About The Shop

Uncle Bobbie's Coffee & Books is a Coffee Shop and Bookstore located in the heart of the Germantown section of Philadelphia. Founded by Marc Lamont Hill in 2017, Uncle Bobbie's was created to provide underserved communities with access to books and a space where everyone feels valued. In addition to our specially curated book selection, we also serve high quality coffee, food products, and more, including apparel and children's games. We are also a community space that holds free author talks, workshops, and other events, including weekly story time for kids and back to school drives.
