Good beans, can’t speak for the coffee drinks.
really rude staff, not a good experience for a latte I could get anywhere else.
My latte was so good I didn’t add a sweetener.
This coffee shop has great flavered beans, and original blend "Old City blend" which recommended by staff has very rich taste and flavor. I had visited this shop on my first short staying in Philly from Japan , it is so great experience for me. I want to visit here again.
At Philly for the weekend, this is my quick review series of food places I have visited. This place is at the Reading Terminal Market. Really good Cappuccino, I ordered a double and the amount of frothed milk was perfect as well as the coffee flavor (Starbucks has a lot to learn). The ordering line was a bit long but they are well organized on the way they manage their orders. 3 or 4 minutes later I was out. I'll come back in the morning again! They also have cold matcha latte, and while waiting I saw one coming out and looked pretty good. Gotta try it as well.
Best chai tea in the city! Friendly staff as well.
Very nice place and very kind people. Vegan options for cappuccino available. Coffee was ok
The coffee was okay, but it was definitely a very dark roast, not medium as described. The cups were very low quality, they leaked at the seam, lid wouldn’t stay on, and stained our clothes due to leakage. Make sure you bring your own cup.
best local philly coffee
Looks like a hipster coffee place with great specialty coffees but serves overpriced, burnt, bitter coffee. Go to La Colombe or ReAnimator instead if you want bang for your buck.
This place has all the necessary tools and resources to make outstanding coffee, however, they do not seem to have good baristas or trained coffee makers. The milk was poorly foamed and the coffee was a bit bitter. That tells me that they didn't have the machine to the correct temperature for both the steaming and frothing. I had high hopes for this place but it fell short. I expected it to be better than your average Starbucks but clearly Starbucks trains their baristas. It's was a pity to pay $5.75 for a subpar cup of coffee.
Been there twice. I had a good hot chocolate. The other time tried the mint version and so can’t decide if I like it or not. But definitely a ok spot to have your coffee.
Really good coffee. Super nice and friendly employees. Efficient and fast. Was a treat to get coffee here each morning of my stay in Philadelphia.
Their Americanos are great. I had to go back for second one today!
Really good coffee, lots of selection from all around the world. I suggest you pair the hazelnut latte coffee with some cookies from Famous 4th St. Cookie Co. which is right in the next stall to them
On the morning of October 31, 2022 I went to Old city coffee, Reading terminal where I purchased a coffee of the day as I have done many times before where the guy that served me after I paid for my coffee begin project his hate by remanding me after I remember the day before that my coffee tasted better with liquid sugar again request for liquid sugar. He began to aggressively attack me with his word tell me how I should of been requested that telling me what I should of did. This guy took the opportunity be I was a customer at your establishment to project his extreme hatred and ignorance because I purchased coffee. Also when I reported his behavior to a what believe was a manager the next she made facial gestures as if what I explained was acceptable behavior...she forced me not to pay for my coffee as I could see she could care less what this employee did. Why would he treat a customer like that is it because he needed to single me out to project his hate unbelievable and your manager co signed to it all projected behavior of hate. Why? Who does this type of behavior....all cause I'm asking how I want my coffee...I guess that's a privilege that a person like me doesn't get cause I black because it should have been sooo very simple my skin color threw him off
had the best iced matcha latte in my entire life all prepared in the matter of seconds.
Stunning coffee, bought some ground beans to use in a aeropress while staying in the city, ended up having to go back for more because it was so good
This place has very rich full bodied espresso. Loved my iced latte. They make their syrup flavorings in house. I got the blackberry flavored one, it was lightly sweet but not too much blackberry flavor. Still good nonetheless. Price is okay. I would come back.
Good solid coffee for around the Reading Terminal Market. window for to go, good lattes, the usual coffee. Recommend if you need a no-frills cuppa
