“Walking into REN’s feels like stepping into a cozy refuge from the chaos of the outside world. This place is not just a coffee shop, not just a bookstore—it’s a community hub, a creative sanctuary, and a labor of love brought to life by one of the most inspiring owners you’ll ever meet. The owner, is the heart and soul of the place. Their passion for people, literature, and coffee shines through in everything—from the hand-picked book selection to the thoughtfully crafted drinks and baked goods. They know their regulars by name, support local artists and authors, and host events that bring people together in meaningful ways. Whether it's book clubs, charity drives, or just offering a warm smile to someone who needs it, they go above and beyond. The coffee? Phenomenal. Smooth, bold, and consistently delicious. And the pastries and snacks are always fresh, with plenty of local and seasonal ingredients. As for the books—expect a mix of beloved classics, hidden indie gems, and everything in between. It’s the kind of place where you go in for one thing and leave with five (and no regrets).

“I am new to the cheesesteaks here even though I was born and raised in South Jersey. I was today years old when I first had a cheesesteak with onions. Excellent moist but not soggy sandwich and love the roll! My first Donkey's sandwich will NOT be my last!! Yummy!!“

“My husband is a lifelong Texan and we recently moved to Philly from Austin and have been searching for good breakfast tacos to no avail, until we found Taco Heart. He loves the Troubadour and the Carrine’s Fave. They have excellent options for me as a vegetarian, too. The migas…chefs kiss! And we love the brrrchata.

But the real thing that makes them taste like home is the green jalepeno sauce. It’s impossible to find. But they make it perfectly!!“

“The food was wonderful as the service was fast. I couldn’t believe the check. Extremely reasonable for all you get. I’d definitely recommend Kanella to anyone“

“Dave was a great waiter! We enjoyed our time“

“Excellent Food & Amazing Service 👍👍“

“4th Street Delicatessen is a one of a kind city deli with tons of history and character. We ordered the Zaftig pastrami sandwich on rye, and it was absolutely worth it — the pastrami was piled high, tender, and full of flavor, and the rye bread held everything together perfectly. The portions are generous, so definitely come hungry. The service was great. Keira was friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and they even gave complimentary cookies at the end, which was such a nice touch. Parking is tough, but that’s expected in the city. It is on the expensive side, but honestly, with the location and portion sizes, what can you expect? Overall, great food and great service.“

“Being a transplant from NYC, I woke up feeling for a pastrami sandwich. Quick google search showed this place. Packed the car with my family and took the 30 minute drive. The atmosphere was great, staff were very professional and above all the sandwich was tasty. I definitely will be back.“

“We have eaten here several times and have always enjoyed great service and excellent food!!“

“Great restaurant and atmosphere. The food is delicious. My only complaint would be for the food to be less salty. Nice selection of food choices. The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. It was very cold the night we dined at this restaurant and the staff offered hot water and lemon right away to warm us up. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We love Herman’s Coffee both as a business and a customer. They have good coffee and a great environment to start your day!!! +love their collaborations with small businesses 🤩“

“The service was a bit slow at times, but generally fine! And when we asked to close the door because it was cold, they were quite accommodating. The food is always good and we always have leftovers. It may be a bit pricy, but not too bad when you consider you get dinner AND lunch!“

“This was our second time here. I had the Keylime gelato and my husband had the pistachio cheesecake gelato. Always so delicious! Thank you guys for having the best gelato around!!“

“Absolutely worth the trip to come here! The Omurice was phenomenal, the taro tea was amazing, and the cherry blossom jelly nearly brought me to tears. Will be coming back soon.“

“A wonderful experience. Well priced, excellent barbecue (shashlik) and dumplings (mante). The owner and staff are so kind, attentive and happy to share Kazakh culture. Many dishes are staples of any eastern bloc family table and it's cooked home style. Happy to accommodate large parties and special events, I had my birthday and graduation parties there. Try the compot (steeped apple juice).“

“Fantastic!! Queso fundido with chorizo served with flour tortillas was amazing. The birria tacos are definitely worth getting again. And the drinks were delicious and delightful. The Sangre de Bruja and the Purgotorio!!!“

“Everything is so fresh and tasty!! Kelly was so helpful in helping us newbies build the perfect gyro!!“

“Treated ourselves to this place we saw on diners driveins and dives after shoveling a whole bunch of snow. The atmosphere is great, packed especially for a winter storm day. There were only three servers and one of them had to bartend as well, but food and drink came super fast. They are doing the best they can!

Got their brunch special with duck (which is absolutely delicious), a veggie burger, French onion soup (urgently needed in this weather), 1 cocktail and 2 desserts. Total came up to $77 before tax and tips. Great deal. Totally worth walking half an hour in 20 inches of snow for.“

“This is a delicious spot!!! I got the s'mores crepe and it had whole graham crackers in the middle so you get a great crunch! Hubs devoured his strawberry and Nutella crepe. They had a connect four on the wall so we played that as we waited for our food. Crepes came out quickly.

Went back a second time. Still amazing. Highly recommend the work of art of the brownie crepe!“

“Our first visit there since before they closed down for COVID. Still excellent, courteous and efficient staff, quick service, generous portions, high quality. Five stars, highly recommended.“

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

“It’s a cute cafe. Banh Mi is good . Love how they use seeded bread. I like the blended espresso and my daughter likes the cookies & cream.😋 The catering food was delicious . My guests liked the shrimp tapioca wrapped in banana leaves. Spring rolls was very stuffed with lots of meat . Highly recommend this place!“

“Love it and it’s eagles central“

“Welcome to the Asian 9rh st. The area is complete with nuance of fish heads and stray cats. The Filthy Orient would fit in well in this area. The pretzels are tasty ,but I have to disinfect my work boots when I leave this store.“
