Decidedly Better Coffee

Great baristas embrace their responsibility to create the perfect cup of coffee.

The Baristas

Coffee As Art

Exceptional Coffee Comes From Exceptional People

We cultivate a passionate group of well-trained, highly knowledgeable baristas who care about every detail that goes into making fantastic coffee — one cup at a time. In fact, you could say they don’t just love coffee; they live it.

Capri

Capri recently celebrated her 1-year barista-versary. Her favorite drink is hot chocolate, and her passions include singing and reading (in fact, she has enough books to fill a small library!).

Tim

Tim, a barista for 1.5 years, has an affinity for single-origin pourovers. Not only is he a great dancer — he’s also an aspiring professional musician, singer, and songwriter.

Rachael

During her 3 years of working as a barista, Rachael has developed a deep love of macchiato. In her spare time, she works as a photographer for social justice groups in Philly. Fun fact: She once spent 2 weeks living in a tent in Tanzania while studying the social behavior of baboons.

Luna

After 8 years honing her barista skills, Luna’s specialty has become the flat white. A performer that specializes in flow arts, she has also been fire spinning for 5 years.

Liz

With 6 years under her barista belt, Liz has developed an affinity for a mean dirty chai. In her spare time, she sings in a FUNK band. Fun fact: She can also recite the Greek alphabet.

Marisa

A barista since “the beginning of time,” Marisa studies and works at PAFA, and aspires to one day study art in Berlin. In the meantime, she is elevating the almond milk latte to an art form of its own.

Marie

A lover of macchiatos, pourovers, and the NFL (she hopes to write for them one day), Marie has spent 4 years honing her mad barista skills. Fun fact for Parks and Recreation fans: Her spirit animal is April Ludgate.

Daniel

This 2-year barista veteran is also a grad student pursuing a master’s degree in history. When Daniel is not pulling flat whites for his favorite customers or hitting the books, he can be found playing one of seven musical instruments!

Elizabeth

While she may be a relative “newbie” with only 6 months of barista experience, Elizabeth is no stranger to the world of java: She was raised on a Kenyan coffee and tea farm. She’s now partial to Kenyan SL28 and SL34 varietals — and can speak English, Swahili, and Gîkuyû.

Andrew

Andrew, who has grown quite fond of red eye espresso-coffee blends in his 8 years as a barista, also enjoys skating and playing the drums.

Kane

In Kane’s 4 years behind the coffee counter, he has become an aficionado of the iced latte. In his free time, he studies massage therapy and makes electronic music.

Leathia

In her impressive 11-year barista run, Leathia has developed a strong attachment to iced caramel mochas (who can blame her?). Other fun facts: She also loves to sing and give hugs.

La Marzocco machines: pressure and temperature perfected in Italy since 1927

The Machine

A Passion for the Perfect cup

The Legendary La Marzocco

Based in Florence, Italy, La Marzocco provides us with direct access to the best espresso machines in the world. These high-end, handcrafted works of art consistently provide an unparalleled cup of espresso.

Sourced from a family-run farm in Nicaragua.

The Beans

Thoughtful Sourcing

Meet Henry

We’re committed to sourcing 100% Arabica beans through a direct trade relationship with La Virgen Coffee Estates in Nicaragua and a single coffee grower named Henry Hueck. We stand firmly behind Henry, inspired by his dedication to creating a higher quality coffee — and a better quality of life in his community through improved education and healthcare.

Menus

The Flat White

“The flat white is the perfect marriage of espresso and steamed milk. Other drinks simply mix the two components, but the flat white blends them together in a way that sets it apart from the rest.”

—Ken
