Coffee House Too is all about the extras.

Derick Warren, owner of the coffee house that’s called the Fishtown area home for about a year and a half, said customers get a complimentary mimosa with every breakfast order on the weekends, and a free glass of wine with every lunch sandwich.

Not to mention that any lucky dogs that come in with their owners will snag a slice of bacon.

“No matter how busy it is, we treat each person like they are number one,” Warren said.

One of the coffee house’s best sellers, he said, is the “Hangover Hoagie,” a three-egg monster sandwich sure to tackle any morning blues with cheddar, hash browns, garlic butter and choice of meat on a long roll.

The coffee house also makes its own potato chips as well as smoothies, protein shakes and specialty drinks in addition to coffee.

Though the coffee shop only offers takeout, customers hang out and chow down at tables on the shop’s sidewalk.

Warren said he and his staff truly care about keeping Coffee House Too a friendly place.

“We’re all dysfunctional, there’s no cliques,” he said. “We’re all real.”
