Char & Stave - Coffee shop in Ardmore - 21 Rittenhouse Pl, USA

What an experience coming here, from the friendly staff to the warmth smell of coffee with the music! There’s so many selection of coffee to choose from, and I doubt you’ll have a hard time choosing with the help from the staff. You won’t be disappointed coming here.

My boyfriend and I have been coming here for more than a year now, and cannot get enough of this place, their beans, their syrups, their lattes, and their craft cocktails. The staff is friendly, creative, and always cheerful. Despite having had consistent 5 star service, today was above and beyond, so I had to showcase the artistry and attention to detail these guys put out on a simple blueberry iced latte. Can’t say enough good things - try this place!!!

Amazing drinks!! The pastries are really good too. Several nights my friends and I came and the place had live music. Also, perfect study spot especially due to its late hours. Best part is how long the plays stays open, very practical!!

Between the bean and the brew, best Cortado I’ve had in Philly thus far. Close contender at any rate. To their credit, they serve theirs in dish-ware (as oppose to the shops that are still using single use cups for on-premise service), and with a side of sparkling. Highly recommend. I’ll be back.

What a cutesy coffee shop. Customer service was prompt abs welcoming. Internet service was pretty sketchy for me, so couldn't get any work done. The latte was yummy and they didn't growl at me when I asked for a tad bit more vanilla syrup. Great assortment of alcoholic beverages, can't wait to take one home and try it out. Croissants were available, which I loved. I didn't try one, but i will next time. Definitely would revisit.

Talk about a happy accident! The only reason I stopped in here was to get coffee, and this was the only non-corporate coffee shop that I saw open in the area. To my surprise, it served non-alcoholic coffee cocktails! I got a bourbon barrel aged espresso "old fashioned" which replaced bourbon with a shot of espresso made from beans aged in bourbon barrels. It was very very good, and was quite a surprise. My girlfriend got a lavender espresso cocktail that was also quite good. The baristas were very nice, and the vibe was super cozy. I really enjoyed stopping in here, it was a huge surprise to see the non-alcoholic cocktails. It's hugely welcome to a sober person!

Love, love, love this place for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening! The counter staff are friendly and incredible! Beware Tuesday night, however, when Quizzo takes over and the “Quizzo Master” thinks that “Red, Red Wine” is a Bob Marley song then yells at you for pointing out it is originally a Neil Diamond song that the great Bob Marley never sang! Word of advice, if you play the UB40 version, then maybe that should be the only acceptable answer. It might save some embarrassment.

This place is new and very cute. Customer service was nice and welcoming. I generally like bold, dark, nutty coffee roasts. I ordered the nitro cold brew and it turned out to be more fruity/acidic. The problem is that it can cause milk to curdle which mine did, it was almond milk. When the milk curdles, it obviously doesn't mix well and then all you taste is the coffee... The beignet was delicious. I would go back and try the cocktails. My friend ordered a coffee whiskey drink, that she enjoyed and finished.
