    Cloud dancer
    Rachel K.

    Very unique coffee drinks. We tried the flash brew which is their iced coffee and the cloud dancer which is a coffee mixed drink. Cloud dancer was so unique. It had a really nice foam cream on top. The mint and tonic flavors were refreshing and so interesting in coffee. Inside was cute and small. Not much seating. Only 1 small table that fits 2 people. There are some benches against the wall for people to sit but not too much room. Seems like most people were getting their coffee to-go

    Stopped by mid run for a quick boost. The spot is pretty small but it had a few seats inside. Jasmine Tea Dream was a smooth latte where the jasmine tea really comes through. It was a unique drink and I would definitely come back again.

    Endless summer latte

    A small store with limited seating. It is a very well lit space and had clean and homey vibes. When I arrived, it was clear that some of the other customers were regulars and friends with the baristas - a good reflection on their service and food. I got the Endless Summer special which tasted almost like a miso cookie with a tad of rosemary if I tried to search for it. I wish the rosemary flavor was stronger. This was the first time I've ever had a latte that tasted a little savory and I liked it. Def would want to try their espresso straight next!

    Vanilla Latte & Iced Americano 9.5/10 !

    Absolutely adore this coffee shop. Mega community vibes and so freaking welcoming! Whether the sun is shining or the rain is pouring, you instantly feel a bit better once you enter Persimmon. The Friendly staff guide you to the beverage that will elevate your day. They also make their own syrups in house which is crucial for a great tasting latte without all that artificial stuff. No tables or laptops here- just enough seating to have a great little catch up with a pal and be on your way! A top 5 Philly coffee shop for me and I am no longer Gatekeeping this one! :-)

    adorable little coffee shop with cute themed goodies! super cute coffee shop, i absolutely love the clean aesthetic and the quaint decor. feels very peaceful, this would be a great spot to chill with a drinkity in the middle of a busy day. there is limited seating with a bench area in the back of the coffee shop. they were also selling persimmon themed merch, i was so tempted to buy the persimmon earrings. also love that the jewelry was created by a local artist! there was only one employee who was friendly and quick. i had the matcha latte with vanilla which i enjoyed. the matcha was smooth, and the kick of vanilla added a pleasant touch of sweetness. would recommend!

    Was in the area for food and wanted to pop in for some coffee. Cute little coffee shop, minimalistic and clean inside. Wow the service! The guy who worked here, I didn't get his name, was so funny and friendly. Really made my little coffee stop memorable and a positive experience. I ordered the jasmine coffee dream. I absolutely loved it! Really unique drink with the perfect amount of flavoring, and not too sweet. Definitely recommend!

    Cute little coffee spot with outstanding coffee. Inside is cute and very inviting. I got the jasmine coffee dream with oat milk and it was legitimately to die for. Service was great and barista offered great suggestions and was very friendly. I will definitely be coming back.

    A cute pet-friendly cafe with a persimmon theme in Fishtown. It might be a popular spot in the neighborhood as it was busy on a Sunday morning Side note: My friend recommended me Drift Magazine for city coffee guide and I was excited to flip the physical copies there. We ordered latte and cappuccino. Very smooth coffee with a nutty espresso base. Well-frothed milk gave a creamy texture. Loved the latte art on top. The porcelain mugs and coasters they used were cute. Their pastries looked attractive to serve with coffee too.

    Emerald city
    Sophia M.

    I was planning on getting a regular coffee, but they had such interesting specials that I ended up getting one of those! This drink (emerald city) had matcha, ginger beer, and heavy cream. They had a plant-based cream option (the Country Crock brand) so I got that. This was so refreshing and unique! Services was just one person so it was a little slow, but they were super friendly and nice. Minimalist decor and only a few seats but my group of 3 didn't have an issue getting seating at 2pm ish.

    Kind and friendly service, the coffees were well made and the pastries high quality. I believe they get them delivered. The space is minimalist, which I love, but quite uncomfortable to stay and sit to drink your coffee. The tables are super lightweight, from ikea, I believe, and you can accidentally tip it over easily. And the tables are much lower than the seats, so just the whole thing is quite uncomfortable, sitting on the outside of the room with every other patron.

    Simple, stylish cafe with great coffee and friendly staff who love to serve you and talk about coffee. My cafe latte was delicious. They seem passionate about quality, delicious coffee. They have pastries on the weekends, but food is not their focus. Not much else to say. Highly recommended.

    Cute cup! Drank all the corn tea
    Eunice K.

    OMG soooooo good! Weckerly's was one of my fav places in Philly and now this is another one of my favs and I'm so glad they're next to each other I tried the winter coffee with oat milk and OMG soooo good. Really tasted like a cup of winter. Also got a cup of the iced corn tea and that was good... As I was drinking my cup of coffee I instantly wanted to go back and order like three more for my drive... lol but I didn't have a large cup and I had to eat all the ice cream I got from weckerly's... but I will be back every time I visit now lol... I guess it's a good thing they don't have one in jersey or ny cus I'd be there at least once a week depending on proximity... If you're near you need to stop by this cute cafe! Good coffee and great service!!! I didn't take any pics cus I left my phone in the car which is why you have a pic of this empty cup and store front. Didn't even take a pic of my cup of coffee lol and it had pretty latte art!

    High quality nuanced coffee, pleasant but small shop, employees take the time to answer coffee questions.

    Their hotel room's glass shower door shattered with me naked inside leaving me with cuts on my body…read moreso deep that I needed immediate emergency attention and stitches. I was admitted to the nearest emergency room because I took a shower at this hotel and used the shower and its door normally. I was cut along my left wrist and forearm and on my right foot. Two of my toes and my wrist and arm are still recovering from this injury nearly a full month after this incident. At least one medical professional told me that I could have been at risk of bleeding out (dying) if the situation was slightly worse. And who knows if this hotel uses the same model shower door for more than just one of their rooms? The hotel's management did not call me to ensure my safety, apologize for the horror that they have put me through, or do their utmost to ensure that I am compensated for the horror that I was forced to experience at their establishment and it's been nearly a full calendar month since the incident with no successful proactive contact from them. Other than this horrifying experience which can likely happen to any of their other guests who decide to shower in their establishments the experience was beautiful. Very nice hotel room. Very dangerous shower. So if you are okay with risking your life and health every time you use their shower or don't plan on showering at their establishment at all, this is a great hotel for you to stay at.

    Stopped in for brunch while in the area. The food was delicious. The service staff was very…read morefriendly and patient. The only downside was the limited menu for someone in my group that has a gluten allergy. The menu was small and most of the items had bread/flour or included an ingredient that was cross contaminated.
