Good tasting coffee, very handy location, right in the middle of the McCandless Crossing. Pleasant staff, nice bright atmosphere, solid fast WiFi and seating to get work done. Not much in the way of being able to plug into power for laptops though. read more

Nice place but pastry are cleaned out before i go there. I dont drink coffee Few parking places but keep driving around read more

Very expensive. Cute place. The woman who made my coffee had her hair hanging a bit close to my cup of coffee as she prepared it. She was very slow too. Coffee is good. read more

I've driven past here many times but never gone inside. I finally visited on a Friday evening around 5pm. I wish I'd visited sooner! The decor is unique, charming and interesting :) the coffee was also delicious will visit again! read more

Convive Coffee Roastery - The decor is unique, charming and interesting :) the coffee was also delicious will visit again! - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

If you're in the mood for a good cup of coffee, head to Convive in Mccandless Crossing. I find the best times to come here are early in the morning - around 8am or afternoon around 12pm. You can definitely grab a seat to relax and drink your coffee at these times. They also have a few outlets available if you need to charge your devices. For the most part, I love this coffee shop. They get your order quickly, they have good snacks available, and the coffeeshop is always clean and tidy. The only complaint I have is sometimes the staff is a little unfriendly. But I guess maybe that just depends on busy it is or their moods. The pumpkin spice and salted maple lattes are delicious! Rumor is... they are opening up a few more locations in the Burgh, so stayed tuned. read more

Oohhhh, the grapefruit lavender latte! Unique and delicious! I met the owner of this marvelous coffee roastery in the hair salon, and I'm so glad I did! A cool atmosphere with a full time coffee roaster on site started by a lovely family with four little boys! Treat yourself to this experience...you'll be glad you did! read more

I never knew Convive existed until a girlfriend invited me to check it out today, but I have a feeling I'm going to become a regular at this place. At Convive you'll find hip decor, lovely atmosphere, and helpful staff. Oh, and most importantly...good coffee. Convive has only been open for about two months at this point, and you can tell it's being received well by coffee-mongers in the North Hills. The space is just lovely; it's so airy and bright. Convive has combined rustic elements such as a wooden bar and shelves made out of tree trunks with very classic touches like marble counters and fresh flowers. Look upwards, and you'll see sparkly chandeliers hanging from the ceiling illuminating an aged National Geographic map of the world. Convive has a great mixture of seating; one area has wooden tables while another has couches and a small fireplace. I could easily see myself grabbing a cup of coffee and hanging out for hours here. The menu at Convive is small, but when you have good coffee, that doesn't matter. The baristas at Convive don't mask their espresso behind shots of sugary flavoring. I ordered an iced mocha, and was pleasantly surprised by the rich flavor. A lot of "trendy" coffee shops are all about the show and don't have great coffee to back themselves up, but at Convive, this is not so. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their drink options. My favorite part about Convive, hands down, is their "Pay it Forward Wall." Three corkboards hang from the walls with coffee cup sleeves pinned to them, each displaying a different message penned by a donor. People essentially "pay it forward" by purchasing a cup of coffee for an unknown future recipient. As you examine the corkboards, you can remove one of the sleeves and take it to a barista for a free cup of coffee if the phrase on the sleeve applies to you. What a wonderful idea! I'm very impressed with Convive, and this is really saying something as I'm no stranger to the coffee shop scene. Next time you're in the North Hills, check it out! read more

I quite enjoyed this coffee shop. Very bright, clean and inviting. Fresh flowers on all the tables. Staff was friendly and knowledgable. The menu wasn't overly crowded which I loved. Along with the tables and chairs there's a couch around a furnace in the back corner. Check out the "Pay it Forward" board. I got a latte. Very good. Perfect amount of steamed milk/froth, maintained wonderful espresso flavor. The coffee art was a cute touch. I bought a bag of Columbia coffee as well and had it ground fresh there. Looking forward to using it tomorrow! read more

Convive Coffee Roastery - Delicious latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This is a solid coffee shop in Mccandless crossing , and something the north hills desperately needed. Modern shop - in appearance and menu offering- with fresh roasted coffee bagged and ready for sale. Several Pour over options, representing the major coffee growing regions. Ice coffee and Nitro on point. I was in Pittsburgh for four days and was here every morning *Prices are commensurate with any other major city shop that offers small batch high quality products - the roster is in the shop! Clearly small batch, even cheaper than my go to in spot in SLC...so don't be cheap you Yelp Yinzers!! read more

A must go to! The coffee here is fabulous and the staff are always friendly. The owners take care to have the best ingredients so you get the best product every time and I have always had a good cup of coffee here. This should be on your list of stops while you are in the shopping plaza or in the area! read more

Convive Coffee Roastery - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This place has the best coffee! I had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners this morning which only further solidified my support for this gem. My husband's go-to is their mocha - I like to add some peppermint to it. Delicious. Locally owned. Highly recommended! read more

Convive coffee is always a classic go to when I think of a coffee shop near me to get some work done. Just be aware that the place is pretty small with only 6/7 places to sit so I'm usually always worried when I make the drive over here that I won't be able to get a table to do my work. The staff is super friendly and the coffee/tea specialty drinks are pretty good. I'd say there drip coffee is pretty acidic and could be better. My small (10 oz) drip coffee was $2.14 + tip. I'll probably try a different blend next time. read more

Best iced oat milk latte in the North Hills! Love their contactless order ahead & pick up strategy during this time.

*** Read for good tips!!!! As a big time coffee shop goer, I am excited that a place like Convive is established in the North Hills. It is a modern coffee shop with specialty beans from all over the world, and roasted on site in small batches. I have frequented this shop for the last year and a half. I travel frequently for work, and this competes with some of the best coffee I have had during those travels. You can tell the beans are very high quality and that special care is taken to develop their recipes. They use all of the best equipment, which is critical to the quality of the beverage (trust me). I would recommend going with a regular espresso, or a pour over. Espresso is a classic drink that they do very well here, and pour overs are my "intro to specialty coffee" go to. If you are looking for a coffee that will change your view on coffee, go with a pour over with an Ethiopian bean. I can't recommend the iced pour over enough. It's simply outstanding. If you're looking for a new coffee shop to try new types of coffee, or looking for a place to sit and study, look no further! I haven't had one bad experience here, with the coffee or service. I look forward to my future visits. read more

Best local coffee stop around! Even better if you are crunched for time like me, they partner with the Joe app and you can get pick up!

I went once on a whim and I'm not sure if the barista was new/overwhelmed or if the coffee is just that bad but sadly this place has the worst coffee I've ever had. My boyfriend got a chai tea latte that tasted like it was 90% milk and I got an iced oat milk latte that was just not good. Save yourself the trip and go literally anywhere else. read more

The Barista was pretentious and made a huge production out of making my two shots of espresso I'm sure she realize he had not made it and I was still waiting. I could have gotten past that if the coffee has been good. It was bitter and acidic. I drink my espresso shot straight and have done so for years so I know what good espresso taste like. Just fair warning if you don't add a lot of extra to coffee you might want to steer clear. read more

This is a hidden gem in Mccandless crossing. Staff is friendly, drinks are delicious and free wi-fi! Great spot to study or meet up with friends. There is not much seating but it makes the place more intimate. read more

Convive Coffee Roastery - What a fabulous touch to a great latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Don't go to this store. The coffee tastes weak or sour, which is indicative of the bean quality being poor such as being acidic. Furthermore the state of the place is dangerous. The carpet is defective and sticking up. I witness a woman trip over this carpet and injure herself. read more

Good selection of coffees, cold brew on nitro, breakfast quiches, nice atmosphere. Horchata latte! No breakfast burritos though read more

Convive Coffee Roastery - Cold brew on nitro! And good little breakfast quiches. - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Was there last Sunday. The coffee was good, but the music was punk rock (and way too loud), and the bathrooms were dirty. Part of the experience for me is the location. read more

This ain't no secret, Convive was a surprise. Surrounded by the Old Navys and Massage Envys of a [mostly] chain shopping district, a CUSTOM SLAYER can be found executing perfectly pulled espressi. That's impressive anywhere, but especially so in this case, since this is the first Slayer in Pittsburgh, and it's even custom and it's barely even in Pittsburgh. But that's not all. You will also find a dude named Ryland roasting wonderfully sourced coffees on a nice little Deidrich. Yes, they roast. And they roast because they actually know how to roast, not because of lack of better knowledge. The pour-over I chose was of the Congo variety. It was appropriately sweet with a great complexity. I enjoyed it enough to emit audible words of praise to my buddies. I can't complain about such. Plus Ryland was cool and let us sample other coffees after we talked to him long enough for him to realize that we were coffee peoples. I wasn't looking for specialty coffee in McCandless Crossing but I was delighted with what I found. (Also, Convive, Commonplace and Klvn. Is this a cult? They all sound vaguely similar. And can I join?) read more

Yikes. The shop is cute and the other patrons were really helpful but the staff there, awkward and, eh. When I asked the staff, "so what's good, I've never been here", since it was my first time visiting they didn't say a word and just looked at me. Two guys at the counter. Just standing there, swirling their personal concoctions in mugs, looking at me. Oh. So. Awkward. That is my standard casual question at new places. Usually they jump in and offer a couple things they individually make that are great, or that are their personal favorites, or that the shops pushing, or up sell my latte with a brownie. I like stuff. That's why I'm Elite. I'm easy to up sell. Nope. They just looked at me like I was from Mars riding the DC Subway for the first time- While they were experienced riders. Kindly not saying a thing so I wouldn't feel even more foolish in my ignorance. Again. Oh. So. Awkward. On top oh the awkwardness of ordering, I was in disbelief of how tiny my drink size was for a $6 iced latte to go. Whoa. I was shocked, SHOCKED at small the cup was and much I had paid. I did ask if the nail salon was nearby. I did find this location because I mistakenly thought Colors Nail Spa was located near them. What I found amusing was the response from the gentleman working. His reply was along the lines, 'ya know we get asked where it is by our customers all the time but I don't know where it is'. It made me laugh. Thankfully two ladies in the shop were able to point me in the right direction. read more

A long time friend of mine and I have been trying different coffee shops when we get together. I searched for one that was located midway between our homes and this is the one that came up. Being 4 1/2 stars and having great reviews makes it even more eye-catching. It is located in one of the strip shops in McCandless Crossing and the interior was decorated as most coffee shops are: chalkboard menu signs, tiered displays of baked goods, and lights dropping from the ceiling over the main counter and cash register. Since I am not a coffee drinker, I always lean towards the chai latte. I ordered the 8 oz in a mug as my friend and I would be chatting for awhile. In addition, I ordered a blueberry muffin since I had missed lunch and my bill for just those two items was nearly $8! EIGHT DOLLARS. I guess I should have been more attentive on prices, although I did not see a label for the muffin - I should have asked. The chai seemed smaller than an 8oz (I'm sure it wasn't), and it was not the most impressive flavored chai I have had. I know this place is known for its variety of coffees but if they are serving other drinks, they should be just as tasty. Second, the muffin was dry and tasted as if it had been sitting behind the counter for several days. I was not impressed. This coffee shop is not one I will return to, especially with the lot of them to choose from in the Pittsburgh area. Our adventures of trying different shops will continue elsewhere. read more

So happy that they have dairy free milk options. They have the best iced latte. If your allergic to milk, definitely try the oat milk. I was hesitant at first, but now I'm hooked. Easy to order online and quick easy pickup. read more

I've been insta-stalking this place since before it was open and I am so glad it met and exceeded my expectations. Parking sucks, but sucks no more than trying to find a parking spot in Lawrenceville. Yet it's still got that hip, Lawrenceville vibe with the wholesome heartfelt motives of a small town. I love that there are boards full of super relatable pay-it-forward coffee sleeves. If I weren't extremely excited to get my hands on some Joe, I could have taken a gander at the board and found something specifically tailored to me needs. But alas, the coffee did not disappoint. I highly recommend. read more

This is the best espresso coffee i have had so far in US. It was a suggestion from my neighbour and friend. It was total worth trying. I had the ethiopian blend espresso and its was amazing aromatic delicious coffee. Recommend for solo travellers and fres brew coffee lovers. The best part of it all is that you can witness the process of making a coffee complety and you will be blown away with the aroma coffee in the shop. read more

One of the "to-dos" when we travel is to find good pourover coffee. Not sure how it started (perhaps my love of coffee? perhaps it's just an amusing thing to do?), but whenever we're in a different city, we search for a coffee roaster that does a good pourover. I came upon Convive, from searching instagram with the hashtag #pittsburghfoodie (hey, it really does work). As it was on the way to downtown Pittsburgh, we thought it was worth the stop. It's located in kind of a random spot off of Route 19. It's nestled in a new strip of stores- there's Dick's, a Barre Code, etc, around it- it's not your usual location for a hipster coffee spot (but we thank you for having ample parking!). It's a cute space though. Very rustic/somewhat hipster when you walk in- the coffee roasting machine is to your left, and they have various Japanese siphons or pourover items on the shelves. I ordered my usual medium pourover. Usually, I ask the barista what they recommend (every one of them has different tastes), and the barista recommended the Kenyan blend- a darker blend with wine notes, she stated. It was a good cup of coffee. Not the smoothest I've had, but overall, good, and good to the fact I didn't need to dilute it with creamer (I could drink it black). If you happen to be on route 19 (say, passing Wexford or something), check out Convive for a good pourover or siphon. It's definitely better than going to Starbucks, for sure! read more

I have gone here now twice with my boyfriend. It has the best environment for chatting or studying. I love their pour over and my boyfriend always gets espresso. We also have been trying their banana chocolate chip muffins which I enjoy. Sorry I have no pictures but I was too hungry to wait. I suggest having a conversation with the owners they are so sweet!! read more

I wandered in here after a girl recommended it at the shop I was at across the street. First impression, absolutely adorable and clean on the inside. I love that they have a rustic look going on, very cute! The owner was working and super nice, very chatty and interested in pleasing his fellow customers. Plain and simple me, I got a latte with almond milk (tasty). Only downfall is a small latte came to $4.01. My coffee addiction is going to make me have to get a second job! :-) Recommend. read more

Loved both the Mars and the McCandless locations! Great draft latte-I really struggle to find a good dairy alternative with my coffee--I'm allergic to oats (mildly) but love oat milk so sometimes I go for it anyways since it's so much better than almond at most places. Their draft latte had a blend of coconut, almond, and cashew milk that had that perfect thickness AND without oat milk. HEAVENLY. I love the vibe too and it was a great spot for both a meeting and a date morning with my husband. Baristas are so friendly and the pickup window at the Mars location is awesome! If you're planning to go to the Mars location to do work, they do not have WiFi yet in house--so make sure you have a hotspot or choose another location! read more

Great tasting cappuccino with beautiful artwork plus a scone. Heaven.

Great iced coffee and nice clean modern space. Staff is very friendly as well. They have small seating areas (couches and bistro tables) where you can relax or set up your laptop and do some work. They had some pastries and bagels and also smoothies on the menu. I didn't pay attention to what else they had but looks like they do all the standard coffee drinks you expect out of a modern coffee shop. read more

I never like coffee unless it is perfect but I came in off the street. Dude suggested their folksy home brew. It was medium but holds up with a nice rounded sweetness. Plus dude offered me a mug instead of a cup. You know who you are, thanks for making this visitor from Philly very happy. read more

Excellent selection of coffees, teas and such. Easy access within a shopping center. Visually impressive internally. Great Espresso.

So, my husband and I love Convive as it is. Awesome house blend coffee (Folksy blend) that always hits the spot. The inside of Convive itself is inviting and comfortable and we love the Pay it Forward wall. BUT! We recently used Convive to cater our wedding. We took advantage of the mobile espresso cart and it was the BEST decision! We had lattes, cappuccino, coffee, cider...something for everyone! Our guests raved about the coffee and it fit our wedding day vibe perfectly. Convive is extremely reasonable in price and was super flexible with meeting our needs for the big day. I cannot say enough good things! We are customers for life. read more
