La Colombe Coffee Roasters

"DON'T GO. Employees have an attitude problem. After waiting 20min for a coffee, they scolded (at a high volume for everyone to notice) my wife for taking the 'wrong' coffee - same order, but it was for the person who ordered after us. Still waiting for the other drinks in our order. I get it's the holidays, but get a more patient temperament."

"First time trying this coffee shop. I ordered a dirty chai hot “oat milk”. I watched the barista pour whole milk into my drink. I spoke up with my concern and he and the other employee who wasn't even around when the guy was making my drink insisted that it was made with oatmilk. The lady was very aggressive with a nasty tone. I don't know if she was a manager or not, but I didn't want to cause a disturbance so I just left. She was a plus-size African-American woman on the taller side maybe 5’8. I'm currently experiencing stomach pain my drink was made with whole milk as I stated. Perhaps it was a mistake, but this was handled completely wrong. I really didn't want to argue and I should not have to."

"La Colombe has been a consistent stop for me for close to a decade (even over the pandemic when they only offered take out). The coffee and espresso is excellent, there’s a good selection of teas, and the baked goods, while pricey, are quality. There has never been WiFi at La Colombe nor have they ever advertised it (at any location, to my knowledge). People who do work at this cafe, like myself, get creative if they need WiFi - they either piggy-back off of another nearby business or use a mobile hotspot. For most of us, it’s honestly never been a problem, so reading all the negative reviews that are WiFi related are a little annoying. The 4/5 star review is related to a few recent experiences that have made it less pleasant to sit or work in the space. This location recently underwent some repairs and got a giant ceiling fan installed to help circulate air. While it’s normally fine, there have been a few times where it’s been turned up unnecessarily high, to the point where it’s unpleasant to sit under it and napkins are blowing off of tables. There have also been moments where a staff member is playing music in the kitchen at such a volume that it is audible underneath the music that is playing in the cafe/dining space. Not only has this been incredibly annoying, but for my friend with an auditory processing disability, it has also been very distressing. Posting here as part of the review in the hopes that it can be addressed."

"Wonderful place with very good staff… We visited few times… Highly recommend this place… It is a busy place for breakfast on weekends… Croissants are very delicious… Ofcourse their coffee is unbeatable…. We had cappuccinos and we had to ask for extra hot… There are packed drinks and few packed foods…. For a quick grab and go. It is located in a nice corner in a kind of strip mall.. so parking is quite busy.. Restrooms are neat and clean"

"The Philadelphia Original where the La Colombe brand was born. A coffee lovers dream. Authentically prepared in an open barista bar. You won't find all the frozen, blended smothered in whipped cream trash you'll find elsewhere. Delicious coffee options prepared in modern traditional fashion. The Seasonal Gingerbread Scone was delicious. The Draft Latte and Hot Latte were creamy, delicious, goodness."
