A short walk from the 2nd St train stop for the best matcha I've ever had! They give you the option to add syrup but my favorite part is that they also leave the simple syrup and honey syrup out for customers to add as they please for any drinks that could use more sweetening! Also had the breakfast hand pie but it tasted like very strong horseradish (not listed). Overall 4/5! read more

Lorettas - Iced Matcha Latte w/ Vanilla Syrup - Cafes Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Agree with Dyamond! Waaaaay over priced. 5 people - coffees and sandwiches = $130!! Nowhere to sit, sandwich was a total slop mess- and it took 45 minutes for food to come out. Lots of talk about aesthetics, but a "cute" place doesn't have me coming back for this poor quality, long wait times and high prices. read more

I came after all the hype of this place on social media. Went on a Saturday morning around 10 and it wasn't busy. Yummy blueberry pie latte! It tasted almost like jam in a latte. The crumble was salty and buttery on top. I think I will not be a regular though bc $9 for a latte (even if it's specialty and with oatmilk) is too much for me in this economy. Super cute and cozy vibes inside and outside. Staff is also very nice. I think this place deserves a solid 3.6/5 mostly bc I'm not sure the product could justify the price read more

Very cute and friendly shop. Coffee was perfectly strong and flavored. Chai vanilla latte had a unique and potent aroma and taste. Would 100% recommend and will be returning myself to try the new monthly flavored coffees. read more

Super super cute coffee shop that allows dogs inside. Cinnamon roll was great with what seemed to be cream cheese style icing (yum). Staff was very friendly. read more

I have to preface this by saying it's still a very new spot and people are just excited to be there. As a result, the line was long and so was the wait time. The space is cramped but I can see the vibe being really good once the hype has died down. I got one of their sandwiches and I really enjoyed the flavor profile! It was a good blend of umami, savory, and bite! I want to return and sit inside. read more

I was definitely excited to try! The special drink right now was a black raspberry latte with tahini cold foam and sprinkles. I was a little disappointed to not be able to get regular cold foam instead of the tahini but still gave it a try - nice they had a special drink with a donation to a cause. I liked the raspberry flavor, but I'm just not a fan of tahini. I think the shop was decorated very cute. Service was good and pretty efficient. read more

I've loved Bloomsday forever so this sister spot right next door is a welcome addition to the Headhouse rotation. The space is bright and beautiful, but you can't beat the outdoor seating on a nice day. 5 stars for the pastries and beverages, but I would not return for the egg sandwich. Egg "patty" left a lot to be desired and this thing is really tricky to eat. The pastries tho...WOW. Incredible sea salt chocolate chip cookie and I love their take on the cosmic brownie. They do often sell out so going early if there's something specific you're looking for is advisable. On the pricier side but worth it for the quality. I'll be back when I am in the neighborhood! read more

Their pastries are to die for! The cinnamon roll and white chocolate pistachio danish were absolutely phenomenal - its been a few weeks but I still think about them. I live super close to them and worried it might be a little too dangerous for my health lol. Super popular and they sell out their most famous pastries quickly - better to go as early as possible. The pastry line moves quickly but I have seen people waiting for the drinks for quite a while so I don't intend to try their lattes during crowded hours. Their outside area is very pretty and would love to sit and enjoy the pastries when the weather is nice. read more

I have always previously have only gotten pastries and coffee. Today I tried one of their sandwiches. I got the Gloria. It was so delicious. I think I have a new obsession. read more

super cute quirky little coffee shop right next to headhouse square! it's easy to spot the distinct blue and red exterior from down the street, and it's just as cute inside as out! the cafe is pretty small, limited seating, but turnover is fairly fast. my friend and i were able to grab a table without much issue. i ordered the steel magnolia specialty drink as well as the ethel sandwich. i really loved the steel magnolia, it tastes just as good as it looks! the earl grey lavendar syrup was unique and delicious, and the salted honey whip was light and added a touch of sweetness. this might be one of my new favorite coffees in philly, i hope it sticks around even after women's history month is over. the ethel sandwich was a little pricey for it was, but satisfying and tasty. overall, had a great experience. staff were friendly, and the drink was stellar! read more

Don't be scared of the lines they move quick! I feel like this place was super efficient. Didn't have to wait long at all for my drink either. Got two of the pastries which were really good. I got the no scrubs seasonal latte and it was also good and not sweet at all. Quite on the pricey end though. Looks like they use rival bros beans which I love. read more

Loretta's is perfect for a cold, rainy day. It's a cute little cafe with a few tables (first come, first serve). I tried their Mocha latte, which wasn't overly sweet and warmed us up as we headed to Headhouse Market. We tried their Ham and Cheese croissant and Cheese & Greens hand pie. Both were delicious, but the cheese & greens was our favorite! The staff was super nice and welcoming. Will definitely come back next time we're in the neighborhood. read more

The salted maple latte is to die for!! I went two days in a row when I was in town because it was that good. Their pastry variety also looked fantastic, the fluffernutter was super unique and delicious. We also tried the cherry pop tart and the beef stew turnover and both were great as well. It's super cute inside but seating is limited. read more

I have very little respect for "coffee shops" that supply other people's coffee's have enough respect to find your own roaster if you're opening a coffee shop. The coffee was fine. I got a breakfast sandwich and it had condiments on it. Don't try to change my typical breakfast sandwhich and have the decency to write it on the board if it has a condiment on it. What if I was allergic??? The pastry was good but you could've just supplied a local coffee shop if you were going to use the same coffee as rival. The service was nice which I appreciate but ultimately I don't get the hype surrounding this place. read more

Just updating to say that Loretta's remains a favorite. I've been back many times, and they never disappoint. read more

The vibe of this coffee shop is so adorable and is also in the most quaint location! The ambiance is definitely what drew me in to try it both inside and out. They had a dog treat for my dog which was such a cute surprise! The ham and cheese croissants are the only pastries I've tried so far, but my fiancé and I both enjoyed them! I was also impressed with their matcha quality I really liked the taste. read more

Cutest Bakery and the staff is so friendly. We tried the black and white cookie and let me tell you it beats any NYC black and white cookie I have had. Also had the apple crumble galette which was delicious great flavors and not overwhelming with sugar. Can't wait to come back read more

I was visiting Philly and was on the HUNT for good coffee/matcha places. I saw Loretta's recommended and had to go! The shop is adorable. I love both the interior and exterior. It makes for great pictures. It was pretty busy but the line went fast and it didn't take a super long time to get our drinks. I was told that my friend was having a really hard time finding a place around her that had really good matcha. From what I saw, most places were using premade matcha and not whisking it on the spot. When I saw Lorettas was hand mixing their matcha, I had to try. I got their brown butter sage syrup in an iced matcha. The syrup was delicious but I wish the matcha would've been stronger. Either way, I downed it. My friend told them it was her birthday and they made her a hibiscus green tea drink with little edible glitter on top and it was great. The staff was extremely friendly and I would go back! read more

This place has a LOT of hype and honestly it's a cute bakery with good coffee and decent pastries. The cosmic brownie took me back to being a little kid in the playground at recess eating my Little Debbie brownie. I also quite enjoyed their pop tart with apple filling however, there was a little too much crust to feel nostalgic. Some of the other pastries acquired looked good but they do a honey good wash which means I couldn't give them a try. Too bad! read more

Most friendly local feel coffee shop! Yummy monthly specials and super cute merch. Location is very pretty

I really can't stop coming back here. The sheer coolness of this place paired with super friendly staff and fantastic coffee is everything that I'm looking for in a local haunt. I love the seasonal option, currently, blueberry thyme, and the regularly available salted maple in my lattes while I sit down with their free wifi to do some work. The sweet and savory pastry as well as sandwich options are wonderful; my favorite being the hot dog croissant. I will continue to frequent this spot for as long as I can! read more

If I could give zero stars, I absolutely would. This place sucks. I waited twenty minutes for the wrong sandwich AND the wrong drink. They offered to remake the drink, I declined because I just wanted to leave. Then I got my sandwich only for it to be EXTRA cheese when I asked for no cheese and it wasn't even the Betty, like I ordered. I would never recommend this place to anyone. I would've included the sandwich in the picture too, but I opened it and tossed it into the trash where it belonged. I was optimistic about this place because the pictures looked amazing, but it was insanely disappointing. read more

Fantastic coffee and I'm still thinking about my breakfast sandwich. It had banana peppers and pimento cheese!!! Small spot, but during the week I was able to get a seat and read my book. Service is quick and so friendly. Can't wait to come back. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. On top of there being rude workers, the coffee and pastries are very very overpriced. This place was a huge disappointment, and I can't state this enough. The person at the counter (lady with a black bob and glasses) was rude and gave me my drink with an attitude despite me being nice (like if you hate your job don't work there??) and couldn't even bother putting on a lid, and proceeded to be passive aggressive throughout the encounter. Also they have a "rule" that they don't add cold foam to drinks that aren't the special of the month. So you will literally spend nearly $9 on a very small latte that tastes subpar and burnt, and don't even have the option to add something that could make it taste better. read more

Great spot to hand out solo or bring a friend! It's very cute inside with a handful of small tables. I tried a few pastries and they were delicious! The employee behind the counter gave me some good recommendations since I was feeling a bit indecisive. Can't wait to try lunch next time! read more

Went an got a one bagel with cream cheese two flavored lattes, a donut and a breakfast sandwich the total was 40.50. Very pricey. The donut was 4.50 alone. Also was a $1 for getting coffee iced instead of hot... I don't think costumers should have to pay extra for things like that. Super was very quick. The sauce on the sandwich was good but the egg was the premade kind very thick and didn't taste like much. The inside was asethically pleasing and had some trinkets you could buy. The place is very small and only has about 8 or so seats inside. The tables can get pretty messy and you have clean them before sitting. I don't think I'd come again. Too expensive for the quality of the food and drinks. read more

Pastries were very good, especially when asked to warm them up. Coffee was amazing. James and other baristas were very funny, helpful, and kind. The mugs and plates are very aesthetic, same with the indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Great pastries, below-average drinks. Unfortunately, the baristas' casual antisemitism soured the experience entirely.

Best coffee in the Society Hill area! Hands down! Great staff (awesome staff:), great ambiance, great music.... and did I say great espresso? Hand pressed, and a really good blend of beans. The pastries and sandwiches are quite popular. It's only been open for less than a year, but it's already a fixture in Society Hill. read more

I went just for an afternoon coffee and thoroughly enjoyed it! The place is adorable and has such a cute vibe. My latte was really good! The barista was super sweet as well! The only thing is that I wish they had more lactose free milk options, as I do not like oat milk. But overall loved it! read more
