Met a friend here to chat about an upcoming project, and I have to say--what a great suggestion…read more This local coffee shop is outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how much larger it is on the inside than it looks from the outside--plenty of space to sit, relax, or get some work done. I ordered a latte, and it was absolutely amazing--smooth, rich, and perfectly crafted. They also offer small bites and food options, making it a great spot for more than just coffee. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a vibe that makes you want to stay a while. The only downside? Parking. It's all street parking, and if you drive a truck the size of mine, finding a spot can be a bit of a challenge. But honestly, it's worth the extra effort. This place is a Troy Hill gem and I'll definitely be back.

Ordered a vanilla latte and a grilled cheese here. Latte was average and came quickly…read more The grilled cheese though was a different story. It took 25 mins (and I mean actually 25 mins)! I watched groups behind me get their build your own sandwiches before me. At one point, someone came up to me and said she was going to check on my order but never came back. After waiting 25 mins, the grilled cheese looked like the picture. Cheese sliding out and bread barely holding together. I expected a lot more after waiting 25 mins. Cute space but the kitchen needs to get it together!

I recently tried Pair for the first time, and I can't wait to come back! It is Downtown, and as…read moresomeone who doesn't regularly go Downtown, it can be a bit of an adventure. But trust me, it was well worth it. After finding street parking not far from Point Park University, I walked to the storefront right off Blvd of the Allies. The shop is clean, bright, and fun! They have a cute green wall perfect for photos. For seating options, there are a few small tables and a comfy chairs. Overall, though, not a huge place. I tried the Sweet Potato Latte, because I saw it on their Instagram. And it did not disappoint! The texture was an adjustment for the first few seconds, but after that, I couldn't put it down. You can get it with whole milk or oat milk; I hope almond milk is a future option. I recently learned that you can purchase bottles of their syrups...I'm just saying! The bacon, egg, and cheese on croissant is perfect. They use real, thick bacon and lots of it. I got my husband the Arnold Palmer, and he loved it. Above all else, the service was warm and welcoming. Both persons working were helpful and friendly. One asked me what brought me in, and I told her about what I saw on the Instagram account. If for nothing else, I'll be back for another Sweet Potato Latte!

PAIR Charcuterie is a local business that offers catered charcuterie boards, breakfast and lunch…read morefoods, and charcuterie workshops. I first encountered PAIR's charcuterie at a Yelp Elite event. I really enjoyed their cheeses, meats, vegetables, and fruits. Later, my husband and I ate breakfast here. It was the weekend, and they had just opened for the day. Their television menus were not on, but some small signs listed some menu items, and a friendly employee explained the breakfast options. Some indoor seating was available. My husband and I ate a fresh fruit cup, a large hot creme-brûlée chai with oat milk, and a bacon-egg-cheese sandwich. They tasted very good. I appreciated that the employee checked in with us to ask if everything was OK.

Cute little coffee shop and cafe tucked on the corner of the street. They had adorable decor and…read morethey make it clear it is an inclusive safe space for everyone. Staff was nice and friendly. They had a free plant section which I loved. There were about 4 small tables inside so don't expect a ton of seating. The prices were super reasonable - I got a peppermint mocha with oat milk and a pumpkin spice latte with oat milk. Coffee was great and the sweetness was perfect - not overall sweet. I wish they had more food selection but it was still good. There is not a fixed menu and they rotate what they make I believe. We all had a sourdough breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese which they heat up for you. All of their food is displayed in the cases. They had pepperoni rolls, muffins, croissants, scones, etc.

I was out of coffee beans this morning so I decided to pop over to The Garden Cafe! My drink was…read moredelicious! I got a small caramel latte and it tastes like I'm drinking a Werthers caramel. I believe that The Garden Cafe uses la prima beans which are one of my favorite local roasters. I ended up getting my coffee to go, but I love that there is a lot of local influence within the coffee shop. There are advertisements for local events, local art for sale, and a little library. The fridge in the back is open for anyone who is facing food insecurity too. Overall, the inside space of The Garden Cafe is cozy and makes me want to read a book there sometime. Service was fast and the baristas really connect with the locals.

Community staple! I love getting to stop in here when I'm in the neighborhood…read more Their matcha is not presweetened which is superb! Thank you for that. Service is always quick and friendly. The food comes up quick and is served hot! The Ashley's breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel really hit the spot! I love all the local art around the shop and little boutique items that are constantly in rotation. My only complaint about this spot is if you're coming to work the WiFi either 1) never works or can't be found so plan to use a hot spot and 2) they have VERY minimal seating options with an outlet. Like many coffee shops today, they don't encourage "campers" or people who plan to sit for hours for work.

I am extremely picky about the oat milk I keep and use in my home and this was the first coffee shop I have ever been to that vocalized and prioritizes offering dairy free options that isn't full of junk ingredients. Their matcha is sweetened with honey. I usually opt out of all sweeteners but decided to go for it here. It was great! A little too sweet but I didn't feel so bad knowing it was local honey and not refined sugary syrups. I grabbed a regular latte - no sweeteners for a friend and she raved about it! I was hoping to grab some local microgreens they advertise on their website but I didn't see any in the case. They did have a few salads for a grab and go option that I thought was nice for a quick lunch on the road. I would definitely be back when in the area again!

They always make sure to get my toddler son the best juices and donuts. The orange juice has been my favorite so far, so good. They also have some really good pastries available.

So I definitely plan to come back here again to try the other cheesecake smoothie flavors. I ended…read moreup getting the raspberry cheesecake smoothie and I loved it so much. It was such a unique concept because I've never had cheesecake in a smoothie like that before. There were a lot of seeds in it but honestly I don't even mind that. I'm thinking next time I'll get either the strawberry cheesecake or the blueberry cheesecake to see how those compare. My friend got the protein coffee and even though it tasted a little more like whey than coffee it was still a nice treat. They also have protein brownies in the refrigerator that looked really interesting and there are several games you can play out near the tables which is a fun touch. The ice cream flavors are pretty basic but there are a ton of options when it comes to milkshakes and smoothies so there's definitely something for everyone. Service is fast and friendly, the location is convenient, and there's also a really nice trail at Crafton Park nearby where you can walk and enjoy your smoothie in the sun afterward. Definitely worth a visit!

The service is always warm, and while the ambiance is more so grab and go, there are seating options with outlets nearby if you wanna stick around. The only reason i cant give this place more stars, (even though i really want to) is the lack of flavor in their drinks. Ive had a couple of their smoothies and love them, but wish they were a little more fruit/flavor heavy, as the powder taste is quite upfront. Im not trying to say make them unhealthy by adding sugar, they could just use a little more fruit/ flavor. Obviously you're gonna taste some powder, because they are protein smoothies, but the flavor could use a little more balance. Besides the flavor balance, the smoothies are good, i haven't gotten one thats bad, and i definitely recommend coming here. The only thing I've been disappointed by was their Matcha & boba (No bueno).
