Flyin' Hawaiian: Serrano ham, pineapple, burrata, and a poached egg on sourdough. YUM!
Melissa C.

Coffee: STRONG Service: Friendly! Ambiance: Easy-breezy Food: Tasty and plentiful Terrific breakfast spot. Bright and cheerful, laid-back vibe. Great selection of coffees (cortado, cappuccino, latte, etc.) and STRONG drip. All our breakfasts-Flyin' Hawaiian toast, I Am Kazaam (similar to a shakshuka), and straight-up old-school eggs and home fries--were delicious and ample. Sela, our server, was Johnny-on-the-spot with coffees and was a delight. After a late night of music downtown, this was just what the doctor ordered.

Hen's Hash

Went to Speckled Egg without reservation on a Sunday morning! I saw that they switched reservation systems and are now on Tock!?? I saw Tock was showing open tables and so I thought I'd hit Speckled Egg and REI next door, and sure enough, they seated me immediately as their counter spaces were mostly empty. This South Side Works location has a clean, crisp, bright ambiance vs the other location that has a very different feel because of its old fancy building vibes. The counter seats I am afraid are a real pain in the butt... some of the most uncomfortable ones I've found anywhere and they're too high for people who aren't tall. I'd suggest regular tables... Saw no wifi of their own. I had the Hen's Hash, which was great and came with a generous helping of well cooked delicious potatoes. I've previously had their version of the shakshuka (I am Kazaam), which is also nice. I appreciate it when restaurants have decent hot sauces. They had tabasco, which is a pretty low bar but they had this in-house fancy drizzle, which was great... but it wasn't hot at all. Friendly attentive server at the bar there. No issues!

I went out to breakfast with my wife. We decided on The Speckled Egg. I have to say The speckled Egg is one of the best breakfast spots I have been to in Pittsburgh. The staff were fantastic and super friendly. The waitress was super friendly and nice and did an amazing job. I had 2 eggs over easy and toast, bacon and home fries. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. I would 100% recommend this place and it is definitely a must goto breakfast spot. I will definitely be going back for more.

Very friendly and attentive staff! I did have a bit of a wait before being seated, but that's expected for a Saturday in Pittsburgh (especially one with nice weather!). :) The food was INCREDIBLE and beautiful platted! The atmosphere is cheery and bustling with people! I highly recommend The Speckled Egg South Side location! It's much bigger than the downtown location, and I love that it's connected to a coffee shop! Parking is VERY easy too (at least two parking lots nearby, and street parking)!

We were in Pittsburgh for a few hours and asked around for brunch recommendations. The Speckled Egg came up multiple times and it did not disappoint! It was easy to park and we were seated promptly. The restaurant is spacious and decorated with egg-themed pieces. You could tell from how the kitchen operated that they cared a lot about quality and freshness. We got a breakfast sando, aloha pudding, and a breakfast plate with eggs, sausage, and toast. The pudding was incredible and made me question why I don't try to make chia seed pudding more often! Really delicious toppings of chopped nuts, fresh fruit, toasted oats. The sausage was the best sausage I've ever had for brunch. I also tried one of their fresh squeezed juices and also felt that was high quality. Definitely try this place out!

Stopped at The Speckled Egg In SSW for brunch before the Steelers game. I would recommend reservations on the weekends, especially flea market days or other SSW event days. I heard great things about their cocktails, but was disappointed in the pumpkin spice espresso martini, something was off and tasted a bit sour. Other than that, everything was excellent and my grilled cheese was to die for! I have always had a great meal here.

Patty's Melt
Rachel W.

The BEST!! This is my favorite brunch spot in Pittsburgh. It never disappoints. Everything is always delicious, the cocktails are beautiful, and the service is so friendly. My favorite order is either the breakfast sandwich or the pattys melt. I think the Patty's melt is literally the best thing they make. Seriously everyone needs to try!!!

Stopped by for brunch earlier today at the southside location. Nice restaurant n lovely ambience and friendly staff. We did not make reservations n couldn't get a table so sat by the counters in front of kitchen which was not bad. Had the hens hash w sunny side up tuna melt n pattys melt. Generous portions. The hens hash was v good n flavorful w mushrooms, Brussels sprout n sweet potato. Tuna melt tasted good n the portions were way generous. And so was the patty melt. Thank you for a great brunch. My go to place next time I'm in south side flats.

I enjoy this spot a lot. It's always a great experience and the food is so good. Lots of indoor seating and there is also outdoor seating available. The server was good.

The Speckled Egg is a local brunch restaurant that has two locations--this one in the South Side and another one in downtown. The menu lists foods such as quiches, toasts, pancakes, salads, and sandwiches. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are available. My husband and I recently ate breakfast at this restaurant. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Orange juice - 4.5 stars - This orange juice tasted very fresh and contained some pulp. Chai latte - 5 stars - This chai latte had a delicious spicy flavor. Quiche for a Cause - 5 stars - My husband ate this quiche. It contained ham and potatoes. On the side was a salad, and my husband said that he really liked the in-house vinaigrette dressing. Please note that the ingredients are seasonal. Brown-Butter French Toast - 4.5 stars - Slices of French toast were topped with very sweet strawberry-cardamom jam, powdered sugar, maple syrup, and butter. Millennial Toast with Crab - 5 stars - This toast was topped with avocado and a generous amount of crab meat.

Outstanding breakfast/brunch/lunch spot. Really good food. Super friendly service. Nice, quiet part of the city

The Rachel Ray

Good breakfast the other morning - popped in during the handmade market. We easily got seats at the pretty bar. The service there was great - very attentive. My husband got the Rachel Ray - not sure why the name, but it's basically a Reuben w/ Turkey. He got it on marble rye. He wasn't super impressed, but it was tasty. I got the breakfast sando--- the 2 "broke yolks" weren't broke, but I like em runny. I added avocado. That was a nice addition, otherwise the sammie's a little low on flavor. Overall, though, it was breakfast. The vibe is a nice hipster chic. We didn't get coffee - but it seemed popular. We'll be back.

This is such a cute brunch spot with lots of items on the menu, so if you like a variety then this is the place to go!! They also have a bar area with lots of alcoholic bevs as well. Their lox and loaded bagel was one of the best lox bagels I've had! It's def ez to make at home but I wanted to treat myself with a fancier version of it and this spot rlly hit it well. My friend got their grilled chicken biscuit and the chicken was super tender and crunchy. We came during a busy Sunday, but we got seated within 10 minutes and our server was super attentive and making sure we were satisfied with our food and service!

"What do you mean we can have a bar crawl in one building?" My friends ask, as I present the option…read moreof going to the Hazelwood Brew House. "It's three breweries having both indoor and outdoor spaces," I reply. The brew house is a multi-story brewery complex. At the base there's a beer garden, the third floor three indoor breweries, and an open rooftop. Get a beer anywhere and travel with it throughout the facility. There are stairs and elevators! The acoustics are a bit loud in the indoor space. There is a kitchen. We enjoyed being able to move around and the brewery variety enabled something for everyone. It was my first visit and the employees were very patient and explained the concept to us. Easy parking in the lot. I'm glad we made the trip and I would be happy to go back!

We stopped by on a whim last Friday night after volunteering in the area at Community Kitchen…read morePittsburgh. There's a parking lot but we just walked over. You walked in and can either take the stairs or elevator up to the third floor. There's a couple of couches, a water fountain, and some memorabilia on the ground floor. The second is off limits. The taproom is pretty big and we didn't sit outside since it was cold but there's a rooftop deck as well. There's a food counter with a small menu and two open bars from different breweries. I like that they have smaller pours that are reasonably priced. I'm a dark beer lover and they had a few options for me. We sat there at the bar and closed down the place. This place is a little out of the way but I would come back!
