Amanda H.

I really liked this little coffee shop. It's bright and the barista was welcoming and friendly! Seating available inside and outside. I ordered their drip coffee (courtesy of de Fer beans), egg bacon and cheese breakfast sandwich, and a couple baked goods to go. The breakfast sandwich was great, aside from the fact that the inside was cold. The egg on it was big, square, and fluffy. The bacon was thick and very good! They also have bag lunches with sandwiches to go. The beer fridge had a decent looking selection too. I had to try this vinegar pie after seeing it on the menu and reading reviews. Think of pecan pie without the nuts. Very sweet and slightly tangy almost. The top has a sugary chewy topping. The coffee toffee scone was also very good. Very strong coffee flavor in it and the texture was perfect. Highly recommend this cute little cafe!

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.

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

This is a decently popular, somewhat upscale cake and sweet shop. I decided to give it a try and…read morejust taste one of their classic frosted brownie. It was alright. Honestly nothing too special, and quite a bit more expensive than at other places in the city and in the area. The frosting was pretty good, pretty rich, but the brownie itself was fairly dry. Nothing really special about it. Portion was pretty good though. I may come back to try a few other items, but I just didn't find this place all that special.

We picked a chocolate cake with chocolate icing, and it was outstanding in every way. Everyone at…read morethe table agreed it was delicious. What stood out most was the icing. Instead of the usual heavy, dense frosting, it had a soft yet still wonderfully creamy without being too heavy. I later learned they use a mousse-style icing which complemented the moist chocolate cake and the thin outer layers of chocolate beautifully. The flavor was also rich without being too sweet. Altogether, it was exceptional: balanced, flavorful, and clearly made with care. If you get the chance, their chocolate cake is absolutely worth trying.

Maybe it is because I'm not from Pittsburgh so I don't have the fond attachment to this place that…read moreeveryone here seems to have, but I just don't get the hype. There is a huge variety of options and they have seasonal specialties. They also have a cafe that servers sandwiches, coffees and other specialty drinks. I can't say I didn't enjoy the items I've gotten here, I just don't think that they are "the best around" or really any better than bakeries where I don't have to stand in long lines to get items. One example I'll give is the paczki. I love paczki and good ones can be hard to find. Theirs are huge and they have a wide variety of flavors. But honestly, I'd rather get smaller ones from a different local bakery where I feel I'm supporting small and they have more flavor than just "sweet". This place just feels so assembly line/factory to me.

10 stars if I could! As a New Yorker living in Pittsburgh, I take my cheesecake seriously!!!…read moreKyle's Cakes N'at absolutely delivered. I got to try the plain cheesecake, buckeye, lavender, double chocolate, biscoff, and key lime pie, and honestly every single one was delicious! His cakes are made with alot of labor & love! What made this experience even more amazing, was getting to go behind the scenes and actually help make a ton of different cheesecakes. Such a fun, hands on experience getting to see Kyle in action and the amount of hard work that goes into every order. I loved hearing his stories about his childhood and his family influences. Kyle is only 31 and has owned his business for over 7 years! That's impressive. You can really see the passion behind his baking. He works incredibly hard and even sacrifices a lot of his social life to keep growing his business, perfecting his craft, and supporting his community. Small business, big story! definitely a spot worth supporting in Pittsburgh!!!!! Thank you Kyle & Lisa

Kyle's Cakes N'at knows how to do cheesecake!…read more We came across their booth at the Greensburg Night Market and besides the four mini cheesecakes staring you down from the booth display... Kyle's nails marketing with a very recognizable and obvious logo! We immediately wanted to get a slice of the key lime cheesecake... and luckily snagged the last one. Prices seem high until you see the size and taste these cakes!! Quick and easy service, since it's all just slice and serving! Great vendor to find at any market!
