“Second visit here & I'm still impressed. First visit i had the waffle, a latte and a basic breakfast plate. No complaints. This time I ordered the million dollar bacon with shrimp & grits. It was delicious! The sunrise drink was amazing as well. Service was pleasant and prompt. The atmosphere was chill. I'll definitely be back ♡“

“I have enjoyed this place since it opened! The staff is magnificent. They are personable and take care of you! The atmosphere is wonderful. It is a wood decor. There is not a lot of seating inside, but there is ample seating outside. There is a good size parking lot (approximately 15 spots) and more parking right out front. The food and coffee is wonderful!The lattes are not extremely sweet of the syrups I get. This is a preference of mine real and strong coffee locally roasted!“

“1. The food is delightful and worth the try.2. Drinks were pretty good, especially for non coffee drinkers.3. For the Banh Mi and Sando, the bread was crisp and airy. All the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The Sando has an onion aioli that is slightly overpowering (for my personal preference).4. The service was nice and friendly.5. The atmosphere is very homey and welcoming. Nice place eat and hang out with your friends and family.“

“Il Sorriso is a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of the city. The moment you step in, you're greeted by the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

Whether you're a coffee aficionado or just looking for a relaxing atmosphere, Il Sorriso never disappoints.“

“Stopped in from out of town. This is exactly the coffee shop you're looking for. Quick and informative service. Roasts and pulls well executed. Food was super delicious with a full spectrum of options and flavors over an uncomplicated menu.“

“Well, yes, it's a small stone barn in historic Rittenhousetown, tucked out of sight. The first thing you see upon entering is a counter with an espresso machine behind it, and to your right is the workroom. Paul is charming, helpful and highly skilled, well-spoken; he brought my vintage Stump Jumper back into smooth working condition. Often at bike shops I have encountered a somewhat dismissive hipster-y attitude, but not here. A rare type of bike-repair establishment, and we in Germantown are lucky to have it.“

“Food was fresh, delicious, and fairly priced. Beware of the pickled jalapeños if you are sensitive to spicy food.Both their beef gyro and falafel were the best I’ve ever had. Please keep in mind that I don’t even like meat and I’ve been struggling with anorexia for decades. So it’s very difficult for me to eat anything unless it’s super fresh and extraordinarily tasty. This place is a true gem and treasure.Service was outstanding, The owner-host made us feel immediately welcomed and at ease. She let us customize our order and was very prompt with our food. She was very knowledgeable about the ingredients they use, as well.The seating area is small, but that is to be expected in this area.Overall, this was by far our favorite restaurant to visit in the Philly area.Vegetarian options: they have falafel, grape leaves, hummus, baba ghanoush, salads, you name it! they offer endless customization options if you’d like, as well.Dietary restrictions: they serve halal, and they are knowledgeable about the ingredients they use.“

“This morning, as I was on my way to work, I had a little bit of time to grab a cup of coffee before catching my train. I came across this quaint cafe and decided to check it out. I am so glad that I did. Not only did I get a cup of coffee but I also got an egg & cheese sandwich on a croissant. My breakfast was absolutely amazing. The croissant was buttery and fresh. The sandwich literally melted in my mouth and the coffee was the finishing touch! I told the workers that this was the best breakfast sandwich that I ever had! I will DEFINITELY be back and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND supporting this small business. Tell em that James sent you and YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!“

“I wanted to check out a new coffee shop a couple months ago after moving nearby, and was drawn in by the very friendly staff. Will and Dom in particular are fantastic and get to know you by name. The coffee is fantastic and best bagels in philly no doubt. I drive from Mannyunk as often as I can to hang there!“

“I was visiting town for work and stopped here for breakfast on my first day in town. Locals were friendly and welcoming as was the staff. I tried their cornbread and gravy biscuits. Was really good if different than I'm used to with southern biscuits and gravy.I had heard of scrapple before, and I tried the scrapple fries. Which is just fried sticks of scrapple. The outside was crunchy and the inside was cloud like. The taste was great. I plan on seeing if I can find scrapple when I get home to make some scrapple fries myself.“

“I just want them to make my coffee and design my apartment ? the cappuccino is the smoothest that I've had in Philly and the decorum is exquisite. The price is very affordable for a cappuccino and it's CONSISTENTLY well made, which is rare for a coffee shop. Not to mention they're open on Christmas when everyone else is closed and I appreciate that. My 5 year old and I go and sit here for hours and write and read and laugh. It's an amazing atmosphere.“

“Stopped into Thunder Mug Cafe for a pick me up yesterday. I understand why it was named Philly's favorite coffee house. Apparently everyone else heard the news, too. The place was packed! The service was friendly and efficient and my iced SF caramel coffee and beignet were delish! Google review coming!“

“Stopped in for a quick to go breakfast sandwich. Lovely local restaurant with friendly and helpful service. Ordered an egg and cheese on a brioche bun. They warmed the bun and my sandwich was great! If I'm back in the area I'll definitely be back to sit down and have a meal.“

“The staff was really kind. The place is absolutely gorgeous and has a cozy vibe. The coffee is so delicious. The star is the giant cookies! They are buttery and soft and the chocolate flavor is pronounce but not over powering! I can’t wait to see what else they will offer!“

“This is a fantastic brunch spot. Although they don't take reservations, we only had to wait a few minutes for a table to be arranged and cleaned. I ordered the crab Benedict, which featured perfectly poached eggs. The bread, thicker than a traditional English muffin, complemented the dish well. It was served with standard potatoes. The highlight was the Butter Pecan pancake with caramelized banana—possibly the best pancake I've ever had, though crispy edges would have made it even better. I also ordered orange juice, which was good but less impressive due to the pulp. Overall, I highly recommend this place for brunch and am looking forward to returning.“

“The homemade food here is delicious, there are always a lot of people, I didn’t like one thing - I ordered 2 pieces of cake with me, the seller counted it, went to cut my cake into a container, I saw that it was big and said, excuse me, can I have one piece, she cut two, I I gave one to the other and took it to the shelf and I paid for two pieces, I didn’t like it, I wasn’t pleased, since I don’t speak English well, I couldn’t tell her or explain anything! Yes, it’s not a lot of money, well, you can’t do that ? like this sales girl! I didn’t deduct the second piece of cake from the payment! My husband and I were here, I ordered soup, a vegetarian burrito and 2 salads with tuna, well, they brought one salad and I paid for two salads, so I didn’t wait for my portion of salad, I ate the burrito ? and we left..“

“I tried the bergamot latte and it's so refreshing! I've never had this flavor anywhere else which makes this cafe a little different from others. It can be quite small and there's an upstairs with a couple tables. I've seen that they used to have more seating in the past but half the space is a vinyl store, so it can be difficult to find seating. The barista was so friendly and welcoming too!“

“This was my first but definitely not my last visit. I was “Welcomed Home” before I let go of the door handle and yes, it felt like home. Wonderful friendly staff, delicious options, fast service and food so good I was tempted to lick my plate(s) Thank you Keia and Welcome Home for your hospitality See you soon“

“Artesano Cafe in Manayunk is the spot to hit up for breakfast or just a coffee run. I loveeed their outdoor food truck. Their breakfast sandwich with a special maple spread is so good! I would've never thought to add that on a breakfast sandwhich. And the tater tots?! So crispy, so good. It was a decent enough day outside to sit outdoors, but their inside setup is pretty cozy too. Definitely stop by!“

“The only critique I would have is that they need a better roll for the steak sandwich and it needs to be gutted. Now saying that I prefer the texture on the outside of the role to be different than the inside of the role. The roll feels like I’m eating white bread with seeds. But other than that, everything is delicious. I do not want to discourage you from getting the cheesesteak because it’s so good. I’ve had it several times! Like I said just prefer a different roll. The owner is very personable and besides the food bringing you back, you want to go back because of the owner.“

“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.“

“Her daughters is my absolute favorite coffee shop in Philly. I drive by so many just to come here! Every single thing we’ve tried, we’ve never been disappointed. My favorite drink is an iced dirty chai, they have the best chai! The iced ginger snap chai really had me in a chokehold during the holiday season! My husband’s favorite is the Vietname iced coffee! I’ve recently been trying an iced red ice, which I also love! Their bakery selection is always so good & fresh! All hits, no misses, always. & the staff is always so nice & welcoming!!“

“The food tastes fresh. Lots of interesting local stuff going on in here.. I would have gone 5 star but my last 2 platter orders were missing the red peppers, cucumbers and carrots.. I mean cmon that’s most of the fresh veggies that’s supposed to be included and no one told me they’re out.. unless the menu posted here 1 month ago has changed, was happy with what I got but disappointed in lack of fresh veg“

“The workers were super friendly! My London fog was tasty. They didn't add any sugar to it so I added my own, but I actually appreciate that because it's not fun when it's overly sweet. The sticky bun I had was heavenly. Someone put their heart and soul into making that thing. So sweet and buttery and flavorful. Atmosphere was also cute. Not overly busy, good for working. Place is kinda small, but I was thankful for an open seat. Very clean and welcoming. I would recommend!“

“First of all--I'm glad to be introduced to another Black owned bakery! And the customer service is great. My aunt located this place when looking for treats for my grandma's bday. Everything was delicious and were a hit with the family, including the cookies. They really have too many cupcake options to choose from ?. I recently stopped by and tried the delicious sweet potato & strawberry shortcake cupcakes. I also have tried the Oreo and Turkey Bacon ones, which were good, too. I'm literally sad it's a Monday and can't wait until Wednesday to visit.“

“Nice little stop to grab a coffee and a quick bite. Everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is cozy coffee house vibes without the pretentious or hipster feel. There are always coffee concoction specials that pair perfectly with the various pastries they offer.“

“I frequently ate at Elcy's Café and had coffee there. It's a convenient local coffee shop where you can grab breakfast before your commute. The environment is both professional and welcoming. I had a great time at Elcy's Café. The only thing I dislike about this place is how pricey it can get. All things considered, though, this is a fantastic neighborhood café with stuff available.“

“Another Black Owned Business In Any Community Is A Plus For The Community (May Allah Continue To Give You Success) The Brotherly Hospitality Was Great Along With The Food Even Tho My Food Options Were Very Limited Due To Being A PlantBased Food Consumer #Hint #Hint See You Brothers Again Unk Suge.. MilkDietary restrictions: Let's Get That PlantBased Grill & Menu Up.ThankYou In Advance“

“My boyfriend and his colleague went there for a meeting. He doesn't like leaving reviews. He came home raving about the blue cheese burger they have there. Apparently the buns are delightful and they melt real blue cheese on it. I told him we are going there for our next date night lol. The way he talked about it, I can't wait.“

“Richie is there every day to greet you with a smile. And although it can get really busy, he has an efficient system & tries to get you your food ASAP. Food is good & coffee is great too. He also makes each of his customers feel really special, which is a nice plus.“

“Chestnut Hill & Wyndmoor have been in desperate need of a great sweet green style salad place. After my first salad from Froot, I'm so happy!! I bet it keeps getting better as they work out the ordering and process but my salad was excellent!“

“Picked up a bag of beans after chatting with the Baristas about flavors I go for. The Rwanda beans they recommended have been a lovely addition to my morning. This was during the May street festival and they were cool & calm even with a busy crowd coming in and out of the shop.“

“Fox Chase Nutrition provides awesome customer service. The shakes and teas taste delicious. I felt like family from the first time I walked into the shop. Also the community is wonderful. Everyone supports each other. If you haven't tried their products, I would suggest that you do. You won't be disappointed.“

“This is one of my favorite places to get a great smoothie. Everything about this place is like heaven on earth. If you don’t know what heaven is, then this is the place. The atmosphere is amazing and they always play great music.Kid-friendliness: This is a place you can definitely bring your kids and family. The environment is so amazing and peaceful. And the workers are always polite and professional.“

“Sweet cozy place! Convenient to SEPTA Regional Rail, pick up and go! Quality beverage cups! Lids fit, solid build, and good sleeves that ensure a smooth beverage experience! boutique offerings and friendly staff. Management is always working hard to maintain quality product and service offerings! Cheers to #“

“I've order take out/delivered breakfast from here a few times and it was delicious ?. I'm very particular about breakfast food and I wasn't disappointed. It was clean and fresh and the presentation of food was great. The only thing to know is that they do not mix the eggs with cheese instead they have the cheese sitting on top of the eggs.“

“As I'm sure many have mentioned, this place is very aesthetic and the atmosphere is nice, including the music. It would surprise you how many places just play any music now - classic steak houses playing mumble rap. Anyway, we got the chicken fricassee, the Shaffle Waffle, a flavored tea, and the Mirage(dessert) and Medovik(dessert). The tea set was very cute, with a tea light warmer underneath, but I wasn't a fan of the tea - my boyfriend ordered some sort of lemongrass tea. The chicken part of the fricassee itself was great, but the rice was dry, almost like it was reheated from the previous day. A slice of bread to wipe up the remainder of the yummy sauce would've been nice. The waffle was also dry - like they made a big batch and just reheated to serve - which is fine when done correctly but in this instance was tough and chewy - maybe cover it so it remains moist? The desserts were okay, nothing memorable but decent. Portion sizes were on the small side but we were still full by the time the meal was done. I wouldn't mind coming here again with my girls for the experience but it won't be my main spot. The vision is there, it just needs some tweaking.Edit:I changed this from 3 to 4 stars because looking back at other reviews, they handle the negatives with grace and do seem to make efforts to rectify things people have had issues with. One person mentioned that they weren't very attentive, but today they were so it seems to me that they do put the effort in to review themselves and make changes.“

“My husband and I have ordered takeout from here several times, everything we have tried has been amazing. We are happy to have such a great place for breakfast and lunch so close to our house. We have also ordered from their holiday catering menu and it was great.“

“A wide variety of delicious comfort foods in a hip space with friendly service. They also have several economical frozen to-go meals that are ready to microwave and came out fantastic. Even my non-vegan 20 year old loved them. This is one of the top spots in Philly for tasty sandwiches and soups, whether you're vegan or not. l will be coming here more often!“

“Best coffee, great breakfast sandwich and baked goods. Lunch sandwiches are good too. I'm here every week buying a bag of their imperial roast.Vegetarian options: They have breakfast and lunch options which are vegetarianDietary restrictions: Some gluten free optionsKid-friendliness: Folks with kids here all the timeWheelchair accessibility: Double doors open to sidewalk with no step and are wheelchair accessible“

“This is the second time I’ve gone to Curds and Whey, but this was the 1st time for takeout. I wish I had taken a picture before I devoured the DELICIOUS Maryellen salad. The honey goat cheese, the homemade maple dressing, the chicken. All of it. My husband watched me eat it once I got home and he said you sure are enjoying that aren’t you!? Maria waited on me and was very attentive, prompt, helpful, and happy … which sometimes you just don’t find.Can’t wait for dinner… I knew what kind of day it was going to be and thought I’m buying dinner! So we will see, but I bet the chicken piccata and the roasted butternut squash with walnuts and craisins are going to totally hit the spot. Definitely would recommend this place.“

“This is a chill spot right on the park. Dominick and the server there were very friendly, I had an amazing turkey reuben and 2 lattes. Will be back often! I posted the view of the park from the cafe. Trails are accessible and it looks as though there is a way to access this cafe from the Pennypack trail. I walked around the trail a bit and saw some hikers with fishing poles. Very peaceful.“

“I really like this coffee shop. The food is great, you don't feel rushed when looking at all of the flavors that they have, and it feels like home. It can feel a little bit messy upon your first time with everything there, but it's a small shop so it can get a bit cluttered.“

“We are celebrated our mother's Birthday at Cafe light. I want to say a BIG thank you for such a warm atmosphere, wonderful staff, delicious food, cozy room. Dishes surprise with excellent presentation and taste. Svetlana and your entire team, thank you, we have never tasted anything tastier in restaurants in 13 years in America. You are amazing. Highly recommend this place.“

“Jamil’s Cafe catered my daughter’s baby shower. Food was excellent. Arrived on time fresh and hot. He set up and gave me extra equipment. Everyone loved the food seasoned to perfection. The professionalism I received from beginning to the end was outstanding. Definitely booking again :)“

“I went here twice during a visit to Temple University. The first time I went was later in the afternoon and they had run out of many of the freshly baked items. The coffee I had both times was nicely made and the flavor was great.In general, the staff were courteous and asked my name for my order.The decor is simple, but welcoming and the vibe is casual. There are wooden tables and chairs for those who want to have their coffee inside the cafe.“

“Visiting from Georgia and this has easily become a favorite breakfast/brunch spot! The first time I dined here for breakfast I got the pancakes and they were fluffy and excellent, this time I got the strawberry French toast and was absolutely overwhelmed with how amazing and fresh it tasted. The staff is very friendly and attentive as well, overall a great choice, so glad I was introduced to this establishment by some friends!“

“Absolutely one of my favorite places for breakfast. Egg and cheese croissant had the perfect mix of cheesiness and egg, the croissant was also very well textured. Great location in the forest, only issue is that it's pretty difficult to get to for anything other than bike, making it more one of those places you go to if hiking, not if you're just getting breakfast or lunch.“
