50 Best Coffee Shops near Glenside

“They get great coffee from a local roaster and the staff is friendly and the service is great. The Keswick has a real neighborhood vibe and surpasses the corporate chains.“

“This is our local spot to come during the farmer’s market on Saturdays. It is part of Glenside’s charm!“

“Great flavor selection, great team. Always there when I need that sugar rush. If you’re in the area (and even if you’re not) Dreams is always worth the trip“

“Peppermint Mocha Latte amazing! Not to mention the hash browns. Let's also feast the stomach on turkey sausage egg and cheese on the croissant!! Scrumptiously delicious!! Oh, those refreshers are also on that scrumptiously delicious list! Thank you!“

“First time there, excellent food.“

“In a beautiful building with a nice atmosphere. Great hot chocolate and delicious coffee.“

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!“

“The service was great and the women behind the counter were amazing! I will definitely come back when I am in the area again.“

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

“Yet another hidden gem in Philly. I came in for the first time today by chance and immediately felt so so so welcomed into the space. It is much smaller of a space than Madis Coffee Roasters (Twisted Grounds has only a few small tables to sit), but the staff is equally as kind, friendly, talkative, and enjoyable to be around. You can quickly tell that the team here has a great rapport with each other, and it makes the atmosphere comfortable and fun to be in. They have super cute merch and engaging conversations. I'm excited for this to be one of my regular haunts in Philly. The manager runs this place like a well-oiled machine.“

“Everything about this place is gorgeous! The flowers, decor and every corner was thoughtfully put together. Food is halal and amazing. Desserts are a must! Walked out with beautiful flowers 💐 I will be returning to try out the rest of the unique menu!“

“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.“

“oh this was my favourite place in philadelphia. fantastic location, great service and great food. excellent music too. if I lived in philly this would be my local. thanks everyone for a fabulous experience. ❤️“

“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!“

“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.“

“From one barista to another- incredible work 🩶. I was enamored by the inherent sweetness of their shots, very caramel-forward. Ended up going home with a bag of honey processed beans and a persistent hankering for another visit. My visit was brief because I had a schedule to stay on, but I could easily see myself spending multiple hours here. Community vibes come naturally to this place.“

“I have a subscription to their coffee roastery - I recieve a 5lb bag of Espresso Roast beans every 8 weeks to use in my at home espresso machine. Their beans have ruined all other coffee for myself and my wife - we can ONLY drink Backyard Beans coffee. It is the best coffee we have ever tasted. The worst part is - we live in Alabama so we can only ever order it for delivery!“

“wonderful staff, Colombes coffee great food.“

“An amazing place. Great way to find unique gifts“

“Excellent coffee, pastries and environment !“

“The chicken pot pie is awesome!! I've been stopping by the Lehigh Ave. location and the staff are always very nice & friendly!“

“The ambience is great the smell is intoxicating and the customer service is excellent!!!“

“Great crescents, great coffee“

“Love The Kettle Black! Amazing vegan croissants, bagels & other treats! Their cold brew is always on point! Super friendly and talented folks!“

“Had the Spring Fling coffee today, IT WAS INCREDIBLE! Never have I had coffee like this. It was robust but mild, with hints of lavender, thyme and pink peppercorns. Absolutely a must have for those that go regularly. I live in NJ so sadly I won’t be here often and I’m sad about that.“

“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!“

“The staff was great. The drinks and food was awesome! I loved it...“

“One of my favorite go to spots when I worked in Chestnut Hill a very long time ago! The vibe has not changed a decade later! It was great to come in with my highly energetic son, enjoy the great vibes and coffee! Times have changed but they haven't! I had different drink experiences on different days and they were accommodating every time. Thanks for being so welcoming, and inviting! Young messy ppl take PATIENCE“

“Spent the last few weeks trying coffee across the area based on IG profiles and word of mouth. This was my first stop. New owner is amazing. Greeted customers and spent time with them. Coffee was SO good. Ridic. What took me away was their breakfast sammie. Made with REAL eggs, their roll, so good and that sausage - wow. Will be back. Great intro to the area.“

“My husband and I went to Meadowlark Bakery and Cafe this morning after learning that they hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for those who needed a place to go. We try to support places that support those in the community and do good. We’ve been there before for coffee and pastries, which are amazing, but we never had any other food. We have been missing out! We both got a breakfast sandwich and they were amazing! My biscuit was light and buttery, our eggs were perfectly fried, and both sandwiches had generous amounts of breakfast meat and came with tots. They had a wonderful Santa for the kids and a nice warm enclosed area for eating. Meadowlark, thank you for being a part of our community and helping those in need. It does not go unnoticed and we will absolutely be back to support you, your business, delicious food, and the good you are doing!“

“My favorite by far is their Sweet and Spicy Pizza. So unique. Staff and owner go out of their way to ensure a delicious and enjoyable experience. Hatboro is very lucky to have this gem right in our own backyard.“

“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.“

“Nice place too grab coffee while my cycle got some service.“

“Wonderful place! Good coffee, food and gifts.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I’m a cortado snob and they always deliver perfection. Plus their croissants are the best of any coffee shop I’ve been to in this area, which I think is all of them. It’s strange to have to even make note of this, but especially when I’m in a coffee shop, I really prefer being able to talk to a real live person to place my order and not have to navigate a touchscreen. Chatting with the baristas is part of the enjoyment and reason for leaving your home. So another five stars for human interaction. 😅“

“Cute coffee shop on Ridge Ave! Great breakfast & lunch menu. Friendly staff 👍“

“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.“

“Delicious pizzas and salads. Friendly service. Nice atmosphere. The Gluten-Free Pizza options are so good! Love this place!“

“Great food! Beautiful plates! We will be back!“

“My favorite coffee house“

“Love all the beautiful plants and other gifts you can purchase here.. It’s a very cozy place.. Thank you for this hidden treasure“

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!“

“I love the Caesar Salad and wraps, the tea the coffee macchiato’s. Cozy and relaxing place to enjoy a sit in while you enjoy the menus offerings. I am considering going through the week and inviting my mom with me.“

“I LOVE this market. they even stayed open a few minutes late for my boyfriend and I after I called saying we weren’t going to arrive until 4:58 on a saturday. like, THANK YOU. we had a delicious easy dinner with tasty beets, dolmas, pasta, and gigantes. I love this place and the food is always fantastic and fresh and perfectly vinegary.“

“Just visited Uncle Bobbie's Coffee and Books and I'm highly upset that I live in VA and can't experience this place on a regular basis. I had a great time. the space is so warm and inviting. I love coffee and books and black spaces and I experienced all three. The staff was friendly' attentive, and helpful. My iced Chai and almond croissant were delicious. And I could have spent all day perusing the books and other merchandise. In the end I bought three books, three stickers, a bookmark, and a t-shirt. I'll definitely purchase more on the website. And I'll definitely visit again the next time I'm in Philly.“
