I was looking for an activity to do on Friday, observed Veteran's Day. School was closed, and the…read moreveteran in our home was off of work. I randomly thought of Brushes & Beans. We called around noon, and they made us a 2:30pm reservation. We arrived a bit early so my husband and I could order coffees, and we bought a baked good for my children (ages 4 and 6). I think some might be caught off guard by the macchiato at this cafe, but they are true to Italian size and style (says the prior northern Italy resident). My husband ordered a double and had them add the bourbon caramel flavoring to it (not true to Italian style - ha!). He said he really liked it, and I enjoyed teasing him with a little "pinkies up!" call out when taking his photo. I ordered a decaf Americano (boring, I know) and also enjoyed it. Our children split a chocolate chip scone. There were a variety of muffins to choose from, croissants, and gluten-free items as well. Soon, it was time for our painting reservation. I have to say, everyone we interacted with was patient, helpful, and kind. They each seem to enjoy their job. They came around the tables often to ask if we need anything, and would bring additional paint or offer help and advice when needed. There is a nice variety of ceramics to choose from for painting as well. All in all, we very much enjoyed our visit and would certainly go back again! I was thinking it could be a fun outing for a Girl Scout troop or any kind of club or organization. You could go and paint ornaments, which are affordable and easy to do. I may have to pass that idea past our Girl Scout troop's leader. :)

I love Brushes and Beans! Usually paint your own pottery places are BYO for food and drinks, but…read morethey are half coffee shop, half pottery pain. They have a huge selection of items to paint and prices and pieces range from around $8 to up to $80. You pick your piece and paint colors and then go to work. To get the true color you need three coats, so it can tale awhile. But it is a really fun experience and the staff is really helpful. They fire your piece and you come back to pick it up in a week or two. Great for something to do with the kids, a date, time with friends or even a fun solo activity.

I really wanted to love this place because visually, it's beautiful. Everything is super aesthetic…read moreand photographs really well. The baristas were incredibly friendly, kind, engaging, and welcoming, which I genuinely appreciated. While the staff was friendly, the owner didn't come across as friendly, which changed the vibe a little. I ordered two coffees and a matcha, and unfortunately all three drinks tasted more like watered down milk, than actual coffee or matcha. The coffee-to-ice-to-milk ratio is way way off, and the flavor just didn't come through for any of the drinks. I'll also say, the sign claiming "The world's best canned Matcha" set the bar high... and it absolutely didn't deliver. That's a huge reach. I tried the croffle flight as well. Again, it looked great in pictures, but for $20, it was...meh......just okay. Not horrible, just not something I'd go out of my way for again. Overall, if you're going here for aesthetics and photo ops, this place nails it. But if you actually care about how your coffee or matcha tastes, you will likely leave disappointed. As a trusted Yelp Elite Member, this is not a business I could or would recommend.

Sell their own coffee out of Pittsburgh. And other local honeys, etc. Lots of seating outside, little inside. Don't know if in inclement weather if more seating inside. I got an Americano. It was fine for most. But americanos are meant to be strong and it was of medium strength. That's usually because the ground beans themselves are not strong, but medium. Clerk was very polite and helpful and tolerated my chatting as I was only one there. I sat outside with my small dog for a short while. I'm sure most will enjoy this spot. I can't judge baked goods as I generally don't like American baked goods as they're very, extremely sugary and lack flavor they're touted to have.

Cute coffee shop with great flavors and faith in downtown Irwin!…read more Nestled right in Irwin, White Tree Cafe & Coffeehouse has a small town vibe with big bold options! During the day, they had ample street parking and the cute patio is such a wonderful touch to enjoy a coffee on a beautiful day. We came for a light lunch and midday pick-me-up, so we chose the Cookie Butter Cold Brew, Iced Oatmilk Vanilla Latte, Grilled Chicken Bacon Ranch Panini, and a Croissant. The drinks were delicious! The Cookie Butter Cold Brew was a monthly signature drink, but I would get it as often as I can! The crumbles of cookie with the pillowy cold foam was such a refreshing coffee. The latte was perfection too. They definitely make great coffee drinks. The panini was freshly made with sous vide chicken, fresh bacon, and ample ranch dressing to dip in!! The chips were Metro Deli Kettle Chips- which is a new brand for me, but very well resembled a fresh homemade chip. The croissant was so good that we went back up to check out their other baked good options. We grabbed a Breakfast Cookie. It was a peanut butter cookie with oats and chocolate chips. The size was big enough to split and warmed up for a second... the cookie is ooey gooey!! The decor is so unique with a pin map to show where the coffee is sourced to a mini book shop to read while sitting or buy to take home. They are clearly a faith based organization with tons of great kids books based on faith and a selection of Bibles too. They also have a stock of board games ready for any patron to bust out enjoy even more fun!! The staff is so sweet. They deliver your food orders to your table and were great to talk to for recommendations and about the store!

Very cute ambience, including nice touches like a classic book collection for purchase. Not super ideal for a "working coffee" shop as local parking has a two hour max or a $10 fine and indoor seating and outlet access is fairly limited but additional outdoor seating is a major plus and a bonus for a coffee meeting or chat with friends. Keep this on your "good for a casual coffee meet up" list for sure!

It'd be a great spot for a coffee date. They had some bakery items but nothing gluten free so that was a little bit of a bummer but not something that would prevent me from coming back.

Plus, they have a full bar, so you can pair your pancakes with a Bloody Mary or mimosa if you're in the mood. The specials are always really tasty, but I do have some faves on the menu too. My personal favorites are the Greensburg Scramble the frittata your way. The only downside is the wine selection -- it's pretty underwhelming, and the sparkling wine by the glass isn't great, so I usually skip it. If they upgraded that, it would easily be a five-star experience. Service is always top-notch; we feel well taken care of every time we visit. And bonus, there's plenty of parking, which makes getting in and out super easy.

Every…read moreweekend we try to visit a new coffee shop, and on this day we were headed to Idlewild, so we made a detour to The Coffee Bean Cafe. This coffee shop is located right on Route 30 and is rather large inside. They have their coffee roaster on display, as well as a small area near the cash register with items for sale and a display case. They also have plenty of seating and the inside has a warm feel with high ceilings, colorful walls, and natural light coming in through the big front windows. One wall features coffee themed artwork, and another area has stacks of burlap coffee bean sacks labeled by origin, which gives the shop a cozy roastery atmosphere. For my coffee on this morning I ordered a large oatmeal cookie latte. My drink ended up being pretty good because the coffee flavor was present and it really did taste like an oatmeal cookie. There was plenty of oatmeal flavor combined with a lot of sweetness. My wife also enjoyed her iced coffee and liked the rich flavor. The bottom line for me is that I would come back here again in the future. Both my wife and I enjoyed our coffees, and the shop itself was a nice place to stop.
