“First Watch is a chain; thus, their approach is the same: I personally ate breakfast in one in Greenville, Delaware.A very healthy breakfast:1. Hot oatmeal--seems to be new to the menu. lots of generously-sized raw fruit mixed throughout. Although some milk and raw sugar were supplied, the sweetner was not really needed.2. A healthy, cold, vegetable drink of kale was tasty, but with way too much ice--giving me, of course, less to drink.3. A delightfully-tasty grilled blueberry muffin was part of the mix.4. I was told I HAD to order FOUR pieces of bacon (I wanted two) . I declined to order it. Turns out they aceded to my request.5. My moderate breakfast came to $21.28 with a 20% tip--a little steep to me, but still very enjoyable!“
“The reason for my 5* rating is the people who work here, specifically the weekday morning crew. They are some of the friendliest, most patient people I've ever encountered. You can see that they enjoy working with the customers and each other and that creates a great atmosphere.“
“Food... Amazing!! Service... Fantastic!! Atmosphere... Cozy!!I highly recommend this restaurant. I enjoy the delicious food (especially the Salmon Freekah Salad and Pistachio Sticky Bun) and the Brown Butter Artichoke Borekas are everything!!! After a year of coming here, I've tried nearly everything on the menu ? Owner, Chef Mike Solomonov is incredibly generous!!!“
“Oh man! I didn’t know I needed this place in my life but here we are! The Pastéis De Nata was perfect, the iced chai was incredible, and the Antonio breakfast sandwich was everything you’d want from a sandwich. Nothing was left on the plate!“
“Best brunch - unique and well executed dishes - we found in the city over the last 2 years. Super loud inside, but the food is worth the sacrifice of not hearing your crew. My parents who are hard of hearing had a difficult time hearing/orderingDietary restrictions: There are several dairy free options“
“Took me bit to review this Glorious spot. I first read about in in the Italian-American Gazette (I’m Irish). A Paisan friend at a S Philly Espresso joint which I thought had the best Cappuccino in the city that Grand Caffe L’Aquilla was the best. After Holy Thursday at St Patrick’s I went there and I have to concur. And the best Barista , MattFriday my friend and I who was with me Thursday went on Good Friday and had Dinner. We both had Grilled Octopus. Que Cosa Bella! Tasted delicious like straight from the Sea. Ridiculously inexpensive. The waiters Boro and Luigi couldn’t be more accommodating + Funny and friendly. HIGHLY Recommend“
“Interesting use of outdoor lawn chairs for furniture (not sure how this works in wintertime).Plus, there is a good selection of non-coffee drinks and beverage accessories.And... a cortado served in a large GLASS tumbler! Delicious and classy!“
“Persimmon is the loveliest coffee shop in Fishtown. Everything I have tried here is standout. The service is exceptional and the quality is unmatched. I typically enjoy a drip coffee but their seasonal lattes are SO thoughtful and delicious. So much care and attention to detail goes into this place and it shows :)“
“Came here today for a date with my wife. Everything was fantastic. The place is clean and bright. The prices are fair. The staff was kind and professional. Really gave us a great authentic Colombian experience. I highly recommend coming here!“
“I come here everyday for coffee and a breakfast sandwich. I truly enjoy this environment, the food and the service. Glad they’re in the communityParking: Parking is readily availableKid-friendliness: Kid friendly spaceWheelchair accessibility: Building is wheelchair friendly“
“Such a great spot, very welcoming and the owner is such a good guy the staff was also very friendly I enjoyed there strawberry banana pancakes with Nutella and it was phenomenal!! Definitely recommend checking this spot out just in the heart of south philly!!“
“LOVED IT HERE! Truly authentic Italian cooking, with authentic ingredients to purchase. The staff was so friendly and accomodating on their menu. We had to make a slight change in order for a vegetarian, and they had no issues. We tried their breakfast sandwiches & lunch sandwiches, and each bite was jam packed with substance & flavor (I mean, just look at the layers in my photo.) Fresh ingredients, and an overall quaint/bright spot. This would be an awesome place to post up and get some work done, do some people watching, and enjoy delicious food. Not to mention, their baked goods looked out of this world. We wanted to get so much, but I landed on their passion fruit donut, partly because it was the last one left (so I figured something must be good!) And let me tell you, their dough is different. The donut was dense & fluffy at the same time, and their passion fruit flavor was y-u-m-m-y. I can't wait to go back to try more sandwiches and get some grocery shopping done!“

“Incredible service! They're super accommodating with my dairy allergy and made an incredible vegan latte. My boyfriend got the croissant and egg sandwich and said it was perfectly crispy and the eggs and sausage were fresh. Highly recommend!“
“A hidden jewel for good coffee nestled in Old Rittenhouse Town, Wissahickon Park. (A Beautiful area to hike or mountain bike (two separate trails) or walk your dog ). It is a coffee shop and bike shop. The surprise was the quality and freshness of the coffee. My Americano was delicious. The beans were freshly ground, and the cup was Full of flavor. The young gentleman that served me (and my dog!) was very friendly and welcoming. There are a couple of picnic tables outside to sit and enjoy your coffee and the beautiful historic Rittenhouse town.“
“Not only are the single serving treats just adorable (I mean a sleeping teddy bear), they are VERY tasty. The cakes are equally delicious, my experience is that they always have a couple of smaller cakes on hand which has saved me in a pinch several times. The team is lovely, friendly and kind. Highly, highly recommend and will continue to be a customer for a long time“
“If you ever get a chance to stop by The Brickhaus food is great and the service. Clean environment and the French toast is off the chain. And folks prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get I had breakfast for two days with my meal. Kudos to John and his wife the owners of The Brickhaus.“
“OMG, I just discovered this little spot tucked away in an office block. Absolutely the freshest food. I had a smoothie, amazing veggie panini and the soup of the day which was chicken noodle. The ladies are lovely and service is top notch. All good and will be back when the opportunity “
“I saw this place on social media so wanted to check it out. You have an amazing idea here. I thought the Z thing was only for the menu but they have their employees substituting Z’s for everything. It’s funny, it’s an experience. Great customer service IMO.Y’all need to update your address or business page on google maps, this location shows one place. I saw another location on your website, this review is for the truck at 3400 Fox St. I’m not even sure what this business page address is for. Maybe this is an old location?Onto the chicken cheesesteak. I got one with fried chicken tenders inside, lettuce, and I think they put some kind of hot sauce as well. The bread this comes on is incredible. If you want anything HEALTHY, DO NOT come here, I’m reading that it’s deep fried bread. Whatever they do to it, I could’ve ate it alone. The fried chicken inside is seasoned well. It’s kinda too much and falls apart as a result but who cares, eat some first with a fork then eat the rest. I got fries here but they were just okay. I want to come back and try something else.“
“Just moved to the neighborhood. We moved here because we wanted to be able to walk to places like Coffee Cream & Dreams, and I’m delighted that everything about it is so good. Big fan of the cold brew, donuts, and croissants. The service is fast and friendly too. We’ll be back often.“
“I’ve gone in twice for birthday cakes. I’m horribly last-minute, but luckily they always have already-made birthday cakes for sale which are DELICIOUS. They’re super flavorful without being too much, and they’re beautiful to look at. Plus they can write a message on the cake very quickly. I’m a fan!“
“I came here for the first time after an otherwise hectic morning and had such a delightful experience. The coffee and quinoa bowl were delicious and I am obsessed with their HUSKEE drinkware, which is made from recycled coffee husks. Everything about this cafe—from the general vibe to the customer service to the art—makes me want to return, and I look forward to my next visit :).“
“Food was fresh, delicious, and fairly priced. Beware of the pickled jalapeños if you are sensitive to spicy food.Both their beef gyro and falafel were the best I’ve ever had. Please keep in mind that I don’t even like meat and I’ve been struggling with anorexia for decades. So it’s very difficult for me to eat anything unless it’s super fresh and extraordinarily tasty. This place is a true gem and treasure.Service was outstanding, The owner-host made us feel immediately welcomed and at ease. She let us customize our order and was very prompt with our food. She was very knowledgeable about the ingredients they use, as well.The seating area is small, but that is to be expected in this area.Overall, this was by far our favorite restaurant to visit in the Philly area.Vegetarian options: they have falafel, grape leaves, hummus, baba ghanoush, salads, you name it! they offer endless customization options if you’d like, as well.Dietary restrictions: they serve halal, and they are knowledgeable about the ingredients they use.“
“A pastry shop, a beacon of delight,Where morning treats turn dawn into bright.Two souls, prompt and kind,In every task aligned,Make breakfast fare a memorable sight.Croissants cradle eggs and prosciutto alike,A harmony of flavors that make us psyche.Coffee rich, price fair,In this haven rare,Perfection this place does strike.“
“Gather your Canada Goose and 3 carat diamond ring, because to enter this rarified coffee-lunch-shop air, you’ll need something to fit in. This place is a tremendous find, clearly with a chef from city-level fine dining. The chicken salad sandwich is fresh with an incredible array of fresh herbs in the mix and crunchy yet soft sandwich bread. You’ll surely not go wrong with a grain salad topped with chicken - super high quality meat - the difference is clear. I was also impressed by my matcha latte - not as much by the chocolate chip cookie. The grapefruit soda was also distinct with a hint of thyme and a perfect amount of sweet and bubble. I can hardly wait to return and enjoy the very best again.“
“Giving 5 stars because Dotty's is excellent at what they do... Even if many of the flavors are over the top and I don't actually like them. LoLI'm really loving the savory doughnuts though! I didn't think that they would be as good as they have been. :-)“
“Delightful visit to this bakery! The mocha cake was heavenly—moist, rich in flavor, and with the perfect balance of coffee and chocolate. Paired with their freshly brewed coffee, it was an absolute treat. Cozy ambiance and friendly staff added to the wonderful experience. A must-try spot for anyone looking for quality cakes and coffee. Highly recommend!“
“They had several great vegan options and the owner was very kind and interested in us having a good experience. The atmosphere is a little cramped but not claustrophobic. I loved the random assortment of books and plants all over. We thoroughly enjoyed our stop here!Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options!“
“Beth picked this place out for us to dine at. She and her late husband would eat here when in was in swedeland. They liked it. Now I like it too. Great food, wait staff and the owner very gracious. We will be back! Military discount honored with military ID. A beautiful step back in time!“
“Clean minimal shop with quality matcha products and great ice cream.Strawberry and earl grey swirl are my current go to after dinner in Chinatown, however it is a seasonal flavor so get it while you can. I’ve also had the hojicha float which was refreshing and had a deep roasted nutty flavor with an edge of bitterness.What I enjoy most about this place is the typical Asian compliment when it comes to dessert “not so sweet”.Surreal is quite trendy but I find myself becoming quickly tired of it due to amount, all the toppings, and just the overall sweetness of the ice cream whereas matcha Maiko has the perfect amount of sweetness to remind you it’s a treat but not to the point where halfway through you feel like need water or tea to tone down the sugar“
“I’m biased because I’m ethiopian myself; however, everything about Alif is hella ethiopian, hella delicious. Love their missir (lentil) samosas and i could drink a whole liter of their buna (coffee)!I come here often and will keep coming here for the food and the vibes ??☕️“
“I know this is a coffee shop but don’t sleep on the toasties! Look at that cheese pull. Immaculate, much like the cleanliness level of the shop. The guys that work there are all real stand-up dudes. But definitely get a toastie.Kid-friendliness: Just don’t be obnoxious and bring your entire stroller inside. There’s not room for that. Don’t lie to yourself for the sake of convenience. Not gonna happen.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible but bathroom may be hard to get to when they’re busy due to space limitations“
“I just want them to make my coffee and design my apartment ? the cappuccino is the smoothest that I've had in Philly and the decorum is exquisite. The price is very affordable for a cappuccino and it's CONSISTENTLY well made, which is rare for a coffee shop. Not to mention they're open on Christmas when everyone else is closed and I appreciate that. My 5 year old and I go and sit here for hours and write and read and laugh. It's an amazing atmosphere.“
“I was walking down conshy and I saw this cafe I never been to and decided to went in. The atmosphere was super cute and the owner is very sweet and recommended the brown sugar boba for me. They had tons of pastry and I couldn’t help but to get a few and try their avocado toast! Everything was delicious and definitely coming back. “
“It’s a small quaint brunch place. I’ve never had anything but the spinach avocado toast. As long as they sell it I will only get this dish…. It’s that good. The toast has gotten smaller and obviously less avocado spread because of this. It was still satisfying. Plated beautifully.“
“I've been here a few times, but this time it was to celebrate a birthday. The staff was excellent and went above and beyond to make the birthday special. Everyone was so helpful & friendly plus the service was outstanding. Will be back many more “
“I’ve come here multiple times in the past decade and the chaat and lassi never fail to hit the spot. I got a fig lassi and a paneer chaat, both were so refreshing and the owner is so kind and hospitable. While this spot is not in a great location, the lassis and food make it worth it!!!“
“We finally stopped by in the afternoon one day to grab a quick late brunch, and really enjoyed our experience! The cafe was really bustling and busy, obviously a local favorite. I had the bananas fosters crepe and it was amazing, truly recommend ordering it and getting a side of home fries. My husband had a breakfast sandwich and he loved it! The service was fast and the owner even came by to check on everyone in the cafe, bringing a cannoli (which was amazing) for each table. So glad we stopped by finally!“
“Exceptional coffee shop if you like real coffee. Ordered a coffee just before they closed and they didn’t have anything on drip ready or fresh but had made plenty for a previous pour over and got some of their treehouse blend. Fantastic. I buy their beans online. Also highly recommend. They have some incredible tasting notes. Also very comfortable space at the time I went, not overcrowded or loud.“
“We've gone here for Friday lunches a few times in the past months and have ordered over half of the paninis they have available. Everything we've had from Torchwood is phenomenal, and I can't say that we've ever had a bad sandwich. It's quickly become one of our favorite places to pop out to during the week; plus, we love the music! The pineapple mango mint tea is a must try :)“
“A true marriage between a coffee shop and cocktail bar. They serve traditional café fare here, as well as signature flavored lattes, craft coffee drinks, and many cocktails with a coffee or tea twist. Every week, there's also a new special on the menu. They also allow guests to bring food, so you can cozy up with a drink and some bites and hang out late into the night (which we have done many times!)Vegetarian options: Almost all drinks are vegetarian, and vegan milk alternatives are available upon request.“
“Açaí bowls were delicious and super fresh. Definitely will be back to try more especially a smoothie. South Philly lacks a lot of healthier on the go options, I am so glad I discovered this place! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Inside is super clean, only thing I would suggest is to have music playing to give it more of a vibe.“
“What we ordered: Baker’s Basket, Continental Breakfast, French Omelet, and a hot latte.I’d recommend the Continental Breakfast if you’re indecisive or if you want a variety in one order, which was fun for me to try. I love the croissants here because they are not too flaky yet still buttery and fresh. However, the scone was too dry for my liking, and the toasted brioche was okay. It was a fun breakfast for us with friendly service.Be mindful of the parking as well, because you’ll need to parallel park and pay for the time you’re there. If you’re even a couple of minutes late, you may end up with a ticket, which was a painful experience for us.“
“We’ve tried all the Ethiopian food in this area and this is the one that keeps us coming back. The food is sooooo good. Service is a little slow but every time we’ve been there it’s only 1 guy working and he’s working hard. We don’t mind the wait at all, we usually bring some cards or something to keep us occupied ? the restaurant is very clean. its BYOB so bring your drink of choice! I really love this place. I hope you try it.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options. I eat meat but went with 2 vegetarians and we shared everything. Eating vegetarian here still is sooooo satisfying.Wheelchair accessibility: This place is not wheelchair accessible. There’s a small set of about 4 stairs you have to walk down to get into the building.“
“Creative, cozy, delicious. Yesterday I had the Thai PB&J, and if it’s available when you go, I highly recommend it. It wasn’t my first time in here. I’ve enjoyed the wonderful, cozy, 90s-coffee-shop-in-a-romcom vibe on several occasions. The service is friendly and relaxed. The coffee is delicious. But it was that sandwich yesterday that made me finally sit down and write this 5-star review. This place is a gem!“
“Given the number of various establishments at this location that have come and gone over the last few decades, the fact that Vibrant has now been here well over two years speaks for itself. The Rittenhouse Square neighborhood was relatively coffee-free for years, and thankfully several places have popped up recently. This is the best of the lot. Coffees and baked goods are consistently excellent. Baristas are usually pleasant. Unless money isn’t a concern for you, however, be advised that a regular plain coffee is around $4, and prices go up from there, so Vibrant is not the best place to frequent often. The space itself is pretty tiny, there’s no real room to sit inside, which leads to lines out the door every weekend morning and when there’s an event going on in the Square. There are some small tables outside the entrance on Locust Street. That’s it, so by necessity business is mostly takeout. Worth it for an occasional treat/splurge.“
“Ordered a tropikale smoothie and their breakfast banh mi sandwich. Great smoothie. The sandwich was excellent but it was too spicy (jalapeño slices and i think the sauce too?) for my low spice tolerance tongue ?, but that's a me problem. For the spice lovers you'll love it.“
“The food, service and ambiance of this restaurant were excellent! All went above and beyond expectations. Very authentic, delicious Italian food, with very attentive and friendly staff, working hard for their customers. Coming here for dinner was a wonderful way to end my visit to Philadelphia!“
“This morning, as I was on my way to work, I had a little bit of time to grab a cup of coffee before catching my train. I came across this quaint cafe and decided to check it out. I am so glad that I did. Not only did I get a cup of coffee but I also got an egg & cheese sandwich on a croissant. My breakfast was absolutely amazing. The croissant was buttery and fresh. The sandwich literally melted in my mouth and the coffee was the finishing touch! I told the workers that this was the best breakfast sandwich that I ever had! I will DEFINITELY be back and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND supporting this small business. Tell em that James sent you and YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!“
“At this point, Sabrina’s is a MUST on our restaurant rotation. We haven’t had anything on the menu that wasn’t great. I’m not a chef, but everything seems to have a unique twist, or some really high quality ingredients that sets it over the top. This time (pictured) we had the Wild Mushroom Toast, the Philly Omelette, and the Huevos Rancheros. All amazing, and the portions are generous.I would also recommend the chicken & waffle (crispy perfection) and the breakfast tacos (best we’ve found since we left Texas. Don’t forget to ask for the sriracha!)The whole place seems to run like a well oiled machine, the staff are always nice and friendly, and the manager has helped us when we needed it.If you haven’t been before, it’s not the world’s biggest space, so expect some of the tables to be slightly close quarters. But definitely don’t let that deter you!“
