Churn is a local restaurant chain that serves ice creams, coffees, and some other foods and beverages. This location opened a few years ago. The ice-cream menu lists several staple flavors of handcrafted ice creams as well as over 15 custom flavors that vary daily. These ice creams can be made into milkshakes, ice-cream floats, banana splits, etcetera. The coffee menu lists several types of coffees: drip coffee, iced coffee, frappes, lattes, espressos, etcetera. Prices are average. During my visit, an employee immediately greeted my husband and me, waited patiently while we selected our flavors of ice cream, correctly assembled our bowls of ice cream, and accurately rung up our purchase. I ordered one scoop of black raspberry and one scoop of caramel pretzel, and my husband ordered one scoop of double-fudge Pop-tart. We liked the flavors, but our pieces of pretzel and Pop-tart were soggy.

Friendly staff, tons of flavor shot offerings for neat lattes and coffee additions, and nice sit down space. Ordered the bananas foster iced coffee which I think was a blend of banana crème and something else. Leaned sweet but I added cinnamon and some milk after trying it and it was perfect. I'll definitely be back to explore the latte selection!

Ok so we were a tad bit late to discovering Churn. My daughter was at cheer and I wanted to treat my son to ice cream. We went to Gibsonia first and then wanted to try this one. This is our FAVE! So there is ice cream the there is ICE CREAM @ CHURN!!! OMG I think they use like super addicting powder and magical pixie dust to make there ice cream because it is the best thing I have ever tasted!!! There are few things I would compare to being as good as "adult time" with my wife if you know what I mean but this is definitely one of them. Now the price is a little steep in my honest opinion but it is soooo worth it. The servings are huge and often messy over the edges but when you get it hurry up and attack the overhang and you'll save yourself a huge mess. We have tried so many on their flavors but my favorite is probably the regular strawberry because it has such a real flavor to it. It is t heavily sugary or syrupy it's just a delightful ice cream. Second favorite of mine is the lavender vanilla. Sounds weird for something you'll eat but it is amazing to your tastebuds and light and refreshing! Almost made wax melts sound tempting hahahaha JK DO NOT EAT WAX MELTS! My wife's favorite flavors are the Oreo cookie dough and the lavender vanilla. My son loves their chocolate with rainbows sprinkles. My daughter loves the birthday cake and the cotton candy. My wife has gotten their lattes and said they were good but they are definitely a tad bit expensive. We also have had their tea sweetened and lavender flavored and it was delicious and delightful. If you are looking for handmade amazing ice cream drive to Churn, start with a single scoop and go up from there to learn what portion you like the best.

Specialty Milkshake (Strawberry Oreo x Milkshake)

I must say, Churn ranks pretty high on my list of ice cream spots. Nestled right outside of Pittsburgh, this place boasts a great selection of homemade ice cream, and other coffee related items. I think I might have the biggest sweet tooth out of anyone I know, and it was very much satisfied. As far as the flavors, there were a ton of interesting combinations that I'll be back to try at a later date. This trip I ended up getting a strawberry Oreo milkshake with oat milk. Not to be confused with the classic Oreo with strawberry filling but an actual strawberry flavored Oreo made into ice cream. If you are in the area, I'd highly recommend this place to anyone. Staff is amazing/super positive during these uncertain times.

We stopped here this morning for coffee on our way to Beechwood Nature Preserve and actually ended up coming back for ice cream after. Churn has a seasonal fall menu that was just released this weekend. During our first visit I got the pumpkin pie chai latte at the recommendation of the very helpful girl behind the counter and, I kid you not, it tasted like a spicy warm pumpkin pie. I drank it slowly because I didn't want it to be done. That's how good we're talking. I tried my husband's apple brown cinnamon sugar latte and it was also excellent. I had the black raspberry ice cream and it was so creamy it almost pulled like a soft serve. The kids were totally silent while eating their ice cream which is always a sign that something is good. If you get a kid's cup it's served in a special blue cup with a rounded lid which helps keep kids' hands cleaner. If you're in the area it's definitely worth stopping in.

A great spot for both coffee and ice cream. Two of my favorite things!! Great selection of both that change frequently, so each visit is a different experience. Ample indoor seating for a morning coffee and chat chat with a friend and a few outdoor tables to allow for an relaxing dessert to watch the sun set.

Their chocolate chip muffin and plain latte hit the spot. The latte was not too sweet and smooth…read morewhile the muffin was far from dry and perfectly crumbly. When purchasing my items, the employees were so nice and also verified my order. Additionally, one of them even said hi to me outside of the store but I was a little out of it. However, this just highlights the staff's kindness. It was also just as nice walking around the store - its colors brightened my mood and the plants added a nice touch to the feeling inside the cafe.

I stopped by here two Saturday mornings ago with my wife for our morning coffee. Every weekend, we…read moretry to hit up a new local coffee shop, and this morning it happened to be Three Little Birds Cafe and Juice Bar. This coffee shop is located on Middle Road, right near Hartwood Acres. Since it was October, they had quite a few pumpkins and fall decorations outside, with the pumpkins being for sale, which was sort of fun. Inside, there was an ordering area, a huge display case, an area selling local goods, and some seating. After looking at the menu, I ultimately chose a large hot Sweater Weather Latte, while my wife went with an iced Sweater Weather Latte. The menu described it as a maple, pumpkin, and pecan latte with whipped cream and homemade candied pecans. We waited maybe five minutes or so before getting our drinks and heading on our way. The most interesting part of this drink for me was the homemade candied pecans on top of the whipped cream. I would randomly get them in some sips but not others. I also wondered what they were candied in, as I was getting a pretty distinct bourbon flavor from the drink, even though there was no bourbon in it. In any case, I enjoyed the other flavors and mostly picked up the sweetness from the maple and the earthiness of the pecans. I don't know if I could have told you there was pumpkin in it, but that's okay. With all the flavors and sweetness, the coffee itself was somewhat covered up, but it was tasty enough that I didn't really mind. My wife also enjoyed her iced version and liked the candied pecans as well. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. My wife and I both enjoyed our coffee, and I would be interested in trying their baked goods and food as well.
