The coffee bar surpasses expectations. The drinks are great, especially because of their unique syrups and drink combinations. I have enjoyed lattes and fruit flavored lemonades, and my favorites have been the strawberry matcha and the blue velvet latte, which featured blueberry roobios syrup. The employees have also been very nice and it is cute inside. There is space to sit and read or work near the coffee bar - you are able to take your computer and work there with a drink from the coffee bar, without even needing to buy a book. It is a great multifunctional community space.

I enjoy this place. They have a typewriter and they stand for a good cause. The staff I've…read moreexperienced is cool depending on who's there. It was quiet when I first began going. Some employees play music which I found distracting. Another employee seemed to have monitored me during my entire visit; maybe she thought I was going to steal a $4.99 book. Idk The place is not as clean as it could be, such as the bathroom, and some of the chairs need to be wiped off or completely replaced as they are stained and have an odor. I would not get any beverages from here unless it's sealed. The hours fluctuate often. I have made one too many trips during the weekday, weekend, daytime or afternoon to find the door locked. And I'm not aware that there's communication given ahead of time about their fluctuating hours for the given day. If you need to get your fix from a book, just buy it because there's no guarantee you can read it the next time you plan to.

This place has a very apparent and pointed purpose for existing. Not necessarily to convert everyone into being anarchists, but more so wanting to encourage free, critical thinking.

Most of the books there are used, so they're sold at a cheaper price but they have new books too. The used books are almost all in really great shape. Outside of the store, they have book carts with $5 and under books. The store is two floors, and the upper floor has a cozy reading area. The shelves in the store are separated by genre and there are also tables with owner-recommended books. In addition to books, there are also plants for sale. The place is so nicely decorated and such a nice environment for reading. To be honest, it doesn't even feel like walking into a store, and it's more like a cozy home. As a plus, I think this place has a cat around sometimes, but I didn't see the cat during my visit.

They had a good amount of books but I was expecting a lower price for being used.

In addition to our purchase, the box contained a sweet handwritten note and some adorable stickers. We will happily buy again from this site again!

It's like a gift shop you might find in The Museum of Cool Things-- treasures you will likely have never seen & certainly won't find anywhere else in Pittsburgh. For example, if you're looking for one-of-a-kind women's clothing-- a stylish dress, top or bottom for the woman who cherishes beauty & values quality, yet hopes to not see what she's wearing on every fourth person she sees-- Divertido now carries the Karakorum line of clothing-- designed in northern Italy and constructed in India. It will beautify every neighborhood she walks in.
