    Gunsmoke (half already gone)
    Julie W.

    Kind, helpful staff in a cute space with such a nice ambiance next to the train tracks. I ordered the Gunsmoke which is turkey, Gouda, roasted red peppers, jalapeño and aioli. It sounded like a fun take on a sandwich. Originally I wanted to get the caprese panini, but a sandwich with no meat would make my spouse sad (we share two) so... here we are. It was light and satisfying, but I would probably pick the caprese next time. Sourdough is great! Would be a nice place for having lunch with kids who like trains and want to watch the tracks

    Gelato and coffee on the train tracks
    Angela D.

    Loved every bit of this place. Nice staff and such charm. Coffee and ice cream: what could be better? It's in an old train station so that's pretty cool. They have sweet snacks, gelato and hot or cold coffees. Restrooms were clean, ample seating inside and out, and prices were reasonable. A win in my book!

    Panini and iced tea
    Andrea S.

    This is a great little cafe that sells lots of local goodies. I got iced tea and a panini and they were decently priced and delicious. I sat at a nice table with a view of the train tracks and did some work. I'll be back next time I'm out that way!

    Frond door

    I live for this place. I go out of my way almost every day to get my little coffee treat here because they have quite literally the best cold brew around. The vibes are so great during every season and they also have delicious seasonal menus. The baristas are the nicest people ever and it's conveniently located with the train station. Love love love this place!

    Chocolate Gelato

    I love this place! Their flavors are constantly changing so you never know what you'll like but they let you sample the flavors if you want. I always go with the dark chocolate flavor!

    Inside is surprisingly larger than I thought based on previous pics. Actually super cute and you just walk out and are on the Wayne platform for septa. They even have a little clock telling you the train times and if they're late! I got my usual London fog but they had a surprising amount of options. It was quite quiet, probably a good place for working/studying. I like the atmosphere. Staff were friendly!

    The cafe is in the old station building.

    Love coming here with the kids. We hop on the train, which is always fun for them, and the cafe is right in the Wayne SEPTA station. We typically grab gelatos or some light baked goods/sweets and watch the trains come and go. It's also just off the main drag, so you can walk around before catching the train home. The staff is also friendly to the kids and the location is quaint and makes great use of the old station building.

    A very nice place, with very good coffee, delicious gelato ice cream, and excellent service by Brooke. One of the most beautiful and oldest place in Philadelphia next to the Wayne train station, which was built in 1882.

    Butter cookie latte
    Anita S.

    Great service on Easter morning. We went there after church to relax before everyone split up to travel. They make a true Cortado and my son thought it was delicious. I had the butter cookie latte which had the right amount of sweetness. You can get the chai latte sweetened or unsweetened which is perfect for those who want to customize.

    The employees were extremely rude and followed us to the back of the cafe. Would not recommend.

    Super cute cafe with very good food…read more Parking in the back is very easy. My husband got cold brew and I did the lavender yuzu mocktail, both were good. I ordered the Lafayette on a baguette and he ordered the Parisian. The sandwiches were massive and also came with salad, neither of us could finish. They were very very good. The bread was perfect. Service was slow but they were packed when we went. Everyone was very friendly. Would come again.

When we had walked in, we saw a sign on the door asking patrons to please make sure the door closes fully behind them. However, there was no sign on the other side for people leaving. After the door kept getting left open, letting cold air in, I finally went up to the register to speak with the young woman there. I told her that people keep leaving the door open as they are leaving and asked if she could please put a sign for people leaving the cafe, which might help. I also asked if she could please keep an eye on the door, and let her know I had already had to get up 3 times to shut the door. To her credit, she did ask if we wanted to move to a different table, but it seemed like a hassle at that point. She did say again that she would be sure to keep an eye on the door. Guess what? She did not keep an eye on the door as more people were leaving. My mother also tried to catch her as she was going by, and she didn't stop. She basically ignored us the rest of the time. The young man serving us was polite but just kind of smiled and said sorry with a passive attitude when my mother mentioned the issue as we were paying (we told him we didn't want the coffee drinks after all, we just wanted to pay and leave at that point). I would think business owners would instruct their employees to try to please their customers and make them feel welcome. In the case of an issue, I would expect the employee to want to make an effort to make things right. This was a disappointing experience and I wouldn't recommend the place for this reason.

The reviews led me to also try a breakfast sandwich on their homemade focaccia as well. It was good , wasn't expecting forthe egg seemed to have been cooked like a frittata as opposed to a fried egg. The coffee is freshly brewed and high quality. All ingredients including non dairy milk options tasted so fresh and rich. Definitely can tell the quality!!

The staff didn't seem particularly friendly, and the cashier appeared irritated, which made the experience less comfortable than expected. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich that's listed as coming on a bagel, but they were out. I completely understand things sell out. However, I was surprised to be charged an additional $2.50 for a different type of bread as a substitute. As someone who works as a barista, I understand how these situations happen, but in a hospitality-focused business, small moments like this can really shape a customer's experience. Overall, the visit felt more transactional than warm. I hope this is something that can be improved, because good hospitality can make a big difference. Overall the food was good and the drink was also good. But like mentioned above there has to be good customer service to round out the experience.

Why did she have to be so miserable when she could have had sweet, ol' lovable me forever. Anyway, nothing has changed other than the menu. The interior still had warm paintings of cute doggos all around, and the service at the bar was spectacular. Peter, I believe was his name, was so courteous, calm, respectful and nothing was a problem, he just took care of things. The starters of Tuna Tartar and the Arugula Beet Salad were fabulous, so full of mixed flavors, pleasing to all senses. For entrees my friend had the Blackened Shrimp ABLT salad, so decadent, so rich in flavors and content. I had the leftovers the next day, it was still fabulous. I had the Lamb Bolognese. A creamy thick bolognese but not heavy...if that makes any sense. For dessert the pineapple upside cake ala mode to die for! Great choice. My frequent visits in the area are Rosalie's and Estia. And now put White Dog back on that list. It's time to become a regular again in that rotation.
