Industrial charm, espresso drinks, fig & brie toast, and Oxford sandwich
"If the idea of fighting off the crowds at La Colombe a few blocks away is too much to handle, stop by Gryphon Coffee for a more low-key experience. Nestled inside the expansive residential loft complex of Oxford Mills, this equally lofty cafe has plenty of tables—and wifi—to get a little work done. Enjoy an iced coffee on nitro or a nice hot cappuccino. Not a coffee drinker? Check out the shelves behind the counter for a pretty great tea selection as well." - Melissa McFeeters
"With three locations across the greater Philadelphia area, Gryphon Café offers an assortment of breakfast sandwiches that will impress. A favorite among regulars is The Oxford — an egg, prosciutto, and cheese sandwich made with your choice of bread (though getting it on a Philly muffin is highly recommended)." - George Banks-Weston
"With three locations across the Philadelphia area, Gryphon Coffee’s Olde Kensington location brings a mellow ambiance and is full of industrial charm. But coffee-based drinks aren’t the only thing to love here; its menu of scrumptious snacks and sandwiches offers options like the fig and brie toast, roasted red pepper sandwich, and the Sugartown (a Philly muffin topped with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and capers)." - George Banks-Weston
"There are a lot of great coffee shops in Fishtown, but most of them are tiny places that fill up quickly—you might end up walking around the neighborhood for an hour looking for somewhere to work. Gryphon Cafe, a larger shop hidden on an out-of-the-way corner on Front Street, always has a big, open table for you to spread some random papers out on. And in addition to coffee, they also have things like lavender lemonade, a ginger-hibiscus cooler, and a full food menu with a few Philly muffin sandwiches, vegan pastries, and a fig and camembert toast that’s drizzled with a mildly-sweet saba." - Candis Mclean, Alison Kessler
