I tried a few drinks here and was pleasantly surprised by how unique and well-balanced they were:…read more Matcha White Champaca Salted Cheese - Starts with a light matcha bitterness, then transitions into a subtle floral camellia note. Refreshing with nice layers. Jasmine Mango smoothie - Sweet mango paired with pomelo bits and a hint of jasmine tea. Super refreshing and not overly sugary--perfect after a meal or on a hot day. Premium Jasmine Apple Milk Tea - Tastes like a cold-brew tea mixed with green apple juice. Very crisp and refreshing, slightly ing apple candy in a fun way. Great if you're not into milky drinks. Jasmine Tea - A pure tea option with a clean jasmine aroma. Smooth, not bitter, and gets better as you sip. Pairs really well with heavier or savory foods.

I happened to be in the area of the 3400 block of Sansom Street today in West Philadelphia and a…read morefamiliar sign caught my eye from 22 years ago; Avril 50. Avril 50 was a regular stop in my patrol days and I loved walking into the shop. Always the wonderful aroma of brewing coffees and chocolate dancing with other exotic smells and the smells of fine papers and magazines. It always felt to me like stepping from West Philadelphia into a magical pocket of Europe. As it looked exactly the same, I wondered if anything had changed in the past 22 years and as soon as I crossed the threshold, I found that it was the same - like stepping back 22 years, yet somehow I was that much older. The proprietor was still there, still the same and looking no different - something that confirmed my belief that this was a magical and wonderful pocket paradise tucked away on a small West Philadelphia street. A brief catch-up chat, a shopping bag of fine teas and a perfectly brewed double-espresso to takeaway later; I stepped back into the bright Fall sun of West Philadelphia. I found myself smiling as I sipped the espresso, happy that one of the best things for me in that neighborhood has remained unchanged for others to enjoy and to continue to discover. It will not be another 22 years before I make my way back - that is for certain.

Interesting little shop. My sister's boyfriend took us here when we mentioned we needed coffee and…read moreI was a little perplexed when I walked in. I'm still not entirely sure what the shop is supposed to be but it was an experience going there for sure. The coffee is self serve and there are several different selections, each with a short description up on the wall. My boyfriend and I each got a medium (I believe it was $2.25 per) and loved our coffee. Both were tasty and exceptionally strong. I'm not sure if they do anything fancier (lattés, etc) but I doubt it. Nonetheless, if I were a student at penn and needed a coffee this is where I would go.

For a place that tries to split both restaurant, cafe, and even board game restaurant, they do all of it fairly well. Cafe downstairs serves pretty good coffee, and usually has a seat available. There are definitely moments, such as weekend afternoons, when you should be prepared to packed in while working, but otherwise, this is usually a pleasant working environment. On the whole, they've got frequent visitor rewards and stamp card benefits, so if you make a habit out of visiting, you may eventually be rewarded for it with some kind of free drink or otherwise. Wi-fi is solid, and there are plenty of outlets to go around if you get a seat along the windows. Nice thing about this place too is that they're open pretty late for U-City, although they've got competition with all the Yemeni coffee shops popping up.

Not the biggest fan of these paid gaming places but this might be the best I've gone to so far -- Stayed a while and I think they undercharged our group so appreciate the affordability and understanding, not trying to MEV.

A lot of spaces for working, with a lot of good conversations happening in the background to provide some filler white noise, if that's your cup of tea. Also not too loud in case you want to throw on some noise cancelling headphones and lock in. Service is fast! I usually order the drip and a sweet waffle, but twoday I went savory with a BEC, and it was awesome! The distinguishing thing here is waffles, and they do it in a ton of varieties extremely well, even to-go! Wi-fi is good here to boot, so I'm not sure if I have any knocks on this place... perhaps that it closes too early?

Ambience was nice, and not too much noise or background disturbances. There's generally a lot of seating here, with ample outlets. I've visited previous times where there hasn't been a lot of free space because this is a student hotspot for nearby Drexel and UPenn. But that's honestly no fault to the cafe itself-- they are pretty much maxing out space without beginning to feel too cluttered and sacrificing the "vibe". Ordered a drip and a English muffin breakfast sandwich. One of my friends also completed the "Google review for a cookie" deal, and we enjoyed a piping hot freshly baked cookie! Overall I'd definitely consider this a place to meet up, or lock in while studying. Just make sure to consider the time of day and time of year academically, as this is a popular student spot.

The take-out counter is right inside the entrance, and it's a bit tight when there are a lot of people. The line was short though and moved quickly, and the barista who took my order was pleasant. I ordered an Iced Biscolatte and then tried to find a place to stand where I didn't feel like I was in the way or crowding the people at nearby tables, which was a challenge. Be prepared to have to move around out of the way of people coming and going and possibly get bumped into as you wait for your order. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly my order was ready though based on how busy the cafe was, and I was on my way in less than five minutes after I'd ordered. And the Iced Biscolatte was definitely worth dealing with the crowd! It was delicious! I'll definitely be returning to order it again. It was smooth and creamy and very sweet (and I love a very sweet, dessert-like coffee drink). They also had some delicious looking pastries in the bakery case, so I'm looking forward to trying those on a return visit.

Amazing student-run coffee shop!…read more WilCaf is an amazing place to drop by, for Penn student/staff or just visitors. They have a great selection of standard coffee drinks, milk options, as well as extra flavorings to add. There's also a fun drink of the week that plays around with unique flavors and combos. Sometimes the drinks are too sweet/not sweet enough/etc. however, and I would appreciate more consistency. Overall good though. Wish there was more seating in the area because it's always crowded! Prices are decent as well. Go-to on campus for sure.
