La Colombe have 2 locations in Philadelphia.One off Rittenhouse Square and the other in Dilworth Plaza. I tried both and they deliver consistently good (espresso machine) coffee, although I think the Dilworth Plaza location does a better job.

I came here at the recommendation of a Philly resident. The coffee and pastries are delicious. The coffee took me back to Barcelona. The flavor if the beans was amazing and the froth was perfected.

I used to love the strong, dark coffee at this place when it first opened many years ago so I jumped at the opportunity to visit again. I ordered a short double capuccino but what I received was all milk with barely any coffee. Very disappointing.

The coffee was very good (and priced accordingly) and the almond croissant was equally as good. As for the ambience,... More

We stopped at the location close to Rittenhouse Square for coffee on our recent visit to Philadelphia. The coffee reviews were really good and I have to agree with them. Both my husband and I thought our coffees were great. The service was excellent and the ambience was terrific even though the place was pretty busy.
