    Very busy coffee shop in the heart of downtown Carnegie. Had a lot of staff working to keep the line moving and prepare all the drinks and food. The coffee was good but the standout was the croissant breakfast sandwich. Had the spicy sausage that wasn't too spicy but had great flavor on a really soft croissant. The sugar rush donut was interesting too - a different kind of chewy.

    This place is a local gem to me! I'm obsessed with their matcha. Their coffee is a bit bitter to me, but their breakfast sandwiches and baked goods NEVER miss. I love the seasonal flavor combinations they suggest and how the furniture is all mismatched. I spent a lot of time studying here before I moved nearby and am constantly bringing visitors here.

    Awesome café restaurant in beautiful historical post office. Adorable small business district lots of little shops within blocks

    Turkey BLT, Corn Chowder, Lucky Charms Latte

    Fast, friendly service. Good recommendation for sandwich. The Turkey Club was great. The Lucky Charms Latte did not live up to its competition albeit several hundred miles away. No deduction due to distance. Cute spot in an old bank or post office. The truck is to get a spot upstairs.

    Amazing as always! Stopped in to meet some friends for lunch. The stuffed pepper soup was incredible and I had the peach iced tea which was refreshing post-workout. Service is always quick and super helpful.

    I drove here on the way to the race track as I wanted a good coffee. I parked and walked in. Early on a Saturday morning. I was greeted quickly and the line was short. Placed my order and got a blueberry scone as well. My latte was oh so tasty and the scone was still warm out of the oven it was that fresh. I did drink the coffee while driving but the scone had to wait about 40 minutes but it tasted amazing as well. I highly recommend this location. I wish I lived near by so I could come more often. More than likely I will be back before I leave town. Excellent service and great coffee drinks.

    I always have a nice time when I stop in. They had valentines seasonal lattes advertised. I went with their basic breakfast sandwich and I switched out the bacon for sausage and got a latte. The ambience is always full of kind people in plenty of seating. Can't wait for my next visit.

    The set up here is really cool. I also enjoyed the funky vibe and the food was good. The only issue I had was I didn't love my coffee - but I'm not a huge coffee person anyone so wasn't that big of a deal. I think this would be a perfect spot to work one morning although we went on a weekend so it was pretty busy.

    Coffee was very good! We enjoyed two lattes and two breakfast sandwiches. The seating in here is extensive! You could have a date, study session, friend or book club meet up. There is plenty of space. Even while busy everything was served quickly!

    Carnegie Coffee was a delightful surprise! As soon as you walked in, it was easy to see this was more than a coffee shop! It is a true hub in the community... People were meeting, conversing and connecting. It was quite lively! There were also plenty of spaces though for people to work too if they wanted something a little quieter. The coffee was very good - a we tried both a solid cappuccino and refreshing cold brew. The breakfast sandwiches were average, but would 100% return! Loved the mixed decor - a very comfortable and warm space!

    Recommend if you're in the area. The vibes are amazing. It's super cute. It does get a little overwhelming while busy which is something to note if you don't like busy/crowed places. The food was delicious!!! Coffee was good. It's a little pricey but honestly what isn't at this point. I will be going back again and again.

    Wonky internet hang, coffee spot yes! Music man gets all the credit, and my long awaited reboot.

We didn't, but somehow got lucky snagging seats at the bar... which honestly turned out to be a perfect spot to eat too! The beet salad was SO good I could've easily ordered a second without hesitation. I had a self-proclaimed Reuben connoisseur with me, and he declared it the best Reuben he's ever had (second only to his own, of course ). It's not your typical version either--no standard Thousand Island overload. The corned beef was perfectly peppered and packed with flavor, and even the bread stood out. Fish tacos? Absolutely a yes. Fresh, flavorful, and just done right. We split sides--tater tots for one dish and the homemade chips for the other. Always go for the homemade chips here. WOW! They had this subtle sweetness that made them seriously addictive. Friendly service, great atmosphere, and food that lives up to the hype. Totally worth it! One quick heads up: there's a 3% fee if you use a credit card, so plan accordingly.

What an improvement over the tiny little order-at-the-counter spot with the free wine and rickety folding chairs! The food was good before, and it's still good, but the place is now a full service, upstairs-downstairs cozy spot. We had fried pickles, a sunshine salad (as a side salad), and a couple of hot dogs--the bacon dog and the Picklesburgh dog. Pickles were a tiny bit greasy but crunchy and substantial. The side salad was absolutely delicious with lots of textures and crunch, both acidic and a little sweet all at the same time. I would order it as a dinner salad for sure. I didn't try the bacon dog, but my husband liked it. The Picklesburgh dog was a delicious mess--truly, it was so messy--but it was crunchy and salty and briny, and totally worth ordering next time I'm in the mood for a dog. I shouldn't have waited so long to go back to Brick and Mortar; I'm glad we finally checked it out.

I had to stop into Fredo's after seeing photos from my daughter who had just spent two weeks in Bosnia. The interior of Fredo's is like stepping into a small shop you'd find in Bosnia. The yellow walls are welcoming, and cozy. There's a small variety of snacks, and beverages on one side of the shop, and a large counter where you'd place your order. There are a few tables for dining in, but I chose to take my order home. I ordered a small Cevapi and Sirnica, plus picked up some Croatian chocolate for dessert. The Cevapi were delicious skinless beef and veal sausages, that were nicely savory and well browned. A cup of chopped onions, and what I think was a yogurt sauce came with my Cevapi which added more flavor and an overall goodness to the Cevapi. A bread similar to a pita made eating Cevapi easy, and filling. The Sirnica was equally delicious. A wonderful mix of flaky, chewy phyllo pastry, and cheese baked inside the pastry. It definitely hit the spot with a nice balance of a light pastry and mild cheese. I ate the leftover half cold, and it was just as good! The lady at the counter was friendly, and patient with me. The menu is truly a deli menu full of sandwiches, salads, and appetizers. If you're wanting to go for the House Specials, you won't be disappointed!

They have a couple of tables inside for dining and we chose the one closest to the coffee bar. The one employee there took our order and made our food right next to us at the counter/kitchen set up located behind the register. We did see several takeout orders get picked up while we were there. My mom had the gyro salad and I ordered an Italian with no onions or dressing. My mom was disappointed that the "greens" were actually chopped romaine and/or iceberg. The gyro meat was flavorful and had a nice crisp to the outside and the homemade dressing was delicious. The Italian was also decent. I'm picky when it comes to hoagie rolls and this baguette was soft and fresh. I typically prefer more of a crisp exterior, but this was fine. The meat and toppings were fresh and the sandwich was served with a small bag of Lay's on the side. Overall, we had a nice experience dining in the small deli, but with so many options in the Pittsburgh area, I can't say we were wowed enough to be repeat customers.
