50 Best Cafes near Fort Washington

“Sunday was my first visit to Zakes Cafe. The food was tremendous. I had the blueberry pancakes, the home fries, and bacon. However, the potatoes and the bacon were cold when they reached the table. I realized that the restaurant was busy, so I did not send anything back. I will return. However, if the food is cold again, I will send it back. Also, the coffee was very, very good.“

“Awesome cheesesteak!! Huge portion, loaded with onions. I tried the Black Pepper Cooper, not a huge fan. But that’s just a personal preference. Other then that, it was delicious. Highly recommend. Give them a try. Owner was very friendly also.“

“Loved dropping in here on a Saturday. Very relaxed vibes walking in here, perfect for a relaxed meet up, coffee or quick bite. My wife and I ordered the Ume Plum Tea, Vietnamese Latte, Khang’s Special Banh Mi, Crispy Tofu Banh Mi, and Doenjang Butter Fries. The Ume Plum Tea is so unique, and their Vietnamese Latte is the best I’ve had. Their food portions are big, and will definitely leave you full. Highly recommend this place!“

“Brie was our Barista! Made an amazing oatmilk latte. I've had these before but this one was different. creamy and delicious! She told me the oatmilk isn't found in the stores around there. They get it special. Along with that I enjoyed a toasted perfectly thick cut sourdough sandwich with salmon and house made bacon horseradish cream cheese. It was amazing. The hubs had a Moroccan Mint tea and a delicious bagel. We will be back for sure. If you haven't been it's a must!“

“We used Tina to cater my uncles surprise 70th birthday party. The brisket was delicious and is a must try! The potato salad was so creamy and seasoned perfectly. The crispy chicken was tender and juicy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The pierogies, pear salad and cabbage were also super tasty, all the guests were complimenting the food. Jesse who came to set up was pleasant, efficient and friendly, we will definitely be using Tina for our future catering needs!“

I look forward to seeing everyone at the cafe and enjoy the awesome coffee they make.“

“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!“

“We just moved here. Walked in to ask for a takeout menu. It felt so warm and inviting and the staff behind the counter were so friendly that we decided to stay. Our server Jessica was very welcoming. My wife enjoyed the corned beef special on gluten-free bread. She said it tasted like real deli corned beef. I got a large hunk of Reuben quiche (it was Quiche of the Day) and it was delicious! Large chunks of corned beef, cheesy, and a yummy crust. Definitely going back, so many items in the display case looked tantalizing. This place feels like a hidden gem.“

“I was excited and all set to support this local business. The ONLY reason they didn't get 5 stars is their prices. ie: smoothies small $9, oat and fruit bowl $14. I just wish it was more affordable because the food is fresh and yummy.“

“My croissant egg, cheese and turkey sausage sandwich was so good ! It was the perfect sandwich that I needed for breakfast. The juice was refreshing as well. Good service, it was nice & clean amd the atmosphere was great. Be sure to check them out for breakfast options 😊.“

“I am super excited about the one opening in Gainesville, VA. The owners are absolutely wonderful and kind people. I know this will be a GREAT location!!“

“The best crepes in the Philadelphia area, as far as I can tell. Great coffee and ice cream, too. Tucked away in Elkins Park, but very much worth discovering.“

“When I look for coffee, I make sure it is a good roaster. Ultimo Coffee are exceptional roasters in Philadelphia. I have been visiting them for 5 years now. They mostly sell washed process coffees which I prefer over naturals or anaerobic etc. Their Pour Over coffees are really good, espresso is excellent.“

“Wonderful experience and so personalized“

“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.“

“Everyrthing I have tried thus far has satisfied: shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles, seafood omelet.“

“Very fine always go there!!“

“A really awesome location right on the trails for coffee and snacks, bike repair, bike sales and demo fleet of gravel bikes to rent. Can’t say enough about the friendliness and attention to detail of Paul Daniels the owner. Great place to start and end your Wissahickon adventures be it on foot or by bike. 😊“

“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.“

“The food was SUPERB! Very tasty and LARGE portions! Staff were polite and friendly. We did not feel rushed when ordering our food and with asking questions about ingredients in a few food items/choices. Ambiance: So this was my first time here. Very delicious food and pleasant staff, however I was shocked to see the TINY tables for eating. I have never seen tables so tiny, in a cafe/eatery setting, ever in my life...for eating! I was afraid the food wouldn't all fit on the table and that we would have to hold a plate in our hands. The seating is VERY tight, like a packed sardine tight, like I wanted to leave and go elsewhere with roomier seating tight, but my man wanted to treat me to delicious food, so I chalked it up and said nothing. Otherwise food and staff were awesome, and you get what you pay for; i.e. their portions are LARGE and very yummy. I rated them 3 stars, although I really wanted to give them 2, solely for the seating setup. Otherwise, I rate them 5, for their food and service.“

“The Ladies Group in our community hosted a Tea Party today and I ordered the scones and danish from Alice’s. First order from there for me! I can’t tell you how much the women loved everything. And Lizzie and Dennis were so great to work with. I highly recommend them.“

“Love their scones and mochas! Great down to earth food and the staff are very caring. Never had a bad experience here. I go there any chance I have time off to visit. Thank you so much for providing this opportunity to the staffers and to us the patrons!

Kid-friendliness: Son sat at the counter and staff were very attentive!“

“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.“

“We love their custard waffles. Their staff is wonderful and they have a great variety of juice drinks along with their teas.“

“Awesome place to eat dance drink and meet people.“
