I’m actually mad at myself for discovering this place so late. I have to say this is probably going to become my number one spot to work from. The reasons are pretty clear.
Space is extremely large, and there are multiple types of seating where you can work solo or with a group. There is free Wi-Fi as well as plug points.
The coffee is delicious and they have Vietnamese coffee, which is one of my favourites.
The banh-mi was delicious and although not entirely traditional, it was extremely tasty.
Everyone was becoming and nice. Will be back again for sure.

I love this place to work and grab lunch. It's a great addition to the Pittsburgh community. The only downside is their bathrooms are consistently shabby.

Went with my partner and a friend when in the mood for Vietnamese. I got the tofu rice bowl and bubble tea. We waited about 15/20 mins for our food. We found it very bold of the restaurant to have an open kitchen that you can watch the cook put food in a microwave. Especially with super long dreads and no hair cover of any kind. Tofu was hard and super chewy, the rice was crunchy, and bubble tea was super watered down. With Pho Minh and Trams within literally walking distance of this place, you would think they'd try to keep their A game on.

Really poor service. Ignorant little man running around kicking people out of rooms that are clearly open. Last time I’ll go here!

Got an egg sandwich and subbed the baguette for a bagel and they charged me 10.25? I questioned this with the cashier and told me they charged me 4.25 for the bagel substitute?? I’m sorry you must be out of your mind. This isn’t even a real bagel. I’m from NYC and we don’t even spend this on a bfast sandwich for a stellar bagel. Ambience is great in there, I’m just floored by what a rip off that was and not returning. Coffee is very good

Great place to work on your laptop. The banh mi is phenomenal. I loved the fermented veggies. My only wish is that they had robusta coffee.

My cold London Fog with extra lavender was delicious. Staff are incredibly friendly and service is prompt. Nice atmosphere. Can't wait to go back when I have more time.
