Steph Parker: Hip is probably short for hipster, but the Crispy HipCity Ranch is delicious (and I eat meat). Pair it with a vanilla shake for an awesome lunch - but go before noon to beat the rush.
Jill R: Crispy hip city ranch is the way to go! The green smoothie is pretty good too. Oh and the brownie is also delicious.
Roberto Szafransko: The Bobby Special: crispy hip city ranch in a wrap with buffalo sauce. Don't forget to use sriracha liberally.

Danielle Boudreau: Pour over coffee is great, the staff and regulars are friendly, and the lighting is good for doing work. The decor is minimal and tasteful, bringing to mind trendy Scandinavian cafes. A great spot!
Amanda Parker: Really good cold brew and really good lattes. Also has interesting and earthy decor. Great place to do work if you can get a seat.
Philly.com: They've sourced excellent beans not yet commonly brewed locally, including a peppery, lemony Neon espresso from Minnesota's Dogwood. Read more.
