Commonwealth Coffeehouse

Visited for the first time today. atmosphere was so nice on a beautiful day, open space and there were old friends meeting for coffee/students doing work. Nice environment! Owner was super friendly and explained some of their speciality drinks coming up for summer as well as how to order ahead if you’re in a rush. Iced coffee/muffin were very enjoyable! My friend said the iced tea was very good too if you’re not big on coffee.

I’m excited to try their breakfast sandwiches, will definitely be back.

Clean, hip, quality modern coffee shop in an ideal location in Scranton right next to Steamtown. Recommend checking out for visitors. It was not too busy at 130pm, and the sandwiches, lattes, and iced coffee were all good.

I love this place. Clean. The owners are amazing and staff is helpful. Great variety of coffee drinks. Tom one of the owners is extremely knowledgeable about coffee and creates art with his creative drinks for any coffee lover. Quality beans are used. His wife is extremely sweet and a great business partner organizing events.

Extremely friendly and knowledgeable service! It is a very spacious coffee house that is well lit, but still gives a happy cozy feeling. The coffee and espresso are both great. I can't recommend the arugula breakfast sandwich enough! We're just visiting but if we lived here this would be a great place to come and work, or study if you're a college student!

Great service. Friendly. Nice atmosphere. Good place to socialize, work or study.

Love going to Commonwealth Coffee. The people are friendly and go out of their way to please. Love the atmosphere and surroundings.

I took one star away because they did not have a physical menu for me to stare at. But the barista was helpful and they had paper menus at the counter I was able to look at. It was a peaceful atmosphere and an overall beautiful space that is well designed. It is a great space to get work done. The cappuccino was a good strong coffee taste which I enjoy.

Nice atmosphere, coffee was disappointing not very flavorful. Bakery items were fair. But the biggest turn off was watching the female kitchen worker walk to another room and return clutching numerous sandwich rolls in her arms pressed against her shirt. Apparently no consideration for food safety procedures. Won't be going back 👎👎

Drinks were bad and not as advertised. The smores latte was pictured on Facebook with whip cream, cocoa powder and an abundance of chocolate syrup. I received a smores latte that was identical in taste and appearance to my husband's plain iced coffee which was in fact watered down and barely drinkable. The space had potential but had no AC on and chairs designed to make sitting uncomfortable which is counter productive to the attempt at ambience. Nice try Scranton but we know we can't have anything truly nice here.

Made an unplanned stop on my recent trip home to Scranton. Excellent food and coffee in a warm atmosphere. The staff were really friendly and attentive. PLEASE go here instead of the Starbucks across the street - it's infinitely better.
