    Outside Cafe Moulin

    I was in Pittsburgh for a weekend to help move my daughter into her apartment and wanted a delicious breakfast before a busy day. We went on a Sunday morning when the city was still sleeping and only the early birds were awake. The cafe was nearly empty, giving that quiet relaxed feeling. We sat in the back where the light was still dim. We ordered a latte and a chai tea latte while we looked over the menu. It was hard to decide between the avocado toast, crepes and the French toast, so we decided to order all three. The food was AH- mazing. The avocado toast was served with the best dressing on the side salad. I asked if the dressing was available for sale because it was the most incredible lemon vinaigrette I've ever tasted. Anything with the dressing is a MUST try.

    Classic French Toast

    So overrated honestly. We went here for breakfast on a Thursday and I was excited to try this place because people tell me great things about it. Was not impressed with the French toast at all. We got a savory crepe and it was just fine. Everything was bland. Good coffee though. Service was not attentive for refills and the price was a big steep for what it really is.

    Portions were large. Got the Alaska and the Super Belgium. The Alaska left alot to be desired, salmon was weird and heavy on the cream cheese, lacked flavor and depth however the super Belgium was amazing. Brunch is obviously a very busy time to go but the staff did their best. If you want a quiet place to it, this is not it. Very loud and chaotic with all the people. Still enjoyable and clean! I liked the vibe!

    The painted wall. Tres French.

    My vegan husband loved it. Im curious to see how busy it is on a weekend but we went after dropping the kids off at school and it was perfect. No wait. Our server was great. This is a small thing that felt out of place but not necessarily bad: the mugs were just regular mugs like you have at home. Im looking forward to a spanikopita crepe next time.

    Bristol & Barcelona French Toast
    Caroline S.

    the bristol crepe and barcelona french toast combo is divine, gluttonous, and a most order combo. the avocado and cheese in the crepe make for a crazy good texture and the cheese and berry compote in the barcelona french toast make for an excellent savory sweet combo. great brunch spot

    I have been to Café Moulin in Shadyside several times on previous trips to Pittsburgh. In truth, it's such a favorite of mine that I headed there straight from the airport on my most recent visit. The cool vibe restaurant is tucked away up a short flight of stairs on Filbert Street. It gives the place a cozy, hideaway feel with brick walls and murals. It's pretty popular, so you might have to wait a few minutes for a table, but it moves pretty quick. The menu focuses heavily on crepes and French toast, and they do both very well. I went for a savory crepe that was loaded with eggs and topped with a rich sauce and diced vegetables. It came with a side of fresh fruit which was a nice touch. We also ordered a sweet crepe to share. It was beautifully presented with chocolate drizzle, berry sauce, and a massive pile of whipped cream. The coffee is solid too. Verdict: This is a consistent and reliable brunch spot. It was the perfect way to kick off my trip. I will definitely be back next time I am in town.

    French toast

    Stopped by for a late weekend lunch -- they were really busy, even around 1:30 or 2, but fortunately our group of 5 only had to wait around 15 minutes to get seated. The place is pretty spacious with a decent amount of seating, but is apparently quite popular so I hear there's always a queue at peak times. Everything we ordered was so delicious. The french toast was fluffy and sweet without being too heavy. The crepes we got (Bristol, super belgium, Ottawa egg platter) were both super yummy. Turkey meat in the Bristol crepe was juicy and so flavourful, and the brie in the Ottawa one was just such a wonderful complement to the eggy omelette. All the fruits (blueberries, strawberries, bananas), either on the crepes or in the side order, were so fresh. Service was a bit slow (understandable due to how busy it was) but otherwise friendly and helpful. Price point was great for everything we ordered. I'd love to come back in the future :)

    Dubai Chocolate Crepe
    athena z.

    Came here on a Saturday for lunch around noon. For a table for two, we waited about 30 minutes. You have to be present in the restaurant so they can call your name when the table is ready even though it is very cramped around the door. We ordered some crepes and they were delicious! So flavorful and savory with large portions. The Dubai chocolate was very exciting, pistachio on the inside with chocolate on the outside. The service was a bit disappointing, our server never came around besides to take our order and give the bill. Other than that, we had to track down employees to fill up our water. There is street parking near the restaurant and a paid parking lot in the back.

    Service was really quick even with how busy they were. Food came out fast and service was very flexible with us given the size of our party. Ambiance was a bit loud inside but it makes sense for how crowded it was. Food felt fresh and was worth the wait

    Avocado toast
    Adriana T.

    After waiting for about an hour we were able to sit and eat. We had our toddler with us and they were b Very accommodating! The space is small and was a little hard to walk between tables especially with how busy there were. The inside is cute and the decor is fun. Bathroom do having changing table. We ordered the yogurt parfait, avocado toast, and the chicken shawarma.

    Classic French Toast
    Jordan H.

    Everything about this place was very good! The inside was lovely decorated, with nice outside lighting. The service was speedy and everyone was really nice. The food was yummy! I've never had a crepe quite like this. My white mocha was also very tasty.

    Inside Barcelona French toast
    Ulyana K.

    Very nice spot for breakfast or brunch. Everything seems to be super fresh and the food is just classy in a way. Good mix of sweet and savory options. I got to try their Barcelona French toast. This is one example of their great balance between sweet and savory. It has the sweetness from the berries and sweet preserve like sauce, but savory flavor from the cheese. To me, it seemed like it skewed toward having too much cheese. The interior cheese tasted a lot like butter, very fatty and soft. I'm not the biggest fan of butter so it wasn't my favorite, but it was obviously well made and the portion was pretty decent. All in all, I do recommend this spot, as the menu is quite diverse and the food is obviously high quality.

    Brunch Review! Overall (Solid 4/5): Cafe Moulin is known for their Crepes and it shows. The Crepe quality is definitely pretty good even compared to the ones in NYC, however, the filling and the flavors inside have some work. The inside really feels like a mix of a cafe and a diner, it is quaint and not bad for a quick bite to eat. It gets busy but not too bad as they have a decent amount of seats inside. If you need a quick bite or craving crepes, they have a wide array of sweet and savory! Food (4/5): I highly recommend the Sofia over the Bristol. It was balanced and you can taste a wide array of flavors! Definitely a solid savory crepe. Bristol was okay, if you LOVE turkey then it's great but it felt like it was missing something. Service (3.5/5): It isn't a restaurant, so I'm not rating it too harshly. They operate similarly to a diner. They were fast and courteous. It was not bad.

A refrigerator contained yogurts, juices, oat milk, and other bottled beverages. Shelves held bags of coffees and kettles. Employees kindly took my husband's order and payment and promptly made our beverages. Some tables and chairs were inside the cafe, so we sat down to enjoy our beverages. Other customers were using the dining area to read, spend time with family and friends, and work on laptops. I rate the Chai Latte has 5 stars and the holiday Sugar Plum Latte as 4.5 stars. We enjoyed their flavors. Each beverage was 12 ounces, and their total price was $11 plus tax and tip. I did notice that the cafe was very humid because of the cold weather outside and the many customers inside. The windows had much condensation. I wonder if a dehumidifer would reduce the indoor humidity.

The front has some wicker chairs and tables which are very small. As you move toward the back there are small sitting rooms where you take off your shoes and sit on a padded "floor".

One note is, I think they have a wifi limit where only a certain number of people can connect. I tried all night to get a connection and could not for any of my devices, nor could my friend. Overall the ambiance is catered toward chatting rather than studying as the tables are very small and slow or no wifi. I like the night vibes it has though, we need more late night 3rd spaces like this one!! I got a hummus plate and ginger tea. The ginger tea was just okay. The ginger was overpowering in not a good way. It highlighted the spiciness of ginger without letting any type of "tea flavor" through. It tasted more like ginger water. For a tea house, I thought it would have more depth. The hummus platter was very yummy! The pita was warm and the olive oil on the hummus added a nice touch to it. I think I would have enjoyed the experience more had the tables not been as wobbly, the WiFi worked at any point, the tea had a bit more nuance to it, and the cloying smell wasn't there. It is a very good chatting spot for late night meetings ups with great food!

For my coffee this morning I went with a butter beer cold brew while my wife went with an iced Almond Joy latte. The menu described mine as cold brew with butterscotch syrup and cheesecake sweet cream. My wife's was described as just like the candy bar with dark chocolate and coconut topped with coconut flakes. My coffee actually ended up tasting pretty good. The butterscotch tasted somewhat similar to caramel but the cold brew was definitely the star. It was rich and strong which I always appreciate. The cheesecake sweet cream was also a nice addition as it was sweet like you would expect but also had a bit of tartness that reminded me of actual cheesecake. My wife also enjoyed her coffee and especially liked the combination of chocolate, coconut and coffee flavors. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My wife and I both enjoyed our drinks and I would definitely be interested in trying some of the pastries next time.
