to the point where halfway through you feel like need water or tea to tone down the sugar“
“I’m biased because I’m ethiopian myself; however, everything about Alif is hella ethiopian, hella delicious. Love their missir (lentil) samosas and i could drink a whole liter of their buna (coffee)!I come here often and will keep coming here for the food and the vibes ??☕️“
“Excellent place to eat and drink (coffee, lattes, etc.). Ordered a SEC with 3 eggs ($8) as well as a 16 oz sugar free latte ($4.75). Both tasted great! Park in the tiny lot behind the building on Delaware Street or in front of the building (side entrance and exit) on S. Broad.“
“I’ve come here multiple times in the past decade and the chaat and lassi never fail to hit the spot. I got a fig lassi and a paneer chaat, both were so refreshing and the owner is so kind and hospitable. While this spot is not in a great location, the lassis and food make it worth it!!!“
“I've been here a few times, but this time it was to celebrate a birthday. The staff was excellent and went above and beyond to make the birthday special. Everyone was so helpful & friendly plus the service was outstanding. Will be back many more “
“We finally stopped by in the afternoon one day to grab a quick late brunch, and really enjoyed our experience! The cafe was really bustling and busy, obviously a local favorite. I had the bananas fosters crepe and it was amazing, truly recommend ordering it and getting a side of home fries. My husband had a breakfast sandwich and he loved it! The service was fast and the owner even came by to check on everyone in the cafe, bringing a cannoli (which was amazing) for each table. So glad we stopped by finally!“
“A true neighborhood gem! My go to order is a pork roll melt with tots and The Hulk smoothie with pineapple added. Have been eating here for over 4 years and always consistent. Great customer service. Worth making sure you have cash on hand!“
“Exceptional coffee shop if you like real coffee. Ordered a coffee just before they closed and they didn’t have anything on drip ready or fresh but had made plenty for a previous pour over and got some of their treehouse blend. Fantastic. I buy their beans online. Also highly recommend. They have some incredible tasting notes. Also very comfortable space at the time I went, not overcrowded or loud.“
“We've gone here for Friday lunches a few times in the past months and have ordered over half of the paninis they have available. Everything we've had from Torchwood is phenomenal, and I can't say that we've ever had a bad sandwich. It's quickly become one of our favorite places to pop out to during the week; plus, we love the music! The pineapple mango mint tea is a must try :)“
“We’ve tried all the Ethiopian food in this area and this is the one that keeps us coming back. The food is sooooo good. Service is a little slow but every time we’ve been there it’s only 1 guy working and he’s working hard. We don’t mind the wait at all, we usually bring some cards or something to keep us occupied ? the restaurant is very clean. its BYOB so bring your drink of choice! I really love this place. I hope you try it.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options. I eat meat but went with 2 vegetarians and we shared everything. Eating vegetarian here still is sooooo satisfying.Wheelchair accessibility: This place is not wheelchair accessible. There’s a small set of about 4 stairs you have to walk down to get into the building.“
“Given the number of various establishments at this location that have come and gone over the last few decades, the fact that Vibrant has now been here well over two years speaks for itself. The Rittenhouse Square neighborhood was relatively coffee-free for years, and thankfully several places have popped up recently. This is the best of the lot. Coffees and baked goods are consistently excellent. Baristas are usually pleasant. Unless money isn’t a concern for you, however, be advised that a regular plain coffee is around $4, and prices go up from there, so Vibrant is not the best place to frequent often. The space itself is pretty tiny, there’s no real room to sit inside, which leads to lines out the door every weekend morning and when there’s an event going on in the Square. There are some small tables outside the entrance on Locust Street. That’s it, so by necessity business is mostly takeout. Worth it for an occasional treat/splurge.“
“The food and atmosphere was remarkable. I came here Saturday and Sunday morning. The staff was soo friendly and made me feel so welcoming. The food was delicious and homemade. The homemade turkey sausages was delicious. Everything about it was amazing. I would highly recommend trying this place out. They also have outside seating and the prices are very reasonableParking: Since the place is right on market street, it can be difficult to find parking. Since I stayed at the hotel nearby, I walked to the restaurant“
“I have had the pleasure to come and eat/ drink/ buy products! The Owner is amazing beautiful and her skin is flawless. I Love it! Check them out! Grab yourself a delicious smoothie. The classes are really dope if you want to go for your bday. Girlfriend day out attend a workshop. Congratulations on your 3 years anniversary. Many more to come“
“The food, service and ambiance of this restaurant were excellent! All went above and beyond expectations. Very authentic, delicious Italian food, with very attentive and friendly staff, working hard for their customers. Coming here for dinner was a wonderful way to end my visit to Philadelphia!“
“What a Gem!!! Everything was fantastic. But really sets the cafe apart from ALL others is the Barista. A true ambassador of the Nona and Pops but also of Termini. I wish I had asked her name. She is the epitome of customer service and quite evident she loves her job and her employer. Give her a big raise, elevate her within the company to customer service trainer for all of your new employees.“
“Sabrina’s has become my go to spot for breakfast, brunch, and lunch in my area. The food and atmosphere are always outstanding, whether sitting at a table inside, outside, or at the bar. The service is also great - our waitress recently at the Art museum location, Lauren, was very attentive and friendly, helping us navigate the specials and enjoy our experience. Highly recommend!“
“I waltzed in here hungover af after a night out on Sansom St. It was the worst kind of hangover though. One of the sneak hangovers. The type of ones where you wake up and are like "damn I'm not even hung...I might just be like that..." then when you're walking down the stairs to go get a coffee you're like wow that hangover that heard me talkin all that mess. One of those hangovers where it so cunningly waits until you are planning your whole day out in your head of all the things you are going to get done, only to wait until both feet touch the earth to say "you sure about that buddy?" It's like the Sly Cooper of hangovers. Only real ones, my fellow PS2 players, will get that reference.All this to say, that hangover SNUCK me on the way to Java Company. I was just going to get a coffee, but knew I needed some sort of bread to help me fend off the sneak.We arrived and saw ample outdoor seating with beautiful, rustic chairs and tables. The quality of chairs and tables really can make or break a coffee shop.This place is what you think of when you think "cute coffee shop," I loved it. Upon approaching the order stand, I was debating what to get to fill up my tummy. My Lil Cuzzo suggested I get the Labneh as "it's really good.""The Lab-wha?" the Croatian Orangutan responded. She began to explain that it was some kind of yogurt spread on bread with cucumbers on top, and then saw my look of dire confusion and just pointed to it behind the little glass."That looks and sounds horrendous right now," I said. I meant that from my soul too it really did.I ended up getting an americano with oat milk and a plain multigrain bagel, Little Cuzzo ended up getting a dirty chai latte and the Labneh ahahahahahahaha.We sat in the corner and after some time, the waitress came with our items and shook my americano, as it looked black as TON 618, the most massive blackhole in the universe, and said "There is oat milk in there it just doesn't look like it." What am I supposed to say to that ahaha.There is still some debate to this day among Philadelphians on whether or not there was any oat milk in that americano. It is a chicken or egg scenario at this point.I tried Lil Cuzzo's Labneh, because I'll try anything once, and it was GAS. I had to eat every last word. I should have got the Labneh smh. I also tried her dirty chai latte and that was hittin too! I was sitting there with my arms crossed, staring at my plain bagel and americano with alleged oat milk and was like damn, I should have just got her order. Could never tell her that though you feel me? Lil Cuzzo's ego be crazy already!!I loved this place. GET THE LABNEH!IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov__“
“The food is good. The service is excellent. They offered my foster dog a pup cup the moment they saw him come in. The ladies at the counter were very sweet. It's a cafe where you order at the counter and pick up your food before grabbing a table of your choice. The atmosphere is pretty quiet, with some music playing in the background. Very relaxing.PS. They are currently running a toy drive, so feel free to pop by and donate a toy for the less privileged.“
“I just discovered Local Links right here in Haddon Heights and tried their Sesame Roll Cheesesteak – it was a game-changer! They’re generous with the meat, and it’s super cheesy and mouth-wateringly good. The bread deserves a shout-out too: soft, just the right amount, not too bready – perfect to the last bite.It’s named the East-Philly Cheesesteak, and it genuinely tastes like it’s straight out of NJ. Plus, the presentation is unique, served on a metallic tray with a steak knife right through it. Had no idea this gem was in my backyard. Can’t wait to go back!“
“My mother and I visited this cute spot for our morning warm hugs in a cup. I ordered the Chai latte with almond milk in the ginger flavor and it twas DELIGHTFUL. The service from the staff was swift and sweet.I also noticed some vegan goodies on the menu I may have to try while I am in town ?“
“I’ve been coming to Waterfront for a few years now. It’s a perfect spot along the river front to grab a coffee, tea, bagel, sandwich or smoothie. Grab something quick and go for a walk or ride along the river!Service is always friendly, reliable and quick! I always feel like I can trust Waterfront for a great on-the-go breakfast or lunch.Tons of great spots nearby to take your food to (2nd street pier, Cherry Street Pier, Penns Landing, Waterfront Bike Path, etc, etc, etc.) Or, hang out inside or on their outside seating.I’m sure I’ll be coming here in the years to come!Parking: Virtually impossible to find direct nearby parking. Lots nearby with a 5-10 min walk. But the area is very walkable!“
“Came back for a second time in one week. This time, I ordered the grilled pork summer rolls and they are freaking delicious Of course, I am a creature of habit, so I ordered the salted coffee again and it's even more delicious today. Only complaint I have is that they don't offer a larger size!“
“I’m Moroccan, i went to this Algerian café restaurant Yesterday to meet a Tunisian friend the place was nice and clean beautiful space n welcoming service, i tried a Merguez sandwich served with black olive and homemade french fries and is was delicious. Price was more then fair $10 for the whole plate. Thank you for the good service, definitely will try it again. Thank you“
“Really delicate and fluffy cappuccino with oat milk (espresso w/milk). The ceramics they serve these in are also very beautiful. The space is great to hang out and work in. Lots of seating, natural light, and this cafe is connected to an amazing bakery next door.Dietary restrictions: they offer oat milk alternative“
“So the star of this place is there cookies in my opinion. I got a coconut cookie with an almond joy baked in the middle. What is refreshing about it is it wasn't a chocolate chip cookie base. This is probably one of my favorite cookies I have gotten in the area. I did try a cupcake with lemon curd. The butterCream and lemon curd was great but I wasn't a fan, it was really dry I'm not gonna lie. I wish in the cupcakes they would have had filling in it to. That's why I gave it 4 stars. But I've seen all the reviews now & ill definitely back and try different Cupcakes. ill Definitely buying a bunch of cookies ❤️ P.S they are all really nice in theirKid-friendliness: It has a kid friendly atmosphere with chairs and a whole set up for them in the corner.“
“We tried TD for the first time on Monday as my brother was at Jeff for a treatment. We had egg frittata and a breakfast sandwich--both were outstanding. But the star of the show to me at least was my iced cinnamon roll latte. I normally don't go for this type of drink because they always taste like a mouthful of sugar. This had a delicious coffee flavor with just the right balance of milk and sweetness. Obviously these types of beverages are a sweet treat but one does want to taste the coffee. The young women in there keep everything running smoothly and the atmosphere is peaceful and warm. We're happy to have found a new spot.“
“We stopped here after a doctors appointment and got some food. What I liked is they have a kids meal most places don’t have them when it come to Asian Food.The place was clean the food was good and the price was great. The servers were nice and patient until you picked what you wanted to eat. I will go back. Also they serve a lot of food. Which that’s a good thing in my book.“
