La Va Cafe

Very slow service but I got the roast beef panini and it was delicious! If I go back I definitely want to try their raspberry mocha

Try the Chicken Platter - Chicken and #humus platter at La Va 22nd and South #food #lunch #philadelphia #philly

Nice little coffee house on South Street. Furnished like a living room with Wi-Fi, but you have to ask for password.

Bulgarian pastry is very good. European vintage atmosphere make for a nice change from other cafés .

They brew La Columbe, which is reason enough to come in! Charming atmosphere, funky old armchairs and couches , great atmosphere. Good for a first date.

Relaxed atmosphere with cool armchairs and a fantastic music playlist. Great for the studious.

The almond croissant is too die for, and I love the non 'Starbuckian' choices of tea . Graduate Hospital could use about 3 more of these places.

Had the hummus platter ! It was a. Maze. Ing. Be careful tho, the olives have pits! I wasn't paying attention and went for one and BOOM ouch! The coffee is flavorful and staff is patient!!!!

La.va Cafe - yes, that's L-A DOT V-A - is doing coffee , pastries , and light Israeli-style snacks . Read more

Very cozy spot . They have surprisingly decent middle eastern dishes.

Chai is delicious - ask for it half and half (half vanilla , half spice).

Sadly not many decaf drinks, and average quality food. Friendly servers , but there are better coffee shops in the city I think.

Get the vanilla chai latte . It's amazing!

Bagels was tasty. Other than that I didn't see the big deal. Also know that there is a 10 minimum on credit cards.

Don't forget $10 minimum for card for your $4.86 latte .

The hot sauce is awesome and staff are super nice

ask for the hot sauce ; it's a spicy pesto-like delight.

If you're looking for an apt or home, stop by across the street at OCF (they're always at La Va anyway)

Price is little high compared to food.

Try the Cappuccino - Foamy, frothy, nice!!!

The apple cider is delish!!!!

Great coffee and delicious pastries

Pargeyot sandwich was delicious!

Three words: Pesto . Breakfast . Sandwich .

Standby cafe space

I hate this place with a passion. The only redeeming thing is that they have La Colombe coffee . Food is expensive and mediocre, $10 minimum on cards, and for some reason, it's always crowded .

Great relaxing and quiet cafe . Good food, good staff , and free wi fi . Ask for the password.

They don't brew decaf coffee

mmmm. chai tea on a crisp fall day!

Try the Burekas

Wifi today is springfever (one word)

Had a perfect latte ....
