Small cafe with 3 small tables (2 chairs per table), came by for a quick brunch. There were 2 employees when we came by Cashier/Barista and the chef. The Cashier/Barista was very nice and the food was pretty simple but good. My one year old toddler loved their Orzo Risotto, unfortunately there was no high chair but we made it work.
Lovely little space with great food! Service is prompt, they have a cute coffee self serve station with a lot of variety and care like lotions and honey. The coffee and sandwich were fantastic, at a good price point $15 sandwich. Exactly what you would expect, wonderful bread and ingredients. Main comment is that there is no bathroom here.
cute, hidden gem of a spot with fantastic sandwiches! i've been meaning to check this place out for months, and my boyfriend and i finally swung by on a saturday. the spot is unassuming but adorable, and there is also a little marketplace section where they sell italian specialty goods. it was not very busy, we had no trouble getting seating. they serve illy coffee here, but it was quite underwhelming. the highlight is definitely the sandwiches. i had the smash burger which was not the correct choice... very mediocre burger with dry patties. the fries were surprisingly great though. my boyfriend had the porchetta sandwich which was fantastic. the ingredients were fresh, the porchetta was flavorful and well balanced. this is definitely an italian spot, and it was my fault for not ordering correctly. service was fast but limited. they were nice enough to let us order from the lunch menu 5 minutes before lunch technically began. i would definitely come back to try their other sandwiches and pastas.
Ok love love love. Right near Rittenhouse square with an unassuming front you'll find a small but tasty Italian shop. They have everything you could want: pasta and sandwiches, gelato, pastries, espresso. The croissants are huge and the "small" pasta portion is just right for lunch. Great value for price. There is also a small selection of Italian oils, vinegars and the like. Affordable lunch, cute vibes, my extract kind of place, 10/10 recommend.
Philly days! Only been around two or so years, this 17th Street cafe has a lot of breakfasty/lunchy food and coffee drinks to choose from. I had an iced mocha (new) latte and the delish large (and cheap) combo serving of wild strawberry swirl and chocolate hazelnut crunch gelato. One quibble, I'd offer the metal "sample" spoons instead of the plastic (soup?) spoons, as too bendy against the thick gelato. Otherwise breakfast and light Italian fare, sandwiches and pasta abound. Note: a nearby newbie and professional declared his cappuccino "the best I've ever tasted"! Limited seating inside and out and courteous service much appreciated!
What a hidden gem! I walked by here 1001 times but never popped in assuming it was a coffee and dessert place but they offer the best lunches around . It's 15$ for a Caesar and soup and that's hard to beat! Decently quiet with some in and out traffic. Quick service
Such a great addition to the neighborhood! Delicious sandwiches, soups, coffees, salads, pastas, gelatos, and more in an unassuming space in a great location. There's also a small area for Italian specialty goods, if you can believe it. Most folks, during the lunch hour I was there, were grabbing sandwiches to-go, though they do have a small seating area should you decide to enjoy your breakfast or lunch inside. I went with the Vegetariana sandwich and tried a bite of my boyfriend's choice, the Bottega sandwich. Both were cheesy and balanced, not over the top, and served on incredible/soft italian bread. That bread + fresh ingredients = sandwich heaven. I am dying to get back and try something off their breakfast menu (only served until 11am), which includes the classics and some Italian inspired takes as well. Staff is friendly and helpful, and everything was ready in a timely fashion. This will be a regular stop for me in the neighborhood and I highly recommend stopping over for a sandwich!
LOVED IT HERE! Truly authentic Italian cooking, with authentic ingredients to purchase. The staff was so friendly and accomodating on their menu. We had to make a slight change in order for a vegetarian, and they had no issues. We tried their breakfast sandwiches & lunch sandwiches, and each bite was jam packed with substance & flavor (I mean, just look at the layers in my photo.) Fresh ingredients, and an overall quaint/bright spot. This would be an awesome place to post up and get some work done, do some people watching, and enjoy delicious food. Not to mention, their baked goods looked out of this world. We wanted to get so much, but I landed on their passion fruit donut, partly because it was the last one left (so I figured something must be good!) And let me tell you, their dough is different. The donut was dense & fluffy at the same time, and their passion fruit flavor was y-u-m-m-y. I can't wait to go back to try more sandwiches and get some grocery shopping done!
So cute and the coffee menu is not like a typical menu it's very European. I liked it and would go back.
Have been here several times since this opened and have tried coffee, tea, and croissants. All EXCELLENT and I must say as a self-proclaimed croissant connoisseur, these are the best croissants I've ever eaten. No matter which croissant you choose, you can't go wrong. The perfect balance of flaky and crispy on the outside and chewy (but not TOO chewy) on the inside. Today, I ventured over to where they have all the imported Italian chocolate bars and tried the one with pistachios. Another excellent choice. Totally worth the ten bucks. Overall, this place uses and sells quality products. Most, if not all, are made in Italy. There are about 3 or 4 little tables inside (for 2 people), which you could just pull closer together for a party of 3 or more. I didn't notice if they were there on this cold day but when warmer, there are definitely small tables outside as well. My boyfriend told me to add a that there is no bathroom in here for customer use. Good to know. This place does NOT lose points for that in my book!
It's a family owned coffee and sandwich shop. The ladies who work were very helpful and friendly.
Stopped in and had a sandwich and cookie here. Very well put together sandwich with high quality, fresh ingredients. Choco chip cookie straightforward and tasty. I'll have to try something else next time. Definitely no corners cut here, worth the price for sure. Great spot to stop in for breakfast or lunch, or for one of their many bakery treats. Great people inside. Thanks
We stopped in here to grab a quick bite. The place is close to Rittenhouse Park and had some decent reviews. We ordered the soup, Caesar salad and bread combo to stay. They asked if it was to stay or go and despite telling them stay the order was in plastic take out containers. The soup of the day was a tomato basil and decent. The Caesar salad looked sad but was surprisingly tasty with a Dijon mustard forward dressing. The bread was fresh and steaming hot. The place itself has seen better days. The paint is peeling and walls are scuffed and dirty. They store boxes of excess inventory in the area where the seats are. It's definitely not a nice place to dine in. We noticed people were coming in for to go orders. Overall, it was ok in a pinch but not a spot we would return to. read more

When walking by this place, you may not think this is anything special - but you would be sorely mistaken. I had bookmarked this place a little bit ago, but had always walked by and not noticed it. Immediately when entering, you are greeted by a friendly hostess behind the register. This is a mix between a coffee shop and a cafe. It just felt like something the city has been missing! We tried a croissant and the egg and cheese special with pesto, definitely get this sandwich if it available, it was delicious! I can not wait to return and think next time I will come later in the day to try the pasta and soup selections. read more

The cacio e pepe was sooo flavourful and delicious. I got the small portion for lunch and it was a generous size for the low price! You can definitely tell the pasta is homemade and everything in store is super authentic and straight from Italy! Owners and workers were very pleasant as well read more
