I ordered a small pot of tea, which was wonderful on a cold day -- but the selection of other items looked great! The barista was really helpful, too. The high ceilings and somewhat antique decor really fit in with the history of the South Side. I'll be back for sure!

The pastries were also good, with the raspberry lime scone having a lovely flavor and perfect with the coffee. Not just the food, but the vibe of this place is perfect! It's cozy with a mix of couches and tables, perfect to study, chat, or read, plus their outside little patio has beautiful plants and is a great spot to enjoy your drink. The staff are also very friendly and helpful, Such a good spot to stop by!

It's dog-friendly if you want to pop in and grab your drink with your pup, and they post mini Polaroids of the dogs that have stopped by on the wall. The drinks are excellent and crafted by talented baristas. You can sometimes get a bit of a line but they move it along quickly. The best motivation to stop by is that I can nearly always find street parking within a block of here on East Carson, convenient and it costs maybe $.40 for the amount of time you need on the Pittsburgh parking app.

I could not have been greeted by a more friendly counter attendant this morning! What a charm!…read more Stumbled into here almost by accident, while waiting for another shop on the street to open up for business. Had to take a couple donuts "to go" so I could just get out of the elements of the weather. I'm so glad I did. I learned that all of the donuts are made fresh in house DAILY with real ingredients... and there was a wide variety of options! You can tell just by looking at them, that they're fresh and different than others you've ever tried before. Check them out. Truly, you can tell that these are handmade donuts. Yum! The shop is cute, a bit rustic looking, but suits Carson Street so well. There are some little stickers and nick nacks around the shop, but nothing too crazy, just very particular and with purpose. Please stop in here next time you're around for a visit.

They have a few different flavors whenever I go and I always like to get each one because they are always all delicious.

Fries are the kind that have some sort of breading and are nice and crispy. Today I got the BLT and I would definitely get it again! The side salad was kind of mediocre (I was trying to make a healthier choice and avoid the fries). Got a beer (not pictured). Usually the service is very good, but I'm going to be honest, it was pretty sad today. My girlfriend and I agreed it seemed like the bartender both hated his job, and was not good at it. We will still be back. Cool little Southside place with pinball machines and a relaxed bar atmosphere.

The food is good, as long as you go in with the right expectations. This isn't fine dining, but it's a nice take on vegetarian-accessible pub food, slightly elevated. The vegan tofu wrap was nicely done with crispy fried tofu, but it was heavily dependent on the availability of various sauces for flavor. The "disc brake bean cakes" were somewhat unique, but still good when fully assembled with all the relevant toppings. They would probably be better described as black bean crepes with Tex-Mex toppings. I highly recommend ordering several different sauces to go with your meal (buffalo, barbecue, diablo, etc.). We ordered takeout this time, and the overall ordering experience was good. There is an online ordering page, but the items on that page aren't completely aligned with menus on the web site. We ended up calling to place an order, which was still very easy. All the food was well packaged and ready to go exactly when they said it would be. This is a great South Side destination, especially when you're looking for something comfortable and relatively low key but still fun.

My favorite is the blanc and noir gourmet pancakes which come with Nutella, vanilla cream, and either strawberries or bananas. The attention to detail is also great here. I usually get hot tea and they bring out a tea bag holder and, if you ask for cream, they bring it out in a cute espresso cup. One thing to note is that you order at the counter, but they bring your food to you at your table.
