My friends and I ordered their toter tots, crispy chicken and chocolate bubble waffles with milk tea ice cream to share and I ordered their jasmine tea with cheese foam. Our order was ready a lot quicker than I had expected. The taiwanese crispy chicken was crispy, juicy and tender as they used chicken thighs for it. It was also well seasoned and tasted authentic. The tater tots were also perfectly fried as it was super crispy and they were sprinkled with the same seasoning as the chicken. The bubble waffle was the biggest surprise for me as I have never found a place that does it right (texture wise). This is the place! The waffle was crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside and the batter wasn't too floury as I have often found in other places. But that could also be because we ordered chocolate flavor so I should try their original next time. My only complaint is it didn't have enough chocolate taste for me. The milk tea ice cream, although wasn't the best I've had but it's decent and you can still taste the tea. My jasmine tea with cheese foam was fragrant and the cheese foam complimented the tea well and didn't make it overly filling. Overall, I really enjoyed everything I've ordered here and it's perfect for a mid day or late night snack and drink. I have been to other locations in the area and thought they're not as good as this one so I will have to come back to this location especially for their bubble waffles.

The ambiance is cheerful and inviting, it transported us to a warm island day for our brief stay. It seems there was only one barista working that day and she was very helpful, patient, and friendly. My husband ordered the Cremas Latte and oh my god I wish I got it, it was so delicious; creamy, flavorful and sweet. I ordered the iced toasted almond "hot" chocolate, it was a very rich dark chocolate taste with the amaretto flavor coming through nicely. It was not overly sweet which I enjoyed. I think this is how hot chocolate was meant to taste and I'll be curious to try it hot. I also appreciated that there was some of my drink that didn't fit in the cup, so the barista gave it to me in another cup. My son ordered a Golden Mango Smoothie- he loved it! I love that it has turmeric in it, I felt good letting him have this drink. We also got some snacks. We ordered the Haitian beef patties which were very authentic. You get two per order which was a nice surprise. My son wanted to eat all 4 from our two orders. We also ordered a mini chocolate cake which was decadent and moist and a mini key lime pie which was refreshing and delicious! It was really nice being able to go to a Haitian cafe. My husband and son are Haitian and we enjoyed teaching our son about his culture while he can enjoy treats made with imported Haitian ingredients and recipes. He also enjoyed looking at the art work which prompted him to ask my husband more questions. I only wish there was better parking, especially for us out-of-towners, but I know that is hard in a city.

The guy at the register, chris was very friendly and knew about all the products and coffees at the shop. He recommended Salem's blend latte which pretty good. I'll def stop by again to see what they offer for the holidays. I'm actually surprised about the negative review and it seems like it's the same person under a different name. I guess they have the patience to wait and see these creatures lol that's unfortunate though, because it's definitely a shop worth visiting and supporting a local business. Best of luck to the owners and I'll swing by for the next flavor!

They may not have a direct parking lot, but there is some parking nearby on the street as well as a parking lot across the street. You walk in and it's such an adorable atmosphere to walk into just the cutest little café. The customer service is great. They welcome you as soon as you step through the door you go up to the counter put your food order in. You can get it to stay or to go. Today I tried the Tres Leche latte and Cubano Cortaditos. The coffee had a great flavor. It's made with condensed milk so it is on the sweet side. The sandwich was 10 out of 10. Great flavor. I like the Cuban bread not too thick not too heavy the perfect amount if you want a good Cuban sandwich with a 10 out of 10 cup of coffee definitely check this place out. They have a couple different locations. Also, sidenote, they are dog friendly. I saw a small jar of dog cookies on the counter.

If you're just there for the coffee, they have a nice large space with tons of seating and lots of natural light. The oatmilk cortado was delicious - I heard another customer tell the barista sipping it was "like a warm hug." What sets them apart is the food. I had an everything croissant with veggie cream cheese, and it is spectacular. So fresh, so delicious. Wow. They also have lots of sandwiches on the menu. The chicken sally hit the spot, and not a bad price. Hard to top in this area.

It's about an hour and a half drive from Philadelphia, but it's always worth it. I ordered the General James Honey Fried Chicken for the table, and oh my goodness, it was delicious! The four jumbo wings came out piping hot and so crispy! We poured the sauce over the chicken after putting it on our plates, and the combination of that crispy, hot chicken with the sauce was absolutely delicious. Definitely something I would order again! For my meal, I had the brisket grilled cheese with its delicious combination of cheeses and French onion soup. One of my dining guests ordered lamb with mac and cheese and spinach. I tasted the lamb, and it was incredibly tender! They also raved about the mac and cheese. Another guest ordered the oxtail Rasta pasta, which I sampled, and it was absolutely delicious. Another enjoyed waffles, and we also tried the cornbread with strawberry butter. I appreciated that the cornbread was lightly sweetened and not overly sweet. The lavender lemonade was another hit, with just the right amount of sweetness. What I really appreciated was the hospitality. Because we were traveling from Philadelphia, traffic was unpredictable. The staff graciously allowed me to adjust our reservation while waiting for my guests to arrive and seated us at the next available table once everyone was there. That was greatly appreciated! If you're planning to visit, I highly recommend making reservations in advance. For larger groups, call the restaurant directly and plan as early as possible because they get extremely busy. They also have a separate takeout area with seating where you may be able to order and enjoy your food if you don't have a reservation. Overall, my Philly Tastemakers guests rated their meals 10 out of 10! Everyone enjoyed their food, and I was happy to introduce them to one of my favorite dining spots. The hot latte and Bottled Shirley Temp Tops Diner, you did it again! Great food, wonderful hospitality, and another memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back!

You also start out with fresh delicious homemade bread. We were full but ordered cheesecake cake and chocolate cake to take home. We were so impressed how much all of the staff really hustled!
