The short review: Cute cafe near the center of Palmyra providing a quality selection of coffee and food.
The long review: We stopped here for an afternoon caffeine boost and were pleasantly surprised.
Regarding food: There seems to be some confusion in central PA over what a cappuccino is - some diners and cafes will hand you a cup of hot milk with cappuccino flavored powder mixed in and charge you $5-6 for what isn’t anything close to what it should be. Thankfully, the Corner Cafe owns and operates a proper espresso machine and faithfully makes a good tasting cup of cappuccino! We also tried their blueberry crumb muffin and its fluffy sweetness with whole blueberries paired nicely with the bolder flavors from the espresso in our drinks.
Regarding service and atmosphere: The ladies working the store were very kind and greeted us as we came in and kept a nice vibe with the store. Overall the atmosphere is comfy, not excessively loud, and clean. I liked the shorter chairs they have at the tables. My only complaint is that the cappuccinos were served in disposable cups for dine-in instead of mugs, but we did appreciate that food is served on a proper plate with silverware, not a throwaway paper plate with plastic utensils!
Price wise, you can expect it to be comparable to most cafes, local or chains, where specialty drinks will run you $5-8 depending on sizes and the food items vary depending on whether it’s a small pastry ($3-4) or a main item ($10-12).
I’m glad to see a nice cafe open in Palmyra and hope to return again when I’m in the...
Read morePalmyra is lucky to have this place! Stopped in, with my very large and picky family, to grab a meal before heading home after a short stay in the area--it is clear this is a beloved local spot and an inviting rest stop for weary travelers. I can't say enough good things--the food and drinks were amazing, the service was so pleasant, the atmosphere in the place is awesome. It is a small local shop so please do keep that in mind when visiting, any wait will be well worth it both on food and good vibes! No kids menu, but options like muffins, pastries, bagels and fruit are available if...
Read moreI stopped in at Corner Cafe and had such a great experience! My pumpkin spice latte was absolutely delicious—perfectly balanced and full of cozy fall flavor. The egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on a bagel was fresh and tasty as well.
The service was wonderful—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I was working on my laptop for a while, and they were kind enough to clear my plate without interrupting me and even offered me a glass of water. It’s those small, thoughtful touches that make a place stand out.
A cozy spot with great coffee, good food, and genuinely kind people. I’ll...
