La Colombe’s Philly flagship serves stellar artisanal coffee, lush pastries, and wood-fired pizzas in a spacious, rustic-industrial café perfect for work or chill.
"Sure, we love the enormous restaurant, bakery, and bar that is La Colombe in Fishtown, but when it comes time to write that romance novel or just pretend to be living in one, the Rittenhouse location takes the cake. It’s dark, moody, and always full of characters you’ll want to eavesdrop on while drinking a draft oat latte and tearing into an almond croissant." - Alison B. Kessler
"The space couldn’t be more beautiful and frankly, the coffee doesn’t get much better. While there may not be any Wi-Fi, they do also serve beer and wine and we’d venture to guess that that option might be sufficiently distracting." - The Heads of State
"Calling the La Colombe in Fishtown a “coffee shop” is kind of like carrying a Swiss Army knife and only using the tiny saw—it’s not technically wrong, but it’s also a whole lot more than that. This place feels more like a brewery, with huge, vaulted wood beam ceilings, plenty of seating, and a full food menu with everything from breakfast sandwiches to Neapolitan pizzas. They don’t have free wifi, but they do have an Xfinity hotspot, which means that if you (or a very good friend) have a Comcast login, you can work here for as long as you’d like." - Candis Mclean, Alison Kessler
"La Colombe, Fishtown by The Heads of State. The space couldn’t be more beautiful and frankly, the coffee doesn’t get much better. While there may not be any Wi-Fi, they do also serve beer and wine and we’d venture to guess that that option might be sufficiently distracting."
"La Colombe, a Philly coffee chain with 30 locations in six US cities, has a flagship cafe in Fishtown with an airy, industrial vibe. Several signature drinks are available on tap, including the draft latte (a cold, creamy beverage) and the black-and-tan, a creation that melds the draft latte with iced black coffee."
