Coffee and breakfast sandwich was really good. I had the Turkey bacon, egg and cheese on a fresh roll. Coffee was fresh local stuff. I was just a bit disappointed with the attitude from the cook when I complained that I didn’t ask for pepper in my eggs. The server was very polite and told me that’s the way the eggs are prepared and that he’ll get me another one. He gave her(the cook) the sandwich, she looked up at me. When I tell her I couldn’t tolerate the pepper she became annoyed and told the server«throw it out, what does she want a refund?» To be honest, the sandwich was good but not special or great. For the ridiculous prices they’re charging, I would of expected a bit better treatment.

I appreciate this little café a lot. It is locate to right next bike rental, entrance of boathouse row so I would say it is in prime location. In the winter, you want to grab hot coffee here and during the summer, you want ice coffee from this place. I mean this place would be doing great no matter what because of the location. But their coffee is actually pretty good, they make fresh fruit smoothies without any sweetener. Only fresh fruit in there. Their frittata was delicious, side salad and potato were fresh. Yum yum yum. I had veggie wrap before and it was yummy. All food and drink looked very fresh to me and seems like people there make an effort to make this place pleasant. 5 stars.

An interesting little cafeteria situated on the side. The café is rather small and confined and includes only a counter around the perimeter. Outside there is ample seating. There was a gentleman playing guitar and singing outside which went along woth the beautiful afternoon wonderfully. The menu consists of all day breakfast items(YAY!) as well as lunch/sandwich items. You order and pay at the counter and they will then call your name and bring the food to you outside. I ordered the breakfast burrito($ 10) and tea. The burrito was huge and stuffed to the max with scrambled eggs, tomatoes, roasted sweet and regular potatoes, cheese and black beans. Unfortunately, the black beans were not cooked long enough and were hard. :( There is a good selection of herbal teas as well as the classic black tea. I would like to give this venue another chance since I enjoyed the area.

I have walked by this place hundreds of times and today, I finally stopped in. The food was great. I was hesitant because I thought the food would be greasy and it wasn’t at all. Now that I have dined here, it will be very difficult for me not to stop in for a treat.

I found this place by accident and I’m really glad that I did. The food was really tasty and fresh(had the chicken spinach burger which was really great and the free refills of tea with mint and honey… *lesigh). Service was friendly. And the location was really nice(what a beautiful view!) Only qualm is that the place could have been a little cleaner, visually. it looked like the seating areas upstairs and downstairs could have used a quick clean. Will definitely return for more of the delicious food and view!

Peg and her staff are awesome(especially Tara). Thank you for helping us pull off an amazing baby shower for our friend. The Regatta room was perfect and so many of our guests asked how we found the place! The catering was delicious and pricing very reasonable. The price paid included linens, plates, flatware, wait staff and selected menu items. If you are looking for a great space to host an event try the Regatta Room at Cosmic Café. There is also an outdoor space.

Cute little café that is a perfect stop after walking the schuykill river walk. Very tiny inside with window seating for perhaps 8. Nice angled view of the river Outdoor seating for warmer weather. Only thing that could have been better is if the soup was hot. I saw how they assembled the chicken noodle soup. They take a bowl out, put in broth, then cooked noodles and a big heap of cooked chicken. It was very good soup and a very hearty portion. Next time I would ask them to heat it up We had : Chicken noodle soup Ham and cheese on marble rye ala Seinfeld Egg and cheese sandwich Carrot, apple and ginger juice. Homemade cookies. All were good, homemade and healthy. You order at the counter and its delivered to your seat via friendly staff. I’ll go back.

Great location and I’m always hopeful that the food will improve to match. But alas I’m always disappointed. The black bean burger was flavorless with a lot of mustard. Not being adequately cooked didn’t help either. My friend ordered a turkey wrap and said the turkey was dry with an odd taste. The Mac & cheese I ordered for my daughter was less inspired than even a box of Kraft.

I was looking for a banana split, but the egg salad sandwich on toasted multi-grain bread with a side of the cucumber salad was delicious! Prices were especially good too considering the portions were generous. I will make it a point to enjoy other fare there when I walk the drive with my daughter and grandson. It made the day even more enjoyable.

I stopped in for a late breakfast after a morning rowing session, and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is quirky, but the people are friendly. I went with the breakfast burrito, which was all right, but certainly nothing special, and left me still kind of hungry. I imagine the patio is wonderful to sit out on in the summer months, something I was not fortunate enough to experience. The location is great, but it’s nothing to write home about.

Had a good cheesesteak, prices are really good. The owner was really nice to me, even brewed new coffee because mine got cold. Definitely recommend for every tourist walking the river trail and needs a little rest on its way to the boathouse row.

I ride on the Schuylkill trail every week and I never stopped at the Cosmic Café before. I wish I knew how fabulous it was this whole time, because I have been missing out big time! The food options are seemingly endless and prepared fresh, and they have homemade iced tea and lemonade with FREEREFILLS! I had a yogurt parfait and a lemonade and my uncle had two fruit cups, it is a little pricy, but I believe it is completely worth it! The atmosphere is lovely and there is plenty of seating outside overlooking the river.

Fresh brewed tea with real mint and honey, need I say more? Add to that wonderful service and a delicious egg and cheese on a kaiser(even a slice of watermelon to go with it). It was a great place to take a break after biking on West River Drive… good food, nice service, not a rip off. Hey!

As a rower on Boathouse Row, I think this place is a great addition. The breakfast sandwiches are huge, neat, and satisfying. The chocolate milk is a great post-workout drink. And on cold days, her hot chocolate is the richest I’ve ever tasted. It is on the pricier side, but well worth it. You can sit inside along the windows, upstairs at tables, or outside. Service is pretty quick. They operate with a small, cheery staff. My teammates and I have become regulars.

Food is amazing! Chicken spinach burger is out of this world(pun intended) and the breakfast burritos are never ending! Plus they sell Gazapacho, where else in Philly can you get Gazpacho? Prices are reasonable, friendly service and you have the opportunity to dine along the river right next to Boathouse Row! I usually stop there either before or after my rides on the Schulkill River Trail. Just a great spot to unwind and refresh. Do it!
