Elixr Coffee Roasters, Philadelphia PA

Great coffee shop tucked away between two busy streets. Lovely mid-light natural ambience, great pastries and more importantly great coffee! Try their Cortado and Almond Croissant!

BEST COFFEE SHOP IN CENTER CITY! The staff is well trained and hard working, pouring so much passion into making the perfect drink every time! It's a great atmosphere with open space so even when they're busy it never feels to crowded! This shop is the perfect example of good people using good products to make a good safe space for people to feel at home. Check it out if you get a chance, you will NOT be disappointed!

My new favorite coffee place in the city. From the moment you walk in, you know you are somewhere special. If you're in the area, definitely stop in and grab yourself something. It's definitely worth it. Grab a snack, too. They look amazing.

Amazing coffee and pastry shop! Had a delicious oat milk cafe-au-lait and the best vegan donut I've ever had in my life.

Highly recommend trying the vegan coconut donut!

Always great! The staff are delightful. Good bagels with tasty honey cream cheese. Latte always on point. Nice space to do a little work or reading, though always busy and can sometimes be a bit tricky to find a seat. Cool art and good music, a nice spot in Center City!

Their coffee quality is amazing and they know how to pour good shots and chemex

Most definitely the best roaster in Philadelphia (and probably the east coast). Some of their baristas are extremely talented and knowledgeable - one has placed top 3 at the USBC a couple of times.

Their bean selection is always on point with great relationship with farmers (mostly from central / south america). On top of that, you get a free drink everytime you purchase some beans.

Great coffee and knowledgeable staff. Don't expect to find a place to sit during peak hours. It's terribly crowded with people who've set up workstations.

This is a classic hip coffee place in cool surrounding with an appropriately distressed ambience. It buzzes with people and although there is a touch of worship-the-laptop the predominant feel is lively. The croissants are great and regular cappuccino very good. It has ruined things for me, however, by dropping soy. I won’t be going back.

No soy milk? Why do good coffee places keep dropping soy milk? It tastes way better in coffee than oat or almond. Guys please stop this madness! You are ruining my coffee!

Latte was delicious and this is important, the latte was the PERFECT temperature I can't overstate this enough. Finished it before I left. Inside is calm and inviting, staff was friendly. Lots of seating. Writing this post has me wanting another latte or maybe one of their slow drips.

One of my favorite places in the city to get coffee. The drinks are great and so is the vibe! Just be aware that they can get backed up/it can be hard to find a seat at peak times, but it is DEFINITELY worth it!

Ordered the matcha latte with oat milk and it's was the worst I've ever had. Starbucks is better. Is was such a pale green and didn't even have the slightest matcha flavor. I took a few sips and it tasted like warm milk. I wound up throwing it out in the first trash can I saw. For almost $5 that was incredibly disappointing. Their almond croissant also has zero almond Flavor. For a coffee shop with such great reviews, this experience was dreadful and a waste of $8 and food. Everything went in the trash. Hopefully their coffeenis better than their food and matcha lattes.

Hats off to Elixr for providing truly unique lattee options on the menu. I ordered the flora, which contained a unique blend of earl grey, strawberry jam, rosewater and espresso garnished with basil. This is definitely a unique combo that had my adventurous side very excited. However, I found the lattee the flavor of the lattee to be pleasant and complex but it wasn't something I would necessarily order again or find myself wanting more of. It was $5.75 for a small cup and I found the price point to be a little steep. Additionally, the vibe is cozy but it is very packed. That have accommodated this with lots of bench seating and outlets below which is awesome, but the small tables in front of the bench space does not make it a very good work space. Roughly 10 people were sitting in the group bench space on their laptops. I would reccomend a higher table to make better use of the space or offering customers lap desks as needed to make the experience more enjoyable, as this is a bit deterring.

The coffee is good. Outrageously expensive, but good. Not the spot for your daily cup of joe, but if you are a coffee lover looking for something new and interesting to try out then Elixr is the spot to experiment.

This is one of the best spots in the city! I had the turkey pesto baguette and my go-to drink, breve cortado! I almost died of happiness, but luckily survived to write this post! Lolz!

Elixr is a wonderful detour off Walnut. Upon entering the shop, you are greeted by the delicious aroma of fresh-brewed coffee, which Elixr proudly roasts in-house. Peruse the menu for the current offerings, complete with tasting notes, and order at the counter. Delicate, yet flavorful coffee will be provided to you following a short wait.

Note that it can be difficult to obtain a seat here, as the tables/couch are often occupied by people working in the shop.

Tip: the purchase of a pound of coffee comes with a voucher for a free drink (any drink)!

Best Latte in Philly, pastries are tasty too. It was a little hard to find, it’s in a alley, I did get lucky and found a parking spot right in front of the shop.staff friendly and helpful

Stopped in recently to get some breakfast and a hot drink. Got a bagel and green tea latte that were both pretty good. They have a lot of tasty cream cheese options; the only con is that they didn't toast the bagel, but maybe you have to ask for that?
