50 Best Coffee Shops near Riverton

“I had a good experience. Staff was amazing and the food was good. Very welcoming and location gives you a relaxing feeling to a peaceful time alone or with others.“

“Juanita's has the best Mexican food in the area. All of their tacos and tostadas are excellent. the shrimp dishes are all great also, especially the camarones con crema. You can't go wrong here.“

“First time there, excellent food.“

“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!“

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!“

“Fantastic community spot. The staff is high energy and so friendly. The type of place where you walk in and everyone is happy to see you. The coffee isn’t my favorite (flavor wise) but they always change up their special drinks. Simple offering of food and solid selection of pastries. Cash only (but there’s an ATM inside)“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“i went for the first time and they are very professional people - and lucky me it was on the house - not sure who paid for me and my kids - also restrooms are spotless meaning great place we will return for sure“

“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!“

“Great experience. Modern design, well lit, ample parking, great food and coffee, very reasonable prices. Service by Besi (I think that’s how you spell his name) was phenomenal. Just very personable staff members who take the time to get to know their customers, but also leave them to do their work. They serve premium coffee from Italy with a delicious taste and great potency. I will absolutely be returning to this spot.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Friendly atmosphere . Great food and great service.“

“Most delicious specialty coffee in the city“

“The owner was so kind and helpful. He was invested in ensuring that my friend and I left with coffee we were happy with and offered us some samples to allow us to pick our favorite. I would recommend Royal Mile to anyone, their lavender vanilla latte is the best I’ve ever had!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“we love Anthony's coffee shop and make it point to stop in and stock up on Italian market roast coffee and biscotti! love the atmosphere and the yummy treats!“

“A genuinely great coffee experience. I visited this establishment multiple times over the course of several months. I love lattes and checking out new places. If I have a good experience, I'll frequent the establishment more. That said, Vessel Coffee delivers quality cafe food and tricks, as well as quality service.

The atmosphere is very calm (tall, large windows and spacious seating), inside is mostly clean (though there were times tables still needed to be wiped down after previous use), and the staff is warm, welcoming and polite. They're not in a rush nor do they look like they hate their jobs (that said, patrons, remember to be patient and respectful as well). The actual drinks are well made. They have gluten free options for the sensitive although these aren't house-made. I loved the GF lemon blueberry scones.

Definitely check out this hidden gem if you want to enjoy a cup of coffee with great staff and a good environment. Though I no longer live in Philly, this will definitely be a place I'd recommend to anyone that wants coffee and a hospitable experience.

I hope the quality of this cafe remains and that they stay open for a long time. Best of luck to Vessel Coffee.“

“My first taste of Shakshuka and it was amazing! Very comfortable place, too. My partner had a smoked turkey sandwich that had a lot of great flavor!“

“A good selection of healthy breakfast options to get started with one's day and lovely coffee, shining with care and passion for perfection and style. All served with smile, attention to detail and, not least important - patience for natural tourist indecisiveness.

I also loved the nice and clearly curated interior and the playlist of some mellow jazz. Five star, top to bottom with no reservations!“

“Loved the environment, the employees and the delicious food!! Yesterday was our first visit and everything was amazing!! The sweet employees made the visit that much more 'thrilling' I can't say enough good things about the entire experience. We will definitely be back!! Thank you!! --We tried the Korean hot dogs, milk tea bobba, mochi ice cream and mochidonuts!! We loved everything!!!“

“Best coffee in Philadelphia !!!“

“I love this place. Fast friendly service, delicious food“

“This has been my go to coffee spot for years. Faith, Maggy and the entire crew are awesome! It feels like I’m grabbing coffee at a friend’s place. The coffee is fantastic and my iced americano is consistently the same taste which I really like. I am in and out within minutes, ideal for a quick stop on the run. All in all great coffee shop!“

“I love just love this place and their cakes. Very tasty beautiful and great served. Thank god they are 40 minutes away from me. Otherwise I would be there every day.“

“If you’re looking for a great latte,coffee,breakfast sandwich or dessert look no more because the Great Awakening has the best, the vibe inside is so welcoming and all the workers make you feel like family it’s truly a hidden gem. I look forward to seeing everyone at the cafe and enjoy the awesome coffee they make.“

“Literally every time we’re in philly we stop by Ox and have coffee. It’s a must have“

“This was my first time visiting here…. Loved the vanilla sugar donut, drip coffee, and latte; they have sparkling water and regular water as self serve for convenience. So many people come here to get studying done. If I had to nitpick, their music selection was a little goth-y lol. Will visit again with ear plugs.“

“my favorite place in Philly for matcha! matcha quality is authentic and ceremonial grade and you can definitely taste it. I got the matcha bomb latte and the milk was not overpowering and the drink was not too sweet at all. would recommend to anyone looking for real, strong matcha.“

“Me and my girlfriend came here on Sunday and the food was so amazingly delicious we had to get good photos of everything we got! We wanted to try different things to share and boy oh boy was it worth it. 10/10 highly recommended, definitely will be here again! The owner is amazing nice and thoughtful, the atmosphere of the restaurant is so authentic and gives that feel for home. I loved it!“

“The best coffee shop in the area!“

“Amazing service! Pour over was the strong hit I needed this morning. The star of the show was the breakfast sandwich with the most creamy and fluffy egg with… spam?? To top it off, the scallion jam was a perfect pair. Cool record collection upstairs too“

“As a lifelong local, the idea of a turkey sandwich served on a pretzel blows my mind. I appreciate that the menu offers vegan options. The cinnamon pretzel is also a nice treat. Looking forward to going back.“
