CravePhilly: La Colombe in Fishtown is unique to local coffee shop scene

La Colombe's flagship café sits in a large, industrial, Euro-style space in the heart of Fishtown.

La Colombe's flagship café sits in a large, industrial, Euro-style space in the heart of Fishtown.

Whether you're looking for a solo snack or some lively company, this café features a cool interior, complete with comfy banquettes and communal tables that will suit any type of coffee-drinker. But you won't find wifi in this coffeehouse so bring a book, some overdue paperwork or a good friend.

Two imported french ovens turn out stellar breads and pastries while the kitchen serves up salads, sandwiches and wood oven baked skillet specials, pizzas, and tarts.

La Colombe roasts its own coffee and distills its own signature Different Drum rum on premises. So grab a bite and a cup of something good.
