    Pork roll sandwich
    Mike C.

    Amazing breakfast sandwiches with great coffee, yes please! First food item I tried here was a pork roll, egg, and cheese sandwich. They load up the pork roll with at least two slabs of it and hot dam you can really cherish the sodium packed delicioso breakfast meat in this option. Later in the week I tried their Chicken salad in a Croissant, which came with fresh apples, nuts, and cranberries. This sandwich tasted magnificently light and yet filled you up with the nutrition packed yummy proteins spread inside the Croissant. Lastly, the dark roast coffee, this has a sweet biting taste to it, not overly dark. I splurged yesterday, and also tried the cappuccino, I am always hesitant to try cappuccino out as I have very high expectations. Luckily, the cappuccino was outstanding here. A little more pricey than the drip coffee but it doesn't let you down when you feel like mixing up your daily caffeine routine. I do not see any competition for my coffee business monies to be spent anywhere else in the borough of Ambler. I plan on reviewing many more restaurants in the borough of Ambler, if it interests you to stay abreast to the cuisines offered in Ambler, feel free to follow me on my journey. As always people SYOY!!!

    Cold brew to go - dark roast. Yum!

    Such a great place. Small menu but everything is fresh and delicious. I got the R5 with pesto mayo and turkey sausage. My son got the chicken salad which had too many nuts for him. My in laws loved their egg, cheese and bacon. They said the roll was so fresh. My husband had the burrito. The best part was the cold brew dark roast. I had two of them (discount for bringing my own cup) and purchased the cans to go since I am staying in a hotel. Guaranteed yummy coffee for the rest of the trip. Score!

    Avocado Ricotta toast

    Love this adorable local coffee shop! I am doing a show at a theater a few blocks away and this has become a go-to for me and my cast. The service is always fast, there are a good amount of seating options, and everything I tried is delish! It is a great spot to grab a coffee, bring your laptop, and get some work done. I had the iced latte and avocado ricotta toast at my most recent visit. The latte was great as always. I LOVE their avocado ricotta toast! The olive oil and red pepper flakes are a nice addition and it is beautifully presented. I would get this again and again!

    Yoooooo listen.... This joint right here!!!!! Was out riding my motorcycle and looking for a diner or cafe and this place popped up. We stopped in and the ambiance was awesome, simple, inviting. We ordered the Main St Bacon Egg and Cheese, it was amazing!!! Still warm, halfway through. Seasoning was on point! Crazy work here!!! Come here. Don't second guess it. Come here..

    I've been wanting to try backyard beans for awhile after buying their bagged coffee and seeing them at the lansdale farmers market. I finally got the chance to visit and I was very impressed with my coffee ! I got the pumpkin cold brew and was just expecting flavored cold brew but it was so much better ! It was pumpkin flavored, with a cream foam on top and caramel ! Honestly so heavenly. I wish there was a little less Ice or a bigger drink because I just wanted more ! Their menu is pretty minimal and they do have food offerings as well which I'll have to try next time! The cafe is very minimalistic and they do have a to go fridge and some merch for sale as well! I'll have to also check out the lansdale location!

    Our first roastery trip of the new year and backyard beans was a good choice. We ordered a mocha latte and a regular latte, both with oat milk. Both were creamy and the mocha wasn't too sweet, which is the usual deterrent from ordering a mocha. The salmon avocado toast was very reasonably priced at $8, but it tasted a tad fishy. Our beans, once we got the right grind setting were almost sweet, it was really nice coffee experience--makes you want seconds.

    dink counter with awesome cappuccino

    I have been to Backyard many times and never get tired of visiting this place. As others have said, it is definitely a millennial/bougie place but you cannot beat their coffee. I love that this place exists right on Butler. Their sandwiches (breakfast and lunch) are all great and well thought out - more than just your standard B.E.C. We only stopped in for coffee and tea today but the couple after us got two cappuccino "for here" that were both finished really nicely. They have an awesome plant wall that has over a hundred living plants on the wall. They also have awesome decor inside. PRO TIP: Grab a bag of their beans while you are in the shop. They typically have a bigger selection that what you can find in Whole Foods. If you are in the area and looking for a quick bite from a local spot, this is your place. They make all of their food to order but always have some great baked goodies on the counter. If you can deal with "millennial" vibes of this place, definitely check it out!

It's been such a welcome addition to the Ambler coffee scene since it opened a few years back. I've been a long time Backyard Beans devotee, but Wake has the better beans and general quality. I've gotten a number of their drinks over the years, but my favorite is still a classic cappuccino with oat milk (they've also got macadamia nut milk as the other vegan/dairy free option). For tea lattes, I would pick their matcha over their chai. They used to have a number of pricier but very tasty specialty lattes for the holidays, but this year (2025) it seems like they've streamlined their menu. The Tall Man got his capp with their peppermint mocha syrup, though, and found it delicious. I got a vanilla steamer as a treat for my little one, and it came with a little cinnamon dusted tree. They've expanded their food options and now have a bunch of pastries (muffins, croissants, etc) as well as hot sandwiches and toasts. I didn't see gluten free baked goods, but they have gluten free bread! The brand they use is quite good (if you like sunflower seeds, which I do), but the slices are on the small side - so when I got the Early Bird breakfast sandwich, the filling was positively spilling over the sides. At least they didn't skimp on that! Adding the garlic aioli made it just that much better. The coffee shop is in a cool little converted auto shop right across the street from the SEPTA train station. They've got a number of small tables and longer shared tables, making for a great place to meet up or grab a morning drink. Some folks do cowork there, but it can get quite crowded on the weekends and holidays. High chairs available for the little ones. There's not much parking in their lot, but there is street parking as well as parking at the train station. I'll be back again and again!

First impressions: wow, this place is huge for a coffee shop. Black River roasts their own coffee beans in house, which is always nice and means you're getting some high quality caffeine. Seasonal flavors included pumpkin, bourbon maple, and apple cinnamon -- so you already know you're getting quality, since these aren't flavors you can get just anywhere. I loved the signage depicting staff favorite drink mixes as it adds a fun touch to the menu! Coffee was great, my only complaint is that with syrups the drink can get way too sweet (especially since I typically drink unsweetened coffee.) Make sure to ask for less syrup and you'll be good to go! Can't wait to return!
