“ They serve Franklin ice cream which was very delicious. I had the chocolate Dominican shake and a London fog. I would definitely come back. There's plenty of room to hangout, socialize or study. ”
“ My second time here while visiting Philly and always a pleasant experience. Friendly staff and fast service! They always have creative drinks that aren’t too sweet. So much room to sit and catch up with a friend ”
“ Always a wonderful vibe. And the baristas never cease to amaze me with how quickly they can go through a never-ending line of customers with Grace and high spirits. I tried the turmeric honey latte iced today… Changed my life! ”
“ What an adorable little coffeehouse! It totally gives off Gryffindor common room vibes—I'm talking cozy corners and a magical atmosphere. Honestly, I’d love to see a Potter-themed menu when I walk in! From the moment I stepped through the door, the friendly staff made me feel right at home. The ambiance is everything you want in a coffee shop; I enjoyed soaking in the chatter around me. It’s also the perfect spot for studying, with plenty of tables and comfy seating. Plus, they had some nice lo-fi house music playing in the background, setting the perfect mood! I tried the iced orange chocolate mocha and a rhubarb PB&J cookie. The mocha was tasty, but I think it would shine even more when served hot. And that cookie? Oh my goodness—it got better with each delightful bite! Although I’m not from the area, I’d definitely return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this charming gem to others! ”
“ The scones were great! Espresso (SF French Vanilla Americano) was a little bitter/burnt, couldve just needed some mixing, but not bad for a pick me up! ”
