Best real latte in the county in my humble opinion. And great coffeecake ... get early before they run out. Adventurous soup menu, great workers... often local art on the walls.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I expected it to be mostly college student patrons given how close it is to Swathmore College but was pleasantly surprised to see a wide range of people from the community. The idea of community really captures the feel and spirit of Hobbs.

Cozy coffee shop in swarthmore. A block from the Inn at swarthmore. Coffee was ok. Cappuccino was overfilled with too much milk to espresso. Oh well. Not a great espresso cafe. More for coffee tea and lots of tables for laptop studying.

This was my first visit to Hobbs in years. I’m happy to experience a hardworking and friendly staff, even when they are a long line of customers. Great bagel and cold brew. Will make the trek out every time I visit PA.

Pretty good breakfast options for an affordable price. Packed during brunch hours.

I had a cappuccino and a scone. Coffee tasted over-roasted and stale, though the espresso was extracted well. The resulting cup was weak bodied with little depth and quite bitter with little acity. The milk was either understeamed or not whole milk, as it neither added complexity nor counterbalanced the burnt beans.
The scone was dense, bland, and demonstrated none of the characteristics of a scone. I can only think it was vegan, and if you think of it as its own treat instead of a scone it would be quite enjoyable.
What gave the Hobbs it's fourth star was the ambiance - it felt exactly what a coffee house ought to. The decor, the staff, and the pricing made me overlook the shortcomings and really enjoy myself.
