Saxbys Drexel University

the cold brew here has a reputation on this stretch of 34th street that you'd expect from a shop anchored in one of philadelphia's densest university corridors. drexel's campus keeps saxbys busy, but busy doesn't mean careless. the drinks hold up under that kind of pressure. if you're working through a long afternoon, the lattes are consistent enough to order twice without second-guessing yourself. saxbys as a brand sits in an interesting middle space, not a chain in the traditional sense, student-run at many locations, which means the culture of the place tends to feel more invested than a typical campus coffee stop. north 34th street moves fast, and this spot moves with it. start with the cold brew.
