Weekly Special - India Monsoon Malabar
August 5th - August 11th
Originating from the mountainous regions of Mysore Coorg, India, this coffee undergoes a unique process that mimics the natural conditions of 18th-century sea voyages. Exposed to the humid monsoon winds, the beans transform, developing a mellow, smooth profile with notes of baker’s chocolate, creamy textures, and a hint of molasses. Experience a brew that’s rich in history and flavor, harvested at elevations of 1220 to 1524 meters.
Notes:Â Bakers' chocolate, molasses, creamy

Roasting small batches
Since 1985!
Old City Coffee was founded by Ruth Isaac in 1985 as a one-person operation. The original location at 221 Church Street in Philadelphia offered freshly-roasted, Arabica beans, brewed coffee, espresso drinks and brewing accessories. Our original mission to supply the public with freshly roasted high-grade coffees, combined with excellent service and competitive pricing, has not changed. This simple but successful formula has been the framework for our continued growth.
Still Roasting Tiny Batches
Our history may be big, but we're still proudly local and roasting tiny batches in the heart of Philadelphia.
