Tucked away, this Time and Peace cafe is a gem for a quiet time and a good coffee. They have some very interesting options, and today I'm trying the walnut cappuccino. The walnuts are on top and on the rim (if you are dining in) and only on top if you are taking it to go. The maple syrup that it comes with, gives it the perfect sweetness, so taste it before adding anymore sugar. The regular cup is a small cup, I would recommend the large, so you can get your normal caffeine intake 🤭. I also tried the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on a croissant (+$1). Very good! What I loved about it is the fresh egg they put on right before they make it! Amazing! The almond croissant, although warmed up, didn't live up to my expectations. It was a bit dryish and not very flavorful. Brown bags for all my purchases (it was a to go order) and the perfect white napkins included set me up for lunch. The setting is quiet, books and paintings on the wall give it a last century vibe (I felt oh, so good!) and make it a cozy, relaxing place. I would highly recommend it for a time away from the office to...
Read moreGreat place to work! I easily got a table and set up my computer to work for about half an hour. There was a large group there at the time so it was a bit loud but manageable as I was far enough to tune them out and the group wasn't too loud. I especially appreciate the wi-fi (password protected) being strong, making online work possible. I also ordered a bagel while I was working and, as a New Yorker, I'm happy to report it was one of the best bagels I've had in Philadelphia! It was so fresh, the butter brought out the bagel's flavor, and it was perfectly toasted! My only general complaint is that I wish there were coffee alternatives (ie Wider variety of lattes, hot chocolate, tea, etc.) as I am not a coffee drinker but would've liked a drink with my meal. Overall, I would definitely come back here if I'm in the area and need to...
Read moreI've been here before and liked the place, but this morning I had a terrible experience. I asked for a latte with skim milk and they were out. I changed my order to a hot black coffe and the cashier gave me a paper cup and told me it was self serve. I went to pur my self a cup of coffee and the carafe was empty. I sat down to wait for it to brew and after a few minutes I walked to the counter and asked for a ceramic mug. I was told they were out. 5 minutes later the cashier called over to tell me in her very annoyed voice that the coffee was ready, so I poured myself a weak cup of coffee. $8.40 for a crappy cup of coffe and an Americano in a paper cup. It was 10 AM on a Saturday and the place was not full. What...
