I stopped by here a couple of Sundays ago with my wife and our twins for our morning coffee. Every…read moreweekend we try to hit up a new local coffee shop, and on this morning we decided to go to Aroma Joe's. We happened to be in Monroeville picking up a Christmas gift when I fired up Yelp and noticed there was an Aroma Joe's nearby. While we had not been to this specific location, we have visited the one in Greensburg a couple of times, so we had a pretty good idea of what to expect. This Aroma Joe's location only offers a drive thru and a walk up window. Since it was cold on the day we were there, we chose the drive thru. After looking over the menu, I decided on a hot Paris Toast latte, while my wife went with an iced peppermint latte. The menu describes the Paris Toast latte as having flavors of maple, brown sugar cinnamon, and shortbread. From the time we ordered until we received our drinks took about five minutes, so the staff here was definitely efficient. My coffee ended up being good. The flavorings came through nicely without hiding the coffee itself. The espresso also had a strong flavor, although it did leave my mouth feeling a bit dry for whatever reason. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my wife and I enjoyed our coffees, so why not.

Great authentic Italian cuisine with fresh ingredients. Nice Italian style decor with a family friendly atmosphere. The service is always on point, fast and friendly servers. Our go to appetizers are usually the homemade meatballs with ricotta cheese and crab stuffed hot peppers, both are delicious! I haven't found something I don't like here. All the chicken dishes are great including the Parm and Marsala are my go to dishes. A nice selection of seafood and veal as well. I've had catering from here and the chicken and beef dishes were great. The meal included mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. I especially love to support small family owned businesses. Highly recommended! The only problem I usually have here is what to order! Hahaha! Salute

12/6/25 (Saturday evening): We liked that we found an Italian restaurant in the area that was…read moreopened late. We were greeted and seated quickly, then waited about 5 minutes before our server came. She was very professional and pleasant. After one bite of the Chicken Marsala I had ordered, I just couldn't bring myself to eat any more of it. The gravy was awful. There's just no way to describe it. Our server kindly suggested alternate meals. I chose Chicken Parmesan without cheese. It was delicious. That red sauce was scrumptious, though a tad on the sweet side. My husband ordered the Eggplant Parmesan and thought it was mediocre. (He judges restaurants by this meal.) Then he ordered the Chocolate Bavarian cake. He thought it was light and tasty. Not too sweet at all. Yummy. The Christmas music playing was wonderful to listen to but played too loudly. We prefer the music be in the background so we may have conversations. I had a headache until I left the restaurant. I absolutely loved how they decorated for Christmas throughout the whole restaurant! Their service is not fast, so this is not a place for a quick meal.

Things like that make you want to come back more - GREAT customer service and hospitality We ordered four orders of Million Dollar Bacon as an appetizer and it was a hack as everyone could then choose the bacon of their choice - do you prefer crispy or chewy? We also tried their new Barbacoa bowl! It was weird to not have a base- probably better described as a normal breakfast plate - but still delightful - fresh avocado, juicy lime wedges, barbacoa with a nice amount of spice, and a very fresh pico.

This locally owned and operated spot is located in the River Town Shopping Center at 148 Allegheny River Boulevard, Freedom Square Diner is a staple for locals in Verona, and the whole area. They opened in 2013, expanding from its original Cranberry Township location, and has since carved out a niche by focusing on breakfast and lunch with a warm, community-centered approach that works. The atmosphere is inviting and relaxed and the cozy coffee counter near the entrance adds to the charm. The place is busy but still friendly and familiar, I mean I love a diner vibe ! The menu is extensive and IMO breakfast is the star of the show, with standout items like the Create Your Own Omelette, the Hungryman Breakfast off a nice spread of eggs, bacon, pancakes, and home fries, that's what Matt O. had and he's now a fan. I had the Nutella French Toast that was like a homage to Elvis with bananas, strawberries and lots of sweet goodness, it was special! I also got a side of sausage gravy and biscuit to share, and these Yinzers actually nailed this Southern favorite. For lunch, the Whale of a Fish Sandwich is a big favorite here, it's hand-breaded haddock on a hoagie roll with tartar sauce and fries. Other popular dishes include the Hot Roast Beef Sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy, the Steak Salad with garlic-marinated filet, and the Mushroom Swiss Burger with crispy fries. They even have Homemade clam chowder, I will definitely scope that out on my next visit. The diner has wheelchair-accessible entrances, outdoor dining, takeout, and offers a veterans discount, gotta love it! Bottom line: Whether you're craving a hearty breakfast, a nostalgic lunch, or just a good cup of coffee in a welcoming setting, Freedom Square Diner delivers. Good food, great service in a welcoming environment, it's highly recommended!!! Hours: Monday through Saturday from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and Sunday from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

As always, this is a staple for my first stop while home visiting. The parking was rough and I sure hope something gets figured out but if I have to drive around for 20 min until someone moves, I'll do it! Especially for what's inside. I picked up 2 cold brews for my bff, banana pudding for my pops and for me a cookie butter pudding (I think) for myself. To top it off I picked up a banana smores iced latte. No wonder this place is a diamond in the rough. I have never and I mean never had anything bad here. And it def put a smile on my face that the owner knew who I was and knows my love for her business. Please do yourself a favor and go here. Take a day drive and try it out.

Maybe I went at an off time, it was about 2:00, but the service was horrible, as was the ambiance . I was sitting at the last booth, the farthest from the kitchen. I was all the way at the other end of the dining room, and the server was using her "outside" voice to talk with the kitchen the entire time. I could hear every word she said. She didn't shut up for like a half hour. I finally put my AirPods in to drown her out. When it was time for the check, she was way too busy talking to check on me. I had to go up to her to ask for the check. Good sandwich, crappy service.
