For a community as big as Monroeville, we really lack local/non chain coffee houses. (yes I know…read morethis is in Pitcarin).. This used to be called Vault because of being in an old bank, but they embraced their veteran owned status and rebranded. The decor is fun and not over the top and they have comfortable seating. Brave Bean is. great shop right on Broadway (Pitcarin's main street). They have a convenient drive through and there is also street parking. They have. fairly standard coffee shop menu plus they always have fun seasonal specials. Yes things like peppermint mocha and pumpkin spice latte, but also firecracker latte for patriotic holidays. They have a nice selection of pastries and sandwiches as well. They taste fresh and are a nice size. Staff is friendly, informative and attentive. They are great at helping you make decisions if you are stuck on what to get or might not be a regular coffee drinker. A real gem of a place I am happy to have nearby.

A nice coffee spot on the main drag in Pitcairn. Stopped in to grab a latte and check the place…read moreout - glad I did. The barista did a nice job on my drink, invited me to look around and check out the vault (former bank), and I got to talk with one of the co-owners Rob for a bit. I bought a couple bags of their beans to try. The place is inviting and has some good stuff going for it. I'll definately be swinging back by! Well done!

I give them 5 stars for their reuben sandwich. I went at lunchtime to get a good sandwich and was…read morenot disappointed. Sat at the bar and waited as my reuben was prepared exactly as I had requested it. Went up and ate it in the sunshine at Homestead cemetery. Very tasty and as I said it couldn't have been fresher.

Located on Mosside Boulevard across from Dollar General. Great tasting coffee at reasonable prices…read more This store has a drive thru and a walk up window to order. There is a small outdoor patio in front of the store. This location was previously a small car wash so space is limited. Their menu is mostly coffee and drinks but they're a couple breakfast sandwiches that are premade and bagels and doughnuts are also available. Prices are reasonable. Staff is always nice and friendly. Service is always quick and easy. I definitely will return again soon!

Really lovely cafe with great drinks and a nice vibe!…read more All their drinks are so fun, but their seasonal lattes are always creative and delicious, especially loved the baklava latte that had great pistachio flavor and a beautiful blue cold foam too. They also have pastries and other food options from local spots that are solid, and I really like the seating area. It's small but really cozy, service was also fast. My only complaint is the pricing ($8+), but the quality is really good so I'll definitely will be back to try more of their special!

I would not say Moonbeam Cafe is necessarily the best cafe to go to on a Saturday mid-morning for a…read more"quick coffee" but it's the place to go for a good coffee. The baristas were hustling though and worked effectively to get to all customers within an appropriate amount of time. I had one of their specialty Valentine's Day drinks while my boyfriend had the Tahini Latte. Both were Neither were too sweet. They know the meaning of light ice for sure. The espresso was smooth in both but not too overpowering. Both drinks really hit the spot and made a beautiful Saturday even lovelier.

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.

Their seasonal specials and homemade syrups were delicious, really loved the coconut one but all of them sound great.

We tried two drinks from their Fall menu - the iced pumpkin chai latte was delightful! Super quick and friendly service as well. Only a few minutes away from the Waterworks.

Nice happy greeting when arriving with chill patrons hanging out. I hung out a bit on this visit…read more Started with cappuccino and Nancy B's cookie. Then a breakfast sandwich and later a chai latte. All were good, the coffee and breakfast sandwich are excellent. Hanna and crew are so welcoming. Always try to visit when I am in the area; these are the businesses to support. Guest and others mentioned how they liked the floral and mirror decoration in the back space and I like the large windows out front more (until sun beats in for a brief part of the day).

I've been meaning to try this place for a little while now and finally got around to it, with a…read morefriend of mine. The place itself is lovely, very clean, lots of open space, and lovely staff. I got to try their classic latte with skim milk (I think, or some plant based milk) and my friend had their super fruit tea. I regret not being a bit more adventurous with my order, but it was a very solid latte nonetheless. Great portion, great art, very creamy despite it not being whole milk. My friend was a little disappointed with their fruit tea. Portion seemed to be noticeably smaller by a good bit. There was an option to sweeten it that they opted not to do and probably should have done! All in all, very nice spot in Homestead. There's even a little place to get water. Definitely recommend this coffee shop.

One of the biggest issue with this location is location. It is really hard to get intimate and…read moreout of, especially if the drive through line is long and the parking lot is small. It also always seems to have issues. one time I visited, they couldn't make any hot drinks. another time, they could only take cash. Although even with seemingly regular issues, the staff rolled with the punches , did their best and are always friendly and courteous to customers. The inside is typical Starbucks decor and the space itself is long and narrow.

Located in Murrysville in the Blue Spruce Shoppes. Nice clean store. Helpful and friendly service…read more Usually a quick order through the Starbucks app which is highly recommended to receive 2x the rewards as opposed to using cash or card in the store. Gift cards are easy to load to your account to still receive reward perks. In addition a free beverage for you on your birthday. Yaay! Love the sessional drinks, especially the PSL and Caramel Praline. The food is convenient and consistent. I usually order the Bacon Gouda & Egg Sandwich. The Double Smoked Bacon Cheddar & Egg Sandwich is also another tasty breakfast option. Thankfully there is a drive thru because parking is limited and can be frustrating getting in and out of the plaza. Overall a good Starbucks.

They have so much selection, it's overwhelming! I have been on a hunt for the best tiramisu in…read morePittsburgh and I read that their variation was very good so I had to try it. It is called a Tony misu, and I would argue It is like a cake...So ditch the idea of ladyfingers overall. It didn't have much coffee flavor at all, the frosting/cream or whatever it was wasn't bad. I wouldnt come here just for this but I'd eat it again if it was in front of me. I'm honestly disappointed, when you call yourself an Italian pastry shop but can't make classic tiramisu. Maybe that's just me, but I think that's all of Pittsburgh. Service here was great, parking was easy.

Cute spot! Very busy on a weekday morning. I was impressed with their selection of vegan pastries!…read moreMy favorite was the lemon poppyseed muffin -- full of flavor and moist. The coffee cake muffin and cinnamon bun were also good. My iced matcha latte left a lot to be desired. It didn't have a very pronounced matcha flavor, just kind of chalky. It is not sweetened at all, so if that's your thing, be sure to ask for it.

Great little coffee shop in Edgewood, just east of Pittsburgh. Some parking available out front…read more Fairly small interior space with limited seating. They have a nice variety of coffee drinks, along with a daily selection of baked goods from different local bakeries/restaurants. Also had soups and sandwiches available for grab and go. I had a cortado and a lemon poppy scone, both excellent. I'd also note that they had a space set up where they had information available related to community resources and some local community groups. Very evident that they care about their neighbors and the community at large. Ignore the reviews from random out of towners who have a political axe to grind and have never been to Pittsburgh or visited this business. Great spot, I will be back when I'm in the neighborhood!
