4.5 stars. Commonplace Coffee is a specialty coffee roaster, retailer, and wholesale service…read moreprovider. It has a roastery, bakery, and several cafes in Southwestern Pennsylvania, and it provides training and equipment to other businesses. My husband and I were customers of this cafe in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood one time. The menu listed coffees, espressos, lattes, teas, hot cocoa, cookies, muffins, scones, sandwiches, etcetera. A refrigerator contained yogurts, juices, oat milk, and other bottled beverages. Shelves held bags of coffees and kettles. Employees kindly took my husband's order and payment and promptly made our beverages. Some tables and chairs were inside the cafe, so we sat down to enjoy our beverages. Other customers were using the dining area to read, spend time with family and friends, and work on laptops. I rate the Chai Latte has 5 stars and the holiday Sugar Plum Latte as 4.5 stars. We enjoyed their flavors. Each beverage was 12 ounces, and their total price was $11 plus tax and tip. I did notice that the cafe was very humid because of the cold weather outside and the many customers inside. The windows had much condensation. I wonder if a dehumidifer would reduce the indoor humidity.

I came in to study on a Saturday. The place is packed and continues to see a nice helping of…read morecustomers as the night continues. The set up is very middle Eastern I would say. The front has some wicker chairs and tables which are very small. As you move toward the back there are small sitting rooms where you take off your shoes and sit on a padded "floor". The back has some more chairs and tables. Outlets are hard to find. You most likely will share a sitting area as well. One note is, I think they have a wifi limit where only a certain number of people can connect. I tried all night to get a connection and could not for any of my devices, nor could my friend. Overall the ambiance is catered toward chatting rather than studying as the tables are very small and slow or no wifi. I like the night vibes it has though, we need more late night 3rd spaces like this one!! I got a hummus plate and ginger tea. The ginger tea was just okay. The ginger was overpowering in not a good way. It highlighted the spiciness of ginger without letting any type of "tea flavor" through. It tasted more like ginger water. For a tea house, I thought it would have more depth. The hummus platter was very yummy! The pita was warm and the olive oil on the hummus added a nice touch to it. I think I would have enjoyed the experience more had the tables not been as wobbly, the WiFi worked at any point, the tea had a bit more nuance to it, and the cloying smell wasn't there. It is a very good chatting spot for late night meetings ups with great food!

I stopped by here two Sundays ago with my family for our morning coffee. Every weekend we try to…read morehit up a new local coffee shop and on this morning it happened to be Delanie's Coffee in Shadyside. I honestly have not been in the area much lately and was surprised to see its prime location on South Highland in that East Liberty, Shadyside and Friendship corridor. The inside of the shop was packed by the time we got inside so I did not get to see much of it other than the coffee bar and the large selection of baked goods. For my coffee this morning I went with a butter beer cold brew while my wife went with an iced Almond Joy latte. The menu described mine as cold brew with butterscotch syrup and cheesecake sweet cream. My wife's was described as just like the candy bar with dark chocolate and coconut topped with coconut flakes. My coffee actually ended up tasting pretty good. The butterscotch tasted somewhat similar to caramel but the cold brew was definitely the star. It was rich and strong which I always appreciate. The cheesecake sweet cream was also a nice addition as it was sweet like you would expect but also had a bit of tartness that reminded me of actual cheesecake. My wife also enjoyed her coffee and especially liked the combination of chocolate, coconut and coffee flavors. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My wife and I both enjoyed our drinks and I would definitely be interested in trying some of the pastries next time.

They have three sugar-free flavors: vanilla, caramel, and hazelnut. Next visit was on a very cold Saturday morning to try Oram's donuts. Those donuts are huge and very flavorful. Got here early to get our choice of the selection. The case was filled with donuts, cinnamon rolls, bear claws, and more. I chose a filled donut with chocolate icing and hubby got a jelly filled donut. Both are very good. Love the friendly, quick service from the employees. They never rush you and are so kind. There is a main level dining area and an upper area (3-4 steps or a lift) with plenty of small tables and chairs, upholstered chairs with tables, and an enclosed room for serious studying. WiFi. Restrooms. They have what you need to relax, meet friends, or study.

I especially love when they open the space up with their outdoor seating, lots of space available for mostly students to come and do work in a homey environment. The coffee was a bit cold, but I liked their dark roast. I have tried their specialty lattes and have found them to be okay, not really worth getting again. I truly enjoyed their pecan roll, but all their pastries are pretty solid, especially love that they come from a variety of other local businesses. I think it's not my go to for coffee in the area but pretty reliable for a pastry and one of the easiest places to find a seat to study/do work.
