at 21st & Snyder!!

I had to ride down to the post office (19145) to pick up a package and passed this.



So on the way back I stopped in. The decor gives the place a very main st. coffee shop feel. Like a place you'd expect to see on in Ambler or Haddonfield. The menu is definitely old world, like you'd find at some neighborhood cafe in Spain where old guys are sitting at the bar, watching Real Madrid, drinking Estrella, eating a bocadillo, and hablando mierda. Except, from the looks of it, these folks are from Mexico (they use the word "torta" rather than the spanish "bocadillo" or the italian "panino".)

The food and drinks are awesome! The Oaxaca Chocolate was delicious, the mango smoothie was just ice and mango, and the sandwiches are light and fresh.

The only thing moderately bothersome was that the service was a little slow and one of the teenage customers was playing suprisingly good music from his ipod over the house speakers but he would let the songs play half way through then skip to the next one.

So if you live around there - check it out.

right. right.

oops.

yeah, i just did a quick look and didn't see it. didn't realize it opened so long ago.

Just the thing the south end of the Breeze can continue to build on!!!

Passyunk Square thanks for reviving this. I'm a big fan of this place, it rocks!!

Agreed! The last few times I was there it was very busy so I hope it continues that way. Besides loving the food and coffee, the girl behind the counter was playing the violin once when I went in. I just love it there.

hmmmm always passed by there...thanks for the heads up, I will try it!
