50 Best Coffee Shops near Audubon

“The coffee and food are top notch, quiet little downtown strip of merchant st is a great sport to meet a friend or work/study, staff is warm and friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Great espresso and coffee.“

“What a great find! Great place for coffee or coffee and a bite. Iced coffee was exceptional and the egg, cheese, and spicy ketchup bagel was quite tasty. Great vibe. You walk in and immediately feel comfortable, and in another world. It will be one of my regular to go places now. Actually much more than a 5 on all areas.“

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!“

“Had an absolutely delightful date here. After seeing photos on social media, we decided to stop on in. The drinks and danishes were delicious, and it was a pleasure to talk to other writers. Will definitely be returning and recommending Ren's to all my coffee and book lovers!“

“Absolutely best breakfast sandwich value hereabouts.“

“The service was great and the women behind the counter were amazing! I will definitely come back when I am in the area again.“

“Such a cute spot with amazing coffee! I have grabbed to go coffee from here quite a few times and it doesn’t disappoint. Anything from drip to a cappuccino has been amazing. It is a little bit on the pricier side but the tip is included and the staff is always nice (I don’t mind paying extra for quality coffee)!
The space is quite small (2-3 tables) so I would recommend taking to go unless you’re lucky enough to snag a table (it is full particularly in the mornings). I can tell there are dedicated regulars who go here and I can see why!“

“This place embodies minimalist. Coffee at its purest. Friendly barista, worth stopping for a cup!“

“Of the many coffee shops in Old City, this is one of my favorites. It has some of the best matcha I've ever had and I love their flavors. Ive heard equally as good things about their coffee. Their butter crossaint is unreal good and generally theyre comparably priced to the area. They also have an awesome patio area where I sat with my furry son for a bit, really great spot overall.“

“You should definitely check out Café Tolia! It's perfect for anyone wanting really good food and coffee in a place that feels warm and welcoming. The vibe is super cozy, making it an ideal spot to just chill out, and everything just looks so pretty! The little details they pay attention to, the friendly service, and the overall lovely atmosphere really made the whole visit a pleasure.“

“Yet another hidden gem in Philly. I came in for the first time today by chance and immediately felt so so so welcomed into the space. It is much smaller of a space than Madis Coffee Roasters (Twisted Grounds has only a few small tables to sit), but the staff is equally as kind, friendly, talkative, and enjoyable to be around. You can quickly tell that the team here has a great rapport with each other, and it makes the atmosphere comfortable and fun to be in. They have super cute merch and engaging conversations. I'm excited for this to be one of my regular haunts in Philly. The manager runs this place like a well-oiled machine.“

“First time there, excellent food.“

“I really love the relaxed atmosphere here and the incredible variety. My daughter cannot get enough of the cannolis. I asked her which one of the three highlighted she wanted when I brought her in there yesterday and she said yes please. Lol the staff are so very kind and gracious and attentive, and it is a really really nice place to have in the area and I’m so happy I found it.“

“I’ve walked by this spot so many times, and it seemed every time I was hungry they were closed (closed on weekends) but today I finally stepped in. I ordered 2 bánh mìs and a Vietnamese coffee. Pete, the owner/operator of the spot was the only one there and we instantly jumped into great conversation about the music scene in Philly back in the late 90s. We ended up knowing a lot of the same people. Philly is a tight knit group. So even before eating the food I was already a fan of this spot. Pete served me his special take on Vietnamese coffee while we talked and he made the sandwiches. The iced coffee was excellent, but different and less sweet than Vietnamese coffee I’ve had in the past. He also used ice cubes made of coffee which was an added bonus for a coffee junkie like myself. After we talked for nearly 20 min, I walked home with my sandwich and WOW! Such a solid bánh mì! I told him to make it like he would make it for himself (spicy) and he knocked it out of the park. I’ll be back and I’ll be bringing all my music friends here when they are in the neighborhood. I highly encourage Olde City residents as well as Philly locals to give this place a try!“

“This is maybe one of my favorite coffee shops anywhere. First of all, the space is just too awesome, exactly what I think of when I think of a coffee shop. Love the open windows, small and simple menu, and the total vibe. Wish I had this close by but live to visit when in Philly! If you’re looking for great coffee in an awesome space, stop here!“

“Good coffee, good pastries, good quiche, nice atmosphere, wonderful staff and owners!“

“I ate here in 2023 on vacay and had to come back to Philadelphia just to eat here a few months ago. Honestly, eating here is THE reason I flew back to Philly. Vegetable combo and the salad are the best. Will be back as often as I have time to fly back out. Thank you Almaz.“

“Delicious mocha and espresso. One of the best espressos I’ve had in the city. Cute atmosphere. Def recommend“

“We are visuting from Memphis. Randomly stopped in and was amazed with their Vanilla-Chai Latte...a wonderfully complex explosion of exotic flavors. Thank You Jiggy!Wish you were in Memphis too!“

“Really loved this boba spot. It’s super clean, calming, and has a fresh vibe that just feels good to be in. The staff were friendly and quick. I got the signature drink super smooth and not too sweet. Everything just felt well-made and thoughtful. Definitely a new go-“

“Friendly atmosphere . Great food and great service.“

“Awesome experience if you are a coffee drinker.“

“oh this was my favourite place in philadelphia. fantastic location, great service and great food. excellent music too. if I lived in philly this would be my local. thanks everyone for a fabulous experience. ❤️“

“1st time there and can’t wait to go back! Great atmosphere, customer service and outstanding food! Loved the variety and unique tacos. Highly recommend. 👍🏻“

“Most delicious specialty coffee in the city“

“So I have been to Philly several times and this restaurant has been on my radar to try. Finally made sure it got included in my culinary trip to Philadelphia. After asking for a recommendation between some didhes I could not decide on...my main and desert, my waiter gave recommendations that did not disappoint. The Carbonara was excellent.and the Budino di Pane scrumptious! I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience. It was busy and just a little too noisy for me, but if you enjoy the hustle and bustle of an eatery, you will love this restaurant! I recommend and hopefully get to come again on another visit to Philly.“

“Wonderful friendly staff, great brew too! I had the clever pour coffee it was fabulous!“

“The ambience is great the smell is intoxicating and the customer service is excellent!!!“

“The baristas here are always super friendly, and the drinks are always tasty! There seems to be some lingering smell from possibly an HVAC issue. If it wasnt for that, I'd definitely hang out more here as they're pretty close to the house“

“Absolutely love this place! The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. The coffee is top-notch, smooth and flavorful, and don’t even get me started on the croissants… buttery, flaky perfection. Highly recommend!“

“I had a wonderful experience here. Ended up having a great conversation with the owner about community and how we can all support each other as humans. I was there for quite some time so I ended up enjoying both breakfast and lunch. I ordered the bacon and egg sandwich on a croissant, mocha latte, the fruit and Nutella crepe, and the chicken crepe to go for my partner. I enjoyed everything I had in the restaurant though I wish the breakfast sandwich had more than two piece of bacon. My partner said her crepe was delicious as well. I would definitely return and I recommend it to others especially those that love working from cafes. The internet was fast and there were outlets to use.“

“I stopped by Coffee Malem on a trip to South Jersey. It was a lovely experience. The owner, Malem, was very welcoming and helped me to figure out which drink would be most catered to my taste. I ended up getting a specialty latte that was a mix of a pistachio latte and Spanish latte. Not only were the ingredients of the flavors top tier, the coffee itself was high quality and delicious. I will definitely be back here on every single trip down south, and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area. You won't regret it!“

“Best coffee shop in Philly!! A must-stop when in the city.“

“The best spanakopita I’ve had in a long time! Great coffee and friendly folks, too.“

“I kept hearing about this cafe all over TikTok and I am so glad I went. It’s definitely small and gets very packed during the weekend so sitting inside isn’t really plausible. There is seating on the outside tho! I had the coconut matcha and it was definitely one of the best matchas I’ve ever had!“

“Great corner cafe. Craving crepe? You can get it here. Craving unique coffee? You can get it here. Try the lavender latte, it’s delicious. Try the pistachio banana crepe, fresh bananas, not sickly pistachio spread and good size. Only negative - crepe was a little dry. Overall I did not feel terrible after eating it.

Good customer service and fast. Vibe is nice with cozy decorative.“

“The staff was great. The drinks and food was awesome! I loved it...“

“The chicken pot pie is awesome!! I've been stopping by the Lehigh Ave. location and the staff are always very nice & friendly!“

“Excellent coffee, pastries and environment !“

“This is hands down the best coffee shop in NoLibs. We discovered it over a year ago and have been going at least once a week ever since. I rarely get matcha out because so few places actually use good quality matcha and make it properly, but CNT does all of the above. They have monthly rotating flavor specials for coffee and matcha that are always incredible and made from scratch. The shop is also super dog friendly and our pup literally drags us down the street to go there anytime we are nearby.“

“I lived in Seattle for almost two decades and will admit to being a bit of a coffee shop snob. The Nook hits so many of my high points. Extremely good locally roasted coffee (in-house!). Amazing baked goods. The cocoa coffee bread must be tried, but leave me a slice! Great staff. If I ever move out of the neighborhood, I'll journey to the Nook for a great cup and bite.“

“Wanted to try a local coffee shop while visiting NJ an was not disappointed!! Had a gingerbread latte with homemade sweet potato creamer and pumpkin whipped cream. 10/10!! Best fall drink I’ve had!“

“Ultimo Coffee is an exceptional coffee experience that exceeds expectations. From the warm and inviting atmosphere to the friendly and knowledgeable baristas, every detail is carefully crafted. The coffee itself is outstanding, with a range of flavors and high-quality beans. The ambiance is cozy yet modern, providing a perfect setting to enjoy your coffee. The staff delivers exceptional service, showing their genuine passion for coffee and ensuring a memorable visit. Ultimo Coffee is a must-visit for coffee enthusiasts seeking an outstanding coffee experience.🙌🥳“

“The chicken pot pie is awesome!! I've been stopping by the Lehigh Ave. location and the staff are always very nice & friendly!“

“The best coffee shop in the area!“

“Delicious coffee and great food!“

“yes....great place. chill. good food...and, of course, coffee...“

“Cute place, amazing atmosphere, wonderful soundtrack, unfortunately is super small (if you are in a group probably this is not your place to eat). We sat outside in a morning of summer, but it was super good and windy. They have a large options to eat and each picture makes our choices more difficult.
The food was great (panini caprese and prosciutto croissants).
I just don’t give 5 stars because the customer service was ok. They could be kinder to customers“
