Lovers and Madmen opens in West Philly
Caffeinated cheers to Aaron Ultimo of the coming-soon Brew/Ultimo Coffee, who reported on his blog that Lovers and Madmen debuted this weekend at 40th and Ludlow.
The coffee shop, which Meal Ticket first mentioned in February, carries Counter Culture espresso and coffee (French press, of course). Anyone who's tried this stuff at Spruce Street Espresso, the only other caf� the North Carolina-based roaster currently supplies, knows that it is the truth.
Right now for eats, they've got pastries and the like from Michael Dolich's Four Worlds, but the options will expand in the coming months; movie nights and art shows are in the works, too. There's free WiFi; they're currently cash only but should have their credit card system up and running within the next week.
Hours: Mon.-Sat., 7 a.m.-7 p.m.; Sun., 8 a.m.-6 p.m.

Now they've got baked goods from Under the Oak Cafe. Yum. Great place, highly recommend it!
