Come here at any time of day, and you will be served a fantastic drink. My favorite espresso in Philly, and a great beer/wine list. It's a must if you're on South Broad.

Excellent coffee and small but awesome selection of pastries. Unique, funky, cool vibe with a great selection of jazz music playing and LPs on sale up front. It's dark inside, dimly lit. After 4pm they have a cool happy hour and sell wine in the evenings, and have a live music room in the back.
Great coffee, snacks, vibes, friendly service.

Overpriced wine ($20 a glass all-in), overpriced show tickets ($40 all-in), OK vibe...not sure who can afford this place except scene-y hipsters who dress poorer than they are...?

Popped in for a midday drink on a Sunday and this place, while super unassuming, is pretty cool. It's an intimate space where some people are doing work on laptops. There is bar seating with couches along the sides. Behind the bar is an impressive collection of records that are in rotating use. The shop area in the front has some vinyls for sale by artists I truly had never heard of and some interesting books matching the vibe.

We were super pleased that they offered a happy hour on a Sunday, with $6 off wine carafes. We got their tap house red wine for ~18 and it was about 4 glasses, which was a great price. Was it the best wine? No, but can't beat the price. And it was worth it for the environment. They offer shows/events so I would consider coming back for one of these.

I came to Solar Myth a few Fridays ago with a colleague to get some work done. The vibe was much warmer than a cold, sterile, dusty office. Actually, the vibe was so warm that it warmed up my fingers and I typed much faster than usual. My colleague and I sat in the back so we could chat without disturbing the other folks who were also there getting work done. We had an incredibly productive co-working meeting and caught up on a lot of important stuff. The service was excellent. I felt welcomed and at home in this space. I'll be returning to Solar Myth next time I need to get work done but don't feel like working in a stale, sterile office. Solar Myth is a great option for when you get bored of WFH. Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery to really get the creative juices flowing. Bring a coworker with you so you can brag about it on your Slack status.

Love the ambiance & great service. Coffee is decent but they don’t offer almond milk which is pretty common.

Great place to grab wine! Their Merlot on tap is chilled and delicious. Vibes are good and music is even better from the record player.
