A La Mousse has always been a go-to dessert place for us but we recently ordered a full size cake from them and the experience was just as wonderful. The customer service when we picked up the cake was excellent and friendly. The cake itself was delicious and they do custom decorations when requested. The cakes are a little pricey but they put a lot of detail and effort into each cake so it is definitely worth it!

No bathroom so don’t come with kids unless you like to tabletop change diapers. Luckily a neighboring store allows us to come in. With $7+ desserts I’m surprised they closed their bathroom and refuse to operate it.Great tasting deserts tho but you know if you need to do No 1, better find a tree in the alley.

Best iced latte Ive ever had. Also had the hazelnut cake. Absolutely delicious, not heavy, sweet, salty and crunchy in every bite. Cant wait to go back next time Im in the city!

This is one of the best places Philly has to offer. The coffee is fantastic and their green tea is some of the best matcha around. The cakes and sweets are all amazing and have amazing design. The cherry blossom syrup is a definite must try, have not seen this good outside of Asia. The 5 star streak continues for my new favorite best kept secret!

1st time came here due to being closer from Chinatown. Service was bad, price now expensive. Ordered a birthday cake but wasnt offered the plates,fork,etc that COMES free with purchase of big cake. I had to ask. Customer service didnt seem to care if not given tip.

Everything. Here. Is. Delicious. Its uncanny. Ive munched and sipped my way through the menu. Today was the matcha Cherry blossom and a green apple looking tart. The drink wasnt as sweet as some of the others. it tasted like matcha,and like 🍒, and like summertime. The food is very visually appealing and tasty!!

Highly recommend A La Mousse for desserts that are inventive and not too sweet! I prefer Asian desserts and this delivers. The animal shaped ones in particular are delish!

The matcha pastries were amazing. The latte was delicious too. The macaroons felt a bit pricy. $4 for a tiny macaron!

This place is *fantastic*! I never thought Id say a Green Tea Mille Crêpe could be better than Lady Ms, but this one was! They also have delicious coffee and ice cream to accompany it, and the cafe itself is so cute! Definitely a must-visit if youre in Center City!

So absolutely everything is kinda amazingly delightful.We walked in because some days demand sugar. And I am reluctant to walk out. The milk foam tea is a burst of Yes in your mouth and the desert we tried- Tearamisu - was adorable in presentation and taste!

Such a great place for desserts! We tried the tiramisu and mango mousse both of which were absolutely lip smacking. Will definitely recommend those. All the desseers looked so cute. Also the latte we had was one of the best in philly. Everything including the dishes and spoons give an upscale vibe,but the prices are very reasonable.The staff were really friendly and the overall Ambience was cute and cosy. Definitely coming back again.

I have been on the hunt for bubble tea in Graduate Hospital. This is the ONLY place in the area that has it and it is delicious! There are a variety of flavors (milk and non-milk), they use REAL fruit/mint and fill up the cup with boba. Its less expensive compared to tea shops in Chinatown, etc. and the employees could not be nicer. Highly recommend!

I really loved my strawberry cream cake! The cream was a little on the frozen side on the inside because they freeze the cake for an hour after baking, but it tasted like ice cream to me! The strawberries were fresh and I really loved it. The lady in the front noticed that the cake may have been frozen and came out to apologize and offer me another cake but I told her it was okay because I thought it was delicious! She then gave me a macaroon.My fiancé had the cheese cake and said it was very delicious! We shared a pomegranate strawberry lemonade bubble tea and it was so yummy. I never like bubbles in anything so it was a first!Thank you so much for the kindness the cake was really delicious and so was the macaroon! ❤️😍

Unfortunate that this place moved in two blocks from my house and that they are open late enough for me to send my husband there for impulse cake. Oh well that’s what cheat days are for I guess. If you have a weakness for creative, light, fresh (but actually extremely decadent) confections then you will love this place.

I have ordered a cake in the last minute by calling them, and they made it happen by going to the extent of adding it for me on uber eats, and the cake tasted so delicious. Thanks to the team and pastry chef who baked it. If you are confused what to order from them, go with Double chocolate mousse. It was so yum!!

Today I bought 5 different cakes from a la mousse for my family to enjoy as a pre Lenten treat. Every single one was absolutely delicious! The flavors were beautifully balanced and expertly made. I am a very good home baker, so I don’t frequently buy cakes at bakeries. I’m very glad I decided to try these! All the cakes were beyond anything I could make and worth every calorie. We shared all the flavors and everyone enjoyed them immensely. A la mousse reminds me of the cafes I knew when I lived in Vienna. I don’t know any praise higher than that! I recommend a la mousse highly.
