PHILADELPHIA, PA - While founded on a deep love for specialty coffee, Madis Coffee Roasters' new location in Old City (601 Walnut Street, inside The Curtis) offers more than exceptional brews. This second Philadelphia outpost functions as a stylish all-day cafe, boasting an extensive menu of breakfast items, sandwiches, salads, and bowls, served in a welcoming, European-inspired atmosphere. It's poised to become a go-to spot for everything from a quick morning bite to a leisurely lunch or a comfortable remote work session.
Madis Old City Provides Delicious Options Throughout The Day:
- Breakfast Favorites: Start your morning with classics like Egg & Cheese Sandwiches (on croissants or bagels), Bagels with Cream Cheese, or Madis French Toast. Try the Eggs in Purgatory (soft fried eggs in tomato sauce) or hearty 3-egg Omelettes for something more substantial. The English Muffin Breakfast Sandwich with turkey sausage and bacon jam stands out.

Options include Smoked Ham & Gouda, Roasted Turkey, a Mediterranean Baguette with prosciutto and burrata, Smoked Salmon, Grilled Chicken, Roast Beef, and even a Chickpea Salad sandwich for vegetarians. Don't miss the classic Tuna Melt or Avocado/Hummus Toast.
- Fresh Salads & Bowls: Lighter options include flavorful salads like the Kale Caesar, Arugula Cherry Tomato, Madis Mixed Green, and Beet Salad. Try the Harissa Hot Honey Chicken Bowl or the vegetarian Korean Kale Crunch Bowl for a more complete meal.
Atmosphere: Modern Meets Historic, Perfect for Gathering
The cafe's design blends the modern industrial feel with the historic grandeur of The Curtis building. Lush greenery, warm wood accents, and unique red cargo doors create an inviting space. The indoor/outdoor setup offers flexibility, making it an ideal spot to sit and gather with friends, catch up on work, or enjoy the ambiance.

Of course, the excellent coffee program that Madis is known for remains a central feature, perfectly complementing the food menu with everything from drip coffee and pour-overs to a full range of espresso beverages.
