ReAnimator Coffee Philadelphia: Reviews & Ratings

The best ReAnimator location. It's in a cool old building on Fish Town. Plus, it isn't very hard at all to find free street parking. The baristas are friendly and awesome at what they do. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on the fancy stuff. ReAnimator is a shop where you can get a cup of drip and a shot of espresso and enjoy it MORE than you would a flavored latte, etc. Branch out of your comfort zone and let the coffee speak for itself. My favorite shop in Philly. Hands down.

It’s like two blocks from the main strip, totally worth the walk. They have mugs and can make a great coffee, with pumping AC and nice people.

Reanimator is one of my favorite places to get a latte in the neighborhood! They have a super convenient pick up window and offer online or in person ordering. They rotate their flavored lattes depending on the season, all with house made syrups. The one down side is that there is only one size latte (pictured) and I could drink a much larger size because they’re that good! They also offer great milk alternatives, including my favorite, oat milk.

A great spot for decent cold brew and black coffee. Their salted vanilla latte is my favorite treat. As a pet owner I appreciate the free treats and that my pup can wait for my order inside with me!

One the best coffee shops in Philly. It's on the small side for seating but I don't usually hang out. There is outdoor seating during warmer weather.

Pretty good place for third wave speciality coffee if you are into good coffee that is. Visited this roaster a few times in the last 6 years. Quality of coffee is pretty decent. However, during my last visit in January 2025, the barista reminded me thrice during my conversation with him that they were going to close in an hour! An hour is a long time and we were just ordering 3 espressos. He kept smiling though all the time. But both me and my son, we were a little put off by his reminder that they were closing in an hour despite his smile. Also bought a bag of single origin Ethiopia that did not turn out great for Pour Over but pretty good on an espresso. Edit: January 19th, 2025.
