Cafe Lift: Breakfast Delights

Philadelphians love brunch and Cafe Lift serves up a delicious array of breakfast favorites. An oasis in a fairly deserted area, Cafe Lift exudes a hip, industrial aura entered into through a freight lift (hence the moniker). Entrees here run around $8 and the offerings are the typical treats you crave in the morning with a fresh twist. Egg dishes include the Jens Crespelle (scrambled eggs in a crepe smothered in maple syrup) and fried egg paninos: two fried eggs, veggies, and cheese nestled in a warmed panini. The sweet stuff is particularly enticing: you can try lemon ricotta pancakes, cannoli french toast, and nutty monkey crespelle! Lunch offerings include fairly standard and inexpensive paninis and salads. It’s best to visit Cafe Lift in the morning for their breakfast selection. Unlike many Philly brunch places, this cafe is still a hidden gem — so the time you'll wait for a table will be brief!
