It’s a cute little neighborhood cafe. I enjoy the antiques for sale and the unique atmosphere but the drinks themselves always disappoint me. I’ve been here twice and both times I didn’t finish my drink. The flavors don’t taste how they are advertised and the espresso tastes stale. I know a lot of people love this place, unfortunately I don’t.

I hate to say that I was disappointed with my second breakfast, of cold brew and a marzipan-filled danish, but I was really bummed today.

The cold brew is soooo acidic. Acidic to the point where, I, personally, couldn’t drink much more than a third- and I did my best to force *that* down. I ended up trashing the better part of $5 worth of cold brew. Womp womp. The danish was dry.

I was utilizing a small table as a workspace and I did enjoy...

This is my partner and I's favorite coffee shop in all of Pittsburgh. Every drink I've ordered has been delicious, and their breakfast burrito is amazing as well. Never a miss with this place. The baristas are friendly and efficient, and the owner is a great guy - friend of my partner. The atmosphere is unlike any other in the city, eclectic and maximalist, yet very cozy. There's a reason that every time we go most of the tables, indoor and outdoor, are filled up!...
