Gryphon Cafe

Favorite place to stop in West Chester. I will go out of my way to stop here. Coffee is amazing. Service is wonderful. I love it here.

The coffee here is a dark, bitter roast. If Starbucks is your thing, you’ll like it. I was looking for something fruity and acidic. No luck.

The avocado toast was good—salt, citrus, urfa biber. Good flavor. Good whole grain bread. Could have been toasted a bit more.

Nice atmosphere. The place was bustling on Sunday morning, and seats at the front window looked like a nice place to linger.

This is an awesome cafe with great coffee and food. They are also Celiac friendly (e.g., GF bread and menu items, cleaning the grill). With free wifi, it's also a great place to study or work for a few hours.

Great oat milk cappuccino. They use great beans and a nice 2 group La Marzocco

Adorable place with delicious coffee. You don’t need much else. Love their homemade flavorings - the chai steamer with a shot of espresso is the way to go.

Second time visiting and still a great option in West Chester for breakfast and a good cup of coffee!

Not sure what that negative review is about - I find this place to be a great location to get work done:) the girls that work here have been nothing but helpful, kind, friendly and professional! A rare trait amongst many young workers today:)

Absolutely phenomenal coffee shop. I have been deeply grieved that West Chester did not have a good coffee shop that checked all the boxes; aesthetic, coffee, seating. This place has made me lose my mind, in the best way. The time has finally come that the borough can boast in a shop with premium coffee and a great place to meet and relax. Thank you, from the depths of my heart, Gryphon Cafe.

I'd like to respond to @Christopher's comments below. Do you enjoy puppies, or Christmas Day? Based on your review complaining about noise amplification, I can't imagine you could find anything good about things that bring most people joy. Buy a pair of noise canceling headphones and remember that this two week old coffee shop is easily the best one in West Chester already - it's not even close. Since they're in their infancy, give them a little grace to work out the kinks. I'm sure putting pillows on their walls is at the top of their list.

I saw “lavender latte” on their sign and that’s all I needed to know that I would love this place! Cute interior and nice outside tables are nice considering COVID-19. Lots of cute items inside for sale, unique foods like a pistachio cardamom scone and fig jam toast - both amazing! And the lavender latte iced with oat milk too? I was in heaven.

After waiting 15-20 mins this is what I got… not even a full cup of cappuccino and a ripped up sandwich
