With a simple but robust menu there is something to satisfy every type of coffee lover. I ordered an iced Americano with oat milk that was so good, I didn't even take a picture. I also ordered one of the best almond croissants I've tasted. The woman taking orders was pleasant. There is outside seating for the plaza a few steps away for the coffee shop with a lovely breeze. Perfect place to sip your coffee. I will try the University City location but for a serene coffee break, the Bala location is it!

You'd easily miss it since it's in kind of a weird place in the building. Plus there's not really any indicator of it from outside. Service was quick. I went with an iced mocha which was delicious. It's on the sweeter side, but it's the kind of mocha I like. A good, rich drink.

Would recommend as a wfm option if you don't have any calls to take, and they even have some outside seating as well. Looking forward to trying some of the other menu items. The drinks are made rather quick, sandwiches could take about 30 minutes so I recommend calling ahead if you're in a rush. I recommend the Caprese or smoke salmon sandwiches and their match is always good on any day!

Walking into Pilgrims brought back so much nostalgia. It's been a few years since I visited…read moreregularly (as a student & wfh employee) but it's easy to tell not much has changed. Pilgrims is still a solid coffee shop and it's ran by the same smiling face behind the counter. Overall this place has great coffee, pastries and a casual ambiance that's perfect for people to get some work done. They've continued to offer more food & drink options that include prepackaged grab & go snacks like granola bars or chocolate milk. They also sell their coffee beans and some other coffee & non coffee related nicknacks. As for my initial review, I'm happy to report my tastebuds have matured and I don't need a million sugary drink options to be satisfied with a coffee shop. Pilgrims does have a larger menu with the option to add flavor to just about anything now but I wouldn't come to pilgrims looking for an elaborate seasonal "designer" latte with toppings. They might make a seasonal drink but i don't think it'll have as much sugar as some other shops that sell diabetes in a cup

Got it in a diner mug-- love drinking coffee at coffee shops in a mug. It just makes the coffee taste better, and I'm not sure how. This feels like a talking and catching up-priority coffee shop. Tables are a bit smaller, and the chairs not as comfy for long term sitting. However, the wi-fi remains strong, and it was good enough for 2 hours of work. I also had an outlet nearby ready, but didn't end up having to use it today. Coffee is great too! I love places that roast on-house and have their own beans, b/c you know that they care an extra bit more about the quality of their stuff. Will be back!

It has this perfect cozy yet energetic vibe--the kind of place you want to settle into with a book or meet up with friends.

Good Food: I grabbed a bite to eat (I had a croissant), and it was delicious.

Folks behind the counter were helpful in getting setup on wi-fi and getting my drinks. Having a mug was a nice touch when staying in the cafe for ~an hour and a half. There's a good variety of seating. One tiny knock is that the counter is just off of the right height. I'd say I have about an average sized torso, but it felt like I was shoulder shrugging if I were to use my computer there. Moved to a table elsewhere and was able to get things done. Mood here is nice for both work and conversations. Wi-fi was struggling a little bit (didn't confirm with a speed test), so probably nothing high-demand can be done here. For some light writing it was good enough!
