Konditori Coffee — Restaurant in Philadelphia

Lovely quaint + cozy little coffee shop! And great coffee + assortment of pastries as well (gluten-free options, cookies, bread).

Atmosphere: very clean, though there's only seating for 8. I went with a friend ~3pm in the afternoon, and it was pretty quiet. I wouldn't bank on getting seating during busier hours though.

There wasn’t a single customer in there even. If I had luggage rolling with me, which is a bigger item… would you say the same thing? Why is holding a scooter next to me a problem? I don’t get it. Btw I just came out from Uniqlo store, walked around the whole store with it, went to changing room… non of the staff had any issues, why would they. But this barista… knows better. Anyway,...
