Nice little place in Shadyside. On-street as well as lot parking available - all paid. Casual atmosphere with relaxed vibe. Servers were attentive and food was made fresh. Menu is a bit trendy but has something for everyone. read more

** Hip brunch spot with many choices for french toast and crepes. Smaller place that can have a wait on weekends. I love brunch but I am not always a morning person, especially on the weekends. After a few failed attempts, I finally made it one weekend, and Im glad that I had the opportunity to eat here. I ordered the classic french toast and added strawberries ($9 total), which I think made it a lot better because the french toast by itself might have been a bit plain. The pieces were really thick and decently filling. Typically I do not like to eat things that are overly sweet and more subtle in flavor, and the french toast here is kind of like that. I actually ended up using most if not all of of the whipped cream and syrup, which is typically rare for me. I also ordered the Nutella Hot Chocolate Cappuccino which I didn't particularly like... I guess this one was a bit too plain and I was expecting it to be a bit sweeter or have more flare. Didn't think the drink was worth $2.50. Not the cheapest place so I wouldn't eat here too often but its a nice experience overall and I would definitely be down to try one of the sweet crepes in the future. read more

I'm always looking for new breakfast places and Cafe Moulin is perfect for when I have a craving for something sweet! I've been twice and both times I got the super belgium crepe, which is filled with cookie butter. It's so rich and tasty I couldn't even take a picture first because I had to dig in. Their coffee and lattes are okay, nothing to write home about. The star of the menu is definitely the variety of crepes. The atmosphere here is interesting. It's a cozy little basement with some French decor. I personally like it. It feels homey. It's always been busy each time I've gone but I've never had to wait since I've had a smaller party. read more

Cafe Moulin is a little French-style establishment specializing in crepes. It's a nice space set below street level and the service was great. As with any establishment in that stretch of Shadyside, parking can be a hassle. You can choose sweet, savory, or omelette-style crepes and the menu also features a few other options like French toast. The portion sizes are more authentic and less American (meaning they're smaller than you'd see in other restaurants). While I can appreciate the authenticity, I also unabashedly love food and was wishing there were a few small side options to choose with my crepe. That said, the food was quite delicious and worth a look if you're craving a good brunch in the area. read more

Great crepe spot with huge portions! I got the smoked salmon crepe, which was delicious and even had a good amount to bring home. I think this place is far superior to crepe parisienne. However, the service was not the fastest. read more

Absolutely delicious place ! The crepes may not seem like much but it was definitely filling and yummy. I got the Alaskan savory crepe and I highly recommend it if you enjoy smoked salmon. It's all reasonably priced as well. The place isn't immediately noticeable from walnut street but I guarantee once you try it out you'll be back. read more

I really enjoyed the Sofia omelette! The Turkish sausage was very good, and the omelette was cooked perfectly. I might get the harissa aioli on the side next time, since they really pour it on. The fruit on the side was refreshing. The freshly squeezed orange juice was delicious as well. The interior of the cafe was cute and the service was great. read more

What's for brunch? (Sunday- January 19, 2020) Amsterdam French Toast Platter. It's French toast, Turkish sausage, eggs & maple syrup!! My drink was Nutella hot chocolate!! Yum!! Meal specs: The French toast isn't fantastic but not bad. It could have a little bit more vanilla, maybe, to add just a touch more taste. For me, it should be just a little hotter when served would help. It wasn't cold. It was warm. I ask for extra syrup. The turkey sausage is very good & different!! It's seems slightly smokey & slightly spicy. I like both!! The eggs aren't very tasty. It's bland. You have to pay $1 for their spicy sauce. Some meals comes with it. I mix the hot sauce, take a piece of turkey sausage with the eggs & eat it altogether. Side note: It's nice that they have crepes (which I haven't tried)! But, they look good!! Also, they have fresh fruit that's good; that I've tried from my husband's meal. Drink specs: It's chocolate goodness. It's better than the Swiss brand!! Bon appétit!!! Pictures read more

Surprisingly good amount of food for the price (around $12-18). Their lemonade and half/half tastes amazing. My go-to order is the Amsterdam with bacon. Bacon's crispy, the sausage has a unique flavor profile, eggs could use some salt, and the french toast is super thick and soft. One thing I will point out is that they don't reservations. So you'll need to pick a good time to head out to this place. The place goes full quick for a reason. read more

This restaurant is in the Shadyside shopping district and very near my hair salon (Whitehouse Salon -- highly recommended BTW) so stopped for lunch after getting my new hairdo. The place is tiny but inviting. As it was just myself, I opted for counter space sitting on a stool with no back, but there are several tables with chairs, as well. The menu options are mostly crepes, divided into sweet and savory. I opted for the Tivoli, a savory crepe with mozzarella, spinach, and tomato, with pesto sauce. I wish they would use the Oxford comma because it is confusing on their menu as it is listed as "spinach, tomato and pesto sauce" which leads one to wonder if it contains tomatoes and has pesto sauce or if it contains tomato pesto sauce. I was hoping it was the former and it was, gratefully. It comes with a side salad with house French vinaigrette dressing. I thought the portions were excellent, the taste very good, and the price of 14.79 which included a diet coke to be fine for lunch. I will say I loved it but, as far as wanting to return with my husband for a weekend breakfast? I think the space is too small for a drive here specifically for this restaurant only to probably find it is very busy and there is no place inside to wait for a table. Off-hour visits would be best. read more

We ordered three crepes to go. They were supposed to come with side salads, which they didn't but of course we didn't find out until we were home. Please check your order thoroughly. Ham and cheese crepe was good. Big of a sweet after taste. The veggie crepes my wife and daughter were bland and needed some balsamic glaze from us to perk up the flavor. Dessert crepes were supposed to come with whipped topping. We ordered two and neither one did. This day and age it's about execution and delivery. This place could do much better. Five stars are possible, but improvements are needed to get there. read more

Let me start by saying I am typically a 20 to 25% tipper. My wife and I ate breakfast here this morning. Service was poor: my wife asked for crisp bacon; didn't happen. In about every restaurant we've eaten in, the waitstaff comes by to ask how our meal is; didn't happen. Wait staff usually comes by to ask if we want more coffee; didn't happen. In fact after our meal and the waitstaff came by to take the dishes away, my wife asked for a second cup of coffee; she brought coffee to my wife but not to me. When she brought the hand held credit card reader for the bill, I customized the tip to just over 10%. Based on the lack of good service, it seemed reasonable to me. As we walked out the door, my wife overheard the waitress telling another staff member, " these are the ones." Food itself was okay, but not great. Coffee was good. read more

Don't let the unassuming exterior or dark-paneled interior deter you from trying out this humble brunch spot offering excellent food. They have a variety of sweet and savory crepes as well as French toast and paninis. You can even get an omelet inside a crepe! What I liked is that the wait was not long, service was fast, and perhaps best of all, the portions were appropriate. It was enough food to make you full but not stuffed, and of course it was all delicious going down. Our table had one Alaskan crepe (salmon!), one super Belgian crepe (all the fruit!), and two ham and Swiss crepes (with side salads!). Prices are good for what you get. Gender segregated bathrooms. Conversations can get noisy inside. Not wheelchair accessible inside, but maybe if you sat outside when the weather is warm enough. read more

Great spot for brunch if you're in the Shadyside area! We ended up trying a variety of their crepes, both sweet and savory, and every single one was so delicious! If you're more of a savory person, my favorites were the Tavoli crepe and the Shakshouka crepe, which was a new featured item! Both were so flavorful and filling. Highly recommend and will definitely be back for more! read more

The crepes are so good here! Definitely one of the best around. It gets really busy so expect there to be a wait on the weekend. It's always so hard what to choose from the menu because it's all so delicious! My favorite is the Bristol crepe. If it's for brunch I like to add an egg. They have many other options to customize it to your liking. read more

Food and service are good. However, they can improve the outdoor seating area. We decided to sit outside because it was too noisy inside. We asked for an umbrella and we're told that they put umbrellas only on weekends. We had to eat outside under the burning sun and 86 F. The furniture and the table are cheap plastic and the paint is pealed. Inside is incredibly noisy with a lot of people sitting too close to each other in a very small space. It is so loud that we could not hear the waitress. The service is efficient and they try to accommodate customer needs. read more

So good . This French Cafe hidden in Shadyside so lovely and causal. All of us loved it. So nice before the holidays. Hint. They don't take reservation and only start to seat you when the whole party arrives. But definitely worth the wait. read more

This crepe shop isn't much to write home about. They offer both savory and sweet crepes, giving an attempt at a french experience, but didn't quite hit the nail on the head. I ordered the Tivoli, which featured mozzarella, cherry tomato, spinach, pesto, and comes with a side salad, I was somewhat disappointed with both my crepe and salad. I was excited about the pesto and tomatoes, but was disappointed to find the only pesto in my last two bites, and the tomatoes very warm and soft; nowhere near fresh. My salad consisted of a single type of lettuce, topped with a sickly sweet, skittle tasting dressing. I was shocked by the steep price for avocado toast, but my partner was pleased with the lox toast. We were both pleased with the portions, I would've appreciated more of an even and generous amount of pesto, and a complete change in the salad, which should have more than just some chopped lettuce and a sugar saturated sauce. read more

Very cute cafe. Service was quick and our server was very nice. Food was great, the avocado toast was AMAZING!

This restaurant has been on my list as a go-to brunch location for awhile and I'm glad I finally got to experience it. We came on a Friday around 11am and was able to find a table inside right away. A waitress came over to our table right away to get our drinks and brought a pitcher of water. As my meal, I ordered the Barcelona French Toast. It was delicious! It came with 2 large pieces of French toast. The crust still with a bit of crunch, the middle of the toast softened with the marscapone. In between the slices of toast was goat gouda that perfectly added a savory flavor to the sweetness of the dish. I have never had French toast with cheese before, I was pleasantly surprised with how delicious it was. The raspberry sauce on top was sweet and blended well with the other flavors of the toast. No syrup was needed at all, the berry sauce was sweet enough, sometimes a bit bitter if you had too much on a piece of the toast. The whipped cream on the side was a great balance to the bitterness, adding a vanilla sweet flavor. Overall it was a great experience, the staff was quick and friendly, food delicious, and prices were reasonable. Definitely recommend coming here for breakfast or brunch! read more

Got one of the avocado pesto toasts and it was pretty good. I wasn't the biggest fan of the pesto flavor but the bread with the smashed avocado and soft boiled egg was A+.

Cafe Moulin - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I have been here multiple times over many years, even before their new location. Overall, my experiences have never been very good. It's a very popular brunch spot, especially on weekends. There have been times where we've waited close to an hour for food and people around us who sat after us got theirs before ours. When we mentioned the long wait, the staff relayed that their manager said it's normal to wait that long and was very not empathetic. Their manager is very not customer friendly and is very nit picky with money. Most recently, I was happy to see that when I checked in on yelp, they were offering a discount to students with valid IDs that day. When I mentioned this to the waitress she said that their manager doesn't really do this and it's only on some weekdays and not today-- despite Yelp saying differently... she didn't bother to confirm with the manager either but it she gave off the idea that regardless we weren't going to be able to use the discount. To top it off, there was another occasion where my friend and I got food poisoning after eating here. Food is always just ok and really not worth the price or lack of empathy or consistency from the manager sadly. read more

The crepes here are everything. Whether you decide to go savory or sweet, you won't be disappointed. Some of the crepes I've ordered and really enjoy include the cheesecake crepe which is made with mascarpone, chocolate and a mixed berry compote. Tivoli crepe is spinach, fresh mozzarella, pesto and tomato. There's also a banana Nutella crepe that's worth ordering. Other offerings include French toast, eggs, paninis and a wide selection of coffee and tea. read more

Was here once before and wasn't great but we thought we'd give them another chance since we live down the street and it's convenient. Waited 30 minutes for a table and placed our order right away. Crepes were tasteless and they never came to check on us or fill our water or tea. We were there with a friend visiting and as soon as they cleared the plates we were asked to leave so they can fill the table with another paying customer. Never been kicked out of a restaurant before and was shocked. Won't be back read more

I had my first brunch in Pittsburgh at Cafe Moulin with a friend in town. Cafe Moulin is an attractive neighborhood joint serving Turkish-inspired food. You can get regular breakfast/brunch dishes such as omelet or french toast, but it's not your regular breakfast/brunch thanks to the Turkish tweaks. The Turkish crepe is unique and delicious: the Sofia I ordered came with a tasty spicy-flavored crepe. I'm determined to try different flavors in the near future. Service is okay maybe slightly understaffed on weekends, similar to many over-crowded brunch spots across the country. read more
