RIM Cafe, located in South Philadelphia, is a must-visit destination known for its exceptional coffee, hot chocolate, cannolis, and gelato. Owned by Rene, who passionately invests in the business, the cafe is famous for its in-house roasted coffee and European-inspired atmosphere. It is an ideal spot for dates, special occasions, or a fun time with friends. Customers frequently praise the coffee, especially noting that the Americano is not acidic and has chocolate notes, making it truly special. The menu is on the pricier side, but the unique flavors and welcoming ambiance make up for it. The owner's wife is often present, greeting customers with friendliness, contributing to the charming experience.
Recently, visitors have been impressed by the cafe's quirky and interesting decor, which is filled with pictures and memorabilia, creating an eclectic collection that adds to the atmosphere. The friendly staff, including a delightful older gentleman who enjoys singing along to Italian music while preparing drinks, makes everyone feel like family. Highlights include the Volcano Hot Chocolate, which many love, and the recommended Cubano Cappuccino, described as fabulous. The cafe also offers a 20% discount for veterans, enhancing the overall experience. RIM Cafe stands out as a mom-and-pop shop in a tourist destination, making it a unique spot to enjoy quality coffee and delightful treats.
