About this business
We are a 100% Philadelphia-metro operated business with dedicated, knowledgeable staff here to help you choose varieties, roasts, and brewing techniques. We roast only the high grade Arabica high grown coffee. We buy smartly so that you can drink well; our prices are among the lowest because we avoid the steps of using a commercial roaster and wholesaler. Our coffee is guaranteed to be the freshest available because we roast tiny batches.

Rich, fullbodied, Flavor – Old City coffee never fails to deliver a fresh quality cup of coffee. Wireless web and an extra friendly staff is an added bonus!
