This is my go to place for a great prices , great quality food and great coffee , tea & other beverages. Their breakfast sandwich is amazing and cooked to perfection. I usually get b-fast sandwich on rye bread, with pepper Jack, red onion & Turkey bacon. For the sandwich’s you will need to add your own pepper, salt and hot sauce to give it some more flavoring. (But I don’t mind)
They are very speedy even when busy. The barista & workers are friendly and has an overall great vibe. It only takes Max 10-15 mins for food to be served to your table and drinks 3-5 mins (max) to be called out.
Recommend this place they have outdoor and in door seating
They have bathrooms and dogs are allowed outside seating

The coffee/espresso itself was full bodied, but the flavoring syrups for the lattes were a bit lackluster. Also the organization for the ordering line and pickup line were chaotic. Would love to see some original flavors on the menu.

The atmosphere and The music is nice, but the food and the drinks are not that great.
The staff is not too friendly, my coffee was weak in flavor, and I was waiting to be called to pick it up, but they were too busy doing nothing, and my coffee went bad a complete disappointment, not to mention that I asked to the cashier if they have brown sugar and his answer was “We don't have it”, and they have a whole setup with sugar next to him. My husband ordered a cheese and egg sandwich, as you can see in the picture it looks very depressing with no utensils.
This place it wasn't too busy, and this simple sandwich took almost 20 min to make it.
They need to improve customer service.
I never post negative reviews, but this place really gave me a bad experience.

I am here on vacation all the way from miami! I went to eastern pennitentary and thought why not grab a snack and coffee. My egg sandwich was so plain...no flavor...no salt..no nothing. Staff were meh. Nothing special.

Came to OCF before heading south for the Flower Show. The space is huge, with plenty of options for either a large group or single person wanting to work.
The coffee we got was good, and while I didn't love the breakfast sandwich, it was still a solid experience. Probably won't come back just for the food, but the coffee is great and vibes on point.

Great coffee spot with attentive and friendly staff. The venue is wheelchair accessible with a ramp that is the 2nd entrance on 21st and Fairmount. The tables are spaced far enough apart that a disabled person can comfortably navigate to the counter to order. OCF also has a wheelchair accessible bathroom. They also provide an outdoor dining option that is far enough away from the sidewalk enough that it is comfortable to sit and converse.

Chill cafe right across the penitentiary museum. Good variety in their menu and they have sandwiches and pastries! Staff is friendly and accommodating. They have a counter with several self serve condiments including simple syrup, a few milk options, several sauces, and pretty much everything you need for coffee and tea.

The coffee shop took action to lower the one-time use of plastic. They won't provide a straw anymore. Instead, they offer a stainless straw for $1.5. We had a smoothie and iced matcha latte. I don't recommend the iced matcha latte cuz the powder isn't blended into the drink yet. The smoothie is good. The shop also provided solid sandwich and brunch items.

I must admit I'm more of a tea than coffee person, but given all the pictures of latte art I thought I might as well give it a try!
I ordered a vanilla latte which was really good, definitely better than expected for someone who's usually a tea drinker.
I also liked the chill vibe making it an ideal spot for sitting with your laptop and getting work done.

Large coffee house with plenty of tables, great WiFi located across the street from Eastern State Penitentiary.
I’m here on a foggy day, which is the perfect ambience to drink hot chocolate and write reviews across from a castle-like institution that opened 180 years ago. Along with my drink, I ordered an everything bagel with veggie spread. The hot chocolate could have been hotter and sweeter but it did its job well. The bagel was nice, crispy but soft with slightly too much spread.
The ambience for getting work done is excellent. There are plenty of tables so you can have your own space. Floor to ceiling windows line half the building letting in as much natural light as possible. The WiFi password is: ILOVECOFFEE.
