I really didn't like the coffee drinks I tried here. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte and it tasted terrible; super sweet, chemically syrup taste, and a lot of bitter and dry spices mixed in from a spice container I assume. The person I was with ordered an iced latte and I also tried it and the espresso was burnt or something as the flavor was not nice.

Ordered a Frappuccino (which is supposed to have coffee in it normally by the way), received my frappe and it had no coffee in it. the guy barista with the glasses had a nasty attitude when i asked him if there was coffee in it - “No, Frappes don’t have coffee in it…” okay so what you just gave me was a milkshake…. cool. The other times we have gotten frappuccino’s from here, it has had coffee in it…. When i asked if he could put coffee in it, he said (in a snarky tone) “well it wouldn’t taste very good…” awesome so im stuck with a birthday cake flavored milkshake… yeah i will not be returning here after that.

Comfortable spot with great coffee, pastries, and some hot sandwiches. Lots of power outlets for your laptop, and a good amount of seating.

Drinks/ food are made correct maybe 3/10 times. I keep trying to give faith to Cambridge because it’s close to my apartment. But it’s a waste of money for subpar at best service /drinks. Almost never see the same employee twice so probably high turn around with bad training to account for. Last straw was orders a $5 iced green tea with lavender syrup and getting cold water with a tea bag in it. So essentially a $5 lavender syrup water. Save your money. Go somewhere else
Expensive for the area but high quality. They have a bunch of great bakery items.

Cambridge Street Coffee House is one of the most underrated coffee spots in Philadelphia. Hands down some of the best coffee and baked goods I've ever had. The owner, Carol, is also so down to earth; she really takes the time to get to know her regulars. I just wish they were in a larger location; it can fill up pretty quickly on both the weekends and weekdays!

Excellent breakfast sandwiches and solid coffee. My only complaint is that 1 shot of espresso for a 24oz latte is basically charging for slightly coffee flavored milk. And if you add more espresso it becomes the most expensive latte in the neighborhood

You’re in the heart of north Philly and you have no other alternatives for pork?

Stopped in to do some work and grab a quick bite to eat. Small coffee shop, but decent sized tables for laptops and to spread out. It was clean and service was friendly.
I got the BLT with avocado on sourdough. It had fresh ingredients and a decent amount of bacon. I wish it had some type of aioli or sauce, it needed an extra kick of flavor. I also got the oreo cookie and it was also good but maybe a little overdone for my liking. I like a softer cookie. The big oreo chunks were unique though!
I would consider coming back to work in the future and try other food!

I ordered a bagel with jelly and butter, but they put jelly on one side and butter on the other, instead of spreading both on each side which was a bit odd. My matcha was whisked with a silver fork instead of a proper whisk, and the powder used was quite bitter. I would appreciate a refund for this order.

This is the coffee house to visit warm, welcoming, and instantly feels like home the moment you walk through the door. The staff greet you with such kindness, it’s like being welcomed into a cozy kitchen for a home-cooked meal and a fresh pot of coffee. It’s truly a special place, and I couldn’t imagine a better spot to start my morning with coffee and breakfast.
Coffee is decent enough. Haven't tried their food. Nice staff. Chill atmosphere.
No better way to get a coffee, or in my case the BEST toasted marshmallow salted caramel Latte with whip cream and the brightest welcoming smile from staff. There’s always new breakfast items on the menu, so breakfast never gets boring.
Thanks for making my 1st cup or 5th cup of coffee/latte of the day worth every sip.
