Then a breakfast sandwich and later a chai latte. All were good, the coffee and breakfast sandwich are excellent. Hanna and crew are so welcoming. Always try to visit when I am in the area; these are the businesses to support. Guest and others mentioned how they liked the floral and mirror decoration in the back space and I like the large windows out front more (until sun beats in for a brief part of the day).

I've been meaning to try this place for a little while now and finally got around to it, with a…read morefriend of mine. The place itself is lovely, very clean, lots of open space, and lovely staff. I got to try their classic latte with skim milk (I think, or some plant based milk) and my friend had their super fruit tea. I regret not being a bit more adventurous with my order, but it was a very solid latte nonetheless. Great portion, great art, very creamy despite it not being whole milk. My friend was a little disappointed with their fruit tea. Portion seemed to be noticeably smaller by a good bit. There was an option to sweeten it that they opted not to do and probably should have done! All in all, very nice spot in Homestead. There's even a little place to get water. Definitely recommend this coffee shop.

Service is fine, everyone is attentive enough and gets our order correct. The atmosphere is cozy but almost always crowded. The cushioned sections are fan favorites. I love to snuggle up but groups often have to merge bc there's not much space. They do have some foods but not an extensive list. This is a gem of Pittsburgh!

I really couldn't wait to try this place, and our lunch was quite good! Didn't totally line up with…read morethe hype/praise, but it was definitely good and we want to return and try other things. The unassuming old bank building is easy to find. Street parking behind it wasn't tough. There's a warning on the front door that this is a "takeout" establishment -- but there were plenty of tables. You can totally dine there! If you want alcohol, then definitely get your food to go. This is another place that has sadly gone person-free at the front with an ordering tablet. You lose so much in the lack of warm greeting, lack of assistance with ordering, etc. I don't like this tech trend! Setting that aside, we were able to order fairly easily. We had to fish around in the menu to find descriptions --- the print-outs and overhead menu had no details. The food: I had -- and would recommend -- the Flava Bowl with shrimp. That bowl was so packed, the lid almost didn't fit! Roughly 10 medium-sized sautéed shrimp over rice & peas (you get a choice of that or maduros or rice), with perfectly-cooked plantains & sautéed onions and red peppers. I had them add avocado. A good add, AND --- I sprinkled on some of their house made green hot sauce, a nice citrusy bit of heat. My husband was less high on his dish, the plantain sandwich- aka, the Jibarito with pollo ala plancha. He said it was quite dry, but it got better as he got some of the sauce (not sure what it was). It took 30 minutes to get our food, but the poor guy in the kitchen was totally alone fixing all of these orders (cooking, packing them up)! He was so apologetic; we felt bad for him. Our meal was good, though. The place clearly has a lot of heart. We'll definitely be back. Gotta try the mofongo.

During the morning and lunchtime rush, I usually order ahead on the app, though sometimes the wait time isn't super accurate. If I order in store, it's usually ready in just a few minutes.

Overall, a solid spot--I stop by pretty often.

It makes up for this by being the sweetest little location in a roundabout of a town square. The Waterfront always decorates the town square for holidays and seasons, and you can have your drink and food sitting at one of the outside tables and enjoy all of that - with your dog if you have one with you, as this whole area is incredibly dog friendly. The drinks and food here are always quickly and perfectly prepared and the staff is friendly and efficient. One of my favorite Starbucks locations.

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.

After trying this for the first time I almost have to restrain myself from stopping by there…read moreeveryday. It's SO good. My favorite items were the Oatmeal cookie and blueberry frosted donut. The cookie was soft with just a touch of frosting which compliments it well. And the donut frosting wasn't your typical lathered on frosting, it sort of hardened and gave a little crunch to the donut. What I didn't get pictures of were the chocolate chip cookie, snickerdoodle and the frosted sprinkle donut. All of which I'd get again, I just ate too fast to get photos of. You walk in and it feels like you're in someone's kitchen. Small and cozy area to order from with just the right amount of options to choose from. Maybe about a dozen cookies and pastries. Staff was super helpful in helping pick out what to get and they gave a pamphlet on the way out to see all of the pies, cookies, pastries, etc they make. Really feels like these cookies were made from your mother's kitchen, with the same passion and joy.
