At this large café opposite Eastern State Penitentiary, the tall windows, high ceilings with exposed ductwork, and dozens of wooden tables create an airy, casual space for trying delicious La Colombe coffee with breakfast, lunch, or a snack. The students, visitors, and families who flock here appreciate the long list of coffee drinks (which can get pricey), all-day breakfasts, and a lunch menu with salads as well as hearty sandwiches. You order at the counter, but food is brought to you. Formerly OCF Coffee House, the café is run by the same people who run Urban Saloon down the street.   

A small sandwich shop and deli, Waterfront Gourmet has a variety of breakfast items, overstuffed sandwiches, salads, coffees, and more light bites for a quick meal. There are even vegan and vegetarian options available, like the veggie panini and avocado toast.
