Get the Shakshuka, a unique middle eastern dish featuring three eggs poached in a slow cooked homemade tomato sauce served with fresh baked bread.
Adriano TrovatoAugust 19, 2012Everything was delicious and the service excellent. William is lovely. Try the Mediterranean Platter: it's terrific, especially the hummus, the dolmas, and the pita bread.
Alyssa NicoleNovember 24, 2018I got the goat cheese omelette and the vanilla chai tea latte, absolutely delicious, definitely coming back here next time I'm in Philly
Bobby G.September 16, 2013Cafe Ole is still Cafe O'Yea - had Shakshuka which is always outstanding. Excellent and friendly service, reasonably priced - perfect for a Sunday breakfast with the Family!
Rachel MyhillFebruary 2, 2016Nutella Puff. Yes, Please! Good coffee, entirely unpretentious. They have (slightly comical) ginormous jugs of simple syrup --a brown sugar one, too!
Brett GarwoodJuly 11, 2015Don't blink, you might miss this small but authentic coffee spot. Stop in, you won't regret it. Just north of Market.- Bobby G.January 6, 2013Cafe Ole is Cafe O'Yea! While Shakshuka is outstanding - so is the hummus and spinach salad!
- My favorite sit down cafe in the city, excellent chai flavors!
- Favorites are: Shakshuka. Breakfast wraps. Soups. Vegan wrap and nicoise sandwiches. Awesome place to hang on a warm day
Shakshuka and Bourekas are amazing!!! Service is spot on and the owner is a wonderful and inspiring woman!
Great staff. Super friendly and warm environment. The music is great too...but sometimes a little loud.
Great salads and sandwiches. Cucumber salad is awesome. Food is half price after 6pm!
Every time I'm here - without fail, they short my change - by quite a bit - today $5. I appreciate the urgency to be speedy but make sure you count your change b/c they do too much at once.
My fav place on earth! Coffee is the best in the city. Service is the best! And the brie and apple sandwich is the bomb.
The French toast is amazing! Best I've ever had. Made fresh from challah and has a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top. Truly the best!
Jennifer HaveyMay 3, 2013The breakfast wrap was very tasty. The service was fine, but the owner(?) was impatient with one of the servers. She abruptly dumped out a coffee drink that looked fine and remade it. Uncomfortable.
Great coffee, always friendly. Go on Sundays all sandwiches / salads in the case are $5
Look really busy on your computer while sipping a third coffee and barely comprehending what's going on in the real world.
Marco TaboasMarch 2, 2012One of the best places to have breakfast in Filadelfia, nice people, nice food, great coffe!
- AshleyJune 10, 2010Since everything is made fresh daily their sandwiches are half price after six every day!! The European grilled cheese is AMAZING!
Everett ReissMay 10, 2010Just had their tropical ice tea today... amazing! Also, solid free wifi, great place to work remotely from. Read more
The lox plate is incredible. Better than 99% than I've had.
annie heckenbergerDecember 31, 2011Skip the bagels. Made by Le Bus, they look great, but are entirely too dense to be called a bagel. More like a dinner roll.
- The Shakshouka is the strangest most wonderful thing we've ever eaten here
Iced chai is amazing, especially with espresso. Good food too
If you don't need the caffeine, try the hot apple cider.
