Nice neighborhood coffee shop. Fast service. Delicious matcha. Great WFH space as there was ample (indoor and outdoor) seating available. read more

Hive Café - Matcha with oat milk - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Hive is the best! The service is usually great, it's so cute inside and out, the plants create a nice environment and they have local art on display. I always get an iced matcha and vegan BLT, which adds us to around $13.50 and is totally worth it. read more

Elijah will make your whole week. The sandwiches are inventive and delicious. Vibes are excellent and I love going there. Coffee drinks are good, regular coffee is unreliable but I don't even mind. Owners are really great people and very responsive to feedback. Love the art, especially the kids' art show! read more

The staff was friendly and helpful about ingredients etc. my pb banana smoothie was amazing. My egg and cheese sandwich was on a multigrain bread and it was delicious and hot ! The atmosphere had a relaxing effect on my weekday morning, people were friendly and respectful. I read more

idk what's different but the caramel iced coffee from here was the best I've had in Philly! They also recommended the shishito breakfast sandwich was amazing! read more

Great looking place. The bagels were not good. The coffee was shite. But a cute place for sure. read more

Hive Café - Chai tea latte-tasty! - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Stopped at Hive to grab some breakfast before a long day of walking the sites. I ordered a breakfast sandwhich, and was very impressed with the flavors. Also got an iced, honey, lavender latte, which was refreshing and tasty. The atmosphere is fun and the service is friendly Would recommended! read more

Always delicious and fresh! Cute and friendly vibe. Lots of sweet doggo's coming by too. read more

I will caveat that this review is completely dependent on the vibes set by Elijah. What a spectacular spot. What a sweet weekend treat. I've done and dusted the must hung over Sunday buns and waddled a workday Wednesday grumpus to this spot and man oh man it sends me every time. My guy with the sandwiches in the back rocks it. The coffee is tastie. And most of all, the service is tremendous. Eating and drinking at Hive feels like being swaddled by a large puma who loves you and wants you to have the best things in life. The vibes are immaculate and the plants in the windows are extremely friendly. Slather some of that chipotle aioli on my chest and let's go have a good time at Hive! I've looked into the chasm of despair. I've known the pain of kissing a goat in a bad way. I've seen pain in the eyes of toddlers when I howl at them. This place makes me feel none of these things. None. 5 stars. read more

Service was great and food was okay. I placed my order online with ease, but was very disappointed with my coffee. Seemed like a very nice place on the inside and worker was attentive, but not the place for me. read more

mixed feelings on this place- the interior is so cute, i love all the plants and windows. the baristas were super sweet too. but the coffee and food were very mediocre. i got an oat milk latte which was very disappointing. i also got a tomato mozz bagel sandwhich, and the bagel didn't seem very fresh. i really wanted to love this place because it had great vibes and seemed like an awesome place to remotely work, but with so many other great coffee places nearby, i don't see myself returning read more

I love Hive! It's a gem of a local spot with friendly staff and many drink options to choose from.

I just ordered a couple bagels and an iced chai tea to pick up. The chai is great. Five stars if that was the end... I get why the bagels are only a dollar. They were not good /: Maybe stale? I can't tell. The one I had them put cream cheese on also had a nice hair in it... that I discovered after I had started eating it. I don't know y'all. I wanted to like this place because it is soooo close to my house. read more

I don't wanna be overly critical but didn't feel the love from the staff. It was a awkward experience. Coffee and other goodies are okay. Place have plenty of sitting area. I really liked the set up and those natural wooden table and chairs. I will give them another try if I am around the neighborhood. And revisit this review. read more

Let us order food that they didn't have in stock. Got there and they told us there was no bacon on the sandwiches, which is annoying. They saod they called but that is a lie, no missed calls from them at all. Get home and look in the bag...no sandwiches at all. Never coming back. read more

This is formerly Benna's West, now under new name, very similar to the previous establishment. Whether "Hive" or "Benna's" I was impressed. One change under current management is that they dropped the baguette sandwiches, and offer instead an excellent multigrain bread. Also bagels of course. Great windows onto south Broad, high ceiling, very comfortable space. They only had one plain bagel left when I got there for a late lunch, so I went with the whole grain bread for the mozzarella/basil sandwich. Excellent! I've been back since, had the same excellent experience. The coffee is great, and staff very friendly. My new fav place to grab a coffee or quick bite in the old 'hood. Coffee comes with refill, whoa now you are talking. read more

The review is for the pop tarts made by Freedom Pies. I picked s'mores and peanut butter. Great crispy crust. A lot of fillings, not too sweet read more

Not only do they have delicious coffee, pastries (vegan I may add) and meals, but their staff is some of the friendliest and kindest around in this neighborhood The baristas Nora and Conrad are my girls. Always welcoming me with a friendly face and executing my order efficiently and perfectly every time. When it comes to coffee, please try their hand made syrups (lavender, cardamom, pumpkin), their pastries (tahini made chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, gluten free pop tarts, banana bread, Bundt cakes, bread pudding) and their sweet potato HASH (spicy and savory...left my mouth watering for more). Please also take a look at the local art work. Support local business and local artists. And the warm hearted people working in this cafe. read more

I just moved in up the block and wanted to check this place out! Coffee is great, food is pretty good but the people that work here are so nice and smiley! Such a pleasant experience and their happiness is contagious read more

Most importantly, the coffee I got here was delicious. They serve ReAnimator beans which I have also found quite satisfying in their named location. The ambience here is top tier coffee shop ambience. There are contemporary stylings, lots of window (uncluttered by posters) and window seating, and the menu is easily located and followed. Hive is a pretty nice coffee shop. read more

Great spot for a quick snax and good coffee ... checks every box. Sun filled space with gorgeous plants and local artists up on the walls. Pitstop here on my way home to meet up with friends or sometimes for a lil study time when I can't focus at my studio. Everyone is so nice... love this place! read more

I have passed this little cafe half a dozen times and can walk here from my work so I finally gave it a try. I had the chai tea latte which was probably the best one I've ever had. I also had the avocado, tomato, bacon, and cream cheese on an everything bagel--so delicious. The staff was also very friendly. The online ordering/ pick up is also very convenient. read more

I live in S Philly, and after spending the duration of the stay-at-home in Conshohocken, Hive was one of the things I missed most. Finally got to go back today to find that they've been handling takeout orders like champs! Easy to order online and pick up, the food/drinks are amazing, and they have just about the nicest staff you could ask for. Highly recommend! read more

Great place to meet a friend for coffee, get some work done, or just sit and relax. Friendly staff and good coffee. Their bagels are really good! read more

Had a pretty good breakfast sandwich on gluten feee bread. The tempeh bacon was good. I thought it was a bit on the expensive side, but I'd probably still go back sometime. read more

How is this place even doing business? Staff is so rude and unwelcoming. Definitely won't be back again!

People that work there are always nice. Bagels suck tho. Please get better bagels. Pleaseeeeee. Great spot for all you rich mfers from out of town. No complaints besides that I'm not a rich mfer from out of town and I'm bitter about it. There's a corner store down the block on 15th with good coffee for a $1 :) read more

Prior to my experience here on Saturday afternoon, I had been a regular customer at hive as I live in the neighborhood. However, I was treated so rudely by the barista . I ordered two lattes, one with skim milk. When my name was called I inquired as to which one was skim and the girl rolled her eyes saying well I didn't know any of them were supposed to be skim as she, clearly irritated now, dumped out the latte. She then said "skim latte coming right up" in a condescending tone. Then once was latte was ready she slammed the cup down without saying a word just looked in my direction so I wasn't even sure that it was for me. The girl who took my order even apologized to her and explained that it was her mistake, but it didn't make the barista any friendlier. Overall, I felt like I was inconveniencing her for expecting to receive was I ordered and ultimately paid for. read more

Erstes mal bei Hive Café in Philadelphia: Ich muss sagen dass, zuerst hätte ich ein bisschen angst weil, "Hive" erinnert mich an Bienen und ich bin leider tödlich allergisch. Zum Glück- keine Bienen, nur Kaffee und Kuchen! Die Frau die Gestern da gearbeitet war schnell mit der Espressomaschine und mein Cappuccino war sehr lecker aber keine Latte Art. Das hätte ich total süß gefunden aber niemand ist Perfekt. Auch über die Frau, obwohl sie keine haare hatte, war sie sehr nett. Also ich kann Das Hive Café an alle empfehlen! read more

The service here is inexplicably slow. I like the location and their food is fine but waited for 20 minutes for 2 to-go bagels on a day when it wasn't particularly crowded. If I'd known it would take so long I would've skipped it. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. read more

An instant favorite since I moved to the neighborhood last year. I'm here often for iced latte's, and I'm routinely tempted by the pastries on offer. Muffins and cookies are excellent and I'm especially a fan of the vegan Hello donuts they get on the weekends. read more

The food is really good. I was especially a fan of the Cheddar Cauliflower Hashbrown. The vibe is cool and the service overall was pretty good. I thought it was a little odd they only had plastic forks and knives. Reanimator coffee is also served and that's always a win! read more

Checked out this neighborhood coffee and cafe shop. Welcoming team managing the front and back offices. Clean and tidy work spaces and facilities. Coffee reasonably priced. Other selections also available to keep fingers on the keyboard busy, or just time to read. Outside seating in good weather, nice space, on day we visited, for legacy newspaper readers, who were also trying to learn two-handed smart phone techniques. Productive day. Concluded with the chicken and grape salad on a fresh English muffin. Nutritious and fulfilling. Delish! Recommended. read more

This place sucks. Honestly, the staff was super rude and it took forever to get my one item I ordered.

Hive is my new favorite coffee shop. large, sunny space with lots of windows to people watch. Sometimes you get to pet a dog from a person making a quick stop in, dogs are welcome ! I have had the breakfast sandwiches on gluten free bread and it's great. Bagel sandwiches are also filling. I tried the chili with cornbread and it was perfect. Staff has always been very friendly and patient . A pleasant place to go on a lazy Sunday. read more

Sooo good! Amazing cafe/coffee spot right on south broad. Great reanimator coffee, super good sandwiches and baked goods, and incredibly welcoming and cool staff. Def gonna stop by anytime I'm local! read more

Good spot for work: wifi, good music, plugs, coffee, and great atmosphere.

Bagel was great, cream cheese was too sparse. Only on one side! Not cool.
