    Gumbo
    DJ J.

    Stopped in with a friend who raved about the Gumbo. We walked in and were greeted by Mike. Super friendly and told us about the lunch and dinner menu and that the Gumbo was just made. There are a couple of high tables in the front and a few larger tables in the back. Gumbo was on our agenda and were getting it to go. Mike adds some rice on the bottom of the bowl and then fills it to the top with his delicious Gumbo. Our bowls were filled with tasty Gumbo that had peppers and a lot of shrimp and some chicken. Were were not disappointed. Some of the best Gumbo I have eaten. So if you like Gumbo and are nearby, stop in and have some of Mikes delicious Gumbo and a good corn muffin.

    We asked Cafe on the Corner to cater our lunch and Mike brought some of the most amazing food I've had in quite a long time. Mike is great guy and his cooking skills are only matched by his kindness and commitment to customer service. They're known for their gumbo, but I can attest that their barbeque is top notch as well. We had barbequed chicken thighs, ribs with two different sauces (one BBQ and one mustard), homemade potato salad, mac-and-cheese, fresh fruit, and homemade pound cake. We will definitely be going back and I cannot wait to try the gumbo.

    Very friendly folks and a nice bright space in an old bar. Definitely try the gumbo- it's the specialty of the house.

    Hospitable and family atmosphere. Incredible gumbo. Off the beaten path delight on the Northside. Plenty of sandwiches to choose from.

    On a Sunday morning in July, I made a visit to Fig Tree Coffee for a coffee drink. I found myself…read morein the Crafton area, and wanted to visit a local shop. Fig Tree Coffee is a newer coffee shop located in Crafton, right by the elementary school. They serve hot coffee, iced coffee, espresso drinks, tea, chai, and more. In addition to drinks, there are some food options available, along with gift-type items. Directly in front of the building, there is street parking available. There is also a private lot located to the left of the entrance for the entire building. The signage in the windows identifying the business makes it easy to locate. Fig Tree is truly a community coffee shop. It has plenty of seating, and proudly displays pieces of the community it serves. They have a bulletin board with local businesses, community events, and other information. Patrons seem to get their items and utilize the space to hang out and socialize. It is nice to see a place like this being utilized as intended! I stopped here around 8:45 AM, and it was not too crowded. There were a few other patrons in the building and in line ahead of me, but I only had to wait a few minutes to order my drink. It can be sort of overwhelming to try and order here, since the menu is so bare and there are not a ton of "special" drinks advertised. However, the baristas and staff will make anything you really are wanting, so I would not worry about this! They have different flavorings and combinations, you just need to ask or make a combination that you want to try when ordering. The barista that helped me on this visit was lovely. I was not exactly sure what I wanted, so I asked what she typically would order or make for herself. She ended up making me that exact drink in a 16 OZ Iced Drink. I enjoyed getting to try something different that I would not have picked for myself! Service was quick. I was in and out with my coffee in about 7 minutes, and that included waiting in line and taking a minute to order. The prices here are reasonable, and in line with what other local coffee shops are charging for similar products. They do accept both cash and card here, just FYI. I did not purchase any food or pastries, but the coffee prices were right in line with expectations. The vibe of this place is very cool, with a true community cafe feel. I love that they highlight their community. Not only with the people and events, but they even with a wall of Polaroids of the dogs that visit the shop! I even had a dog in line in front of me, so they are dog-friendly here. I give Fig Tree Coffee a positive review, and do recommend giving the shop a try if you find yourself in Crafton or the West End. It is a newer shop, but already has great ambiance and community presence. The staff are friendly, drinks are tasty, it is dog-friendly, and it is a great space to hang out or get some work done. I look forward to future visits to Fig Tree when I find myself in the area.

    Amazing place with great, cozy ambiance and seating area to grab a drink and a little snack too!…read more The barista was really helpful, and their Pumpkin Spice Latte was lovely to sip, though the flavor wasn't very strong. They source their baked goods from BB & Burr, and wow, they never disappoint! The chocolate chip scone was perfectly flavored and crumbly, can never go wrong with them. Overall, it's a great local spot that's part of the community and definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
