50 Best Cafes near Carnegie

“Very good food, the cinnamon buns are fire! (Totally recommend on your free time!)“

“Walking into the old post office feels like stepping back in time. The building is beautifully renovated, with charming side rooms that add to the cozy atmosphere. Everything is made fresh, and the coffee was absolutely amazing. Our breakfast sandwiches were delicious—hot, flavorful, and clearly made with care. We loved how dog-friendly it was, making it easy to pop in and out with your pup. The whole place has a warm, family-friendly vibe. Truly a hidden gem right in the heart of Carnegie!“

“Great place to watch the Steelers!“

“If you like a hometown, locally owned restaurant feel, this is a great place to visit. It has a bit of a Rustic / Grandma's kitchen vibe. Food is excellent! Omelettes are in my opinion stellar, with the proper amount of all ingredients. Bacon is awesome, thin and crispy, just how I like it! Pancakes are also excellent and super tasty. Overeasy eggs are also cooked perfectly. Carry and Barb are 2 of the best breakfast chefs I have had out, period.. As of 2023 I'm 50 years old so have had breakfast a ton of places locally and nationally. I live about 3 miles away from the restaurant location so since I discovered it I try to stop once or twice a week. Definitely one of Pittsburgh's hidden local neighborhood gems. It is one of those small local places where if you know how good it is, you KNOW, and remember....“

“Love this hidden little gem! Always loved chatting with the owners and workers, but always just passing through and got my coffee to go. Today my internet went out at home and I got to work there for a few hours - just the nicest people and great coffee!“

“We had the best time for my cousins Bachelorette tea party! The atmosphere was so cozy and all of the staff were friendly! We had the best time blending our own special tea! Danielle was the best host and so knowledgeable about all of the herbs we could pick from. Booking the event was easy and Danielle was able to answer any questions that we had before the event and during it as well. Would definitely recommend Abeille Voyante Tea for their tea party and amazing loose leaf tea!“

“It’s a really great place to stop on the way into the city through the West End. It’s not a nightmare to find parking in the morning, which makes it convenient for a contractor like myself. I’ve even walked over from the Supply house across the street.“

“I ate here yesterday !!! and could'nt get past the GUMBO. And that cornbread on the side, just made me do a MAMBO. Soon I looked down in dread as I lowered my head to see the bowl, empty,below. The quick thinker I am, to get out this jam, I just ordered four more to go! ( with peach cobbler and carrot cake for dessert).“

“First time here. Stopped by before work the other day since I heard so many great things and I was not disappointed. This place is awesome. I’m coming here more often for coffee and the flatbreads are amazing. The service was phenomenal. The girl who waited on me, I think her name was Lisa, was very nice, friendly and funny. She helped me decide on what to get and was very enthusiastic. Enjoyed my overall experience. Will definitely come back.“

“DELICIOUS! Lunch was fantastic! We had a California Burger, Chicken Sandwich, and a Caprese Sandwich, all were fantastic! Besides the incredibly memorable meal the service was top-notch. Everyone went above and beyond to make our visit relaxing and enjoyable. The whole staff was cheerful and accommodating. PS …get the PB Cookies, eat them as an appetizer even. yummy 😋“

“The best donuts and pastries made fresh every day! Friendly service and wonderful place to catch up with friends. What a treat and certainly a blessing!“

“Stopped here for a drink since I was in the area. I had the Vietnamese Cold Brew and it was really good. Unfortunately the location isn't convenient for me but I would visit again if I was in town. Great service as well!“

“It’s always crowded
I just moved back to BP
This is my 1st time at Al’s cafe
That’s a knife and fork burger
3rd time that has happened
And the bun was not toasted that needs fixed for all the burgers
And if i can make a suggestion
Add venison to the menu
It’s a log cabin style restaurant when you walk in
Pennsylvania has a deer problem so during hunting season add venison to the menu
The menu is off the charts there’s a lot to choose from
We have a lot of hunters in south western Pa so a game menu would be good
A rabbit rattlesnake appetizer would be great
Keep the REESE'S desert on the menu“

“Went to breakfast today, eggs Benedict was delicious, daughter and wife loved the pancakes and fruit. Nice menu with lots to try. Place was busy but they are super friendly and work together. Got a cookie to go was also delicious.“

“I had the Turkey Bacon melt which was very good. All the staff were friendly, and for what we got the price was very reasonable. Overall made my visit to the Aviary even more enjoyable.“

“Cool place with the best hot chocolate, perfect for this weather!“

“Not sure if this is the right place for this review, but I wanted to shout out whoever was working that Starbucks cafe the morning of Black Friday. The line was packed but those baristas got everyone in and out in no time; I barely blinked and my drinks were there. Very friendly and polite as well.“

“Thoughtfully brewed coffee. Amicable staff. A small gem Downtown.“

“Wonderful evening at cafe Momentum. The service, the food,the environment was amazing. The kids who are learning were so friendly. Will definitely be back. And if you needed another reason to go to this restaurant it BYOB.“

“Best coffee shop in the South Hills area, and top 5 of any cafe I've been to. Awesome staff, world class coffee. Been going here for longer than a decade and never once have been disappointed.“

“Great atmosphere, comfy & clean seating, delicious food that is beautifully presented.“

“Their sauces cannot be beat. Especially for people who have never tried vegan food. This is the spot! Family owned worth the drive if you don’t live nearby.“

“Went for the Museum of Art and then continued to walk around the attractive grounds. Seems to be a well endowed university with two outstanding museums and a world renowned reputation. Campus itself is easy to navigate, with parking next to the art museum. We enjoyed our visit.“

“This is just a cafe, but they had a good selection of food. Hot soup was available, but we opted for sandwiches and salad which were very fresh and plenty enough for us to enjoy for lunch! I opted for a peanut butter and jelly, and I must say I am not a fan of marmalade as the jelly; I was hoping for the more traditional grape or strawberry. I do think they should label what kind of jelly is in the sandwich, but the bread was very fresh, thick, and tasty - more like a home baked bread than store-bought loaf. Prices were reasonable for a city museum, and the staff was super friendly and nice. The seating in the lobby of the museum was abundant the day we were there; it was a pleasant place to have lunch before touring the museum. It was also clean! I don't think I'd make a special trip here just for lunch, but it's a great option if you are going to be visiting the Museum.“

“Stopped here for a drink since I was in the area. I had the Vietnamese Cold Brew and it was really good. Unfortunately the location isn't convenient for me but I would visit again if I was in town. Great service as well!“

“We visited during a Steelers game and were welcomed with friendliness and the feel of family. The drinks are generous. The food is readily available. Great place to host a party or family gathering. Cash only. Well, at least you know you're not leaving with an open tab. Great energy!

Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible“

“This coffee shop is a an outcropping of Point State Park University. I like it because it usually has a less crowded atmosphere than Starbucks. Mostly college kids when its open. The coronavirus has taken its toll. but all in all still a decent place to get a cup of coffee, sushi, pita wraps, sandwiches, fruit cups, candy, chips and acetera.“

“It’s my final day volunteering at Carnegie Science Center, so I thought I’d get some final day fries. They were incredible fries in general, not greasy, seasoned, and very generous quantities. You definitely get the bang for your buck. I’d dare to say these are the best fries in Pittsburgh. Incredible stuff, highly recommend. Also, incredibly nice and generous staff, always a smile on their faces. Very clean open kitchen concept.“
