Cute little bakery that makes for a great weekend breakfast spot! The savory vegetarian hand pies are worth a visit, either to go or to enjoy in their popular dining area. The vinegar pie is also a must-have - don't knock it until you try it!

Vanilla latte & breakfast sandwich

Breakfast sandwich was great! Decent vanilla latte. Staff wasn't very friendly. Plenty of seating

Vinegar pie
Ken L.

It is very cute and vibey in here!! I love the decor and furniture in here. They have a lot of homemade pastries. I got their signature vinegar pie but it really wasn't my thing. They had a lot of other amazing looking pastries though. Definitely need to come back and try more things. Service is pretty quick and staff was nice. They also sell alcohol here too in the fridges. Looks like a nice place to work from.

Cortado and cappuccino
Adelle Y.

Was not a fan of the breakfast sandwich but one of my favorite cortados in PGH! I recommend topping it with their homemade marshmallows (oddly delicious).

Very vibey corner coffee shop vibe. Modern disco vibe. Princess cold brew is cold brew with sweetened condensed milk which is sweet but not too sweet, came out in like 5 seconds. Got a seat right away and sound is at like a murmur level and music isn't that loud. I see like 60% of the people here studying and 40% yapping so def can do both. Would be a regular if I lived in the neighborhood, lowk might be the best study coffee in North Oakland area. Came here with an absolute cutie to grind out some work and we had a good time, kept getting distracted by his good looks but worth it.

Takeout drink

This spot always has the nicest baristas. House made syrups. Tasty custom crafted drinks. And delicious pastries and snacks. I go out of my way to visit here as often as I can. I have never had a bad experience!

Lou C.

Nice spot with window seating and ample table seating. Plus some outside seating. Prices are comparable to other coffee shops in the area. The espresso in the lattes is slightly bitter, but the chai was a favorite. Small selection of baked goods. Service was very friendly.

Cookies and cream pie

I've had a couple things here, but I'd say stick to the pastries/food. I'm not a fan of their coffee and would not get again, but I'm not a huge coffee drinker, so take my opinion on their coffee with a grain of salt. I also don't like their matcha, I am a big matcha drinker, but it's also just not great. The desserts however! So far, I've had the shortbread, cookies and cream pie, basque cheesecake, and vinegar pie. I loved them all! The vinegar pie is delicious, stuck to my teeth a lot, but so worth it! I also loved the cookies and cream pie! The cookie crust is stellar. It's got a bit of salt, so it balances the filling perfectly. The cookie also isn't overdone at all, so you can slice through it with your fork without having to put too much strength into it. Beautiful! Plenty of seating inside and there's outlets and WiFi. My only complaint here is that there's no water readily available. If you want water, you'll have to ask one of the people behind the counter (who are all very nice and would love to get you some tap!)

With my girlfriend Polina who also likes good eats

I was visiting Pittsburgh and my relatives took me to the Geppetto Cafe for brunch. They'd never…read morebeen, but it was recommended. I ordered the scrambled eggs and a side of potatoes. They ordered the Chicken Panini sandwich and the Challah French Toast. My scrambled eggs weren't scrambled and weren't good. See attached picture - it's the sorriest looking 'scrambled eggs' I've ever seen. I worked as a short order cook in college ('71-77) and mastered the 'art of cooking eggs'. I offered to show them how to make scrambled....they laughed. My side order of potatoes weren't much better. Overly seasoned with this onion salt that made them somewhat unpalatable. Well, my relatives fared better than I did! The Chicken Panini sandwich was tasty - the chicken was tender and the Gouda cheese made it very tasty. The Classic French Toast, with strawberries was also delicious - slightly crispy exterior and a light and fluffy interior! While my breakfast was, unfortunately, not very good, theirs was.

Good. This was a well run place with a fun theme and generally good food. We ordered takeout, and…read moreeverything was ready on time and very nicely packaged. Giving the restaurant a call to place an order seems like a better option than ordering online, just based on the differences between their published menu and online ordering site. I didn't spend long inside, but the space seemed inviting and clean. In terms of the food, I was generally happy. We were aiming for relatively easy going brunch food, and they delivered. The house salad was pretty good, though the avocado seemed unnecessary and the goat cheese was a little intense. More cheese than necessary. The veggie omelette was exceptional. Exactly what we were aiming for. The crepes were an interesting option, and the actual crepe portion was well done. The fillings were somewhat restrained, but that's probably intentional. Pairing a salad with the crepe seemed like the right move. All told, this was a good experience. The food was nicely presented. The vegetables were generally fresh. A much better experience than I anticipated going in.

The staff here walked me through their menu. My drink was delicious. And I'll be sure to. One back again. The decor was cool and this place was very clean. I was glad I stopped in.

I feel very mixed about this coffee shop. We set out to find a coffee shop where we could sit down…read moreand enjoy a coffee. After walking around the neighborhood, this one had seating, so we went inside. First, I'll say the coffee we tried was pretty good - a cappuccino and a brown sugar cinnamon latte. The barista asked "for here or to go" and the drinks still came in a paper cup anyway despite us saying "for here". I really enjoy having a coffee in an actual glass/mug when I say "for here". The ambiance was a bit confusing... not really sure what they were going for in the space, things were a bit choppy and thrown together. Kinda felt like you were in someone's garage with cluttered items on rickety shelves behind the counter. Our barista was very nice, but an awkward moment occurred when they were ringing us up - barista asked for a tip but then told us not to put the tip on the credit card because the owner steals from them. We felt this was a little uncomfortable and gave some unwelcoming energy. We also tried a Nutella croissant, which was very good! I think this shop has a lot of potential with some changes to service and decor.
