50 Best Cafes near Stratford

“4/28/26 around 6:10 PM. Wonderful young man taking drive-thru order. Polite and courteous. I could hear and understand him. Loved the BLT meal with the fantastic warm chips. Ordered a Boston Cream doughnut and it was soft and fresh tasting after 6 PM. You won't be disappointed.“

“This is exactly what you want from a small counter service shop. The pastries and menu items are unique to the area and very flavorful. Items marked spicy are truly spicy, so be careful if you're sensitive to spice. The dining area is cozy but not cramped. Food and drinks are ready fast, and the staff is friendly and attentive.“

“Everyone loved every bite! One of my favorite brunch places in and around the city. Awesome food, and attentive service! #lEtsreAlesTate“

“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 🤩“

“this place is AMAZING i work in the building and lets say the loaded potato soup has me and several coworkers HOOKED !!!“

“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!“

“Ordered a birthday cake. It was delicious!“

“Love the breakfast basket!“

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

“I’ve been getting banh mi from Cafe Cuong for over 15 years, they have the best banh mi in town. However, last time I went in 2025, the young guy at the counter overcharged $5…this is not about the 5 bucks that he try to steal, it’s about even with loyal customers, he’s still trying to to screw over. Really smart running the business..I stop going!“

“The place was crowded on a Friday eve. They were out of ube ice cream. I got the matcha soft serve instead which was pretty good. They have generic flimsy plastic spoon utensils that you just grab - wish they have more hygienic ones that they give to you in your ice cream or those sealed single use wooden ice cream scoopers.

The place is nothing fancy and not for a quiet sit down but you can get your ice cream or drink here to go.“

“Awesome food Fun place First time here as we visit Philadelphia“

“A wonderful place for many coffee and tea choices, croissant sandwiches, bagel sandwiches, muffins, fritters, et cetera.
Very relaxing,books available to read, and comfortable seating to read and enjoy your coffee, tea, or smoothie. Smoothies are absolutely refreshing and delicious!
All bakery items are fresh and all sandwiches are made to order.
The staff is very friendly and very helpful.
I absolutely love this wonderful place!“

“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.“

“Just ate here with my family. The food was amazing, staff was great, the owner was present and gave us good recommendations. The food here is top notch! Will definitely be returning!!!“

“My waiter Chad was awesome“

“Best chocolate peanut butter banana smoothie I’ve ever had“

“Finally, a talented chef cooking healthy food in Philly! Whole foods, grass-fed, grass-finished ingredients, and you can tell by who eats here. A triumphantly masculine man walked in after us with his beautiful wife, kids, and mother—and he clearly eats here all the time. But the food was the star of the show: delicious, clean, and so good you'd swear your Italian mom made it. A rare find these days.“

“try the tomato bisque..omg“

“Beautiful shop, vibe matches the coffee. 10/10 taste /presentation/ barista. A nice stop for coffee truly.“

“Everything was great the iced coffee. The spring and chicken rolls. And for dessert the dubi chocolate and strawberries. Happy hour prices tue-fri 12pm-3pm“

“🥰Frieda: one of my most treasured places. I love its casual sophistication, delicious European-inspired food, and charming, considerate personnel.“

“Tee,the owner was so nice to us. It was my wife's birthday and she gave her some ice cream and pastry. Also to my son and I. The ice cream had a coating to it so I don't know the proper name. The Tad Phai was excellent along with the veggie and pork rolls. Next time we are trying the red and green Curry. This is a must visit. Don't let the size of the restaurant fool you.“

“😃Excellent breakfast sandwiches! Best in the area and I've tried a lot of them here after moving from NY.“

“Very good sandwiches and selection.Plus they stock a really good Australian ginger beer.“

“Great place. Baked goods are excellent and sandwiches are delicious. I had the best breakfast sandwich (BEC on biscuit) I’ve ever had there 2 weeks ago. Very friendly staff with a warm atmosphere. I highly recommend this place.“

“Just went to Sunday girl for the first time and the service was wonderful!! Such kind and caring staff and they make the drinks with care. Super creative drinks. They have a lot of cute memorabilia you can buy and some goods made from local artists which is very neat. The atmosphere is wonderful and it's so cute inside. I love that they support their community and are involved in events. They are all about kindness which I love, I only wish they would extend that kindness a little further and not upcharge those who avoid supporting the dairy industry. $1 per drink for non cow milk seems unnecessary. I hope they consider this and adding more vegan things to the menu instead of having cow milk (exploitation of women's reproductive systems!) in most of their items since the dairy industry is notoriously unkind.“

“This is our first time ordering on-line from You Cha Cafe. We were greeted by a very friendly couple. Our order was there waiting for us. All the ingredients in the Poke Bowls were very fresh and delicious. Glad to know a convenient place for great bowls. We will definately recommend.“

“*4.5/5 Stars*

I recently discovered Good Karma Cafe and I'm hooked! This charming spot exceeded my expectations with its warm atmosphere, top-notch service, and delicious food.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, happily answering our questions about the menu. We indulged in their mouthwatering chicken sandwiches on sourdough bread, paired with refreshing lemonade and iced tea. The cozy back dining room, adorned with vibrant art and lush greenery, made for a pleasant dining experience.

Their breakfast and brunch menu boasts an array of tempting options, making me eager to return. Standouts include the Colonel Mustard sandwich and almond croissant.

Good Karma Cafe excels in:

- Friendly, attentive staff
- Beautiful decor
- Excellent selection of hot and cold beverages
- Tasty sandwiches and pastries
- Ample seating
- Convenient WiFi and water for customers

Minor drawbacks:

- Limited outdoor seating
- Coffee (large latte) was bitter and milk was over-steamed (though smoothies were great!)

Overall, Good Karma Cafe is an ideal spot for a satisfying breakfast or lunch. I'll definitely be back for more!

Parking: Usually you can find a spot pretty close by“

“Fantastic place for breakfast and lunch. I always got take-out from here during the work week when I was running late, and their breakfast sandwiches rock. Love the breakfast burrito! Their paninis are great too, especially the tuna melt and pesto melt. Reliable, fast, and delicious.“

“I’m so glad this place was recommended to us! The bagels are so fresh and delicious!! The drinks are really good too. Everything we’ve tried so far has been so good. If you haven’t been I definitely recommend.“

“We just had the best breakfast here - amazing food, even better service. A true hole in the wall spot (because it’s tiny but so cute, lots of character!). I got eggs benedict and my husband got a breakfast burrito. We cleaned our plates! We’re from out of town, headed back to the airpot later, and our server offered to fill up our water bottles too. She was a delight. I thanked her for being so lovely and without missing a beat she said “I’ve learned that being mean to people doesn’t make me any taller!”“

“We were in PA for a graduation and before leaving, we were fortunate to eat at Café Tolia for Mother's Day Breakfast. I had the Egg and Cheese Breakfast Sandwich with Smoked Salmon and OMG the Brioche Bun, everything, was DELICIOUS!

The staff was so friendly and patient with our party of 7 and our orders :) and pulling together the tables to seat us.

LOVED the decor!

It was a perfect way to spend our Mother's Day morning. Thank You.“

“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!“

“Nice store and they sell ice creams, coffee, biscottis, chocolates and many more. This bakery is owned by the Termini Bros bakery as the receipt and bags are from Termini’s. I ordered the Pistachio ice cream, chocolate almond biscotti and cranberry pistachio biscottis. The ice cream is very creamy and delicious. I personally liked the chocolate biscotti than the cranberry and chocolate chip cinnamon biscotti. The staffs are friendly and courteous.“

“I love the food here. But i went there tonight around 730 and it was frigid outside. Just as we were sitting down to eat our food the worker decided to open the doors to carry all the outdoor furniture in then kept them open while he changed trash outside too. Not a care in the world for how freezing it was for his customers. It was extremely disappointing. We drive like 25 minutes to eat here. May be a while before we do that again.“

“My partner and I have absolutely loved coming in for late night Thursdays! There are next to no places in the area that are open past 8pm so this spot has been essential for us!! Absolutely love the vibes and the tea selection is excellent. I love being able to choose from several different tea lattes when many other places in the city are more coffee oriented. I really hope the late nights continue! The staff member that is usually working then is incredibly sweet.“

“My sisters and I decided to stop in for some coffee after brunch. The man in front of us in line wanted a muffin. They were honest and said one felt hard and dry, so they suggested another flavor that wasn’t. That impressed us. Then they answered our questions about best selling latte flavors and what some flavors were. Not only were they informative and gave their personal suggestions, but they were very courteous and kind.“

“Always love it here! Food, service and atmosphere are amazing!“

“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!“

“Big portions. Always amendable with options. Tons of vegan options. Gotta love it“

“If you love fresh juice 🥤🍎🍍 you HAVE to try Stephanie’s Creations Juice & Coffee Bar ✨ Everything is made fresh and tastes amazing 😋💛“

“Everything is great but I highly recommend Terry's French Dip, chicken sandwich, or the tuna. Easy grab and go options too.“

“We couldn't have been happier with our Torchwood catering experience! We ordered breakfast and lunch for an event, and the food was delicious and a huge hit. Everything arrived on time and was fresh. The quality and service was amazing, and we'll definitely be using them again for future events.“

“Definitely one of the best places in the area! Great place with delicious pastries and good coffee. Tried different pastries and all were fresh and delicious! People are very nice and friendly. Nice and cozy backyard. Prices are friendly. Soup and sandwiches were delicious! Give it a try you will not be disappointed!“

“The atmosphere was warm, welcoming and comfortable. I recommend the dumplings, they are amazing and their Tea was extremely good. I made sure to get more to take home.“

“friendly staff, yummy food, cool view! Had a great time with the kids!“

“Had the salmon, rice, beans and vegetables today and it was delicious! I normally don't like beans but they were scrumptious! Definitely worth every penny!“

“One of my 3 go to cafes in that part of the city, food is great, especially pastries, coffee is great, vibes are great, cute coffee shop with a bunch of tables chairs outside to enjoy a sunny morning. I decided to leave a review after seeing many bad ones, I’ve been there at least 20 times over the past 6-12 months and it’s been consistently a great place to have a coffee with a friend or your partner“

“I love the muffins especially the blueberry bran. However, they occasionally taste salty. I'm no baker but wonder if those particular batches haven't been mixed well.“
