Nook Bakery & Coffee Bar

Highly recommend! The name is fitting, it’s really a special place tucked off on the side. Walking in, you immediately become aware that they take coffee very seriously. From the smell, to the coffee roasters, to the perfectly pairing bakery treats- you gotta check this place out. Way better than the Starbucks next door- forget that place.

3 visits while in Philadelphia for a few days. Multiple home-baked breakfast options but every day I had the tasty and healthy Omega-3 muffin - blueberries, chia seeds and other good bits.
As a tea drinker I appreciate the small, well-chosen options.
It's truly a nook, run by the married couple owners. They know all their regulars by name and preferred beverage.
Bring your own mug if you want to save paper.

Such sweet staff and good coffee and pastries! Their dirty chai is so so good. It’s a little cluttered from shipments that are viable in the back, but still a quaint little shop.

What a wonderful coffee and bakery shop. I had the honor of taking a one on one class with Michael, the co-owner, last night. The guy is amazing. Talk about someone that knows a lot about roasting coffee beans, and, it turns out, science in general. Yes, he does know stuff. He brought out the long buried nerd in me. We roasted one of the beans with 3 different roasts…very bold, kind of bold and medium bold. After 1 double shot of each, I can say without reservations, they were really good and I was wired.

The best coffee I've had in the city. Huge variety of beans, unpretentious, and great prices. Plus the owners are super friendly and the pastries are great!

Delicious coffee. Pasties looked delicious (didn't get any this time) The woman I spoke with was so sweet and cheery. Lovely place :)

So happy to see that this coffee shop is open during the COVID Pandemic! They have the menu on their window and all the baked goodies displayed so you can pick and choose. First time having their coffee and was absolutely delicious, as was the blueberry crumble bar. You can smell them roast the coffee from outside, and it smells like heaven itself. I got fresh roasted coffee and can not wait to use them. Hope to be a regular customer here. Really appreciate their business in these unprecedented times. Great to see the community alive. We will get through this, and caffeine definitely helps along the way 😁👌🏻. Make sure you call ahead to order and for pickup!

Small Cafe, with good drinks. me and my fiance both had a matcha latte. My fiance's was bitter but that was more the fault of us than the baristas. great stuff! wish there were more seating options but they're limited by the space

Great coffee but I wish they were a little more polite while speaking. Not everyone understands the nuances of coffee but if they’re trying to ask a question, you can be nice.

Really cute, quaint coffee shop offering both chocolates and coffee.

Atmosphere: The couches made the area felt very cozy and friendly, and they offer desks and electrical outlets too for anyone who needs to do work. When I came in the afternoon, the shop was relatively quiet, which is great for getting work done. With the additional comfy seating they offer, it's a really nice place to catch up with friends as well!

Food: Personally, I thought the latte I got was average and tasted a bit diluted, so I probably wouldn't go back for their drinks. The coffee did come out very quickly, though. Also, they did have a really cute assortment of all their chocolates, including hand-made truffles, which I would love to try next time! The assortment of pastries included several gluten-free options (predominantly fudge) that looked delicious, and very affordable ($1-2).

Overall: , mostly for the atmosphere and variety of pastry options they offered! I think there are better places in the city for coffee, but I'd come back to try their desserts.
