    Egg bites and seasonal latte
    Liv B.

    I've been here a few times because it's close to work for me and it always does the trick. Their espresso is a little bitter to me and though I like the flavor combinations, their coffee is a bit expensive. The egg bites are fabulous though - like the best I've ever had. The texture made them the best. It's a great environment to do work in. Service can be on the slower side.

    Such good coffee! I really enjoyed my experience here! Staff our kind! The brown sugar latte was so good! One of my fav spots I've been to in Pittsburgh so far! They also make all their syrups homemade! They have some breakfast sandwiches as well. Lots of seating options including a couch! So cute inside I loved all the paintings and art on the wall as well as the brick wall. Definitely worth checking out or making the drive over there!

    Super friendly staff, great working and cozy space, and delicious coffee and treats! Loved the cafe seating area, tons of space and perfect for chatting or working, with plenty of outlets and WiFi too. The staff was so nice and were friendly and engaging with every person, plus they made a mean latte and coffee too! I wish they still had the fall special candied yam syrup, but their other ones are also delicious. The hash brown egg and cheese sandwhich was amazing, crispy and warm with a nice sauce too, definitely would get again. So excited to come back again!

    Arabica Robusta Coffee House - Homestead's New Coffee Shop! They have crafted their very own custom blend -- perfectly named The Homestead Blend! Owned and operated by the sweetest people, this cozy spot also features baked goods from a local baker and delicious breakfast sandwiches from Pittsburgh Sandwich Society! I tried their Candied Yam Latte (their fall special) -- I'll admit, I was skeptical at first, but it's so good! Sweet, spiced, and totally unique. Also had the Super Fruit Tea -- hibiscus, elderberry, cranberry, blueberry, and black currant loose leaf tea, steeped on-site and served over ice with dried raspberries. It's caffeine-free, refreshing, and absolutely delicious.

    First time here and it was amazing. Perfect hole in the wall coffee shop with an adorable aesthetic and amazing coffee and service. I had the cold brew with vanilla and lavender!

    I live in Munhall and had been driving 20 minutes to the Arlington neighborhood to satisfy my coffee shop craving (love you, Hilltop Coffee!), but now there is a coffee shop in the next neighborhood over (Homestead). Even better, I can take the bus and get dropped off at their door in less than 15 minutes. Outside there are tables and chair while the weather is nice. Inside, the decor is industrial chic (think unfinished brick wall, concrete floor, wooden plank benches and tables, metal chairs and stools) meets botanical comfort (plants in hanging pots, colorful prints, and a comfy couch). The music is a variety of pop and R&B. I came to work for several hours spanning second breakfast and lunch, starting with a hot chai latte with oat milk and a couple of apple dumplings (hot or cold). Next time I will dress up the chai latte with a sweetener or flavored syrup. For lunch I have to decide between a chicken pesto wrap (can be hot or cold) and a veggie panini. Wifi is free. There are large, wheelchair-accessible restrooms (1 gender neutral, 1 each male and female) in the back half of the building, which they are going to turn into an event space. The owners Gregory and Hannah are friendly and want to feed you good food and drink--come support a local business! #lifehappenscoffeehelps

    I stopped by here a couple of Sundays ago with my family for our morning coffee. Every weekend we try to hit up a new local coffee shop, and on this morning it happened to be Arabica Robusta Coffee House. This coffee shop is located in Homestead right on East 8th Avenue, and the inside is massive. The space features exposed brick throughout with plenty of seating, including a large number of tables and a sofa as well. Near the counter where you order, they had several baked goods displayed under cloches, along with a small area filled with a variety of cacti. For my coffee this morning, I went with a brown sugar latte while my wife chose a mocha. My son picked a banana, which was surprisingly free, and my daughter went with an apple danish. During the entire time we were there, we were the only people in the shop, and the two employees working were incredibly friendly. My coffee ended up tasting really good. The brown sugar added some sweetness while still allowing the coffee to shine through. It was deep and rich, and honestly had more coffee flavor than most lattes I have had in a while. My wife also enjoyed her coffee, and my twins were happy with what they ordered. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My family enjoyed everything about this place, from the look of the space to the friendly staff, and especially the coffee.

    I went to Arabica a week after they first opened, and it has been in my regular coffee rotation ever since! They use their own signature blend of Commonplace Coffee Beans. Every latte is so delicious! They have house-made syrups. They serve PGH Sandwich Society breakfast sandwiches. The space is huge and cozy; it's the perfect place to work or meet up with friends. Co-owner Hannah is so nice, and so is everyone else who works there! It has been amazing to see their growth from the first week until now.

    So happy this place opened up on the main drag in Homestead. Stopped in finally and got a Cappuccino. It was delicious and the vibe of the space is excellent too. Love the Baron Batch painted couch. Lots of tables and seating to get some work done or just hang out.

    What a great addition to the neighborhood! This is a trendy new cafe serving up some really good coffee. The service was fantastic! I can't wait to go back and try more :)

    I was warmly welcomed as soon as I walked in. The atmosphere is beautifully decorated, and the vibe is perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. My drink was delicious--especially the oat milk latte. The corner couch was very stylish and extremely comfortable. This is a perfect spot to study, work, or simply enjoy a good coffee. Hanna was very welcoming and kind. I will definitely recommend this place!

    It's an aesthetically pleasing cafe with really great coffee but the service is a bit slow and when I went to the choice of food items was limited. Overall a good cafe to stop by for a quick coffee.

We the played the giant connect four game but out of the two available, one was broken and would just hold the chips in place. After the group got out of the room, it took a while for the staff to clean the room but then we were able to use it. The room's technology wasn't great - when you were using the tablet to pick another song, the screen with the lyrics would sometimes freeze. Additionally, there were two mics but most of the time the one didn't work and the other one required that you stand in certain spots in the room. It was only $15 per hour to use the room but I'm not sure I would come back and use it.

My favorite dish so far is the Caesar omelette which comes with smoked salmon and some nice salad plus toast. The omelette is big, salad too, though the toast felt a little light. My wife got the Tolstoy bowl, which came with two poached eggs, some peppers, and a heaping pile of potatoes. Good but a bit skewed toward potatoes. My mom got one of their egg sandwiches, which seemed very standard (their sandwiches all come with a good side salad).

On the first visit, I did the soup/salad bar, and this time around I decided to try something from the menu! That's where everything went downhill. As a table, we ordered a mushroom burger w/ cream of broccoli soup, chicken penne pasta with fruit, and the chicken tenders meal w/ fries (and banana and wet wipes, since the kids' menu advertised those as complimentary). You already know I had a bad time, so here we go: - soup tasted like broccoli in milk - fruit plate was dirty - wait time for entrees felt like forever, I didn't time it but it was well over 20 minutes and I was under the impression this was a quick diner-style situation (some of it wasn't even hot when it came out!) - banana didn't come out with meal so I asked, and was given so much attitude! - asked for wet wipes 3x and they never came We go to Costco weekly so I've been looking for some decent lunch spots in the area, and I was so let down by this meal! Our host and other servers were so friendly, but our specific server had a cloud over her that day and unfortunately the mood crept on over to our table. Unfortunately it feels like soup and salad is the way to go here, and I'm not about to go out of my way for this particular soup/salad bar.

Toppings include whipped cream, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, bananas, Nutella, Speculoos, Belgian chocolate, caramel, dark chocolate shell, and the business's small-batch flavors of ice creams. During my recent visit, an employee promptly and politely served me. I ordered one Ghent waffle for $6.31 plus tax and tip. The employee made the waffle fresh in a reasonable time. Some indoor tables and chairs were available, so I sat down to eat. My Ghent waffle was nicely chewy and was topped with delicious Speculoos/Biscoff shortbread spread and slices of bananas.
