I've been here more times than I would like to admit LOL. Literally the best and cutest coffee shop around. The workers are always super nice and welcoming and their iced matcha lattes are *chefs kiss*. They have inside and outside seating and sometimes they have food trucks outside as well.

This little coffee shop is a pure gem. I visit Pittsburg at least once a year for work, and make sure I stop in at Commonplace every time. Their pour over coffees and espressos are fantastic, and baked goods always hit the spot. It’s the perfect little place (whether in the cafe or in the park) to get a relaxing moment.

Got the order wrong twice and has an attitude about it too. The latte was terrible.

I love it here! They have a big communal table with outlets for working on a laptop, ceramic mugs for in-house orders, and a nice selection of baked goods, including gluten free! There’s also a bunch of outdoor seating, including a courtyard, which is so rare in Pittsburgh. Throughout the week they have various food trucks that park outside so you can have a little lunch there too. The staff is kind and efficient. Drinks are quality + they always have a rotating menu of seasonal syrups. I usually get the chai latte, which is a nice balance of warm, spicey + tannin-y (some places’ chai lattes are either really hot spicy without much milkiness or depth, or they just taste like liquid oatmeal because the only spice used is cinnamon). Parking is easy. I just feel like they’ve thought of everything, which is what I want in a coffee shop. I travel 10 minutes from a neighboring suburb just to come here once, sometimes twice a week. Keep up the great work y’all!

Our Airbnb host recommended this spot to us and we loved it! The pumpkin spice latte is made with real pumpkin. It's perfectly frothy and isn't overly sweet-- just warm and spicy. 10/10.

This place is terrible please do not come here and make it busier.

But that said, it really is a wonderful little coffee shop with very nice people behind the counter and very good assortment of little snacks and food.

The coffee is delicious and the entire ambience is really nice.

It's our favorite Saturday or Sunday morning treat to go and have a good cup of coffee and kind of relax before we go about our day.

Delicious quality coffee, usually gluten/dairy free options for munchies, and good service. Seating is at a premium however so you may need to get your order to go.

Best coffee in Pittsburgh, and this location is such a a warm, welcoming environment. Features art from local artists and also unique decorations that neighborhood folks make at workshops they hold at the coffeehouse!

Parking: Usually spots around on streets as it's on the corner.
