50 Best Cafes near Jenkintown

“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.“

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

“The food is fine, the service is even fine just don't expect to receive your order on-time if you order ahead. I typically order before heading into work and it's never ready at the specified time. I'm usually waiting an additional 10-15 minutes longer. My order said it would be ready around 6:39, i received a message that my order was behind at 6:45. I didn't get my food until 6:53. Overall, the staff are friendly but just make sure to order week ahead of time“

“First time I'm here. My daughter brought me. She said that the coffee was excellent so I tried a cappuccino and it was good and she had a cold brew. We didn't buy nothing to eat but what I saw seemed quite nice. I would really highly recommend“

“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!“

“I’m a HUGE fan of the Meadowlark. Food is creative and delicious, pastries are out of this world, mocha is absolutely top tier. I’ve never been disappointed. The environment is cozy, warm and welcoming and everyone is always so nice.Got my kiddo and. His friend a burger for lunch today and they RAVED about them (and the ability to add or remove things to make them kid friendly is fantastic!). His friend said it’s the best burger he’s ever had! Keep doing what you do! You are just what we needed in this area!“

“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.“

“This place defies words. The cool factor is on 11. It's kid friendly, chill but somehow also a community hub. The drinks are peerless, The art is existential Philly. The merch is every kind of cool. They play awesome movies. And the pastry is legit. Get the hence. If you're reading this and you're not already there, you made a mistake. Go!“

“Although it does not look extraordinery from outside, even it is not visible, it is worth to jump in and grab something to eat. Good prices, very friendly staff. Spring rolls were delicious, as well as avocado sandwich. Crispy chicken wrap is also very good. Highly eecommend it“

“Had breakfast this morning for the 1st time, it was delicious! Rebecca was our waitress and she was terrific! We definitely found our new place from now on!“

“This coffee shop has completely stolen my heart! Every time I walk in, I'm greeted with the kindest smiles from the baristas — you can genuinely feel how much they care about creating a welcoming space. It's the kind of place that just makes your whole day better the second you step inside!

Now let’s talk about the pandan latte. I’m honestly obsessed. It's the perfect blend of cozy, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness with that beautiful, unique flavor that you can't find anywhere else. I dream about this latte — it's that good! If you’ve never tried pandan before, trust me, this is the place to fall in love with it.

I can't recommend this coffee shop enough. Between the incredible drinks and the truly wonderful team behind the counter, it’s easily one of my favorite spots in Fishtown. Can't wait for my next visit!“

“My wife and I have long been fans of the Baby’s team, before the storefront was up and running when they were hosting pop-up events during the Tita Emmie’s days. We appreciate the growing representation of Filipino food and culture in Philadelphia, and their investment in the quality of their products. From casual take-out food to private events, they have not disappointed. Looking forward to continue following your journey from afar!

PS - the Sisig cheesesteak was 👌🏼, might compete with some of the best in the city 👀“

so happy to have something like this open in my neighborhood!!! west philly deserves more places like this outside of clark park. genuinely on a quest to try everything on their food menu. so far everything has hit and i don't doubt the rest will too.“

“Great coffee in a really cool setting! All kinds of original artwork and friendly staff (that was Jeff today)!“

“I love Adelie Coffee House. The coffee is simply delicious! It's rich, smooth, aromatic, soothing - like a warm blanket fresh out of the dryer. I've only tried the cheese danish. It was very good. The baristas are great - all of them. The coffee house itself is bare bones, yet clean and cozy. You have the option to sit outside if you like. I'm so glad this little gem is right down the street from my house.💜“

“Love the vibe. The employees were incredibly helpful and friendly. Food and drinks were excellent. FREE mimosas or bloodies with any food purchase. 10/10 will return next time I'm in town.“

“As a local to Philly, I explore many coffee shops and community spaces in the area, but none have matched the warmth, uniqueness, and welcoming environment of Sunday Girl.

From the moment you approach, there's a sense of openness, and sometimes quite literally, with the door wide open on nice days. Inside, that same feeling continues. The staff greets you warmly, making a point to do so by name, and creates a sense of familiarity and connection with everyone that walks in. Each team member brings their own personality to the space, and you can feel how much they care, and not just about the service, but about building real community. Becca, the owner, clearly pours love and passion into Sunday Girl. Her commitment to collaboration, inclusivity, and people-first values is reflected in every corner of the space. Her passion is definitely shared and spread.

Though I’m not a big coffee drinker, I always find something on their diverse menu. Their iced chai latte is my go-to, which is delicious, consistent, and clearly made with high-quality and contribute to buying locally sourced ingredients. I’ve also tried a few pastries and the avocado toast, and everything has been fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and satisfying. There is much more on the menu that I plan to try in the future.

Sunday Girl is more than a coffee bar... it’s a vibrant community hub. They’re dog-friendly, queer-friendly, woman-led, and actively partner with local organizations and clubs. I’m excited to spend more time here and see how this already incredible space continues to grow and evolve and contribute to the good that comes from Philly.“

“American Grammar is my favorite cafe in Philly! Every drink I get is perfect and somehow always has the perfect espresso pull. The energy and beauty of the space (as well as amazing collection of books) make it such a pleasant place to go! Special shout out to Terrence who always makes you feel warm with his amazing energy and kindness. Grateful to have a place like American Grammar in the neighborhood.“

“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 walked in to get a coffee and ended up staying for about a half hour 45 minutes. Had lunch and ordered stuff to go. Great staff, great coffee. ☕️“

“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.“

“I came in at the end of a run and had a tough time choosing- everything looked super fresh and delicious. It’s rare to find homestyle, healthy food, and Greek!

I had a bowl with chicken, potatoes, veg, whipped feta, and took a pastry and frappe to go.

The people were super nice, and indoor and outdoor dining space bright and clean.

I will 100% be back!“

“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!“

“I love this place. There are super accommodating. I have a shellfish allergy and they always are good at explaining to me. What is in the food and with the foods made with with no problem and everybody is really kind one of my favorite Vietnamese places. 😊“

“Torch Wood, although it may not be your average eat in type of sandwich & pannini restaurant, it's definitely the place to order online or do a quick drive by pick up. Off the corner of north 3rd & Vine St., Torch Wood friendly customer service, attention to details and delicious menu will keep you coming back for more each and every day. Stop for one of their breakfast sandwiches or lunch salads and grab a latte while you at it, you will enjoy the trip! Highly recommended, Javier from Orlando, FL.“

“The Falafels are hand made daily and the service is excellent. They’ll even run the order to you if time permits and if you are in a rush“

“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“

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

“The decor makes you feel at home. Everything from the coffee to the pastries was delicious. Definitely going back.“

“omg i loved everything about this place the food was great the only thing was the waiter asked if i wanted powered sugar for my French toast i said yes got my french toast no powder sugar and there’s no coffee refills 😩😂 that’s my only complaint but other then that the coffee was good i would definitely visit here again soon the grits was awesome Thank you“

“La Colombe’s flagship location is one of the gems of the neighborhood here in Fishtown-NoLibs. The space itself has that perfect balance of buzzing energy and relaxed atmosphere . whether you’re grabbing a quick draft latte to go or sitting down to catch up with a friend, it always feels welcoming.
The coffee is consistently excellent (their draft latte is still unmatched), and the pastries and food options are a cut above your typical café. Service is friendly and efficient even when it’s packed, which says a lot given how busy this spot can get.
What I love most is that it feels like a true community hub, locals, professionals, students, everyone passing through. It’s a reminder of why La Colombe has become such a Philly institution.
Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.“

“Fantastic teas selection. The folk that work are super nice, and the atmosphere is so relaxing.“

“It's a great place to go and relax with a shisha. The best shisha I have ever smoked, the atmosphere is nice ((very calm music)), the place helps you study or complete some transactions on the computer, without disturbance from customers, and the place was clean and well ventilated. The bathroom was also clean. The service was excellent with brother Adel. He was very nice. The tobacco was fresh and the charcoal was clean, with no smell or taste.“

“Always a pleasure stopping by Richies. Friendly, fast service. Great food and the coffee is always hot and fresh! On a hot day grab their ice coffee. You will not be disappointed!“

“I keep finding myself back here—and not just because it’s close to campus. The space is beautiful: warm wood, cute displays, and plenty of elegant charm that make it an easy spot to study or catch up with friends. I’m especially drawn to the pastry case; the desserts are adorable and genuinely tasty, and even though prices run on the higher side, the overall experience feels worth it to me. If I have one wish, it’s for the drinks to rise to the level of the pastries. They look great, but the flavors can be a bit understated. Still, for ambiance and desserts, this place is an easy pick, and it’s why I’ve been back several times.“

“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!“

“This is a hidden gen... wonderful shashuska as well as Mediterranean plate.“

“The best coffee shop in the area! Highly recommend this place!“

“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.“

“Thank you to everyone at Cosmic Cafe for great food at fair prices and ALWAYS a warm welcome. A special thank you to Adam for going out of his way to greet my son today.“
