50 Best Coffee Shops near Allison Park

“Great coffee and gluten free options.“

“Friendly staff. Nice local option for good coffee.“

“Working with the public in fast food is a difficult job. The staff at this McDonald's is always pleasant and kind. They tell you to have a good day and to be safe on the road. They ask how you are doing today. They understand customer service. Many of these workers appear to be close to retirement or past retirement and I am sure their days are long but they treat their customers like human beings. McDonald's is not a gourmet meal, but this McDonald's has 5 star service. It is appreciated. Thank you.“

“This is an amazing meeting spot for breakfast,lunch or coffee. The food is amazing and the vibe is so vibrant and full of good energy. Everone is absolutely adorable. I recommend stopping in you won't be disappointed.“

“Great coffee & variety of specials, served by good people. Run by long-time members of the artist/musician/performing community, and genuinely awesome folks.“

“Absolutely a must stop. They get top notch beans imported from all over the world! The flavors and aromas are bar none. I love the fact they are involved with the local community! Great people!“

“Visited this morning for the first time. Got egg and cheese sandwiches, one croissant one ciabatta - both were amazing!! The lattes were delicious and rich. You can really taste the quality of the espresso. They were short staffed (1 employee who was grinding hard!) so I did wait about 25 minutes for two coffees and sandwiches. I didn’t mind that much and it was well worth the wait. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great drinks and great service all the time!“

“baristas always go above and beyond 🤤🥐☕“

“Love the food, delicious, fresh, authentic. Atmosphere is really cute. My only complaint is the service is typically exceedingly slow- think up to 30+ minutes for a sandwich even without a line. Best way to go is to order online well ahead of time if you don’t feel like waiting for a while.“

“What an awesome spot! It has everything, coffee, breakfast, lunch and so much more. When you arrive you never want to leave! Everyone is super friendly and helpful. I can’t wait to go back.“

“The workers take such good care of these cats & truly make sure they’re going to be in the best hands. It’s so admirable to see the team work so tirelessly out of the goodness of their own heart. I greatly reccomend them!“

“Such a rare find. Excellent coffee with the most helpful, kind staff. We won’t buy our coffee anywhere else!“

“I truly go out of my way just to stop here. Carly and Jen are my Chillin besties and I adore them so much. Amazing drinks and good food.“

“The Lemon Rose Iced Latte was very refreshing. Perfect combination of two very unexpected flavors. The cinnamon roll with the buttercream was equally delicious . I’m so glad I googled coffee near me while we were at Shadyside hospital.“

“I studied and worked remotely from this location many times from 2021 - 2025. The atmosphere of the Wexford location is unparalleled by any other coffee place I've been to. The plants, the decor, the engaging baristas, delicious coffee, tasty blueberry muffins, and the overall positive and relaxing vibe drew me back over and over again. I have nothing but positive things to say about this place, the people who work there, and those who own and govern the business. I haven't been to the other locations, but I'm sure they are excellent, too. :) So, go grab a coffee, get into gardening via one of the many plants for sale, and have a good time.“

“On my walk to get my favorite little donuts I get every time I’m home in PGH, I saw this little coffee shop. My husband’s flight kept getting delayed so I decided to stop in here after I got my donuts. I thought I would grab and go but decided to take a seat to kill some time. My drink was so good, and I loved the vibe of this place. They had a little dance party while I was there. I wanted to take a video but thought it might be weird. I’ll definitely be by to visit whenever I’m home. So glad my husbands flight kept getting delayed so I could discover this new favorite place 💕“

“This is without a doubt that best coffee I’ve had in Pittsburgh. I go pretty much every weekend and the quality is always great. They are busy, but for good reason obviously, the coffee is great! I’ve always had good service here and love this gem on the Southside.“

“Might be the only spot to serve Syrian coffee in PGH! They are the only one in the Strip to do so when I visited. We had come early in the morning so no one else was there and we had a nice chat with the owner!

The coffee was excellent and for a good price too.“

“Fantastic tea and hip atmosphere.. A++“

“Best coffee on Walnut Street! The mango frappe is also awesome.“

“biscuits and gravy slaps, their burritos slap, they have a wild amount of drink options. The dining room is typically always clean, they do get packed sometimes because of how good they can be. They worked very hard to get where they are in the industry here in the 719. make sure to support your local businesses no matter what! This place had dreams of being a restraunt and made it happen!“

“NO WIFI - NOT IDEAL FOR REMOTE WORKING.

This is a nice coffee shop with a simple menu, decent seating, and in-house roasted beans, but no WiFi and I don’t believe there is a public restroom.

I’d advise looking elsewhere if you’re looking to sit down for a while and work on your laptop, study, and so on.

Not bad in a pinch if you have a mobile hotspot and need a seat with an outlet.“

“Fantastic tea and hip atmosphere.. A++“

“Coffee is great, staff is great, birds are great. 11/10“

“Good Service and offer many good choices. If you like coffee and tea this is the place for you. 😊“

“It’s such a cute coffee shop! Friendly employees. ♥️“

“Hands down the best coffee beans I've ever had. Awesome staff, very friendly people, they make my day whenever I visit. Cacao is also uniquely amazing. They offer traditional Colombian flavors (like that panela syrup), delicious arepas and empanadas, as well as tasty pastries. I love this place. Haven't had anything like it, makes me want to visit Colombia to explore the flavors. I'm going to miss it when I leave.“

“Stopped here because I was a nearby comic store. It’s a great place to get lunch and read. I enjoyed the Star Wars theme and decorations, plus some Kiss stuff. I’ll definitely return for other baked goods and bagels, but I couldn’t resist the banh mi. I should have ordered two! Updated from previous review on 2026-02-23“

“LOVE delanies ss :) their iced tiramisu latte w/ almond milk was my go to in the summer!! and the baristas are always so sweet and considerate;; they would ask each time if i wanted the heavy cream on top since i got nondairy milk like 🥹 10000% recommend the drinks and vibes here ✨🧡🧋“

“It’s such a cute coffee shop! Friendly employees. ♥️“

“I stopped in last night, there were two young ladies behind the bar that didn't acknowledge my presence. But when I came in there was a young man sweeping the floor because it was almost closing time and he put the broom down and came behind the bar to wait on me. He's the superstar in this story! Even after he got my drink, the young ladies behind the bar never made eye contact with me. Hard to believe you can go to a place in East Liberty and be treated as if you are invisible.“

“Really cool and sustainable repurposing of an old Moose Lodge. Caught a meeting where the mission was being explained to another group, and it was awesome to hear about the concept. Egg sandwich is incredible, reminded me of the quality of food I experienced living abroad and brought back many happy memories, but at an affordable price- $12 for a large decaf, build your own egg sandwich with double the eggs and a bit of fresh fruit on the side. Was awesome to sit and feel like a person on the two days I visited and the staff was incredibly talented in addition to wonderful energy. Everyone who worked here loved their job and it showed! (To clarify that's exactly what I mean by the quality of food experienced abroad- happy food made by happy people.) Also a really cool co-working space.“

“In town visiting with family - coffee is a necessity to begin any day. Big Dog Coffee is exactly what we needed. Relaxed atmosphere- great coffee and fabulous pastries and sweets. If you’re in Pittsburgh- definitely stop by and support local small business. ☕️“

“Great place great coffee and food“

“I really enjoy their coffee and breakfast sandwiches“

“Great tasting coffee with the most pleasant service! A must visit for anyone in the area!“

“Great cafe with lovely food and drinks! The coziness of the interior makes it a great spot to relax, study/work, and hang out! Plus, the pastries all look amazing, especially the pies, but I’d also recommend the breakfast sandwich, which was one of the best ones I’ve had in awhile! The egg is super fluffy and the cheese they use went so perfectly, every bite was addicting.

Definitely will be coming back to try some of their pastries, and a crowd favorite especially for students, love it!“

“Here in Pittsburgh for the weekend from Atlanta, Fet Fisk was high on the itinerary. They knocked it out of the park! Everyone was dressed for Halloween. Riley was our server and he was a gem. Attentive without being overbearing. The drinks were lovely. The pate was delicious to start, as was the caviar. The chantrelle mushrooms with the lignonberries? So savory and incredible. Now the standouts.. the rainbow trout and spaetzle. UH-MAZING! The espresso gin and tonic? Killer.

Overall, 20/10 stars! Thanks everyone!“

“Always enjoy the coffee, the young lady working this Sunday morning is always pleasant and super swift! Appreciate her“

“After a long cold walk up and down the neighborhood hills today, this was the PERFECT stop! Great latte and the lox sandwich was perfection! Staff was just as wonderful. I will def be back!“
