Having felt the fatiguing effects of a brunch bourbon (judge me not, it was brunch!), it was the perfect time to take a quick stroll and discover a whimsical little coffee shop called Cake and the Beanstalk.
Cake and the Beanstalk
1112 Locust St
Philadelphia, PA 19107
Neighborhood: Washington Square West
The colors were bright and cheery, the sizes were silly, and the chairs provided a wee bit of entertainment.
Oh how happy was I to see Lucy the Margate elephant again…this time on a cute, little chair!
Of course there had to be a chair routing for the hometown team.
I was also partial to the Queen, not for any power issues, just the alliteration…I swear!
So if you’re looking to satisfy your adult need for caffeine and your inner child’s need for color and playfulness, Cake and the Beanstalk is the perfect place! And the drinks are good too (sorry we didn’t have room for cake after the beautiful garden brunch)!
