The staff makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. It's a small space, but seating is open…read moreand you can even grab one of the booths in the back, which we fully expected to be reserved only. Drinks are a bit on the smaller side for the price, but the menu is packed with fun, creative options. The combinations are unique, and the bartenders are happy to make just about whatever you're in the mood for. They have beer and wine as well. Important to know, there is no food, so this is best for a pre dinner cocktail or an after dinner drink. Also, parking is a nightmare so Uber or Lyft if you can. Overall, a great little spot for inventive drinks and a welcoming vibe.

My family and I got breakfast at Enswell during our stay in Philadelphia. This swanky, hip place…read moreoffers up elevated tasty food and superb service in an exquisitely decorated, albeit small, cafe. We braved negative degree weather for the roughly 10 minute walk from our hotel. We walked in at a good time. This is the type of place where a reservation for breakfast would be required. We were sat immediately. The dining area is tight. A green velvet bench, marble tables, metal chairs, all packed into a small area. You could very well have your butt brush over the table of the patrons next to you if you have to get up for any reason. It's tight. Our server was around quickly. He was super friendly and kept things conversational, light and sophisticated. My wife ordered an iced latte, I had their hot drip coffee. For a starter, we had to try the cinnamon knot bread. While it wasn't what we were expecting, it was good. Although, we wouldn't order again. The bread is presented as a small loaf, room temperature with a cold cream cheese icing drizzled over top. The bread had a mild cinnamon flavor and was dry. It lacked the sweet, moist dough you expect from a cinnamon bread. My wife ordered the French style omelet. This had gruyere cheese and chives. Beautifully plated, perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on. It was good enough to forget that she paid $21 for just an omelet, no meat, no sides. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Pretty standard here. The eggs had bright orange yolks which is common for farm fresh eggs. The "coffee" hollandaise didn't come across with a coffee flavor but it was rich and went well with the ham and English muffins. One thing that stuck with me was their drip coffee. Not sure if it has been a while since I had a light roast but the Rival Bros. Revolver coffee was so good, I got a bag of whole beans to bring back home with me. I may even order it again online. Enswell succeeded on all fronts. The ambiance and service was great. The decor, impeccable. The food, thoughtful and tasty. The details from the silverware to the plates added to the experience. We would come back.

The crab fries and garlic bread are no skips. I hope to come back to try more food! We were lucky to get a table, the hostess was really nice and even found us outside to let us know we could make it! It does get really busy so I felt a bit rushed out but it was all good.

I got the bell's revenge and this was super interesting- spicy and tangy and served upfront in an actual bell pepper! My family also loved their drinks - which were the wheelhouse and issa vibe and would 100% recommend going here. However, walking in without a reservation seemed almost impossible so would suggest getting one before you go.

Skip the Garlic dip because it just comes with a bunch of crackers and not all that great. I have to say that their website cocktails menu looks a lot more interesting than the actual menus that were given to us. Compared to what's on the website, the cocktails list was very bland.

Their menu has a few light bites to snack on but the main focus is the cocktails. Definitely a pricier, fancy spot for a nice occasion or just a memorable cocktail. Hanoi ski club is quite interesting - mix of gin, pandan, green chartreuse, vermouth, and cacao. The combo of flavor from floral, herbal, and earthy sweet was great. This works really well and if you like all those flavors individually, this one is great. Also tried the Chibiusa which was a much more straightforward sweeter drink. Usually very busy due to limited seats, but worth trying to get a spot if there is room available to try their cocktail menu. Thanks

Our server recommended the red light district - so so good. Our server was so wonderful! She was super patient with us and didn't ever rush.

The bartenders really know what they are doing here. The drink menu is really unique and all of the drinks are stellar. Loved their twist on an espresso martini.

It's not usual for me to request the group pop in if we're just walking by. The bevs are always on point and the bar tenders have extensive knowledge on the menu and just overall mixology. Not uncommon for me to ask the staff to "surprise me" with something. Speaking of staff, they are super friendly, consummate professionals and generally just a good time. Lastly, I think this place is a great place to meet people. I always seem to meet fun and interesting people while sitting at the bar.

My husband was late and normally I'd be annoyed, but I had the best time reading their drink book, pondering different ingredients and methods of drink production.

ADORABLE spot, with so many things going on. I'm not sure how much writer's block it'll cure, but…read morethe drinks are surely delicious and the bartenders very knowledgeable. The music is loud enough that you don't hear what someone at the next table over is saying, but not so loud that you can't hear your date talking. For me, the drinks on the menu are all a bit too sweet, so if you ask the bartenders to make you any kind of classic cocktail, they've got you covered. My martini with a twist was perfectly made, and the glass chilled down with ice and water before a drop of booze hit my glass. Our bartender was a master of his craft. We had a blast sitting around, having drinks, and chatting back and forth. Give this place a shot, it's adorable.
