Yes, I know it has been far too long since a serious post. But maybe I'm finally getting my head above water.
In any event here is serious Philly coffee advice:
***The Nook***, 15 South 20th. He roasts; she bakes. Glorious shrine to seriously sourced and roasted coffee, and meticulous and loving baking. Alas, no tables, but so what? Best coffee in Philly, hands down, as of 2/2023. PLEASE, pay them a visit.
