Passero's Coffee Roasters

A good selection of healthy breakfast options to get started with one's day and lovely coffee, shining with care and passion for perfection and style. All served with smile, attention to detail and, not least important - patience for natural tourist indecisiveness. I also loved the nice and clearly curated interior and the playlist of some mellow jazz. Five star, top to bottom with no reservations!

Stopped by this cafe, overall great atmosphere and staff. The bacon, egg, and cheese bagel was fresh and delicious. I ordered a three shot cappuccino, which unfortunately wasn’t my favourite but open to trying this place again some time soon.

The place is cozy and has a pleasant atmosphere. The service is excellent, and the staff is friendly, which makes you want to come back. I usually visit this place to eat the lentil soup, which is delicious. On Fridays, they have clam chowder soup, which I have ordered on several occasions. The first time I had it, it was very good, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. However, the last time I ordered it, the soup was not hot and the potatoes were hard. So, of all the soups I have tried on their menu, I would say the lentil soup is the best. The coffee they make is also very good, as is the vegan banana bread. Overall, I have enjoyed my visits to this place and have always found it to be a peaceful and quiet place to sit and eat.

My New Go-To Coffee Spot in Center City Fantastic customer service— as soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted by 2–3 staff members. The coffee is fresh with a great variety, and the food selection is extensive. The mini fresh bagels and pastries looked incredibly fresh, and I really appreciated that they take their time properly toasting the bagels and spreading the cream cheese or butter—something many places rush through. They also have one of the largest selections of coffee creamers I’ve seen in the city, easily comparable to my favorites like La Colombe and Madis Coffee (University City). I had a great conversation with one of the female staff members who gave me helpful tips on their daily-brewed coffee and even let me sample a small cup of their Honduras medium roast, which was excellent. I think I’ve finally found my favorite coffee stop for my weekday walk to work—other places have fallen off. This definitely won’t be my last visit, and I’ll be recommending this spot to my coworkers.

The two people working this morning (11/25/25) were SO friendly and welcoming. They treated each customer like they were the only one there, but also were respectful of the other customers waiting and their time. I was having a hard time deciding what I wanted and they were friendly and funny about it, didn't make me feel rushed, and still managed to take care of the woman behind me while I hemmed and hawed over what I wanted. I just wanted to come on and give a positive review for them - they made my day better. The latte and Australian bites I finally decided on were delish too.

what a great coffee shop! it really has everything that I personally look for in a coffee shop, especially great coffee, super kind staff, and a really welcoming + cozy atmosphere! I got a medium drip coffee and a power burrito (egg, spinach, avocado, feta) and both really hit the spot. can't wait to come back!

Everyone who works here is so genuinely kind to everyone that walks through the door! They are so sunshine-y and it makes the whole cafe feel so wholesome and homey. Plus the coffee makes the cafe smell amazing! My latte and sandwich was so good too!! Loved my experience here. Definitely will be coming back.

Charming coffee shop with comfortable seating, both indoors and out, and genuine, friendly service. Pricing is better than most, treats are delicious, overhead music is blessedly at an appropriate volume. The experience is worth going out of your way for. Oh, and the coffee—scrumptious!
