What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Regrettably, this establishment operates on a cash-only basis and does not provide an on-site ATM. Guests are directed to a nearby corner store, which is conveniently within walking distance, to access an ATM. It might be more practical for a cash-only business to offer an ATM on its premises. Upon our visit, all tables were occupied due to the compact size of the interior. We were offered seating at the counter, which we accepted without issue. While the prices are somewhat elevated, the food was delicious. My son particularly enjoyed the Strawberry Crème Brûlée French Toast, proclaiming it the best he has ever tasted, likening its flavor to that of a strawberry cheesecake. Currently, the only non-pork option is turkey bacon; perhaps considering turkey or chicken sausage alternatives would be beneficial. Freshly squeezed orange juice is available for $5, served in a small, child-sized glass."
"GLUTEN FREE FRENCH TOAST AVAILABLE! Was not indicated on the menu as far as I could tell, but just ask! Very lovely staff, great food, and wonderful vibes. Latte was a bit burnt, but otherwise no complaints."
"We just had the best Breakfast Brunch ever here . It’s a cute cafe in Queen Village , with indoor and outdoor seating in a quiet little neighborhood. The staff was very attentive , service was fast and hot, and the food was perfect. I had a great breakfast burrito and my wife had egg whites w spinach and feta, both of which were served hot and quick. The coffee was great , and the potatoes were hot and crispy like we asked for."
"We try new places about every 2 weeks. Today , Fitzwater Cafe vaulted to #1. It was that good from old school South Philly decor (ceilings and floors) , charm , and ambiance but more important presentation and taste of our brunch. We had the Chicken Cutlet Burrata , Bella Vista Frittata , Vanilla ice brew , a wonderful fruit concoction drink , and coffee. All were very good to excellent. We highly recommend this experience."
"I had a party of two. Arrived there at around lunchtime. The wait was about 15 to 20 mins. They only accept cash. There's a sign posted as soon as you walk in. The staff and patron are really pleasant. I ordered the strawberry crunch waffle with scrambled eggs. I must say it was 10/10. I'd definitely recommend and get it again. My wife ordered pancakes, scrambled eggs, and home fries. 8/10 only because the pancakes tasted like they came out of a frozen box and not made from scratch. Overall, it was truly a great place and will definitely be going back."
"Everything was perfect (!) No wait time at the end of Sunday Brunch window, excellent food, excellent service, excellent prices, and .... parking on site."
