Breezy’s Cafe

Cutest little café right in South Philly! Staff was nice and when we ordered food right before they closed, they didn’t seem irritated and they even through some cookies in for us! Great vibe, thanks for great service! The meatloaf sandwich was awesome! Good spot to go with a laptop to get some work done too. :)

After reading so many great reviews I decided to give it a try.
Arrived Friday at 7:30 at which point there was one customer sitting and one employee eating at a table. Three other people walked in around the same time as I was about to order.
At this time they were out of three items. Eggplant, meatball sandwich and vegan chicken salad. Although 2 were not marked on the board. Went specifically for the meatball :(
We ordered two roast beef sandwiches instead and bread pudding to go.
We waited for roughly 25 – 30 minutes when we finally got our order to go.
Upon getting home, the sandwiches were severely lacking meat and the horseradish ranch dressing was undetectable. I also had a sparse amount of sharp cheddar although it could have been anything as I couldn’t taste it through all the lettuce and onions. At $ 9/​sandwich it was a real shame.
At least I had my bread pudding to look forward to. Shame that wasn’t the case either. I was given a cold block of bread pudding that was very dense and fairly dry. I decided to warm it up in the microwave for 60 seconds which did help, but overall it was nothing to write home about. I should also mention that some of the bread was most likely old cake that they sell (which is very typical in most restaurants) however they clearly used banana bread as it seemed to overpower the overall flavor. This would have been ok although there was no mention on the menu or from the employee, luckily I’m not allergic.
So all said and done they were out of what I really wanted to eat two hours prior to closing on a Friday night followed by two sub par sandwiches which I’ve gotten better at wawa for half the price. And finished off with dry bread pudding that was overwhelmingly tasting of banana. Oh and it only cost me $ 25 and 30 minutes of my life.
Needless to say I don’t think I’ll be going back which is a shame as I was happy to find somewhere close and good.

Delicious! I had the bacon egg and cheese on pretzel and it was perfect! The only improvement is I probably ordered one for later. The café is a good atmosphere, very laid back.

I work at a public school that is close enough to breezys to get my lunch delivered from them. I order from breezys a lot, like a lot. Because I LOVE THIS PLACE. I usually get a blt because it’s just done super well and the bacon is awesome quality.
If you go here– you gotta get a rice Krispy treat. Made in house and about the size of your hand. My favorite part of lunch from breezys.

Sunny little corner café in Point Breeze that loves their neighborhood (they even say so with their wifi password: ilovepointbreeze), serving up veg friendly sandwiches and treats, as well as delish carnivorous plates. I was most impressed with the variety of their rotating menu which is something you don’t always see at a counter-​service café, and the quality of their ingredients. Their special that night was a roast beef melt on a pretzel that was comfortingly yummy on a fall evening (half-​point off because the roll could have been a little fresher). However, the all-​star of the visit was the chocolate chip cookie (2 for $ 1) that is currently giving me morning-​after cravings. They walked the PERFECT balance between crunchy and soft, and were generously filled with gourmet chocolate chips. Breezy’s must make them so cheap as an insistence that you try them. I did, and they were the best part of my night (week? No not week, that’s depressing)… The point is, don’t skip dessert. (Vegans, they have a double chocolate brownie waiting for you, too).

My daughter always asks me to go here for her make face supplies. She sings me the catch phrase «easy breezy beautimous café girl!» or something like that. Anyway they have a pretty staff great hair rubbers! Two thumbs up Breezy!

Breezy’s was one of the first good eats spot in point breeze and I hope they find a great new location in the area! I have always enjoyed it as a nice lunch respite during my day. I’ve had a couple nice dates there and have even spotted local celebrities dining there like Ori Feibush! Breeze on Breezays!

This place is incredible. The ratings speak for themselves. I’m not a huge sandwich person at all and I’m not remotely vegan/​vegetarian either, but Breezy’s sandwiches, meat and vegan options alike, are mouthwatering, culinary masterpieces.
Get the Choripan (vegan chorizo), the BBQ pork, the vegan chicken salad, and the mushroom and brie melt. I need to stop typing because I’m drooling all over my keyboard just thinking about it.

I ventured over to Breezy’s Café twice in one weekend! Once Saturday and then again on Sunday. Breezy’s Café is amazing and I can’t believe I hadn’t been there before. My husband took myself and three friends there for brunch on Saturday and boy was I glad we went!
On Saturday I got a bacon, egg, and cheese on wheat bread and then on Sunday I got a bacon, egg, and cheese but this time on challah bread. The sandwiches were fantastic! The ingredients all tasted very fresh and not over filling. The place itself is bright and very clean. I will definitely be coming back soon!

Can’t give a customer ice if they’d like it for they’re Tea, Cookies were burnt to an ashy crisp. But they do have a cat on they’re sign.

Breezys is phenomenal. This is my favorite café in the whole city. Whenever I have visitors, I take them here for a leisurely lunch. There are so many food options that there is something here for everyone’s diet and preferences. I love everything I’ve ordered, from the meatball and the Italian sandwiches, to the soup, to the pretzel rolls (the farmers cheese/​pork roll combo is a must try). The food is super delicious, and consistently so.
If you live remotely close to this place and you haven’t tried it yet, you have to check it out! The service is prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere is very inviting (lots of big windows and sunlight, and plenty of tables and chairs).
I went here again today and that’s when I remembered that I hadn’t reviewed them on Unilocal yet. Can’t rave about this place enough. Go see for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.

One of a kind gem. I am allergic to fruit, nuts, shellfish and everything in between. When I first tried this super cute café, I was blown away. Not only was the staff super friendly, they were very accommodating to my allergies and special requests. They always make me whatever I want with no questions asked.
The food is always tasty and full of flavor. It is comforting to know what I am putting in my body is fresh and locally grown.
I have tried just about everything on the menu. I would have to say that my ultimate favorite is a breakfast sandwich called the EASY BREEZY. I am not sure if it is the cream cheese or the honey wheat toast but the sandwich is so crisp and delicious.
I have purchased several items, including the gluten free cookies, all kinds of sandwiches and the out of this world donuts, and taken them to work. Not only does my husband and I talk about your food for days, but my office is now a huge fan too.
Thank you for coming to my neighborhood and bringing such fabulous food! I crave your coffee even when you are closed!!! One of your biggest fans!

Breezy’s is awesome. Hands down, best coffee/​breakfast spot in Point Breeze. I eat here at least 2 – 3 times a week and I’ve never been disappointed. Best bagel in the neighborhood. Clean. Friendly. Affordable. I highly recommend Breezy’s to anyone visiting the Breeze.
Vegan options are delicious. Pretzel rolls are killer. Got nothing but positivity for this place. Check it out!

To call this place a sandwich shop is a vast under statement. Their breakfast sandwiches curate interesting ingredients with local produce to make for one incredible breakfast experience (for vegans and carnivores alike). I consistently get the avocado, cream cheese, egg and tomato sandwich, but today mixed it up for the cream cheese, apple butter, tempeh bacon on honey wheat. Divine.
Beyond the food, the staff and owner are so thoughtful about their guests’ experience; always checking in on the food, asking how you’ve been, and making the atmosphere a perfect place to spend a Sunday morning for a quick bite. It’s great to have an establishment like this come unobtrusively into the neighborhood and add to the local scene, and has really become one of our favorite sports in Philly.

Awesome little coffee shop in Point Breeze area! A lot of my friends like it, so I gave it a shot. The barista was cool, and was fine with talking about what is good on the menu. I decided on the Farm Salad, and it was really good. They give you quite the helping on goat cheese, so that is a plus. I will probably return if around the area for some lunch and coffee.

I CANT STOP EATING HERE!!!
I bring everyone who visits me to eat here. The food is ridiculously fresh, inventive and delicious. Staff is friendly. Bright and happy environment
Salted caramel milk shake. Nuff said.

A friend brought me to Breezy’s to grab a quick bite on perhaps the coldest day of the year. When I got inside I knew I had to have some warm belly goodness and, although a proud carnivore, opted for the Vegan Chili. Typically I would have skipped a beverage (it was too cold for something cold and coffee or tea just didn’t seem right with chili) but I spotted a bottle of Blackberry, Pomegranate, Ginger, sparkling deliciousness and had to have it!!! I wish I had paid better attention to what it was because boy, was it good.
They served the chili piping hot and in a bowl «for here». Although it was very tasty I regret not knowing there was quinoa in it prior to ordering – I’m just not a fan. I certainly don’t hold this against breezy’s or the chili though – which really did have nice flavor.
Overall I had heard a lot of good things about this spot and, although I am not in the are that often I really look forward to coming back for their salads and sandwiches – hopefully on a day when the windchill isn’t –10*!
P. S. Huge sucker for the cat décor :)

This vegetarian could have Breezy’s for dinner every night and never grow tired of the food! I’ve visited a handful of times and there are still so many veggie options left to try. Plus, all sandwiches can be made into salads, so, in all reality, I could actually try new things from the menu for weeks. Hmmm…
The Farm Salad is so good, I’ve ordered it twice. The combination and amount of ingredients used has a wonderful balance; it’s actually pretty filling! The herbed goat cheese used is to die for, but what I love most about it is the freshness of the greens. If I’m not mistaken, most of their produce is imported from my neighboring hometown of Lancaster, PA… ahh, the Amish and Amish-​ish know how to get things done. Also, Breezy’s also serves as a pick up location for a Lancaster-​based farm share. I wish I knew that when I lived in South Philly!
The fries are SO good. I recently learned that they are fried in organic peanut oil and it makes all the difference!
Breezy’s also is like a beverage emporium with all of the varieties of bottles to choose from. Fancy kombucha and soda galore!
And, finally, I’ve enjoyed the vegan cheesesteak — it’s at a tie for #1 in Philly for me. The seitan has an outstanding texture and consistency, the cheesy goo part is savory but not too heavy-​handed and the bread has a fresh, well-​crafted, fluffy feel to it that makes the whole thing a home run.
Next on my list: Tofu Bahn Mi and Brie + Mushroom Melt
I haven’t been in for breakfast yet, but I can’t wait to try it! The folks who run Breezy’s really go out of their way to curate a menu of quality/​small batch/​local/​organic items, so there’s always something interesting to check out.
What astounds me the most is that I’ve found a place in Philly where I can bring my meat-​and-​potatoes kinda parents to for any meal of the day and we all leave happy. Keep up the fine work, Breezy’s!

I love Breezy’s! So much vegan friendliness all in one place & a really great vibe. I loved the Tofu Banh Mi – delish – and I’m looking forward to trying the seitan cheesesteak (vegan option available!), the vegan chicken salad, and the falafel. The fries were also great, and they also have some vegan desserts
Umm. Now I’m really hungry & ready to get back to Breezy’s! Highly recommend!

Meatball Hoagie ($ 7.75)
Bread was good but cold, as were the meatballs. They replaced it but the meatballs were just barely warm.
Lentil & smoked turkey soup 8oz ($ 3.50)
Lentils are perfectly cooked, but soup was overly salted.
Roast beef hoagie ($ 8.50)
Very good.

Does Breezy’s really need another 5-​star review? YEP. I ended up here today, even though it’s not super close to my ‘hood. My boyfriend and I were both starving and we met a friend for lunch. First off, it’s like almost everything else worth going to in South Philly: nestled in a residential area not very close to anywhere else you would want to go. However, I knew just from the giant cat-​with-​an-​eyepatch sign outside, it was going to be good.
The inside is clean and cute, with tables made out of board game boards, nice lighting, and quirky artwork. They have tons of sandwich options for any dietary needs, and it was a tough call! We ended up splitting the seitan and provolone, the choripan, and three different side dishes (quinoa salad, cucumber salad, potato salad… I told you– we were starving!). Everything was quite good. However, we both tried our friend’s quinoa wrap and decided it was even better than either of our sandwiches. I kind of just want to come back and try every single thing on the menu, because I bet there are some gems on there.
The waitstaff was super friendly and the bottled and canned drink selection was huge. They also had milkshakes, but I was too full. Next time! Because there will definitely be a next time at Breezy’s.
