    I wanted to love this place so much. Not that I didn't like it, but I didn't love it. Searched while on a little Philly trip any coffee houses that are dog-friendly. This place had raving reviews about it, so we were excited to check it out. However, upon walking in, it was evident the place isn't very SEATING-friendly. There were only a few chairs at a long high top table. And a few were taken up by seemingly an employee or someone who was doing some inventory in the store. Because YES, it's Herman's Coffee & MARKET. I perused the different gourmet food items - chocolates, ice cream, jams, oils, chutneys, beef tallows, even cool homemade soaps and candles. I enjoyed the selection, though a bit on the pricey side. Hubby ended up getting a juice (bottled, not fresh squealed), and I had a Cafe au Lait. I also got a little sweet treat (small chocolate). Everything was pretty good. The wait for the cafe au lait was a bit long but they had a few patrons in there, so it was somewhat understandable. The ambiance is what I can only refer to as FUNKY. You can tell the place is laid out in a former car garage, with the rolled up doors and everything. The ceilings are high, with no or little insulation and the floors are concrete with (what I only mustered 2 seconds to see and had to quickly look away in terror) unfortunately a spotted rodent box, so that wasn't too pleasant to see. Would I go again? Maybe on a warmer sunny day and sit outside with my dog.

    We visited Herman's Coffee shop on a Sunday scene, and hour before closing. The place was interesting, had music playing loud and they were selling local stuff. They have a huge local selection which i was very impressed with. Plus flyers to local events and much more. I was happy to see all local at one place. But I had come for a coffee so I ordered one and was not very impressed. I had their ginwr flavored latte which was not hot and missed ginger flavor. So I had to request and extra shot of ginger syrup which they happily added but that made my coffee even colder. Wife ordered another latte which was better than mine but not great. So coffee unfortunately missed the mark. Another thing is that to use the restrooms you have to exit and go back of the shop. Not a big deal but just very inconvenient. I have heard that the place has a big gan following do I will come back to try their coffee again. I think it might have been just bad timing. But I do recommend their shop to encourage buy local.

    espresso shandy
    Sebastian C.

    I had been wanting to try Herman's for the longest time but was thoroughly underwhelmed when I finally visited. I stopped in around 8:30am on a Sunday and there was already a steady line of people. It took about 15-20 minutes from the time I arrived until I received my drink. I ordered the espresso shandy, and it was just okay. The espresso was overly bitter and watered down, and I could barely taste the citrus. (Later that same day, I found a much better version of the same drink at Mr. Rabbit in Center City, which I would highly recommend). The service wasn't the best either. After I ordered I asked the worker where the bathroom was, and she gave me the key and said "the red door outside." The only red door turned out to be a utility closet. I walked around the building, confused, a few times until another customer told me it was the gray door, which was practically blocked by Herman's outdoor seating. When I came back to the counter to return the key, the same worker condescendingly told me "you can put it back where you got it from" and turned away, as if she hadn't just handed the key to me a few minutes earlier. After a few moments of confusion, a different worker finally took the key from me. I don't think I'll be coming back, given how many other great coffee shops there are in Philadelphia.

    Nutella and Vietnamese latte
    Komal R.

    I have heard great things about Herman's and finally got the chance to try them out. Got the Nutella and Vietnamese iced lattes. Unfortunately our experience was quite mediocre, both lattes were very watered down. The Vietnamese latte had strong notes of cinnamon and seem to have little to none condensed milk - it wasn't strong too so I am not sure what part of it was inspired by Vietnamese iced coffee. The Nutella latte didn't taste of Nutella/Hazelnut at all, it was settled at the bottom of the cup and didn't seem to mix well with the iced drink. Maybe if they had prepared it hot first and then added ice it could've mixed and tasted better. They do have a nice store with things like mocktails, lil pop shop popsicles, manoa chocolates and some more higher end chocolate bars with very exotic flavor combinations so that is definitely worth checking out.

    Cookie butter latte
    Harleen K.

    The best latte I've had in awhile. I got the cookie butter latte and it was so smooth and creamy. The espresso was perfectly pulled. They really perfected their craft at Herman's.

    First time stopping in. Had a coffee date with the girls. We definitely plan on coming back. Service was good, comfortable environment and very accommodating

    What a cool spot! After ordering your drink (which can be anything from coffee, coffee mocktails, teas, matcha lemonade, or their seasonal menu), you can peruse their awesome assortment of specialty foods - from tinned fish (and ceramics!), tons of chili oil, sauces, jams and fruit curds, various chocolates, to mixers, mocktails, no alcohol liquors, and interesting bitters. Would love to come again when it's warmer to enjoy the cute outdoor seating!

    Vietnamese Latte & Iced Americano
    Soprina G.

    Herman's Coffee is such a unique and fun local coffee shop! Their coffee is smooth and brewed perfectly. I tried their beignets and the custard inside was dense and creamy. I would order it again. I also ordered their Vietnamese latte which is their take on a Vietnamese coffee. It has sweeter condensed milk along with star anise, cinnamon, and basil flavor. I thought it had a strong star anise flavor but my husband really loved the latte. The employee was able to give us a good description of the latte as well before we ordered it. Herman's is also a market. I saw people Nitin some tinned fish and crackers to go along with their coffee. They sell boutique alcohol and snacks. Herman's is a staple to the community!

    Pretzel Day Pretzel pop up
    Retna S.

    This coffee shop is quite popular. Especially because there's always pop up events including some food trucks and my favorite pretzels: Pretzel Day Pretzels. They also have some merchandise such as mocktails, drink mixes, Milk Jawn ice cream, and frozen MomMom Pierogies. I was lucky to get the last of the cheesesteak pierogie. I had decaf cappuccino. It was pretty good.

    cold brew yum
    Madison C.

    Delicious cold brew and really nice baristas. There's so many great options for drinks and this is also the perfect place to stop by to stock up for a picnic. You could sit in here and do work, but the seating is more for a little chat versus a long haul work day. This shop is in a garage in a good way. Great philly spot with awesome coffee. Silly chairs outside they're very low and the tables are very high but it's fun that way

    I love this coffee store.
    Carol L.

    I love this coffee store. This is a very unique store. It has an array of unique food items for purchase. If you love chocolate they literally have hundreds of different unique chocolate bars for sale here. The coffee is amazing too. I had a great Cortado here. The flavor and presentation was good. Outside was a local resident selling his homemade ceramic wear. What a nice guy. I purchased 2 beautiful black and tan ceramic mugs. I love supporting local and the mugs were gorgeous. This is a spot worth stopping if you love coffee, chocolate, unique items, and local wear.

    Vietnamese latteeeeeee
    Lizzy S.

    Amazing coffee, great selection of imported sundries and fresh local items, and often hosting incredible food trucks. 10/10 recommend making this your local coffee stop. Try the Vietnamese latte -- flavored with phô-inspired spices, perfectly warms ya on these cold winter mornings.

    Olga K.

    Coffee is always good. Love the location and concept! Love its little shop where one can find all kinds of cool snacks, foods, and drinks. Don't care for some of the less-friendly baristas and sometimes messy counters. But I'd come again sometime.

The first time, they were closed, but she stopped at the door and literally pawed at the door to try to get in. This is a good sign! The next time we walked by when they were open we went in. The barista immediately said "Hi, Lucy!" I immediately realized this was a regular stop for our dog sitter. They have a huge jar of dog treats as soon as you walk in, and Lucy immediately sat waiting for one! The place is very spacious and clean, and the people who work here are super nice. Best of all, the coffee is delicious. I always get a mocha, and it's the best in town. And obviously, they have the best treats in Point Breeze!

I don't think I've ever visited an an hour where I've seen it not. Often a line going from the counter, down the stairs, all the way to the bathroom. If you're looking for a quick coffee stop, don't expect to be in and out of here. That being said, they've got some kinds of seating not typical of coffee shops, including this nice long U-shaped couch seating. You'll be around with other folks reading or enjoying their joe, but it's a nice change of pace. Working-wise, wi-fi is solid. Outlets are sparse. Hard to stay a long time here. Music is at least at a tolerable level to tune out and is not usually too bumping. Staff here are quick, but won't be the friendliest. They won't be rude either. They're just trying to get through the line so don't take it personally Overall: would much prefer other places like Capital One Cafe for the reasons I visit cafes, but I can see this being a nice place for other more leisurely-natured visits!
