Sabrina's Cafe

Quick stop for a bite to eat before my flight. Ended up getting breakfast tacos. It was good. Tasted fresh and was very filling. It does have a spicy sauce that I would probably put to the side next time so the tacos aren't over dressed.

Sought out Sabrina's after a survey of places to eat in the airport. We had a 10 hr. flight ahead of us and wanted a good meal to sustain us (anticipating the airline 'dinner' would not be healthy/appealing, and it wasn't). The cafe is cheerful and comfortable, and the music was good, although a bit loud. All of the staff were friendly and our waiter, Edwin, made us feel like we were in a high-end city restaurant. There were plenty of well-balanced choices on the menu with intriguing sides and drinks, as well. We had the jerk chicken bowl and a burger with sweet potato fries. The jerk chicken was way over-sauced and the black beans lacked seasoning. The mango was flavorful and the rice was nearly perfect though. And the sauteed spinach was good as well, there just wasn't very much of it, relative to the other portions. The hamburger was cooked and seasoned well. The fried were a touch overdone, which is easy to do, but still shouldn't have been served blackened. But, Edwin's attentiveness and the atmosphere were definite bright spots, and the price for a sit-down meal was reasonable.

This is the perfect place to go eat and not feel like you're at the airport! I got the shrimp & grits which was easily an 8.5/10. the shrimp were huge, fresh and cooked perfectly. the grits had a slight bite to them but the sauce was delicious and made up for it all. The Prosecco was also delicious. My waiter was super attentive. It was quiet and nice to sit by the window for a few hours and wait for my plans.

The chicken and waffles was pretty decent for airport food, but the chicken was a little dry and the breaded was falling off easy. The Espresso Martini wasn't how I like them, a little on the watery side, and doesn't have a thick foam like I prefer. However the vibes are good, the seats comfy, and the service was excellent.

I definitely recommend giving this place a visit if you're in the area and ESPECIALLY if you have time. The food here is really pricy, but given the reviews of other food places in the airport, the quality here is well worth the price. The food wasn't the best I've eaten, the lettuce looked old and the bread a little off, but it tasted alright. I ordered from the takeout menu, but that menu has less stuff on it than the dining area does. My food was delivered to me pretty quickly, but I almost got upset when I thought an employee was ignoring me (turns out I was at the pickup counter, not where you order). I would correct this IMMEDIATELY. Trust me staff, in an AIRPORT, you do NOT let employees use their phones where customers can see them. Perception is everything in an airport restaurant, and people's patience are already running on fumes.

The breakfast tacos were easily the best airport breakfast I've ever had on the US mainland. The guacamole had basil (I believe) or something in it and it was truly spectacular. The portion size was a bit big (I am a larger guy and I hardly finished two of the three) and for the airport, the price was really competitive ($15ish in 2025).

I loved that this was one of the only places open at 5 am. We waited all night at the airport for our next connecting flight and the food & drink here made it bearable. The mixed drink kicked my butt and the breakfast tacos were filled to the brim of the tortilla. one of the best airport restaurants I’ve been to in a while

I had the Huevos Rancheros. It was the best I've ever had—incredible! The waitress was great, the food was hot and fresh. A real surprise.

This is the absolute worst airport in the country. Between the water being disgusting and tested high for every type of chemical to the dirtiest of restrooms and sitting areas. That aside - this place use the Philly water to make coffee and then serves ya fake half and half creamer. Toxic as F! Service peeps are awesome.

Best airport food! I ate many airport food but nothing can compare with this cafe. We got a nice table next to the window so we can see the planes. The iced tea is delicious, not too strong and not too sweet. The jerk chicken is juicy and tasty. Everything in the bowl go really well together. The service is fast and friendly.

Ordered chicken and waffles with an espresso martini. Server recommended over the pancakes. Great choice. Short wait for food. It was served hot. It's served with a basil butter that I would probably enjoy better on another dish. The espresso martini was a good pour but lacked froth typically seen with this drink. Bar and table seating. TVs and flight monitors. My server was busy with her tables but still attentive to me. Overall a great meal.

I love the food at Sabrina's especially if you sit in the restaurant or at the bar. I e had several omlettes, avocado toast, chai latte. Everything is top notch. Only 3 stars because the take out line got a salad is 10-15 minutes. This isn't clearly communicated when you purchase. At the airport, takeout needs to be almost grab and go. 5 minutes at worst. Or tell people before they order. I ran out of time to eat between flights because I had to wait. Looks great tho.

5 Stars - Great Airport Breakfast Spot! You can never go wrong with Sabrina's Café, and this airport location in Terminal C at PHL was no exception! The service was fast and friendly, which is exactly what you need when catching a flight. I ordered the egg sandwich, and it did not disappoint--served on a fresh brioche bun with crispy bacon and cheddar cheese, it was the perfect start to my travel day. The quality and flavor were just as good as their regular locations, which is impressive for an airport spot. If you're in PHL and need a solid meal before your flight, Sabrina's is a great choice.

The only reason this place gets 4 stars is thanks to the bartender. The receipt says Mike R. He works his butt off. Everybody else looks busy but don't really know what they're doing. The kitchen staff has to be busy too because food comes out fast so they add a positive to the review. The other staff meh. There were two employees behind the bar in some little room in the back having a serious argument about one dude disrespecting the other guy. What I think is the manager came and broke it up. It made for some entertainment so the gave another star. The burger was pretty good and presented well so the 4th star. I guess this place is hit or missed based on other reviews.

4.7 Stars! my family and I had a early flight and we wanted breakfast. We saw the menu and everything sounded super delicious. The breakfast burrito caught my eye. When it came out it looked super small but it got me really full. The portion was perfect! Their hot chocolate was not so sweet, if you have a sweet tooth it may not be to your liking but I loved it. Pricewise it was decent, especially for the quality of the food. The only downside is that it did take quite a while for the food to come out. Luckily, our gate was right next to the restaurant.

Was so excited to see Sabrina's at the airport- finally some good food expected at the airport (?) Don't hold your hold up... The brand name is significant deteriorated by coming to the airport :-( The menu selections are heavily cut, breakfast/brunch options are only available by 11am. Understood that the price is usually higher at the airport, but still when I see a plain sandwich for ~$20 (takeout) I'm still shocked. It replaced the Asian fusion place (Sky Asia or something) which had good menu selection, thought it was an upgrade (being "Sabrina's Cafe"), but now it's just another overpriced sandwich shop that takes 20+ mins and still gets your order wrong!

Stopped in for breakfast before a flight and was pleasantly surprised! The breakfast sandwich was delicious and the coffee was much better than I expected as well. Service was fast. The dining room was clean. And when the sun started to come up, the blinds automatically lowered (or someone noticed it and lowered them - either way, we didn't have to do a thing). Definitely would stop in again.

Tipping exists because restaurant owners don't pay a reasonable wage. That's been the case for a very long time and there's nothing new about this. But this 3% for their wage and benefits? Pay your damn employees! You should be ashamed of yourselves.

The pancakes are AMAZING! I got them with strawberries and they were some of the best I've had. It's a cute little spot and service was great!

I stole by Sabrina's for a quick bite to eat while I wait to board my next flight. They have a great selection on their menu. The food is good and so is the service, great experience.

My flight was delayed, so I wanted to kill sometime, and decided to pop into Sabrina's cafe, I decided to sit and the bar, and chill, my bartender was great, I enjoyed a beer and a very tasty expresso martini. If you are stuck in the airport, definitely check them out!

Had just 40 minutes until boarding. Stopped in for lunch. Had an absolutely delicious chicken salad on everything bagel. They also carry Stateside seltzers which are my favorite! Service was quick and friendly.

Enjoyed drink and avocado toast waiting for my flight. The bartender was great and I was really impressed with the friendly service especially in an airport. The avocado toast was good, but the toast was a little too think and slightly stale. Otherwise, the avocado was fresh and the side salad was really good with a nice, light dressing. The restaurant is nice and bright and they do a really good job managing people coming and going. I would definitely return!

Waited 30 minutes for a takeout breakfast sandwich, had to run to make our flight. Didn't get our breakfast sandwich, still missed our flight. Avoid at all costs if you have to make a flight at a particular time.

While waiting for my flight in the early morning, we decided to eat here after browsing the menu. We were seated quickly, and our server was quite attentive. I ordered the egg sandwich with pepperjack cheese and a brioche bun, totaling ~$12. You can add protein, like Turkey bacon, for an extra cost. There are options of American, Swiss, and provolone cheese, as well. The sandwich came with seasoned potatoes on the side covered in caramelized onions. Both the sandwich and potatoes were delicious, I loved the addition of onion on top! The bun was soft, lightly buttered and toasted, and the egg was fluffy, folded with salt and pepper. If by any chance I come back to this airport, I would definitely dine in again or order from their takeout counter and try other options! However, if time allowed it, I would dine in again because the interior design was fun and cozy.

If there was an option to leave zero stars I would leave zero stars. After waiting 40 minutes in a nearly empty restaurant, our food finally came out and literally everything was wrong. A side order never came out at all, despite being told over and over again, "it's coming". We were then charged for it and they were surprised when we asked for it to be removed from the bill. I travel a lot for work, and this is the worst airport restaurant experience I've ever had. Terrible service, terrible food, and no upside. There are other options in this airport for food. Take one of the other options.

I don't think I've ever been compelled to write a rave review of an airport restaurant -- until now. We needed to escape the tiny waiting areas in Terminal C at the Philadelphia Airport. We found Sabrina's nearby and had a wonderful breakfast. The pancakes were the fluffiest I've had in years. The stack of pancakes was huge and delicious. The $12.41 price tag was extremely reasonable. I was too busy stuffing my face to take a picture. My wife's egg sandwich was also exceptional and fairly priced. Our server, Vivian, was terrific. The two hostesses on June 11 were also personable and helpful. We were escorted to a nice table for two that gave us plenty of room for our luggage. When you can't find a seat in the waiting area for your overcrowded flight, which is almost always the case, we recommend Sabrina's.

I eat at the Sabrina's on 34th St. a lot and it is very good. However, the one in the airport is OKAY. I think the customer service at this one is hit or miss. Today I went & stood at the register for a while just for the girl with the nose rings to ask did I want to order! Tone and attitude didn't match what I'm used to.

Food was good but if you don't have 2 hours to sit and eat, don't go here. Our server did not greet us and we had to ask where they were, we did not get silverware, after 50 minutes of waiting for our food, we asked to get it to go. Setting is nice but you'll be RUSHING to your gate if you don't have atleast 2 hours to wait for your food, enjoy it and get to your gate.

Pretty solid airport food - quick good service. I got the chicken and waffles, I think the butter was infused with Pesto which was a little odd but added an interesting flavor - can't complain. Normal airport ambiance as well, seemed like the best food.

Ceasar salad with salmon (very $$$) took 30 minutes to get, salad limp, croutons soggy. Nice service, though

In the chaos of the airport, the staff at Sabrina's take-away counter were fast and efficient while also friendly and welcoming. Great experience!

If I could give them a zero I would. No service, no food, super long waits DON'T WASTE your time. I felt bad for the bartender he seemed to be the only one doing their job.

Wow. Can you say intentionally rude???!!! Obviously traveling is stressful these days and people want to enjoy a drink before they get crammed into a flight. This place has Intentionally horrible service and I really believe when you ask for a call drink they serve crappy well swill. $44 for two casamigos margs and the wife and I have a headache a day later, after 1 drink!!! Rude, expensive and probably faking call drinks with cheap well swill. Avoid at all cost!!!

This may be the only airport food that I would willingly pay the airport price for. I had the chicken and waffles (though they were out of waffles, so they subbed French toast) and that was the closest I've ever felt to god. The chicken is perfectly fried and lightly seasoned, with a basil butter on the side that you SHOULD NOT SKIP!! the French toast was soft, a little gooey in the center, and overall perfection.

Second time at Sabrina's in PHL airport. First time the food was meh so thought I'd give it a second chance considering we LOVE Sabrina's in South Philly. We were here two hours before our flight - "Plenty of time!" I thought. You probably see where this is going. We were seated quickly. My husband complained about our seat because the woman at the table next to us had her shoes off and her feet propped up on the chair across from her (which was next to him). My eye roll quelled his attempted mutiny. We waited. We chatted. We waited. We attempted to flag down the person we thought was our server with no success. She would disappear for 10 minutes at a time. Finally, we decided to just order from the bar. He went up to do so and THEN our server (yep, it was her) ran up to him and told him he couldn't order from the bar, claiming the bar staff would not take our order. Back he came to sit and wait for her to Grace us with her presence. And wait. And wait. Finally she came to the table. I stated my order. She said it wasn't available. I looked at my husband and said "You just want to go?" She said "ok" without waiting for him to answer and flounced off. I went to the hostess stand. The hostess was an instrumental part of us seeking and eventually finding our server. I asked if there was a manager that I could speak to (I know "Karen", right? But I would have been nice and constructive in the feedback and if were the manager I would rather have taken my feedback in person than via yelp). She looked at me dead in the eyes and said "she is at the table right next to where you were sitting!" The lady with the feet? Who sat next to us listening to our attempts to find a waitress? The hostess and I had a good laugh about that. I said "No point complaining then - oh well!" Laughed all the way five doors down to Bud and Marilyns. Had a good meal and good service. Made our flight.

Very nice for an airport restaurant, especially the bright and comfortable ambience. I ordered a sandwich, which was good, not amazing - the fries were quite good, and I was happy to be able to order a latte there as well, after I ate. Took a while to get seated and though my server, Vivian, was very attentive and helpful, the service wasn't super fast. I would recommend having at least 90 minutes before boarding if you plan to eat here.

The food was soo good. The Philly cheese steak (if you're vegetarian) had great spice. The Banh Mi sandwich is delicious as well. The sweet potatoes fries came out cold, but the server was super chill and brought us fries. The ambience has beautiful colors and a zen vibe. Airport food is usually not good, but this place is the exception. It was so good, I forgot to take pictures.

Stopped in for breakfast ahead of our flight, great portion sizes. Pancakes were great for little ones, breakfast sandwiches was delicious. Our server was so sweet and helpful. Great stop ahead of your flight!!

Bartender that worked Monday night 12/16/2024 is an absolute joke. Other patrons had to tell him we needed service. Instead of letting us know why he wasn't serving us, he explained it to the patrons. Place was empty, no excuse and a terrible hire.

A great place to go if you hate eating food and love missing your flight. The server took fifteen minutes to bring us water, and another twenty to bring coffee. We asked for the check with our food, having picked up on a pattern, but ten minutes later and with ten minutes before our flight completed boarding, I had to walk up to an employee and politely request for the check once more. The cappuccino was mostly milk. The "home fries" were half-heartedly fried potatoes, served with a scoop of limp over-sauteed onion that resembled a stillborn octopus. Their version of "rye toast" was stale rye bread, untoasted, served with neither butter nor jelly. The omelette was fine, though a bit small. Perfect diet food all around. If you've never been to a Sabrina's before, I beg you: do not judge this wonderful establishment by the Philadelphia Airport's crude facsimile. Every other Sabrina's I've been to has been stellar. This one felt like a bad joke. Cash-only. Don't forget to leave a tip.

Great food, great place, great ambiance, amazing service. Our waitress Morgan was a superstar. Great Philly experience.

Enjoyed the Avocado Toast and Parm Fries. Great service. Excellent airport experience.

I flew through PHL on Oct 24 and ate lunch at the bar there. Food was ok. Service is awful - what is it with many restaurants in PHL. Do the wait people hate travelers?

We had a very long delay in the Philly airport and decided to stop here and work on our computers. We were treated very kindly all of the staff I was very impressed with the service and the food was fantastic! It was a nice place to stop for a couple hours!!

I promise you any fast food you can find in the airport will be better than Sabrina's. It took us over an hour to get our food and the food was awful. Took us 45 minutes to even get water. It wasn't busy. They were out of multiple menu options. The dessert takeaway options had no taste. We asked them to warm our desserts and they took it in the back, did not warm them, and returned them back to us cold. Don't go here. Get McDonald's
