I have been a regular here since it replaced Lovers & Madmen; however, Im never coming here again. I had the single worst coffee shop experience of my life here today. I came into the cafe around 11am today and found it half-empty. I sat down with a friend and had coffee - I purchased a coffee and he did not. The gentleman behind the counter came up to my friend and asked him to leave unless he made a purchase. My friend immediately obliged and started packing up his stuff; however, I kindly pointed out to the gentleman that the coffee shop was empty, that I am a regular there, and that the person he was kicking out was a friend I was having a great discussion with, so I would really appreciate it if he could allow my friend to stay. I told him I would understand if the coffee shop was remotely full, but it was not. The gentleman then switched the topic and responded by YELLING that internet access is only for customers, to which I gently responded saying that my friend and I were not on the internet. The gentleman then repeated, YELLING even louder, "Internet is only for paying customers!" --This is an argument I just told him made no sense. And then my friend, wishing to avoid conflict, said that he would just leave. After my friend left, I went up to the gentleman and gently said, "I have been coming here for 5 years (when it was still Lovers & Madmen), I know you are a really nice guy. Therefore, I know that you are just having a really bad day. Please, I know how nice you are, so please dont take your bad day frustrations out on your customers. Im very disappointed in you because I know how nice you can be." He responded to that by YELLING, "WELL I AM DISAPPOINTED IN YOU!" After that, I just walked out, and Im never coming back.

After my sisters graduation ceremony, the family was famished...we almost ate the car cushion seats. Luckily, we came across this gem a few blocks down from the Pharmacy School at USP. I must say every time Im walking in this part of Philly, Im always stopping to take pictures of the beautiful streets; it makes the walk a little more enjoyable. The first thing I noticed was the outdoor seating of cafe before we walked in. It was a quaint little, corner cafe. You can smell the coffee brewing as you walked in and the bright display of all their baked goods. From their featured sandwiches, I had the opportunity to try Chicken Bacon Ranch; it was a sourdough bread filled with chicken breast, bacon, provolone, lettuce and tomato. You choose an item from their display and they heat it up, panini-style. Taking my first bite, I was happy the inside was thoroughly warmed up with the cheese melted. The bacon makes this sandwich the real winner. I scarfed down the entire sandwich in a matter of minutes. Looking around, there are a few tables that were occupied with people working away on their laptops and the usuals coming and going with their daily caffeinated drink. If I was in the area, this looked like a great cafe to work out of and a great choice for vegan food. Cant wait to try them out again when Im back in Philly!

Well; This seems to be a very nice eatery. I love the architecture of this cafe. I enjoy leaving pamphlets about The Universal Church at 3801 North Broad Street and also about Rittenhouse Needlepoint on 1737 Chestnut Street free classes every Saturday morning at 10:00am. Today I purchased a gluten-free toasted pumpkin bagel. It was sentimental for me. I also purchased a banana and some 55% cocoa tiny bar chocolates. My overall experience was wonderful and I am looking forward to making that my 1st choice for all of my meals for the day. The last time I had a nice experience like this was in Voorhees Town Center. God Bless All of Gods Saints and I always look forward to many more great memories !!!

Lots of vegan and vegetarian options, and the prices are cheaper than most center city cafes. Nice large working area with couches as well.

Green line is great! The coffee is very good and this location has WiFi, it can get a bit crowded though so you may want to come early.

Good coffee drinks. Food selection is mostly vegan/vegetarian, which was decent, but just not my style of food. Will return.

This Green Line is just as good as the others in terms of food and service, but they keep weird hours and its kinda small.
