Es Cafe Lounge 1447 North American Street, Philadelphia, PA 19122

"I’ve been living in Philly for a while and drink a lot of coffee but this is easily the best coffee I’ve had in the city. A very welcoming environment with a lot of places to sit, this place is perfect for getting some work done or catching up with friends while grabbing the best coffee around. Highly recommend!"

"I walk by this coffee shop on my way to the salon almost every day. And today I finally decided to walk in and give it a try. As soon as I walk in it was nothing but warm greetings. I felt so welcomed. They were out of the drink I ordered so they gave me my second choice in a size up for the inconvenience. And it definitely wasn’t an inconvenience for me all. They have a great selection of drinks and pastries. The have free dog treats because they are pet friendly which is my favorite kind of please. The beautiful humans working today definitely having me coming back all the time! The space is clean artsy and beautiful! Highly recommend"

"This is a great "family run" coffee and specialty drink cafe with a soothing atmosphere for lounging in along with limited food choices! REALLY this place specializes in Hot / Iced Tea's, Coffee's and Specialty Espresso drinks. Their home-made food is available in small batches and served by first come first serve basis. At the same time, it's mediocre at best; but could be improved if they provided the extra toppings and condiments on the side as an option for their unseasoned burgers patties. The chicken wings / drumsticks do get more attention, with a coating of sauces and spices; not sure why that is... and the burgers are left plain. If you looking for SAVORY food, this ain't the place for it... unless you really don't care and just want food with little to no flavor in your belly. I like this shop and the people who run it, but their work hours are WEIRD!! They're never open in the morning when people are out commuting, hunting for breakfast or a sharp caffeinated pick-me-up drink; and they're closed before most people in the area return from their day jobs. Honestly, I don't know how this family is making a profit from this business. If that wasn't bad enough, they're usually under staffed and NEED help. I've even offered to work at the shop because I like it so much and I live SUPER close by, but that dream DIED as soon as I brought it up. I really like this Cafe, especially in the evenings but their never open at reasonable hours, probably because the owners also have day jobs too and their kids are hitting the books during the academic seasons. Hopefully I catch them with their doors open again soon, now that the weather is breaking from Winters chilling grasp. Looking forward to chilling in that soothing atmosphere again."

"I love the vibes (decor, music) in this place. More importantly, the food was delicious and the service was helpful & friendly! Love that it’s family owned and very community oriented (they often host community bbqs and events in front of the café). All around a wonderful spot. I would recommend the salmon lox bagel & cold brew coffee and will be back to try more items!"
