The Real Marketplace

These folks make you feel like family, and I love that! The food is always always always delicious! I recommend the fish tacos! My kids love their breakfast sandwiches, as well! Great more than just coffee, joint! Say hello to Bree for me if you stop in !! Great if you are at the Jenkintown train station, too!

So sad I waited so long to make it here. Wow. The atmosphere, the service, the juice, the lattes, the sandwiches!!! I am not even done my sandwich and I can’t wait to come back and try more! Well done!

amazing place! great food, yummy coffee & friendly happy staff. what more is there to ask for? LOVE love love this place :)

Love this great neighborhood café right across the street from the Jenkintown train station ! Great coffee (La Colombe) and sandwiches! Fantastic people and great vibe!

This is the best tasting coffee in philly prepared to perfection the ice coffee is amazing. Pastries and sandwiches could not be better. once you go theater nothing else will be good enough

Great service and loved the house made juices! My friend got the taco which was delicious and a good sized portion.

This place serves a big need in the area — good coffee and some light food. They are right by the train station and open early (just like Elkins Perk, who woulda thunk it?).
The proprietors are very nice people; they customize your order the way you want it and they have a decent bit of much better then Starbucks foods (Starbucks food is made in a factory and shipped to the stores wrapped in those nice plastic and cellophane wrappers — just like the food at 7 – 11 and other convenience stores!)
Here is the scoop, as it were. The coffee is ok, about as good as Starbucks, not quite as good as Elkins Perk, BUT this place isn’t a franchise, it isn’t a chain. The owners put their own money into the place and they are learning as they go. I’m sure that in time the place will work out kinks like limited seating, inefficient use of space, and a line of snacks right out of a convenience store.
The baked and prepared foods are good. The location is good if you are close by, not good if you live in Delaware county. The coffee is good on an absolute scale, but on a comparative scale with the best places in the Philly area it’s just ok.

I can taste all the love! Such bubbly and wonderful culinary technicians. Today the Rosemary/​Balsamic BlackBerry Chicken wrap, almost knocked my taste buds out of this world w/​that jalepeno kick!
