Can't believe I've never reviewed this cafe! Been coming to this location for 6+ years and have a consistently great time. Baristas are consistently welcoming. The cafe is huge and features plenty of outlets to spend an afternoon being productive. Also a great place to catch up with friends over a light lunch (or drink after 5). Its location in the lobby Wilma theater provides an especially unique ambiance. Must tries on their menu include the Dandy-Lion and the cherry blossom latte! read more

Decent matcha. Good place to work. There are some tables with outlets on the side. Seating is somewhat limited but it's never been too crowded when I've gone on weekends read more

I got the avocado toast and the orange mocha drink. Both were fine. Service was great. Lots of seating so it looks like a great place to work out of and hang out. Lots of food options too, including several meatless options. read more

Good Karma Cafe is a small cafe inside the Wilma Theater. I happened to be seeing a show at the Wilma and waited in the line for a glass of sparkling wine and a bottle of water for the show. They also have a large menu of food and drinks. They get very busy before a show (so if you want a bite before a show, go early), but it also seems like a place people will sit and work or read while enjoying a coffee or lunch. Service was very friendly! read more

We came here for a quick breakfast. It was located down the street from our hotel. There seemed to be a good amount of college students and locals here. It was rush hour before work so mostly everyone was grabbing food to go. They had a decent breakfast menu. I ordered the Classic which came with scrambled egg, bacon, and cheddar cheese on an everything bagel. To drink I ordered an iced coffee. It came out quickly and we brought it to our table. The meal was underwhelming. The bagel was dry and not crispy at all. The egg was rubbery and felt as if it was reheated in the microwave. The coffee was not good and had a bitter after taste. For around $15 total I expected something a lot better. I would probably end up going to a Wawa next time I am in need of breakfast. read more

I really like this spot. Lots of options for seating and big windows that look out to Broad street. They have a board of seasonal specialty coffee drinks that are pretty good! They have some options for eating and sweet treats too. I like that it's connected to the Wilma Theater because it gives it a nice vibe. When I was here last, it was a cold and rainy day and was excited to order the Irish coffee but learned that the alcohol options are only sold when there is a show! Totally fine though, because I enjoyed my warm latte. If you are looking to hang for a bit this is a good spot with decent coffee and bites! read more

This is a good coffee shop to stop at if you're in the area- however it's very bare bones. I got a black cup of coffee and a cinnamon raisin bagel. The bagel was served with cream cheese, but they don't offer to toast the bagel, which is a bit odd. There is ample seating in this cafe and they have free WiFi read more

Pretty good coffee, ample seating, not much beyond though. Came by here for my daily caffeine fix. Servers were attentive, put in my order and was asked how strong I wanted it. Got a double shot of espresso and no flavors. There was plenty of seating and the seats themselves were comfy. The breakfast sandwich menu seemed extensive but the baked goods looked lacking. Got my coffee, was a little too bitter. Some sugar free sweetener helped a bunch though. It's good coffee, and a great spot for a respite. Overall nothing fantastic, but good enough read more

We walked to the end of the block our hotel was on to check out Good Karma Cafe. It is priced too high for what they are selling. Having said that, I know prices are high everywhere and staying in the food service industry is hard, hard, hard. I wore my six lb Chihuahua in her wrap into the cafe. No one said anything. They have ample seating inside and out. The cafe is located in the lobby of a theater. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on sour dough toast. But it was as dry as the desert. Nothing on the toast. I ordered an extra side of bacon. It was a good serving size, hot, and on its own plate. The bathrooms are very clean. The coffee is fine. If the sandwich had been buttered or margarined I would have given at least another Star. read more

We came into Philly to watch Stomp at the Miller Theater. As we walked towards the theater, I noticed this cafe and the welcoming, green colors, large open feeling as well as the offering of sandwiches. So when we arrived at the theater across the street before entry was permitted. I suggested we try this place out. We timed it well as others had the same idea. They have bagels, sourdough and multigrain bread on which to build any of their offerings. I enjoyed the Lox sandwich that came open faced. It was a good portion and good quality. The meal was prepared within 10 minutes from ordering or less. The cashier was also making the drinks which my companions confirmed were equally delicious. I would certainly return for this healthy, well-priced option in the theater area. It's inside the Wilma at Aurora. read more

They put way too much sugar in their lattes. We had a rose chai latte and coco loco and both drinks were like diabetes in a cup. I wish I had returned our drinks and asked for a redo. read more

Good karma got the good karma. Love how wide and clean the space is. The staff is always so nice and helpful. Grabbed a ice coffee and usually I only enjoy one place for my icy coffees but theirs wasn't half bad AND they had simple syrup. Idk, having to stir sugar granules at the bottom of my cup kills the vibe for me. Either way I'll def be back if I'm in the area and need a quick bite. read more

Great mid-day stop-off in our travels on our only day in Philly. I had the veggie delight vegan sandwich on sourdough - very fresh and as expected. My companions got the bagel and lox with an extra bagel and shared it. There was nice citrus water available. Service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is bright and open and clean. read more

Good Karma Cafe - Menu - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I ordered a 10 oz cappuccino with double shot. They said they can make it. When it came out it was their standard size. I asked for what I ordered. The barista tried to convince me it was all good. Then pretended to remake it. Barista removed some milk and put it back on the counter. A runner came in trying to use the bathroom during Broad street run. Barista would not give the bathroom code, said you need to purchase first. Bad karma. Stay away. read more

Cute place, really ass coffee. My flavored latte tastes like unflavored black coffee, I regret coming here but its a cute location.

My colleagues swear by this cafe. They go at least 3 times a week and always get bagels, coffee, and hot chocolate. I'm never hungry around the time they go and have usually reached my caffeine limit. However, I wanted to join in on the fun, so I got a Karma Chameleon smoothie. It was good! I've now gotten it a couple of times. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it though. Hoping to try something else soon and maybe stay and eat since the space is really nice. read more

Very nice staff. Great customer service. If your used to more cozy, intimate cafes, this is not it. But I saw that they are attached to a theatre and are conveniently located in the lobby for shows. Good prices, extremely pleasant service, though read more

Came here on the way home from a workout class. I was craving some post workout grub and it did not disappoint. There were lots of people studying as well so I definitely could study here in the future. They have decaf drip coffee which is always a plus for me. read more

Good Karma Cafe - Decaf drip coffee - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Like their clean environment & the mini Buddha statue! They're making the drinks & food on real time by two people so it took a bit longer to order. I ordered the iced Americano (the only decaf coffee they have in this cafe they said). It was a bit bitter but not having high acidity in their espresso shots! read more

Cinderella latte is my absolute favorite. The staff is very patient and informative in the coffee is just out of this world.! The ambience is laid-back. It's always full of people on laptops or chatting over coffee. one of my favorite places to have a hot drink on a cold day. read more

Perfect little haven from the snow on an early morning in Philadelphia. This power protein cup is exactly what I needed and a delicious coffee to complement. Nice service and a lovely, quite ambiance in an otherwise loud city. read more

This coffee spot is really spacious and has a lot of seating. The iced latte I got was delicious. The mocha flavor was so rich and the coffee was bold-- a great combination in my opinion. The baristas were friendly. This is a good spot to study since it had plenty of tables. However, it is also the lobby for a theatre, so it may get loud prior to the show/performance or during intermission. However, it's quiet during the show/performance itself. Overall a good spot to go for coffee and catching up on work. read more

Cute quiet little coffee shop with chill ambience and relaxed eating spaces. Food was perfect, made with quality ingredients and served fast. Coffee was flat out awesome. Staff were super friendly and responsive to allergy needs as well as knowledgeable about their menu items. New fave, will be back. read more

My mom and I attempted to go get some iced coffee from here after our brunch on Mother's Day. When we walked in coffee shop, we weren't spoken to and when I told the blonde haired woman with the wavy bob that I had never been here before she just stared at me and my mom told me we were leaving because no one is begging to spend their own money. Poor service. The vibe was bizarre and the woman was rude. read more

This is a cute yummy little breakfast spot hidden inside the Wilma Theater building. The cafe is an inviting space with the sweetest staff. The pastry and egg sandwiches are delicious and my vanilla latte is perfection. Perfect little place to meet a friend! read more

Good Karma Cafe - people sitting at tables in a coffee shop - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ample and elbow room in the large seating area. Bathrooms are large as well. Seems like management moved from old-organic plants to fake plants and a fake tree in the entrance. Sure okay. Not sure about getting another hot chocolate here. It was like warm, not worth the money nor the tip. read more

This is a cute place to get work done and a fun little coffee shop. I stopped in for breakfast and picked up the apple of my eye bagel. It was almost $8 and was a bagel with cream cheese and apple slices. The bagel was very good but there was an overwhelming amount of cream cheese. The staff was super nice and we got our food in a reasonable amount of time. read more

With a name like good karma cafe, you can't go wrong. The cafe is outside a theatre, and with ample seating space, and a roaring fire, it has nice ambiance. I ordered a delicious latte, my kids had the yoghurt with granola, and my husband had an expresso. We were all pleased. Also, coming from Montreal, it was nice to see the barista wearing a Habs hat! read more

Very cute, spacious spot with free Wifi! Perfect place to get some work done when it's too hot to function in your apartment during this heat wave. I didn't have high hopes for the Coffee Smoothie-I just wanted something with caffeine that was filling enough to last me for however many hours I needed to work, but it tasted delicious and didn't melt for hours, so I'd definitely get it again! Also shout out to whoever was in charge of the playlist at this location because I'm not sure if this was intentional, but every song was a bop and at the perfect bpm for working haha read more

I wasn't impressed by Good Karma at all. I ordered a flat white which was not good. It has a weird taste to it and I couldn't even finish it. I ordered a sandwich on GF bread and it had absolutely no flavor. I added hot sauce and salt to make it better but it was really lackluster. read more

The grilled chicken sandwich was so good. I spent the day in Philly and was able to still be productive working in the cafe. The music was great and they definitely passed the vibe check. read more

Food was good, coffee pretty good, staff were really nice. The outside seating was appreciated, but it would be great if there were some more solid planters creating more of a buffer against the Broad St. traffic. read more

Quick stop in here for coffee and to grab a sandwich before an afternoon show at the Meriam across the street. Went with the Colonel Mustard sandwich, which was tasty with a little kick to it. The menu was a little hard to read to understand all the drinks that they offered, but ordered a caramel latte, which was good. My son somehow managed to find a Nutella latte and I tried a sip of his...delicious! Glad we stopped in and certainly would come back. read more

When it's 6 am on a Monday morning in January, any coffee shop would seem appealing, but when the space is so bright and the employees are so friendly at that ungodly hour, it's hard not to keep returning here. A volunteer group I am a part of comes here every Monday morning after we are done. They also allow us to have our monthly meeting in here, which is very gracious. It's great to see local businesses supporting local groups! PS - their spicy ginger chai is awesome, and they have milk alternatives! read more

This is my to-go place to study. The place is very spacious and if you end at the bench area, there are outlets you can use. It wasn't too hard to get a table near an outlet. It does get crowded sometimes especially if there is a show since it's connected to the Wilma theatre. Likewise, it might get noisy. When there was no show, there was music playing in the background and light chatter. I just plugged my earphones and I couldn't hear anything. The food is not bad as well. I love their frappucino and their soups. I tried their pumpkin spice latte but it was a bit too bitter for my taste. Highly recommend for studying and food. read more

Good Karma Cafe - Avocado toast and smoked salmon bagel with 2 small black coffees - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This cafe is attached to the Wilma theatre, and it's very hip and beautiful when you first walk in! I ordered their soup of the day (chicken and meatballs), as well as their coffee and wasn't disappointed. It was relatively expensive, but the soup was very hearty and filling and quite delicious. There wasn't anything too special about their coffee, but I'll be back to try more of their food! read more

Good coffee and pleasurable environment. I used to often Good karma cafe in my grad school days of philly. Love the coffee and chill vibe of this place. Good for catching up with friends, working remotely or even dates. This location is pretty big and airy (inside the entrance hall of Wilma theater) Their specials (on chalk board) are good My recommendation- brown bear (pro tip - ask them use a little less caramel so as not to make it too sweet). Food-bakery products are okay. read more
