I'm a fan. Good prices, good menu, good coffee. I definitely enjoyed the latte more than I liked the drip. While I haven't found a drip that I DON'T like, I certainly have a preference, and the trend of brewing & serving coffee with fruit notes isn't what I would generally reach for. But it's fine! Neat location. Comfortable seating area. To be honest, nothing overwhelmed me. It was a very standard coffee shop and good enough. Ticked the boxes. Wouldn't go out of my way to visit again. I will say - one thing I greatly appreciate about this place is the used needle container in the bathroom. It is inevitable that people are going to use, so give them a safe space to get rid of the things they are using. Much respect.

I like the creative concept by incorporating pretzel, kinda paying homage to our city of brotherly love. Taste wise is nothing out of the ordinary. I was anticipating real scrambled eggs but got 2 pieces of egg patties instead, no biggie. Texture is a bit on the mushy/soggy side, but i think it's because the cheese and i did ask for mayo to be slapped on there so be mindful of that. Service was fast and I was surprised by the inside seatings. It'a quite homey and peaceful to do some work despite the location.

I didn't dislike it. I didn't love it rather. Cute inside. The egg were patties instead of being freshly cooked eggs. I would have preferred either freshly scrambled or even a fried egg with a yolk that drips nicely all over my sandwich. I like the pretzel "bun". Definitely a unique take on the breakfast sandwich. I just think it could be improved upon and really be great. The cold brew was fine. Had an odd flavor to it that I couldn't describe. The girl who took my order seemed rather bored to be at work. Neither friendly nor unfriendly. Overall it's fine for a quick grab and go breakfast.

If you haven't heard of Rowhome, get you going! They do the classic, yet shockingly original Philly pretzel breakfast sandwiches. Side of pastries. Oh you want cream cheese on your pretzel? They got you. Sourcing local la colombe coffee gives them the chefs kiss of perfection.

Great neighborhood spot! The service was really nice and pretty quick. The matcha latte was perfect and the pretzel sandwich was delicious. I really appreciated how it wasn't super greasy. Great spot to chill and do some work or pop in for a quick bite. Will definitely be back!

Smoked Salmon pretzel sandwich

One of my friends told me about this place. I was intrigued at the concept of pretzel breakfast sandwiches, so I bookmarked it on Google and dragged my bf along with me to try. We ordered the pork roll breakfast sandwich, the smoked salmon breakfast sandwich, and the cinnamon sugar pretzel with cinnamon sugar cream cheese. The pretzels were a little underwhelming--not especially soft or flavorful, just plain. It was basically the same pretzel for every menu item, even the sweet ones. I wish they'd varied it up a little by making the cinnamon sugar ones sweeter or more evenly coated in spices. That said, they were fairly affordable and still filled me up all right. Unfortunately, the location is a little too close to Kensington for my liking. It's not so close that there are drug addicts just roaming outside the cafe, but the area is a bit dilapidated and suspicious. My bf and I visited but left right after finishing our meal. Summary: Novel idea without much of an impact. I'm glad I tried it, though!

Small but cool place. A decent waiting line but it moved relatively quickly. sandwich was awesome. Iced mocha latte was decent. Finding parking was a little tricky.

Everything Pretzel - sausage, egg, and cheese

I've always wanted to try this place! It's got a few tables to sit inside and not super crowded when I came on a Sunday. I ordered for pick up and was able to get my food timely and the workers were nice! The sandwiches were delicious - definitely unique in the city to use pretzels as the bread. Although the sausage was a bit dry. However, the pork roll was amazing.

Nice staff. We went early in the morning and got pork roll and sausage pretzel sandwiches. Cappuccino was perfect, and my husband liked his chai. Cute cafe located on a quiet corner.

Everything Pretzel with Bacon, Egg & Cheese
Mike S.

I have visited this location 3 times now and each time has been very pleasurable. From the young lady at the window to the vibes in the surrounding neighborhood. I have have tried 3 different breakfast sandwiches each time. I have to say the Sausage Egg & Cheese on an everything pretzel is my favorite though. All the sandwiches which you can see in my pictures below have kept me full most of the day. It's a mini meal! The cheesesteak egg and cheese was very good as well but messier. Usually I eat the sandwich in my car parked on Front street. It's about a 20 minute drive each way but I always leave satisfied. Great job Rowhome! I can'y wait to you have inside seating. Must add the Gf loves the Everything pretzel with cream cheese. Can't wait to visit again!

Sausage, Egg And Cheese
Alissa S.

Came in here on a Sunday to try out their breakfast sandwiches. I got the sausage, egg and cheese with everything pretzel. It was amazing!! A bit greasy to eat, but nothing a few napkins can't take care of. I'll need to come earlier since when I went around 12:30pm they were all out of the breakfast cheesesteak. Service was good, and there were empty counters and tables to read or do some work.

I ordered online for pickup, which was easy. I asked for the egg to be on the side since I was not going to eat it for a while and I wanted to be sure it wasn't soggy. The bacon was a little burnt (see below) but I added the egg (which was very thick) and you couldn't taste that it was burnt. I got the regular pretzel for the sandwich and it was really good, not too chewy and was salted to perfection. I think there was some type of spread on the sandwich, which was tasty. I ate the sandwich lukewarm, so I'm sure it would be even better if it was hot. *I will be back to try other sandwiches.

Sausage egg on everything prezel

Would recommend this place to anyone wanting a quick breakfast sandwich. This was the first time I had a cross over like this and I was very satisfied. The pretzel is nice and fluffy. Personally, I wish it was a bit more salty or had more sauce; otherwise, I'd say it was well seasoned (not overly salty or greasy). The insides did not fall out while eating which is a huge plus in my books. I stayed for another 3-4 hours to get some studying done and it does get quite busy around 10AM-2PM. Bring some headphones if you want to get some work here. There are a bunch of outlets and seating. I didn't have a chance to try a latte/drink today but my friend enjoyed his chai latte!

I've been meaning to try almost home general for quite some time, now I'm kicking myself that I…read morewaited this long. I had heard alot about their chicken caesar wrap, and as a chicken caesar enthusiast, I had to give it a shot. This was absolutely incredible. Dare I say the best wrap I've had in Philly. Everything was perfectly fresh, the dressing was delicious, and the wrap was perfectly grilled. I went for the truffle fries on the side, they were great as well. Perfectly fried and seasoned. Unfortunately my snickerdoodle latte wasn't the greatest. The flavoring was lovely and was just sweet enough, but the espresso was a bit burnt. Overall this was great, definitely adding to my lunch rotation.

Food: The bagels themselves were unfortunately very hard and…read morenot entirely enjoyable to eat. That said, the egg, cheese, and fixings were great. It's possible the bagels weren't fresh when we visited (Tuesday morning). I ordered a cereal latte and a mango smoothie. The coffee was fine but not something I'd order again, while the smoothie was really good and something I would recommend. While dining in, the overall presentation felt more like a cafeteria experience than a sit-down café. We were given plastic to-go utensil sets, plastic cups, plastic straws, and our food was served on a baking sheet. The overwhelming use of plastic felt underwhelming for dining in and didn't align with the price point, especially when the average coffee + bagel total exceeds $15. Service: The staff was friendly overall, but not very mindful of professional behavior while working. While the atmosphere is meant to be relaxed, one barista was sitting on the countertops and taking personal calls on speaker, which felt off-putting as a customer. Ambiance: It's a nice open space with great natural lighting and plenty of seating. Overall, it's a good place to work, hang out, and get caffeinated.
