Really tasty labneh bread, which I've never had before. Out of this world delicious. Like I'll probably want to come here all the time get a piece of this bread! It was a big hearty piece of fresh chewy bread with yogurt spread, cucumbers, olives, and olive oil. As others noted, the coffee was a little weak, but it was very hot. That's important to me. Nothing worse than some lukewarm coffee. Service was friendly. Prices were normal. Tables with outlets. Only complaint here isn't even the business's fault. And that's that there were like 20 children here at one point. Screaming children makes for a horrible experience anywhere you are no matter what you're doing. Everything was so much better once they all left. In general it was very busy here the whole time I was here, so they are definitely a booming business! I'm sure I'll be back. At least for the labneh! read more

We were freezing so stopped for a cup of joe on the way back from the mummers parade. we had delicious and highly recommended cappuccino, and awesome fresh banana walnut bread. We were pleased with our first experience at this friendly place and we will for sure be back. Four and had Yelps! read more

Cool place! Coffee was pretty solid, and I loved the big blue mug. Food was decent, too - Eggel and some bread with yogurt spread and olives. Both were good. Two coffees and two snacks for $11 is pretty great, too. AND they had Emancipator on the radio. read more

My go-to place for a nice iced vanilla latte. The service is friendly and quick. Ask for a frequent flyer card when you get there! read more

Philadelphia Java Company - My favorite place for my vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This place is so insanely idyllic, it's ridiculous. Whenever I want friends from New York or elsewhere to consider moving to Philly, I stroll them past it and nonchalantly suggest we grab coffee there, as though there's a comparable coffee shop on every corner. There's not. Philadelphia Java Company is heads above the rest. Service is great. Several of the baristas have been there for years. Prepared foods are scrumptious (I'm talking to you, hummus wrap and mozzarella and tomato sandwich). The huge windows, consistently strong wifi connection, and decent availability of power outlets make this a great location for doing work. And while it's not uncommon for the majority of the twelve or so tables to be taken by other customers, I've never once had to wait for one. One caveat: The coffee is a touch on the weak side. But refills are only a buck, so there y'go. Caffeine fix fixed. read more

This place is so freaking charming and cute from the outside I just had to stop by for a visit. Looks can clearly be deceiving. The interior seemed much less cozy and my iced mocha was a total disappointment, as evidenced by the fact that I threw out half of it. The baked good I had (some sort of bread- I think Zucchini) was dry and totally forgettable. Hmm guess I won't be lured back into this shop again.. read more

My go to cafe for yummy pannis, coffees, and outdoor seating. On a nice sunny day, bring a friend or two to have a seat outside with you and sip on iced coffee. You can't go wrong and service is always friendly. read more

Just moved to the area and was thrilled to find a coffee shop so close. First visit was amazing. Everyone smiling , people chatting happily , owners engaging with customers. Since then my view is more ambiguous. Baristas seem overwhelmed at times and will not acknowledge you if they are busy. It also has a clicky vibe. Like high school. The locals rule this place. The s menu is unique but very specific. I don't always want pesto at 8am. Lol They are very welcoming of pets which is great as an animal lover. If there was more competition in the area I don't belive this place wouldn't have the cult following it has. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here . read more

Solid work place with lots of tables and great lighting. My girlfriend was determined to eat the notorious eggle they have here and gave it a solid 10/10. Not many options for people with dietary restrictions but the coffee is strong and hot as magma. Your mouth will pay the price for your impatience at this place. I like it. read more

Philadelphia Java Company - Eggle. The pesto makes it. Apparently. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I've passed by this cafe more times than I can remember. After reading rave reviews about their coffee and macarons, I decided to stop in today on my way home. Unfortunately, I was sadly disappointed. I ordered a cup of coffee but what I received was tasted watered down and flavorless. I know they brew La Colombe, which I love, so I don't know what went wrong here. Also -- the hype over the macarons is just that, hype. I tried the coffee and chocolate, both of which were extremely sweet and the flavors just didn't come through. read more

Great atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Dog friendly. Cute outdoor seating lining the building. Munchies in addition to great coffee. LOVE. read more

This coffee shop can get busy during the day but a great spot to post up study, business meeting, etc if you can get a spot. They have a couple outlets if they could add more in an efficient way with out extensions (outlets coming from the floor under tables?) tripping up people that would be even more clutch for business. Vanilla latte is good if you are scared to explore can't go wrong with it. The vibe in the shop really helps me study well for some reason. Lots of windows for natural light. read more

Fantastic coffee, but took FOREVER just to stop in and grab 2 coffees. Hipsters will enjoy. I think I'll go to wawa next time.

The Gang from It's Always Sunny approves, so it's good enough for me! Great place to sit and read while you enjoy a perfect cappuccino or herbal iced tea blend. Good strong coffee from La Colombe. I love the huge open windows and outdoor seating. Bright and clean. Quieter and more friendly than the other Java location (on 4th), so I prefer spending more time here. read more

Excellent latte and chocolate croissant!! They have a really nice bathroom which was a relief (literally) as I had been Uber driving.

A little more upscale than the original location and not quite as large. The coffee and food are as good asa the original location. Free wi-fi and dog friendly. read more

Philadelphia Java Company - Where is my snack? - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I'm glad I have my favorite coffee shop right in my neighborhood. It's really cute and everyone that works there is very friendly. Besides from coffee/teas they serve there - the thing that sticks out is the Eggels. It's so simple but it's so delicious. I would have never though to put boiled egg/pesto on a bagel! Genius! They also have these tarts are so tasty. It's like buttery goodness - I'd recommend the almond/raspberry one of the three they normally display. read more

I really love this place! I've come here a number of times to get some work done, and have always experienced very good and friendly service. I love the coffee and the eggle! (get the eggle!) The shop itself is really nice (cute) and when its warmer out they open the windows which is really refreshing. I would certainly recommend this place! read more

I come here pretty much everyday. It feels like home. The coffee is some of the best I've had in the city, the prices are reasonable, the food is surprisingly delicious (try the eggle), and the staff is always amazing. read more

What a way to start your day. I love petting the dogs. Great cup of coffee. read more

Philadelphia Java Company - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Philly Java is one of my favorite places in the city. Their coffee is amazing (La Colombe) and everything I've had to eat or drink there has exceeded my expectations. In the summer they have delicious hibiscus iced tea, and in the winter few things are better than curling up in the funky green chair with a big latte and the best grilled cheese of your life. Not to mention that they also have a really sweet and funny group of people who work there - always down to listen to you vent or discuss the latest local gossip. In Queen Village and need coffee? You can't go wrong with Philly Java. read more

Solid neighborhood coffee place. I'm a freelancer and I've been coming here to work a couple times a week. The service is good and friendly. Drinks are pretty good but the coffee is a little on the weak side. Overall I can't complain. Strong wifi connection and I really like the banana bread. read more

Great place to get some work or studying done. The menu selection for drinks are limited, and the place tends to get busy. But there's plenty of tables inside and out. I'm a huge fan of chai lattes and by far java has one of the best I've had. read more

Philadelphia Java Company - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Coffee and food were acceptable. Barista was not very kind! Actually, the eggle was borderline unacceptable.

Stopping in here before work has become a morning ritual for me. The coffee is great and the service is prompt and friendly. They really did a nice job fixing up what was once a copy repair store, installing large windows that open up onto the sidewalk and adding outdoor seating along 2nd Street. My only gripe is that the seating inside could be a little more inviting, but they are short on space and appear to be maximizing the seats. read more

This place is fabulous. Smooth creamy lattes and delicious labneh. It's a little pricey but a nice treat every now and then. Definitely recommend read more

Internet at this place doesn't work. The barista said it's a common problem. Good coffee and food. Friendly staff. All the customers seemed to know each other which is cool. read more

This is becoming my favorite coffee shop, even though it's not in my neighborhood. The baristas are nice, and they take credit cards. I am in love with the Earl Gray tea with some steamed milk. Also, their pressed mozzarella tomato sandwich is great! I go out of my way to work at this cafe, and I don't mind a bit. read more

so this place has great coffee, friendly staff, delightful corner location, free wi-fi and reinvigorating AC. so what pushes it over the edge from just a fab local coffee shop to a super-awesome-uber-fantastic place for brew, snacks and bites? they have freshly made MACARONS. delivered DAILY. from a local french bakery/pastry shop that cannot be named in the city. MACARONS!! i know, i know. we're still really into the cupcake thing. and don't get me wrong, i live for cupcakes (ahem and cake). but sometimes a girl just needs a macaron. they have a variety of flavors each day. eat them. enjoy them. sip your coffee. people-watch the locals. nibble on some light fare. pet the dogs. read everything on the interwebs. indulge. but you stay away from the pistachio macarons! if you eat them all, there will be none left for me, and then it will be such the very sad day. read more

I was so excited when I saw the owners were renovating the ground level of this once-ugly building. I talked to them several times in anticipation of the opening, and they are soooo nice! Now it's been opened for a year, and I'm a fairly regular customer. Living in this corner of Queen Village, I'm really happy to say that it has transformed the intersection completely. Neighbors and friends are often meeting here for coffee and sandwiches, inside and out. Everyone sitting outside looks really happy and relaxed, too. The owners recently planted some trees there, too, and regularly interact with their customers. They seem to know everyone there, and always smile and wave. I stop every Friday for my caramel latte, and it's very yummy. They recently added some chocolate cheesecake muffins, which are almost as good as my mom's! I spend some quiet time there when I need my space, too, and I agree - the music, I think off the iPods of the baristas, is always cool. read more

It shouldn't be my problem the barista was having a bad day. Literally tossed my credit card back at me after swiping. I ordered a latte with no foam. It was all foam. After realizing I wasn't leaving with it - she offered to remake. No foam but it was only filled half way. I paid for a large but no way I was going to ask her to add more milk. Won't be back - which is too bad - the pumpkin bread is really good! read more

I came here for the first time recently. I ordered an Iced Chai Latte with soy milk. It was probably one of the best chais I've ever had. If you're looking for a coffee shop to get work done in Queens Village, this is the spot. Pro tip: If you come here for a first date, grab some coffee and go for a walk or sit outside. The cafe is really small and really not suited for a sit down coffee date. read more

I would love to recommend but the owners unfortunately have a very limited understanding of customer service. Great spot to study/read/enjoy a coffee and snack but that's about it. When asked to leave after purchasing $15 worth of coffee because my wife and one year-old were eating something not purchased at said locale, it begs me ask if the owners have any clue of hospitality or sensibility. I've recommended this place to friends before but will not be doing so moving forward. I'd rather enjoy a coffee and breakfast sandwich from The Palm or 7/11 across the street than frequent a shop with no concept of neighborliness and common sense. I'll be traveling a little further to the Shot Tower or Chapter House the next time I'm looking to sit down in friendlier confines to study or enjoy a coffee. I originally went with one star but your staff are very nice, so enjoy your two star review. read more

I normally try not to be a "regular" at any given place, however, I make an exception for Java Co. I'm terribly boring; I always order the same coffee, and croissant when my little one is in tow. They are efficient and friendly here, to be sure. The coffee is expensive (average $3.75 per cup) but it will take care of your fix! Plus, I'm not into the coffee scene, and this establishment is blissfully free of pretentiousness. read more

PJC has become a Saturday morning tradition for my family of 3 (sweetie, furry friend, and me). Let me share the reasons why this place is awesome: 1) La Colombe. 2) EGGEL: bagel, pesto, sliced hard-boiled egg, all grilled to a warm perfection. 3) Irresistible sugar donuts. 4) I feel like I'm sitting in a European cafe, even though I'm 8 blocks from my Pennsport Pride digs. 5) I'm pretty sure they love my dog almost as much as I do. 6) Awesome, super pleasant staff that always remembers my sweetie is a decaf drinker. 7) Right around the corner from my furry friend's favorite dog park at 2nd and Queen. (PS: The only thing that kept me from 5 stars is the genericness of the prepackaged Philly cream cheese container that comes with your bagels. I wish you put it on the bagel and that you offered some more variety in flavors). read more

I live in Voorhees NJ. I work on Broad Street in South Philadelphia near the Navy Yard. This place is out of the way, but I make the effort to stop here at least once a week. It may not be my absolute favorite, but when I am not craving a greasy bacon sandwich in the morning you can find me at Philadelphia Java Company. read more

I stopped in today and had a great skim latte and the Labneh bread which was excellent (I had never heard of it prior to our stop today). I will definitely be returning to this wonderful little shop. Great coffee, atmosphere, food and service. read more

On a hot day, nothing is better than an ice cold coffee. It would appear that Philadelphia Java Company knows this as well. After seeing a movie at Riverview, and biking around in south philly, I was literally melting, but luckily I happened across the Philadelphia Java Company while on Christian street. The inviting exterior with it's nice type and healthy amount of out door seating just said, "come on, take a load off." So I obliged the now talking chairs and tables, obviously induced from the heatstroke I was receiving. Upon entering, it was this beautifully decorated, well air conditioned, relaxing interior. A couple of people were on laptops, a happy air about everyone. Nice, relaxing music was playing on their stereo, which was great to enjoy while I sat inside and enjoyed my awesome tasting iced coffee. Just make sure to ask them for the recycling bin when you're done! read more

I like the java jawns & this one's jus round the corner from me. Very popular neighborhood spot. It's winter & people still get some coffee to sit at the outside tables...probably mostly to smoke but its nice the tables are still there for those who don't mind so much the risk of frostbite & gangrene. I like the tea & I chug coffee.5 stars. read more

Coffee was good but the folks working there seem like you are bothering them when you order coffee. And wait. Wait more. Could be a 4 or 5 star if they cared. read more
