The staff and ambience are awesome! The line moved really quickly when we were there on a Saturday afternoon. The oat milk draft latte was very smooth and tasty. The iced matcha was pretty good but had a bit too much milk.

The staff was amazing and the small Latte was so good, I love the mini plates they give when your coffee is ready. There was no loud music and it was quiet and it's nice to work there. The parking is relatively difficult to park.

La Colombe Coffee Roasters in Philadelphia is a haven for coffee enthusiasts, known for its high-quality drinks and innovative Draft Latte. The atmosphere is inviting, with a focus on quality that shines through in every cup. While service is efficient, it’s the delicious coffee and reasonable prices that truly make La Colombe stand out. It’s a must-visit for anyone looking for an exceptional coffee experience in the city.

OG La Colombe had been on my bucket list for a long time now, and my expectations were beyond met! I asked the barista to choose a pour over for me based on my tastes, and she gave me a super delicious coffee, so don't be shy and just ask them about what they know the most, which is coffee!! I purchased a few bags of beans and even some of the cute merch they have. One of my favorite spots I got to visit in Philly. Love La Colombe!

Cool warehouse industrial but comfy feel in this giant coffeehouse. There are an assortment of food options including bakery fare, sandwiches and pizza. Obviously a full coffee, espresso and tea selection, though the mininalist decor does not allow for giant menu boards that you may normally be accustomed to seeing. I looked up the menu on the website beforehand! We ordered two cafe mocha's. My wife wanted a caramel latte but they did not have/offer caramel - which was odd. We ordered a selection of pastries including strawberry donuts, a chocolate croissant and a blueberry muffin to take home. Both the food and beverages were exceptional. The mocha's came with rosettes. (natch) I loved that it was more of dark butter chocolate flavor with full notes of espresso as opposed to sugary sweet chocolate syrups used in other coffeehouses. The staff was friendly and accommodating - I had ordered a 5lb bag of beans from the La Colombe website, and forgot to select a grind so they came whole. I brought the bag with me, and the the staff had no problem grinding it for me while we drank our drinks. Super nice. There is ample free on-street parking around the Frankford Ave area.

The espresso is nothing special and the quality of my cappuccino typically sits below average - but the space itself is giant and warm and conducive to long visits. Because they're open later, I'm here more often than I like. The food is actually quite decent, with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. Staff is mostly friendly. Just wish the coffee was better.

They don’t have WiFi available and my phone service is not great in that building and keeps losing connection so I won’t frequent the place as much as I would if they had WiFi there… it’s a bummer..

Staff asked me if I was vegetarian or not and gave me bread options for my TooGoodToGo. Totally unexpected and super nice. I thought based on the amount of spacing in the area that this would be a small coffee shop. It was a bit bigger than expected with the high ceilings from what was probably formerly a warehouse. A bit of a bigger kitchen and cafe area to be able to sell food and not just run of the mill goodies only. La Colombe has coffee that locals like. I should've realized it was a chain beforehand with the cans I see in the supermarket, but I will drink local or (more) mainstream. What more can you ask for?
