I love Brushes and Beans! Usually paint your own pottery places are BYO for food and drinks, but they are half coffee shop, half pottery pain. They have a huge selection of items to paint and prices and pieces range from around $8 to up to $80. You pick your piece and paint colors and then go to work. To get the true color you need three coats, so it can tale awhile. But it is a really fun experience and the staff is really helpful. They fire your piece and you come back to pick it up in a week or two. Great for something to do with the kids, a date, time with friends or even a fun solo activity. read more

The coffee was expertly prepared as we enjoyed our toddler niece painting her ceramic project. Great fun for her and admirable assistance from the attentive staff. The fruits of child preparedness artwork will be fired and ready for us to collect in 2 weeks! read more

Brushes & Beans Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Murrysville, Pennsylvania

Surprisingly cheap for a pottery shop. I was able to paint a bowl for $20 (painting equipment included in price). Coffee store was run by the same employee. She was super sweet and hardworking. Well run and clean place read more

Made a reservation and have a fun family activity. The place was nice, food, was delicious, and service was great. We had fun painting and look forward to doing this again. read more

I was looking for an activity to do on Friday, observed Veteran's Day. School was closed, and the veteran in our home was off of work. I randomly thought of Brushes & Beans. We called around noon, and they made us a 2:30pm reservation. We arrived a bit early so my husband and I could order coffees, and we bought a baked good for my children (ages 4 and 6). I think some might be caught off guard by the macchiato at this cafe, but they are true to Italian size and style (says the prior northern Italy resident). My husband ordered a double and had them add the bourbon caramel flavoring to it (not true to Italian style - ha!). He said he really liked it, and I enjoyed teasing him with a little "pinkies up!" call out when taking his photo. I ordered a decaf Americano (boring, I know) and also enjoyed it. Our children split a chocolate chip scone. There were a variety of muffins to choose from, croissants, and gluten-free items as well. Soon, it was time for our painting reservation. I have to say, everyone we interacted with was patient, helpful, and kind. They each seem to enjoy their job. They came around the tables often to ask if we need anything, and would bring additional paint or offer help and advice when needed. There is a nice variety of ceramics to choose from for painting as well. All in all, we very much enjoyed our visit and would certainly go back again! I was thinking it could be a fun outing for a Girl Scout troop or any kind of club or organization. You could go and paint ornaments, which are affordable and easy to do. I may have to pass that idea past our Girl Scout troop's leader. :) read more

This is such a fun place! Great coffee and treats plus a creative outlet. Friendly and helpful employees too. So happy it reopened!

Every time I visit the coffee shop side, I have been met with extremely helpful and cheerful associates. I have not gone to the painting side, although it looks like fun. The coffee shop side has an everyday menu as well as featured drinks. I can see why this coffee shop is voted a top coffee shop. read more

I am a sucker for good customer service and this place has it! It's currently snow in and I am not dressed weather appropriate because of an injury and my girls at brushes and beans had nothing but kind things to say about my clothes. They made me feel so welcome and tried to get to know me in the 3 minutes I was actually there to get my chai. Great chai tea by the way. I am definitely coming back to sip and make some pottery too! I love feeling welcomed by small businesses and this is why I will always support Brushes and Beans! read more

What a fun party!! Our now 9 year old wanted to have her party here. It was great. It was only $25 to get the room in the back. We went in days prior and our daughter picked some items she thought the girls would want to paint. They had everything set for the girls to choose from. They also got to choose some colors (it was a good amount to choose from) with which to paint. They don't have a kitchen and welcomed us to bring our own food in. They have a nice area set up where we were able to set up the food. Jersey Mike's was a hit! The restrooms were a perfect. They were clean and nice. There were two of them as well which was great. The owners were both there and were so sweet. Everything was explained well to us as we had lots of first timers. If you are looking for a place for a birthday party for kids, it's great. I'd say you wouldn't want younger than 9 or so as there is some skill needed to make things look nice. But our 5 year old painted one with skill! This is also a great coffee house or date spot. If you've never been you should come soon! We love it and the kids are ready to come back! read more

This is such a cool local place! One side is their cafe with beverages, pastries and seating. The other side is ceramics you can pick to paint! The price tag on each item includes the item, the painting of it and the firing in the kiln. Everyone I have met who works here is also super nice. I'm hoping I can return with a group of friends. read more

I can't say enough good things about Brushes and Beans. I knew I wanted to do something artistic as part of my bachelorette weekend, and you would not believe how difficult it was to arrange some sort of private party where people could do their own thing at their own price point. Not here though - Mark was incredible to work with. He got back to me immediately, answered all my questions, and made the whole experience seamless. We had 16 gals I have the best time getting to choose their pieces (prices ranged from $13 to the hundreds so there was something for everyone), and paint them. Staff was knowledgeable and attentive. We were able to bring our own food to enjoy while we painted, and also got to enjoy the cafés delish coffee. I will definitely be back! read more

So this place was interesting. It's a coffee shop and pottery studio; very different concept. The coffee is really good and their seasonal drinks are worth getting. This is definitely a nice place to go to for a date night or with kids to paint in the pottery studio area. read more

Zoe is the new owner and brings a positive energy to the shop. The employees are all willing to help with any questions or concerns. It is my place to unwind and relax. I recommend this place to take family/friends to just to hang out and craft together read more

This place has everything!! They make really great coffee and lattes using la prima coffee beans. I love the croissants they sell as well. All the staff are super friendly and helpful. I love going there to paint ceramics as well. Regardless of artistic ability the staff give really great suggestions and directions for painting whatever piece you choose! read more

This is going to be a dynamic review since there are two sides to this business. "Beans": they make coffee and breakfast/brunch food. The food and pastries are all fresh, creative, and well done. The coffee has a good taste, much better than any chain you will find. I am however disappointed with their syrup brand. I would expect a premier coffee shop to put more effort into a REAL syrup and not a cheaper brand. "Brushes": I came with a 7 year old and my brother to paint some pottery. The staff was extremely accommodating and we had a great time. Really great place. read more

I love everything about this place!! The pottery is well priced and the coffee is cheap! The staff is enthusiastic, kind, and genuine; I had such a lovely time with plenty of help and tips on how to have the best results. The coffee and pastry are delicious and the overall vibe of the space is calm and cozy. Can't recommend it enough! read more

Had a great experience! The staff was amazing! Coffee and treats were delicious. Lots of GF options.

The service and atmosphere is always wonderful! I come here almost every weekend for coffee and a snack! 10/10 i recommended to everyone

Day 1 and they are up and running. The latte was great and the blueberry scone is heavenly.

Everyone is extremely welcoming and willing to help you with the menu or if you decide to paint! I made a painting reservation the night before and my boyfriend and I loved it. It's great that you can also order food and drinks while painting! I will enjoy going back with my friends and family for painting or the cafe! read more

Stopped in for breakfast and found a place I really want to return to! The breakfast burrito and fancy toast were excellent. The burrito was full of flavor and very filling with eggs,potatoes,bacon cheese. The toast was unique in a very good and healthy way, esp loved the bread(house made?) that is topped with veggies. If I lived closer I would be a regular for sure. They have a great drink menu, some pastries and an inviting seating area. The place is divided in two but both sides are very accessible. Coffee/food side and then a ceramics side! Lots of ceramics to choose from in a well spaced area. I esp loved looking at the artwork ( both sides) TY Brushes and Beans! read more

Not sure if under new management. Went in yesterday and found out my favorite worker had been let go. Kid was awesome. Personable smart witty entertaining and kind. A few weeks ago we had a Party for my nephew and the kid went out of his way to do a drawing for my nephew, a Spider-Man birthday card....by hand. Where do you find a worker these days giving themselves like that. I hope the kids ok and shame on whoever made that decision. read more

What a fun place! Got myself a great handcrafted cold tea. Then sat and painted ceramics with friends. Fun girls day. Family owned operated. The food looks incredible too so plan on grabbing a bite to eat! read more

Everyone was so nice! The inside is so relaxing and welcoming.I absolutely love the concept! I also got the BEST chai tea latte I've ever had here. read more

We stopped by to congratulate the owners in their first week! The decor and color scheme is really inviting. The favored lattes we ordered were tasty and prepared quickly. The staff was very welcoming and the layout of all the tables accommodates all social distancing protocols. Next time we'll stay and paint some pottery! A great addition to the corridor. read more

If I could give them a 10/5 I would! We came all the way from Buffalo, New York to celebrate our niece's birthday and after they had finished up a basketball game she decided this is where she wanted to go. We did not make reservations which a strongly encouraged and noted for next time however, they were able to accommodate our family of 6 by reconfiguring some tables and letting us paint! My niece was thrilled and I was too because it really does bring you back to such a relaxing and creative place! I cannot thank I'm not sure if it was the owner or manager for being so accommodating and squeezing us in and not only that but they were so attentive checking to make sure we had enough paint or water or refills and we ordered drinks at the cafe which were so delicious my hot chocolate was better than the one I get a Starbucks and they delivered them right to our table! I would highly recommend supporting such a wonderful business that's owned/ran by such charismatic individuals who truly made a magical experience for my niece! read more

The team at Brushes & Beans went above and beyond. I went here on Saturday evening with a bunch of girlfriends for an evening out. We had a blast. They had live music, delicious coffee, yummy treats and a knowledgeable, kind staff. I had to get a price rushed and they were responsible in not promising me that they could accomplish it but instead said they would do their best. I am so pleased to be able to pick up my piece this evening, so I can take it on the plane with me tomorrow! I cannot wait to go back and paint another piece! I would highly recommend Beans & Brushes! read more

They have the best iced coffee ever with manyyyy vegan options including muffins!!! I love this place it's so clean and such a cute idea:)

We had a wonderful time at Brushes & Beans on a busy Sunday Morning. The studio was bright, clean and stocked with many options. Staff was knowledgeable and helpful. The cafe offered delicious options including kid friendly hot chocolate. Would definitely recommend for a fun and creative outing. read more

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place. Superior ingredients, super friendly owners and staff, BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH in Murrysville. The Chef does NOT skimp on quality or portion and the coffee is fresh and magnificent. They source from the premier local providers (La Prima coffee roasters and Mediterra Bakery) and it shows. I haven't dabbled with the ceramics yet because my schedule is full (but I'm a regular breakfast customer) but definitely will try my hand at painting soon. What a great addition to Murrysville !! Color me ecstatic ! read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The staff here is wonderful. They are extremely helpful, creative, and always go the extra mile to give you the best experience. They give great creative advice to ensure that your artwork is beautiful every time. You can tell every employee loves their job and is passionate about what they do which says a lot. Coffee/baked goods always fresh and delicious. Gluten free options available also. They have many unique pieces you will not find elsewhere. Great for people of all ages. They also sell local art which I think is absolutely amazing. This is a business that not only cares about their own customers, but strives to uplift and support other small business. It's refreshing to come into an establishment and see owners that truly care about their customers in the way that they do. I cannot say enough great things about them. I have supported this business since they opened and will continue to do so forever. read more

I had my bridal shower at Brushes & Beans this past weekend and it was a wonderful experience! They were so helpful and everyone had so much fun picking out their pieces to paint. The coffee and pastries were delicious! We will all definitely be back soon 10/10! read more

My new favorite spot for coffee in Murrysville! I haven't been to the painting side, but the coffee shop is amazing. It is spacious, has great ambiance and a cool but cozy industrial vibe. The coffee and pastries they serve is delicious and very allergy friendly. The owner and baristas are so friendly and pleasant to talk to. Totally worth a visit! read more
