Good pastries and food and great location however always a longer than usual wait in like even for something simple like an iced coffee because staff is busy.. there have been times I have had to wait 10+ minutes for a coffee .. still recommend as a good place especially if you are waiting for the train just plan on a wait.

Great spot for variable baked goods with some options for a variety of dietary restrictions. The location is adorable as the cafe is attached to the Chestnut Hill West train station with lots of outdoor seating in the yard.

First and only time going. I was being looked at as if I was out of place and the passive aggressive cashier didn’t make out any better. I’ll stick to the other location, it feels welcoming there opposed to this location

I love High Point as a whole, but this is definitely my favorite location. Th scenery is beautiful and the staff is amazing. The drinks are fantastic as well!

Once I've worked somewhere, I typically never want to go after leaving. It kinda ruins the environment for personal time, because I feel like I'm on the clock OR I learned something that made me uncomfortable dining there. This is a rare exception because the product and environment are just so dang good. (Both locations) It feels like what I imagined neighborhoods should embody when I was a kid. A feeling of connection. Reliable comfort. They clearly appreciate and work to be connected with and in support of their community. They make their syrups in-house and their pastries are fresh. Whenever I need a pick-me-up, I go there. (Which I have to limit because I want to buy out the pastry case every time.) The rotation of local artists on the walls! I could go on and on. Love this place.

Excellent coffee, baked goods and crêpes. Cozy atmosphere. And a wonderful selection of fair trade coffee beans for sale. Accommodating to children. Also, there is a parking lot for dogs and cars.

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

What a real gem. High point cafe alone is a big convincer to move to the area. This location is situated at Richard Allen train station in the old ticket office. Historic and such an aesthetic. Now the food and drinks offered definitely holds value. All their food other than crepes are made at their local commissary servicing their two locations. All quality items worth getting. Quiches on the weekends some of the best in the area. The staff are knowledgeable, warm, and inviting. I am always looking forward to absorbing their good energy that vibrates through the whole shop. 10/10 recommend for a quick treat or simple breakfast-lunch bite.
Vegetarian options: Veggie quiche, veggie crepes
Kid-friendliness: Kids love playing on the grass utilizing the toddler slide and boulders. The cafe is situated at the train station allowing kids to feel like they are on a special trip.

This place is a neighborhood gem. Open every morning at 7 offering delicious beverages, freshly baked pastries and warm hospitality. I love that their chai is home made -- not from a mix.
