Great Awakening Cafe

Great coffee shop, good food. I come here to work remotely and jump on zoom calls All of the baristas are great especially Mia.

It's nice to have such a cute little place as this in the neighborhood. I love that it has places to sit and eat and enjoy your treat on site. I don't know if wifi is available for people to bring their laptops and work but it would be a nice touch if it does. I hope this place has a long life in the neighborhood!

As a couple of Aussies visiting family in downtown Philly, we had to get our daughter’s car tires replaced at C-Tech Automotive Services and, at our request to find a coffee shop while the work was done, one of the team, Jonathon, took us across to this great cafe. Great food, coffee and atmosphere and a great place to wile-away the time. Very polite staff. Would stop by again. Thank you.

I got a vanilla and hazelnut iced latte from this cafe and it was really good! The cold foam and flavor was perfect. The cafe seemed nice and cozy and had some seating in the back :)

Absolutely amazing coffee, service and workers! Love the environment and seating options as well as the hospitality!! Overall an amazing Cafe ran by amazing people! Highly recommend making this stop for an aesthetic and equally delicious coffee, latte or macchiato!

Excellent coffee that was fresh, flavorful and most importantly it was hot! The danish was also very good. They have a nice menu with many options and other products as well. The place is spacious, clean and relaxing. I highly recommend this cafe.

I’ve been looking for a new coffee spot and. I think I found it! The coffee is great, didn’t get a chance to try the food but it looked really good. I will definitely be coming back to try other things. The baristas were also very nice! In the picture is a salted caramel macchiato. I got two shots of flavoring, but it came with five, just not a big fan of sweet coffee. The two shots were perfect for me!

I highly recommend this cafe. It’s a hidden gem. It’s been on my list for a while especially because NE Philly doesn’t really good coffee shops. I got a bacon egg cheese on a croissant and coffee. I camped out and did work for a couple hours with no issues and a good WiFi. Didn’t need my headphones with the music- it was oldies… think Aretha Franklin era. My cousins went the next day and enjoyed their experience. I’ll be back for sure 🙂

Cozy community coffee shop. This is by far the best coffee shop in the area. Reasonable pricing and comfortable seating

So glad this cafe is in the neighborhood. Great conversations and people working around you. Artsy and local place. The food is decent. Parking is sometimes is difficult to find but I make a few circles around the streets and something turns up. I will continue to come back here and would recommend to check it out.

I happened to be in the area with my two year old and 7 month old. In the mood to sit down and relax while I get a quick meal we decided to go into this café. I was able to get a sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant 🥐, a berry smoothie, and a cheese Danish. Mmmmm. My toddler and I truly enjoyed every bite. I loved the back room that was a bit private and filled with beautiful artwork that I was surprised were for sale. The women working here were so friendly and had patience with my little guy whom ran from door to door looking at the buses, trucks, and cars go by. I love that they support talents in the community with some Friday night’s with open mic. 🎤 What a warm inviting place for a parent to relax but still get out of the house and hopefully when it gets warm we’ll be back for milkshakes!! Yummy!

Great place to get hot chocolate and some breakfast or lunch! Update as of 5/24/22 - just went back to this wonderful cafe and had the most amazing “Playa Bowl” (that would be translated as Beach Bowl) and Jeannine was fantastic!! It’s going to be sad to see them leave.

I found this place via google when I needed to hop on a zoom call while on the road. I was pleasantly surprised! Great service, the food was fresh, and it was a chill place to work for a bit.

My go to pit stop during my work day. Always friendly and the coffee is good black!

A quiet and intimate coffee cafe in a residential area. Assortment of flavors shots for your beverage. Friendly staff. Clover points are a plus. Every time I go they are welcoming and friendly. Limited food choices but dessert options look delicious. Indoor and outdoor seating. You can also host events there.

This place is amazing. Jonathan is so awesome and was very helpful. Coffee is so fresh. It was my first time here and I can't believe it's so close to me. I come here to study and it's nice and quiet. Hidden gem definitely in the northeast.

Great coffee and food and friendly staff. It's a nice, quiet place where one can talk without having to yell to be heard and work without being distracted.

Pros: V cute, atmosphere music and staff. Extensive menu and good prices. I had just a lavender macchiato. Cons: Wait was quite long (20min for just the coffee with no line, though there were 2 patrons eating) and coffee mediocre, only warm and flavor subpar. May have to return to try the food. But would not return for their coffee.

Got a bacon egg and cheese on Rye. Took a bite and got all bread it was awful! Not only did they give me the END of the bread, the extra bacon I got on there didn’t even exist so what did I spend an extra dollar for? Coffee was gross and tastes watery too. Shame cause the first time I ate here my food was great, sad that it was awful today. Y’all should be ashamed for letting food go out like that. Thank for making me have to spend more money cause I’m not eating this joke of a sandwich

Last time I was here it took almost 10 mins to get black coffee that was already made and there was only 3 more clientes. Customer service is bad, it feels like they are been forced to do their jobs.
