In December of 2017 Ultimo Coffee Rittenhouse opened just off of historic Rittenhouse park. March of 2019 saw the opening of a large café and bakery in the heart of Germantown. Since first opening, Ultimo Coffee has been committed to brewing and serving the best coffee they can while serving and getting to know four really fantastic neighborhoods.
