“ Food, drink, and coffee are superb, Service, quality, and hospitality are the best in the twin. Yes your reputation is true. I be back from time to time. ”
“ Went at 1230 on a Sunday and got sat right away. Very cute little place with prompt service and delicious food. Places like this are essential for a good neighborhood. Give me more like this! Also Joan doesn't know what she's talking about about, she didn't even eat probably gave it a bad review because she was hangry. Get it together Joan! This place rocks. ”
“ I was looking for a great breakfast spot in the area and someone mentioned the Dutch. I looked over the menu and was impressed! Once there I had the internal debate of a baby Dutch pancake or breakfast sandwich, my heart wanted the pancake but I needed something a little more filling with the days agenda. I’ll have to comeback for the Dutch baby pancake another day. The weather outside was perfect for outside seating and it felt great sipping on coffee after scarfing down the meal. ”
“ This is easily one of the top brunch spots in Philly—highly recommended! We arrived a bit late, about an hour before closing, and although there was a short 10-minute wait, we were able to get a table. Our server was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. They helped us with a high chair and ensured the car seat was safely placed, which we really appreciated. We ordered the Steak and Eggs and the Savory Scallion Waffle, along with both hot and iced lattes. Everything was fantastic. The steak was perfectly cooked, the eggs were just right, and the house potatoes and toast rounded out the dish beautifully. That said, the Savory Scallion Waffle was the clear standout—our favorite by far. The scallion-studded gravy with chipped beef added a rich texture and flavor that really impressed us. We’re already looking forward to coming back and trying more from their menu! IG: journey_man16 ”
“ Went to Dutch for their Valentine’s Day dinner earlier this year, and I’ve taken forever to do the review for them but here it is: I can’t begin to express just how exquisite that this food was! Every course (see the included photo for the full menu) was top-notch, and it felt so luxury. My husband and I don’t usually do expensive restaurant meal experiences like this, but it was our first Valentine’s Day as a married couple so we figured we’d try something new. We’re glad that we did, and we’d certainly go back to Dutch for either experience dinners or normal brunch/dinner. My ONLY complaint was that they took forever just to start serving us (like, 35 minutes) food when everyone else around us was getting served in a more timely manner. I’m not sure why that is. But once they started serving us, they were great. ”
“ This is honestly one of my favorite brunch spots now. Great fast friendly service, you really can taste the quality of the food so you’re 100% getting what you pay for and its pretty affordable in my opinion. Great spot for a monday brunch! Deff check it out! Will be coming back! :) ”
“ 6/10/25...Had the chance to return here and so happy that we did. The service, the food, so very good. We had the corned beef Reuben with a side salad and a scallion waffle with creamed chipped beef. The food was served hot and was so very good. Look forward to more return visits. 8/18/22...our first time here at this location and we met Mattie, the bartender and Taylor, our server. The place is so very nice, the service was great and the food was incredibly good and flavorful. We had a double hamburger, a savory dutch pancake, creamed chipped beef over a waffle and I had a classic Reuben. We definitely will be returning. A most memorable lunch. Thank you! The place is so quaint! Breakfast was very nice. I had the special, a cheddar, bacon, apple omelet with the best house potatoes for a side. We also tried the pancake, which was light and fluffy. I would like to go back and try other items from the menu. ”
