Oat Chai Latte
Sara R.

We stopped by La Colombe on Saturday afternoon to pick up a chai latte. It was raining, so we decided to enjoy our drinks inside. Upon entering, we were greeted and informed that the espresso machine wasn't working, so we couldn't order a hot chai latte... only iced. The drink itself was extremely sweet; I don't think I've ever had a chai THAT sweet. I think if I were to order it again, I'd probably ask for 25-30% less chai. The coffee shop has plenty of seating available, and it wasn't very busy for a Saturday afternoon. I love the décor, and if I lived nearby, I'd definitely come work at this coffee shop regularly!

S'mores Draft Latte
Karisa A.

La Colombe Fishtown is a go-to for coffee, conversation, or a casual work session! The space is massive with plenty of seating, and the rustic warehouse vibe adds to the charm. Service is always quick and friendly! I tried the seasonal S'mores Draft Latte--sweet, creamy, and indulgent--and the Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich, which was super tasty. The soft potato roll and aioli were a great touch! TL;DR: Spacious, stylish spot with great coffee and solid bites--perfect for working or catching up with friends.

Stopped in La Columbe for a cup of chai tea. The space is in an old brick building still has lots of the exposed brick. Lots of seating is available. You order at the counter. They call your name when your food is done and you can go and pick it up. I love that they have a water station with both still and sparkling water. The chai tea was very good. It had good flavor with some warming spice to it. The milk was frothy. I love that the tea is served in a real cup not paper. My friend had the yogurt parfait which she really liked. It had a good ratio of yogurt, fruit, and granola.

A cute and spacious coffee spot! My new favorite place to hang out on the weekends. The draft lattes are simply delicious, but the flat white is my go-to drink for the winter.

Latte and cappuccino
Rachel K.

We were extremely impressed with the coffee and food at La Colombe. The hot latte and cappuccino were both very tasty. Strong coffee flavor with good amount of foam. The Egg and cheese sandwich was surprisingly delicious. I usually have low expectations for egg cheese sandwiches but this one was great! There was a sauce that made this sandwich really good. Southwest Mayo I think. Anyway I highly recommend. The ham and cheese croissant was also really great. Extremely crispy and had a wonderful rosemary flavor. The interior was large and spacious with plenty of seating. Although it was busy on a Saturday morning, it was well worth the stop.

Breakfast grits
Aisha F.

Not a coffee girlie (of any variety, hate the taste), so I didn't think I'd be patronizing this place on a Saturday morning. I saw my friends' ordering really yummy food and opted for the breakfast grits (after being convinced by the woman taking my order. She said she has to stop herself from eating it every shift.) BABY. That thing was delicious! Tomatoesc bacon, spinach, fried egg, and the grits themselves were made deliciously. La Colombe's ambiance was super cute as well. Such a big space, love the decor and vibe. Definitely coming back to work from here.

Iced strawberry oat matcha latte + ham & cheese croissant
Christina C.

La Colombe in Fishtown is such a great spot to grab a coffee and relax. The space is large with plenty of seating, making it a comfortable place to sit and enjoy your drink without feeling cramped. I ordered an iced oat strawberry matcha and their ham croissant, both of which were delicious! The matcha had a nice balance of earthiness and sweetness from the strawberry, and the oat milk made it super smooth. The ham croissant was flaky, buttery, and perfectly savory--definitely a great choice. My boyfriend got a decaf strawberry cortado with oat milk and the gluten-free mudslide cookie. He really enjoyed both, and I had a bite of the cookie--rich, chocolatey, and so satisfying.

OG La Colombe had been on my bucket list for a long time now, and my expectations were beyond met! I asked the barista to choose a pour over for me based on my tastes, and she gave me a super delicious coffee, so don't be shy and just ask them about what they know the most, which is coffee!! I purchased a few bags of beans and even some of the cute merch they have. One of my favorite spots I got to visit in Philly. Love La Colombe!

Random assortment from TooGoodToGo
Stan H.

Staff asked me if I was vegetarian or not and gave me bread options for my TooGoodToGo. Totally unexpected and super nice. I thought based on the amount of spacing in the area that this would be a small coffee shop. It was a bit bigger than expected with the high ceilings from what was probably formerly a warehouse. A bit of a bigger kitchen and cafe area to be able to sell food and not just run of the mill goodies only. La Colombe has coffee that locals like. I should've realized it was a chain beforehand with the cans I see in the supermarket, but I will drink local or (more) mainstream. What more can you ask for?

Cold brew with almond milk
Ivan Lawrence A.

Food Coming from california, been a fan of their canned lattes for a while so I'm glad to have finally visited one of their locations in Philadelphia. I was first amused by the fact that they have coffees on draft and it was interesting to see. I got the draft cold brew and I asked for almond milk. They served the cold brew to me and gave me the carton of almond milk so I'm glad i was able to control how much i wanted. The coffee itself was really good. Nice deep flavor without being too bitter and overpowering. I went to this place 2 days in a row and both days were pretty good, so i'm glad to see consistency. Service/Ambiance The vibe of the place gives off like rustic brewery but with coffee. The staff are really nice and i get my order pretty quick.

Large draft vanilla oat latte
Colleen M.

This location offers so many more options than the location at 6th & Market. I've tried some of the food options and have been impressed - both the slightly premade (like the egg sandwich + bacon) and the assembled sandwiches (ham & butter is a surprisingly delicious treat). They also have a little cold case that offers some of their canned beverages, along with juices and other drinks & snacks. Everyone I've encountered working there is friendly and helpful. I look forward to trying more.

La Colombe Coffee is a chain, so I avoided this one for the longest time. However, when I actually visited, I realized that it was a triple threat: a cafe with good food, drinks, and space. La Colombe rotates the items in its menu with different coffee specials. The cashier let me try one drip coffee and even the oatmilk draft, which I ended up getting because of slightly sweet and creamy taste. You can ask to try anything on tap, so highly recommend doing that if you want to try before you buy. Super friendly and helpful service. I got the chocolate frosted donut, which was more moist than expected. Imagine like a sponge with more weight. I also tried the caneles back in NYC at one point and those were good too. The food is about as good as the other trendy cafes around Fishtown. La Colombe is also a calm, convenient place to work. Industrial vibes (pipes and wood) and pretty art. There are a couple of outlets, though there aren't as much as I'd like. Keep in mind the outlets might be occupied at the busiest times. Anyway, go here, don't care if it's a chain.

Took myself on a Fishtown adventure day primarily to visit this flagship La Colombe location and it did not disappoint! The exposed interior is truly stunning and well thought out, with tons of convenient seating for groups, dates, and solo workers alike. I went with an oat milk latte on draft as recommended by a number of friends, and it absolutely hit the spot and fueled the rest of my day. The line here moves really fast, and I appreciate that you can grab beans (they have their full line out) on your way up to the counter. I am a sucker for their Nizza roast in my drip coffee maker at home, but coming to their locations is an extra special treat. Bathrooms are also beautiful here and the staff is super friendly. Looking forward to the next time I get to visit!

Why can't a change me fried egg to a scrambled egg for the sausage hash? Are the eggs not made to order? Seems simple enough.

Stopped by for an hour of work on a relatively quiet afternoon. This is a small shop given the…read morearea, but with a surprising amount of seating given that the kitchen takes up a considerably small footprint. I ordered a green iced tea which was delicious, and then sat and worked. Wi-fi is solid here, and the outlets are plentiful. I especially like having seats with backs and sizable tables at the right height... when you're working from cafes the small details make a difference. Even though the espresso machine was down, the staff were still friendly and pretty calm about the whole ordeal (although some customers were not). Appreciate a friend face, a quiet space to work, and a nice vibe to relax in for the day. Will stop by again when I'm in Old City!

The sandwiches were tasty, although the bread was a bit too crispy. I usually love crispy bread, but this was very, very crispy and slightly overdone for my preference. The biggest disappointment was the egg -- it had that pre-made/frozen egg texture and appearance, which I didn't expect from this type of establishment. Overall, I'd still return for the coffee and the cute atmosphere.

About two blocks away we opened the door to such a great aroma and we were greeted warmly by one of the very nice ladies...seemed like the manager. We ordered a Cappuccino with an extra shot of espresso a cafe au lait. Server was super friendly and our drinks came out quickly. Reasonably priced (less than $10 for two mediums). I'm not from Philly so I'm sure I'd never be here again, but it's a really cute shop with seating adjacent to the ordering area and a nice vibe.

I've been into black Americanos with a little honey recently? A winter thing? Idk I've never been like this before. But I enjoyed this one. I put in my own honey at the self serve station. This station is where a line naturally forms, so I'd be aware of this as I see this could be stressful for the baristas went taking/handing out orders. The matcha was smooth, a little overpowered by whatever syrup you add to it. They told me they batch make the matcha with vanilla syrup that cannot be taken out. So any add ons is too much in my opinion. The color was a good deep shade of green though. I prefer having this problem with my matcha over only being able to taste milk. A problem I've had with so many other coffee shops. Syrups are made in house!
