Philadelphia’s Madis Coffee Roasters recently graduated beyond a single cafe in University City with the opening of a second shop in the heart of Old City, with plans for more in the works. The approximately 4,600-square foot new cafe and roastery inside the historic Curtis Publishing building was designed to blend Philadelphia’s industrial heritage with classic European coffeehouse charm. Black steel skeleton walls and floor-to-ceiling glass panels flood the roastery with natural light, giving customers a front-row seat to production roasting.
