Green Engine Coffee Co
16 Haverford Station Rd, Media, PA
Crema's Take
“Green Engine Coffee Co in Media is an espresso-focused spot that takes their craft seriously, crafting everything from perfectly balanced lattes to creative signature drinks that locals genuinely rave about. The vibe is cozy and welcoming—a place where you can settle in for a while, snag a rich, generously-portioned sandwich or pastry, and actually want to stay for a conversation or work session. Whether you're after a traditional americano or something more adventurous on their creative menu, the friendly service and quality ingredients keep people coming back, even if they've moved away from Pennsylvania.”

The special "Sammie" was awesome. Could only finish half of it, so rich! Yummy!
Pretty tasty! Had a chocolate croissant and an americano, both were good. Quite busy inside which made it difficult to find seating. Friendly service.
This is a very cute coffee shop. The menu has something for everyone, whether that’s food or drink. I found the latte to be somewhat milky though. Next time I’ll get an additional shot added. The service is excellent, unless they’re busy, then expect to wait. There is a good amount of seating, but it fills up quickly. The prices are higher than some other places in the area. You have to try their version of a Pop-Tart. Parking can be a pain.
I believe we had at trip or two here while still living in PA, but I guess I never reviewed it. We were in the area for a quick, overnight work trip. I had Green Engine marked down for a coffee. Since I happened to be in the area later in the day, I went with a “lighter” coffee drink, their espresso mule. It was unique, but something nice for an afternoon treat. You have a little bitterness from the espresso, but then some sweetness from the ginger beer at the end. I also grabbed an onion and cheese scone as a snack for my wife. Good texture and flavor. The staff was super friendly and it’s a great place to hang out and relax.
Easily one of the best coffee shops I’ve ever been to. The latte was phenomenal (decaf half-sweet vanilla latte with oat milk), and the food was outstanding—cashew butter toast with jam and figs, plus a breakfast wrap I can’t quite remember the name of, haha. 10/10 recommend. (*I partially ate the food before taking the video/photo, so that’s why it looks a little off, and I downed the latte before as well, ha!) The atmosphere was great—loved the bar seating by the window, and the chairs were actually a good size, not too small. The music was nice, and the service was awesome. The two guys at the counter and the barista who made my drink were all super kind. This is definitely my new go-to work spot. 🔥 Oh, and definitely try the pastries!
