    Macarons, cakes, Korean corn hot dog and mochi doughnut
    Jennie S.

    This place is now a mochi doughnut joint. They also have variety of Korean corn hot dogs and macarons! I was almost confused because they didn't update their Yelp page. Go try it out! They're delicious! It's also pretty spacious and a great place to hangout at. There's a cute wall to take a picture with and swing chairs to relax in.

    Menu and interior

    I got a brown sugar milk tea with almond milk and boba ($7), and my friends got fresh fruit smoothies, milk teas, and mochinut. They said the donuts were sweet, but other than that slight thing, everything was delightful! The smoothies and the milk teas were so yummy and the place was cool + comfortable. Will definitely come back when I'm in Philly again :)

    Custom cake
    Angel C.

    T cafe never fails to amaze. Today we got a custom birthday cake. I will say the flavor is quite subtle. I think it could do with a little more sugar in the cake and the icing. However, if you don't have a sweet tooth but want a cake, this is great for you. We choose the pink ombré icing, plain vanilla cream, vanilla cake, and fresh strawberries. On top we're fruit, candy, and waffle cones filled with two different flavored creams: mango and red tea. Although the price is quite steep at $55 the packaging and beauty of this cake is well worth it if you want to go for a show stopper. I've also tried their crepe cakes here and they are really delicious. My favorite is the mango, but the matcha is great as well. Those are $11 each but they are pure heaven.

    Really good green tea Millie crepe.

    Honestly, I'm surprised by the quality of food and drinks here. I wasn't expecting much coming in. I had an avocado smoothie made with fresh avocado and condensed milk. The green tea Millie crepe was very good. I was craving for some, but A La Mousse always run out. So I'm glad they have it here and was tasty. I wonder who made it. I will totally come here more often.

    Mango nutella crepe in the front and bacon corn chees crepe in le back

    Stumbled on T Cafe with my partner right after watching a movie at the nearby Ritz looking for dessert! This place is such a cute little cafe in Old City which set my expectations high, but the desserts kinda fell flat. We ordered a Mango Nutella Crepe and Bacon Corn Crepe which were an average about $7 each. Both were okay, but were just lacking in flavor and volume for the price. I have had paid for crepes at that price before and received portions that were 3x the size of the one we ate. With that said, the place was still super cute! If you can, definitely sit in the swinging chairs near the windows and maybe it will make up for the fact that the crepes weren't amazing and there was a lack of heating. Just an FYI this place does not compare to Chinatown's level of dessert quality~~

    Matcha Earl Grey Mousse, Cherry blossom latte, matcha cream puff, mixed berry smoothie
    Yang C.

    Came here for the matcha lava cake. But they ran out of the 6-in and I didn't want to buy a 8-in... so we tried something else... The cream puff was something new to try. The filling tastes really good. The mousse was also great. The two drinks were okay for me... both are too sweet... The girl at the register was really nice and helpful!!

    Hazelnut mousse, strawberry/vanilla mousse, chicken wings, and Thai iced tea
    Lillian W.

    I've actually be waiting awhile to come here but it didn't live up to my expectations... the place and service were great but.. the desserts weren't that amazing. It's definitely a cute place with lots of room. I loved the swinging chairs (we waited around a bit till the couple sitting on them left so we could swing... hehe...) The hazelnut & strawberry mousse cakes were both okay. I guess they're really more for "the pics."

    Asked for latte art, instead I got a blob of milk foam...
    Rosy V.

    The cafe has a cute concept however the drinks were not on par with the aesthetic feeling of the cafe. We came as a group of 4 and 2 of us ordered 2 different matcha latte drinks (red bean and cappuccino) both tasted exactly the same and had a pungent smell to them. We were not impressed with the drinks and would not recommend this cafe. Drinks were an average $4-5 per cup and the latte art was foamy and looked like a blob of milk foam on top of the latte and just smelled like low grade matcha. The employees, when ordering, were confused and did not know what they were doing and had to consult another co-worker in the back. This is alarming because the week we went was part of their grand opening. When our drinks were ready, although there were a bunch of them standing around the counter, they did not bring our drinks to our table. Instead they left the drinks at the counter while they stood there chatting amongst each other. We left pretty disappointed because we drove out to Old City to try this new cafe and did not even finish our drinks and left thirsty.

    Mango Mousse, Tiramisu, Strawberry cream cake and a Thai tea.
    Nory T.

    Had this place bookmarked on here but never took the initiative to actually go..until we came across it on a whim. It's smaller inside than it looks, also kinda dark and there's only two swing chairs, that we sadly did not get to try because of a couple who were hogging it (they should put a time limit on it lol). The aesthetic is cute though, kind of like a garden theme. Okay playlist, you would love it if you were an Ariana Grande fan because that's all they played. Buyer beware! -- The prices are kinda expensive for some desserts, as we paid almost $30 for three desserts and a Thai tea, but it's a nice place to just check out if you're in the area. Nothing that Philly's Chinatown doesn't have.

    Matcha green tea latte
    Andrew Z.

    Didn't have a chance to try anything other than a latte when I was here, but I was pretty impressed overall. I'm not a huge fan of overly sweet drinks, so I was pretty happy that the green tea matcha latte was just the right level. The cafe itself is actually a lot roomier than I imagined; definitely a good spot to post up and do some work if you're in the area.

    This is a newly opened coffee/ dessert place in old city. Located near lots of yummy eateries and bars this is a perfect spot to get sugar fix ^__^ if you have a sweet tooth then come on by! The interior is very cozy and the music isn't very loud so it's great to get work done. Might I addd that it's perfect for a date spot. I ordered the latte and then I also got the americano. Very very good coffee bean selection. We also tried the dessert (picture attached). Very soft matcha consistency 5 stars! They have a huge menu. There are other coffee options as well as bubble tea. Overall awesome place

    Kimberly G.

    I stopped by on a weekend afternoon to get some work done with friends. The cafe itself is very cutely decorated. It's cozy and intimate, provides plenty of seating ranging from booths, small tables, bar stool seating, and one set of comfy hanging chairs. Music was not overwhelming and the 2 individual bathrooms were super clean and spacious. The drinks and food were ok. A bit overpriced for the quality -- drinks were not bad and the pastries were simply too average in taste/quality and small in portion for the high price they charge. Overall, great place for studying or work since it's on the quieter side located on the very edge of Chestnut street. Not too great if you're looking to enjoy a dessert drink or pastry -- there's definitely better quality offered elsewhere for that.

    Chocolate mousse cake
    Thuy Anna L.

    My mother in law ordered a chocolate mousse cake from here and it was delicious! Just the right amount of sweetness with a slight hint of bitter chocolate.

    Donuts!

We arrived with a party of 7 and no reservation but were seated quickly with no hassle. The bartender appeared to be doubling as the server but took great care of us.

This place treated me and my company terribly and they turned us away they must be making so much money that they could just be mean to whoever they want. We wasted like an hour of our precious time that night recently. It was 1am Saturday night (technically Sunday). He said last call was done and proceeded to kick us out rather than letting us wait there for our Ubers. However there were tons of other people there and he was fine with that. We were well-mannered and did not deserve to be treated that way. The bartender guy even flicked his middle finger at my best friend who is a gentleman that tried to capture a video of the establishment name and him. So he was brazen and bold to be nasty to us. It could've even been due to the color of our skin, and I am saying this as a patriotic Republican (meaning I do not cry "racism" for everything), but I will call it out as I see it. To prove this is a true review and story I've attached a video of the bartender who flicked us off and you can hear a girl in our group talking about how rude he was.

And I will say it was a little better than I remember last time. I got the works with mushrooms, peppers, onions, and provolone. On this one the beef was a little better than last time. The roll is a little too soft for my tastes. It doesn't hold up as well as others. But it was solid. It's still not in my top 10 in the city. But it will go on my more recommended list.

Campos is a small strip fast food dine in that appears to be well kept in and out. unfamiliar with the social popular attraction this restaurant gets.. but i chose to eat here as it was closest to us after visiting the adventure aquarium (great aquarium i recommend it) so that we could try authentic philly cheesesteak but sadly i was slightly disappointed and here s why: before i give my opinion i'd like to state i got a the italian cheesesteak rather get a simple cheesesteak and that's my mistake there but after noticing no prices were marked on the menus i already felt off about it. in total my gf and i each got 1 sandwich and a fountain drink bringing the total up to 49 dollars.. i didn't have time to react but seeing the prices set my expectations high. i was expecting to be blown away by being served the messiest cheesesteak i'd ever eaten so gooey and greasy it'd take years off my life but when we unrolled our sandwiches i was immediately let down. sandwiches didnt look appetizing and the italian cheesesteak tasted like i was eating one large cooked broccoli. there were peppers in my sandwich that had a whole lot of heat which i enjoy in a good sandwich but the heat came with no flavor and was too intense for me to taste and enjoy even the overwhelming broccoli flavor from the sandwich. i will say the sharp provolone was delicious when i could taste it but sadly that's all i take from my sandwich. my gf got the cheesesteak hoagie and says the flavor was good and enjoyed her sandwich but feels the price is ridiculous for the quality and i sadly have to agree. if i'm going to spend more than i would at applebees.. yes.. applebees.. for food that wasn't as good as applebees then i expect to be blown away. staff was average they weren't rude no complaints there. the store is air conditioned and well kept considering the very limited seating due to high traffic with pictures and painting on the walls with some historic look-backs to its earlier years. Overall i won't base my entire opinion on philly cheesesteaks from this review. i've heard from locals and family that you want to find the food trucks that serve cheesesteak as they have what i'm looking for. will i come back here? no. -update: the owner posted a comment to my review saying i should get out more then began to compare prices to other places that might just have better food i've never received this type of feedback but this is also my lowest rating so far so i'm i guess i'm not too surprised.

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.
