KLVN was a nice place to visit on my way out of town. The service was fast and the staff were friendly. They had several vegan options and an accessible water station. The coffee was good. I enjoyed the warm tones and natural decor. There were limited seats with backs. Most of the seating were hard stools. This makes it difficult to hang out and enjoy your coffee. It is fun how they have to roasting area out in the open. read more

Super modern looking place with big windows and lots of light. Pretty crowded with people doing work, not exactly the coziest place to hang out, but good for studying. The coffee here is super solid, with some nice seasonal picks too! I do find them a little pricy, especially on the food side. I found the breakfast burrito a bit overhyped and small, though the egg, hash brown, and ham were pretty good as a combination. Was not a fan of the sauce they gave with it, kind of had no flavor at all, and wanted more of a toast in the outside of the tortilla , but they do cook the inside stuff well. Overall, would say worth it for a good coffee drink! read more

I stopped by KLVN on a rainy Saturday afternoon for a coffee to go, and it was the right choice. While the décor is minimalist, the flavor profile of the coffee definitely isn't. I ordered an iced cinnamon plum latté, and it was easily the best coffee I've had in a while. If you are ordering a drink, you will need to wait, because each drink is very carefully done by the baristas. But trust me, it's worth the wait. I will definitely be stopping by KLVN for another iced latté, and I can't wait to see what other season flavors they offer as the weather continues to cool down! read more

Honestly such a beautiful cafe, it might be my favorite in PGH! The design and decor is beautiful and it's so nice to catch up with a friend or cowork from here. They have really quality coffee and I love the espresso tonics here whether they're hot or cold. They did a collab with Jackworth across the street - a spicy Ginger beer espresso tonic that was fire. It's definitely got a kick to it! They also have a breakfast menu that I need to come back and try! Definitely recommend this spot if you're a coffee person! Staff is nice! read more

I really enjoy the coffee here, it is great quality and makes great lattes. I recently tried a blueberry muffin and it was pretty good! I will say the atmosphere isn't the most welcoming. There are lots of seating options and is usually pretty busy. read more

Our favorite coffee shop in Pittsburgh! In an industrial part of town, KLVN is a coffee shop in a spacious, design-forward building. Walk inside and order a coffee or latte. My maple latte was the best I've had. They also sell a few pastries like croissants. There's plenty of seating and outlets. Restrooms are in the back. read more

Hidden Gem FR. Fav cafe in PGH so far. Had the most delicious strawberry matcha I've had here- on the sweeter end which is what I like. Rivals what I've had in LA. Aesthetic is beautiful, modern, wood, artsy vibe that really puts you in a locked in mood. Quiet and ambient. Feels local and homey. Found seats immediately, lots of 2 person seaters- hard for bigger groups to study. Wish they ran just like an hour later but def a great place for morning/afternoon grinding. Friendly staff. read more

#1 cafe in PGH. They make a perfect cortado and the baristas are so skilled with art. They have great seasonal syrups and their food is amazing. The avocado toast is the best ingredients the city and the breakfast burrito is also solid. They used to have my favorite breakfast sandwich. I highly recommend. read more

My top 3 favorite cafes to study at. Drinks are great, highly recommend the dandelion hot chocolate. Their seasonal specials always impress as well. Staff is super nice and friendly. The ambiance is also beautiful. I really love their interior design and the open space, and you really can't find another cafe like this in Pittsburgh. One of my favorite details is their collection of clay cups. Only thing is tables are a bit small. Parking is also convenient, with plenty of free Street parking space. Overall, my go to place to study on a weekday. read more

Wife and I were in town for the weekend and wanted to try a local coffee shop. KLVN Coffee Lab did not disappoint. The location is split between the roasting side and more of the coffee shop side. It has a modern coffee shop aesthetic. The barista was friendly taking orders and the coffee came out in a timely manner. The coffee was delicious and the avocado toast exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!!! read more

Food was good. Coffee was NOT. I ordered an iced latte. The milk in it was curdled (?) I've never had that happen before. So there were chunks of coagulated milk throughout. My partner ordered a drip coffee and they apparently forgot about it. So we sat there, ate, and still didn't have it. [It was our first time here so we didn't know if they were doing some time consuming method and tried to be patient.] We checked the counter for it twice. After finally asking for it, they realized their mistake but made no attempt to make up for it. He took it to go since we'd already been there for 25 mins. For food, we had the breakfast burrito and tahini pistachio chocolate chip cookie. Both were really good. However because of the terrible coffee experience we won't be back. read more

Coffee good; cold brew was balanced and refreshing. Ambiance is super clean and minimalist. Staff? Horrible. Super cold and unwelcoming. I am not sure what their problem is but just having a basic interaction with them was enough to put me off from coming back again. It felt like talking to a bunch of pissed off, ungrateful 16 year old girls with a bone to pick. If this place had some smiles and some banter it would be way better. read more

I stopped by here a couple of Sundays ago with my wife and twins for our morning coffees. Every Sunday we try to hit up a local coffee shop and on this day it happened to be Klvn Coffee Labs turn. This actually wasn't our first visit to Klvn and I was happy to be in the area to visit it again. The first thing that I noticed on both of my visits here was the giant coffee roaster. It's always good to see and gives you a great idea that you will be getting fresh roasted coffee. Besides that everything is industrial feeling with concrete floors and then lots of wood furniture. They have plants hanging from the ceiling as well and both times that I was here I got a major hipster vibe. For our coffees on this morning, I went with a latte and added the nihilistic caramel while my wife went a latte and added the honey syrup. My coffee here ended up tasting quite fresh and I really enjoyed it. The flavor of the coffee was front and center which I loved but I was a little disappointed in the caramel flavor. However once I made it about three quarters of the way through my cup it was apparent why. At that point I started getting a super strong flavor of caramel which was quite tasty. Apparently it hadn't integrated so well into the drink and while I wish it had, I did enjoy drinking the last little bit which was almost pure caramel. My wife enjoyed her latte her and the flavor and touch of sweetness that the honey added to her coffee. The bottom line is that I would stop back here again in the future. I have enjoyed my flavored lattes on both of my visits here and would like to try some of their other stuff as well. read more

Update: Used to be a regular here, but haven't been coming in for some time as the coffee shop isn't what it used to be. The quality of beans has gone down. My pour overs at home haven't been the same using the beans from there the past couple of purchases. Also, going in for an iced Americano has been a hit or miss. Really have to check who's in that day to commit to getting a drink from there. read more

Brought a couple friends to Klvn earlier this week. I always love coming here and this visit was no different. The atmosphere is so unique and refreshing and my friends loved it. We ordered 2 matcha lattes with vanilla and 1 hot chocolate for my non-coffee friend. It was difficult to find seating during a busy weekend afternoon but we managed to find 3 seats. The drink-ware is so cool and the ceramic/clay cups add such a nice touch. The staff was so nice and ordering was a breeze. All of us really enjoyed our drinks and my non coffee friend tried my latte and I think we have converted them into a matcha latte fan! I seriously think this is the best place in Pittsburgh for a matcha latte. Can't wait to come back and it's a perfect spot for studying or catching up with friends. read more

A bit pretentious and spendy for just okay coffee. Not bad, good even, but not great. The inside is very cozy though and I could see it being a nice place to dial in some work or reading. read more

Trendy, almost too trendy. Although I just ordered a cappuccino, they handed it to me in a to-go cup; their subtle way of asking me to leave. Although the decor and ambiance were warm, the baristas were cold. But I can't fault the coffee, it was excellent. read more

This is one of my top places in the city to go to for coffee. I think the beverages and beans rival similar spots in bigger cities throughout the country. Burundi Nemba is my go-to for whole beans. Service is beyond amazing. Love, love, love the decor and design of the shop. read more

The best light roast coffee in the city. I've been a recurring customer at KLVN for years, and they consistently put out great light roasts. I have not had a bad one yet. Its arguably my favorite cafe as well given the aesthetic. I love the stoneware mugs, the furniture, the openness of the shop. To note, it never necessarily seems quiet if you're going to get work done or study (if that's something that matters to you, it doesn't to us). I will always get their bagged coffee as well (a bit on the pricey side, but the highest quality). 10/10 coffee and shop, and it's my first recommendation for anyone who wants to dip their toe into light roasts. read more

Definitely some of the best coffee in Pittsburgh! Stopped in today to meet up with one of my friends and I absolutely loved it! The atmosphere in the cafe is spectacular, as there is a very natural feel that's is given off by the wooden decor and wooden cups they serve the coffee in. The baristas were all VERY friendly, and they flew around making everyone's coffee while maintaining the quality. I ordered the Americano which was absolutely delicious! It had a little bit of a fruity after taste that I wasn't expecting, but didn't mind. The only downside was that my friend and I had to speak a little more loudly than usual so we could hear each other over the music. I'll definitely be back here soon as the coffee was fantastic! read more

Love this place. Coffee is roasted in house, they use top grade milks, and always have creative new drinks rotating through. Vibe is 10/10, kind of a desert-surf melange, which makes sense once you're there. Adequate seating to work from on a weekday. And some of the best coffee and matcha drinks in Pittsburgh for sure. In the top 3. read more

I definitely need to go back and try more. Their space felt very modern desert vibes with cool local pieces for sale by the register.

Their baristas know what they're doing! read more

Was recommended this place by a few different locals for being the "odd one out" when it comes to quirky coffee shops in Pittsburgh. I'd say that description was fairly accurate. Think city/LA-vibes mixed with a touch of hipster. I was sad to see that there weren't many crafted non-caffeinated beverages, so I went with a local kombucha from Nashville. My friend ordered a dirty matcha drink and she said it was nice. We decided to do a little work. The one downfall of this place was the lack of outlets, which forced us to leave quite early from working at the location and headed to a different spot. I ended up also purchasing a hat cause they were so fun and loved the designs. Great coffee shop with random music and good boho vibes. Would recommend! read more

A local recommended this place to us and unfortunately, we wish we had gone elsewhere. Poor customer service -- came here on a Wednesday morning. Barista did not bother to make eye contact or greet us, and asked for our order while working on other drinks. We felt more like an inconvenience than a valued customer. I want to point out that we were the only other customers as well, no line and the place was not busy. This was our first time here and will be our last. Not a welcoming environment at all in spite of the inclusive messaging and flags. Disappointing. Two stars bc the coffee was fine. read more

Off the beaten path in East Liberty, this cafe was popular on the day of my first visit on a Sunday morning in February. We scored street parking in one of the spots out front. We also scored one of the tables inside. The space was warm and well lit with natural light pouring in from the street side wall of windows and doors. The drinks are served in artsy pottery and the wood furniture is artsy. The floors, ceiling, and wall beams are industrial chic. The service was friendly and knowledgeable. Some patrons were having conversations like us, others studying together, others working away on laptops, some reading books. People of all ages including families. It was a very chill ambiance. read more
