    BCR Bacon, Cheddar & Ranch wrap

    Ordered the food for delivery through Grubhub and it was the worst food we've ever had. Don't waste your time or money. The sandwich and wrap was prepared wrong. The serving sizes are abysmal. The popcorn chicken was dry and chewy. The fries were cold and stale. Grease dripping off of everything but somehow everything was still cold? Also don't waste your money on paying for the sauces. They were a knockoff brand of the sauces you'd expect from a Burger King and had no flavor. Don't be fooled, the picture shows two orders of popcorn chicken. Absolute waste and extremely disappointing!

    The way in which I audibly gasped when I took a bite of my sandwich from Hatch & Coop had my co-workers staring like I had three heads. Completely and utterly impressed with this place. I was worried that there was not a single customer inside this establishment when I walked in, but that didn't deter me from ordering food. My to-go order was placed through the kiosk at the front and I paid using my debit card. I got fries with dipping sauce, an eggplant sandwich and a seltzer water. I waited about 10 mins for the food to be ready. Nothing really stood out to me about the fries, except that they reminded me of fries from McDonald's. They were salted and still hot when I ate them. The eggplant sandwich, however... WOWZA! A slice of eggplant seasoned and fried on a King's Hawaiian roll. One bite and I was ready to go to town. It was nice that the cole slaw and sauce were in separate containers because I could see how the sandwich could get soggy if both were already on the sandwich. I had about a 10 min walk back to my office and it was still crispy and in tact. Not much to say about the seltzer as it was an average black cherry flavored club soda. They had a variety of beverages to choose from in the cooler. The staff was friendly and efficient. I'll be back and will possibly dine in next time!

    This is my second time trying Hatch and Coop and I really wanted this to be a go to for late nights but somehow the food and service is worse than last time. This is one of the only late night spots in Philly. If you have no other option please just Uber eats from Wawa, take the short trip to one of the many taco spots in South Philly, or just go to bed hungry. The chicken and waffles are served on a liege style Eggo waffle. It's literally an Eggo waffle I watched the cook rip it out the pack. The Hatch sauce is good but I could not get over paying that much for a freaking frozen waffle and probably a frozen chicken tender. It's very much a gentrified fast food spot. The best thing about this place is the cute light they have out the front with their logo in it. There's just a few tables lined up on the back wall. They do have touch screen ordering but I wouldn't dare touch one on any late night. And it's usually packed so it's best to order online. Again skip this place. The food is nothing to call home about and it's not going to be the remedy for your hangover. The security guard was also one of the most rude people I have ever encountered. I completely understand he has to deal with drunk people but it is never an excuse to be nasty to a customer or to staff. He was so rude to one of his coworkers I couldn't believe it. If I hadn't already received my food I would have requested a refund from his attitude alone.

    Cute little spot for breakfast food. Seems to be A take on the classic "chicken and waffles "paradigm. Service is efficient and the staff are friendly. Ordering is via kiosks or online prior to arrival. Sitting at this particular location is actually pretty decent... Especially for downtown Philly. We shared the chicken and waffles, the hatch, and tater tots. All of it was amazing! They have a variety of spicy sauces and toppings to choose from if you want some heat! Would absolutely return next time we are in Philly. On weekdays it's not very crowded even during breakfast rush.

    This was such a cool late night find! I really Would love to have one in DC. And it would actively help to make that happen! :) The choices were great and delicious. And the music made it almost like a late night club scene.

    After first walking in, I felt like I was in a run down, poorly maintained kitchen that probably shouldn't be open. Most surfaces were dirty and the cook top didn't look any better. The staff was kind and quick (we were the only people inside). One cook was there the whole time, two other cooks came and went for some reason? The fried chicken in my chicken sandwich was a little dry/overdone, but honestly I was happy because I was fairly worried about food poisoning. The fries were bland, no salt or seasoning. The sauces I ordered for my meal came pre-packaged, nothing made inside the kitchen. I was actually happy everything was prepackaged/cooked so I knew it was sealed and not contaminated. The overall experience was fine. I didn't get sick, but I won't be going back there again.

    Oh my goodness...You need to try Hatch & Coop. This is one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. The workers at this location are super friendly and provide great recommendations. My favorite sandwich was the Coop since I loved the slaw mix pairing and the chicken was so tender. The fried pickles were also excellent and perfectly crispy along with the homemade house sauce. The service was quick! Highly recommend this place if you want high quality large sandwiches for pretty decent prices.

    Hatch & Coop on South 12th Street in the Jefferson University Medical Center neighborhood is a perfect place to catch a tasty breakfast either before or after an appointment with your doctor (In my case, before). Walking in the first impression is of gray/black walls and loud reggae music. Attractive in a quasi industrial kind of ethos. Counter and kitchen along one wall and a half dozen tables against the other. Orders are taken via kiosk, which is easily followed, and then prepared and served by a worker with a smile. Their 50/50 Sandwich comes loaded with 2 scrambled eggs, choice of bacon or turkey sausage and melted cheese on a Hawaiian Roll, with sautéed onion and special house mayonnaise slid in to fit under the hood. First bite was enough to get me excited. The sweetness of the roll was challenged by the savory of the sausage and onions, while the eggs were soft and neutral, and the mayo tickled the buds with a little heat. It was an excellent sammy. Only shortcoming was the complete absence of coffee in the house. Boy, what I would have done for a large mugga joe! A plastic bottle of water is not a real alternative when caffeine is called for that time of day. Still, the atmosphere was chill and utilitarian and they will be open 24/7 soon. With the hospital down the street, these guys should be busy any time of day or night. Hatch should be a feast for the senses for those folks.

    Is the chicken and waffle sandwich a breast or a thigh?

    It’s our chicken breast. We brine, hand-bread and cook to order.

I've walked by here many times, but yesterday was my first time actually going in. I visited with a fellow Yelp Elite and one of her co-workers for Happy Hour. We were seated at a table near the bar and our server, who was also at the host podium, was Dontay. He was the kindest and sweetest man. He went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. We each opted to get one drink and no food. If you want to get the wind knocked out of you after one drink, this is your spot. The drinks were STRONG. I ordered the Market Street Muse and I could barely taste the limoncello. The vodka and basil were the most prominent flavors. I was feeling good. I'm rating this establishment four stars because the drinks on The Philadelphia Cocktail Trail were essentially existing drinks they had on their current menu but with different names. Same ingredients. I was hoping to see something new or related to America's 250th. Overall, though, the space was very calm and clean and I enjoyed being there. All the menu items sounded great, too. I'll have to pop in here for a bite to eat next time.

We asked for the toppings on the side because, you know, kids, but WOW. The vodka sauce was delicious, and the pickled tomato concoction that came with them? I could've bathed in it. The calamari was perfectly crisp and came with the unexpected bonus of onion rings, which were ever-so-lightly battered and perfectly crunchy. And once again, the sauces were superb. The boys shared a cheese pizza, half pepperoni, and really enjoyed it. My husband ordered the burger, and yes, I stole a bite--and yes, to no one's surprise, it was amazing. We also ordered the charred broccoli after seeing everyone rave about it online. They were NOT wrong. Creamy, smoky, charred perfection. And finally... drumroll please... the 10 oz. smoked Duroc pork chop! OH. EM. GEEE. Perfectly charred on the outside and incredibly juicy inside, sitting in the most delicious smoky morita-apricot glaze and topped with a bright cucumber-melon salad with mint and blue basil. The contrast was perfection! The rich, smoky pork, the sweet and slightly spicy glaze, and that cool, fresh salad on top. Every bite had the perfect combination of flavors and textures. Easily one of the best pork chops I've ever had. As wonderful as the food was, the service somehow made the experience even better. From the minute we arrived, we were treated like family coming home for the holidays. Warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. What an absolute joy of a restaurant.

It was still good, just not as "lobster ravioli" as Im used to. The pizza is a very thin crust but they did a wonderful job of not burning the crust despite this. There was a lao a really nice distribution of pepperoni throughout the pizza and it never really gave that "greasy" feeling that can happen.

The Love is better. The space is beautiful, the service is consistently warm, and Stephen Starr's fingerprints are all over it. I love the painted white brick, the floral artwork along the walls, the street-level energy, and the outdoor seating. I also remember taking the elevator upstairs once. I can't remember whether we actually stayed and ate up there or asked to move back downstairs, but the space was charming and extremely private. It would be a great setting for a group dinner or event. Personally, I prefer downstairs. It's darker, livelier, and I like being at street level. The menu historically leaned more heavily into elevated Southern comfort food, which has never been my favorite style of cooking. That's probably why I've tended to prefer The Love for lunch over dinner, especially when Philadelphia has so many Starr restaurants competing for the same night out. I used to get what I remember as a salmon and farro bowl, although the menu appears to have evolved since then. Whatever the exact iteration was, I loved it. Fish and farro are both right in my wheelhouse. I've also enjoyed the kale salad and other lighter dishes. The thing I remember most vividly, though, is the cornbread. It is outrageously good and reason enough to order something for the table. I also give Starr credit for continuing to broaden the range of food styles in his portfolio. Once you've built restaurants across Italian, French, Mexican, English, steakhouses, seafood, and the rest, there are only so many obvious boxes left to check. The Love feels like its own lane: distinctly American, approachable, comfort-driven, and still polished enough to feel like a Starr restaurant. Looking at the menu now, it seems broader than I remember, with more options that appeal to me, and I'd be psyched to go back. The Love probably isn't the first Starr restaurant I'd choose purely based on cuisine, but that says more about the depth of his Philadelphia portfolio than it does about this restaurant. The room, hospitality, location, and execution are all excellent. I'd happily come here any day. Starr doesn't miss.

Unfortunately, this was by far the worst experience I've had. We had a 7 PM reservation and arrived at 7:15 PM. I acknowledge that we were late and apologized to the host. However, we arrived within the stated grace period. When we checked in, the hostess explained that because we arrived later within the grace period, our 90-minute seating window would still end based on the original reservation time. We acknowledged that and had absolutely no issue with it. What made the experience uncomfortable was how aggressively we were reminded about the time throughout the entire meal. We were reminded at least 5-6 separate times how much time we had left. Comments like "just so you know you have 25 minutes left" and "our next party is coming in 5-10 minutes" made it feel like staff was actively trying to rush us out before our reservation time had even ended. Mind you, we already understood the policy. One reminder would have been enough. Instead, it completely changed the energy of the evening and made us feel unwelcome and pressured to leave. We had originally planned to stay through our reservation and then move to the bar for the live music afterward, but after being repeatedly rushed, we decided to leave entirely and spend the rest of the night elsewhere. The most disappointing part was the interaction with the manager, Eric. Rather than listening or showing any understanding, he immediately became defensive and aggressive. He repeatedly insisted we were "15-20 minutes late," which was simply not true -- we arrived during the stated grace period. The issue was never the policy itself. It was the way we were treated throughout the night. It's unfortunate because this has genuinely been one of my favorite spots in Philly, and I've recommended it to multiple people. But this experience left a really bad impression, especially when bringing guests from out of town.
