WOAH....too crowded on a Saturday about 11am ...there is a pandemic upon the land in case this place forgot line of people not social distancing heck some not even wearing a mask correctly. This place packed just after new order of restaurants only be allowed take out or outdoor dining it is a bakery with food so anyway we came because we saw (on their social media account)the cutest coffee being offered gingerbread latte with a tiny gingerbread house on the cup. we figured it is the holiday season lets take the 25 minute drive to Sewickley (if you have not been" its like a town from a Hallmark movie" says Sam. I mean how many towns have it all including a yarn store a toy store a decorating store you get the picture and of course Mediterra so we patiently wait on line we ordred 3 pastries a red fife bread an olive special loaf AND two gingerbread lattes with oat milk one tiny gingerbread house on one latte 11.50 for the latte I kid you not gingerbread house 5 dollars oat milk instead of milk 1.50 there you have it we waited 15minutes for the lattes go out to the car and realize our fife bread is not sliced and our olive bread not in the bag ok Sam heads back in returns with bag fife bread sliced and some sort of sliced sesame bread I go back in ask what the bread is ,....a sesame semolina not the olive which I am informed they no longer have any left SO I say fine I will take another fife sliced please the guy working there flings the sesame bread back on the shelf hands me my fife ps fife is 3 dollars cheaper then the Olive that we never received but thats the way the cookie crumbled here so between the line, the long wait and the mistake I think we will pass on returning ps the latte was tasty enough the tiny gingerbread house was legit gingerbread PS one saving grace they do have a yelp check in offer so if your reading this your obviously on Yelp read more

I can see why Mediterra gets so busy! It was delicious when we went. If you like sweets for breakfast the French toast is definitely for you! It is counter ordering, so the line does get long, then they give you a number to put at your table, which you can sit wherever. They have a large selection of cheeses and products that you can purchase separately. The bakery is really good and we loved the pastries that we took to go. read more

I had the lobster "roll" on a gluten free focaccia bread (I think). It was perfect. The bread was buttery and crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The lobster was plentiful and perfectly seasoned. I am not GF by choice and don't always love gf breads, but it was a special and the young lady at the counter said it was good, so I took a shot. WORTH IT!!!!!! My boyfriend agreed and said mine was a definite 5-Star plate. He ordered a Cuban sandwich, which I couldn't try, but said it was a 4-4.5-Star and had no complaints. Also, the staff was very sweet. This place is a must try!!! read more

We loved this spot when we moved to town, but it is beyond busy most times and when it isn't (which is when we try and go now), they have run out of things, most often the pizza (it's there when we arrive and somehow gone by ordering). We hate we haven't gotten to enjoy this spot in months. read more

Recommended for lunch by a sales lady at one of the local boutiques.. busy place, even on a weekday! Was slightly thankful for a bit of a line to give me time to really read the menu and decide.. there was even a washbowl and soap right before it was my turn where I could wash my hands! So convenient and smart! I ended up with an amazing salad that was more than I could eat! Highly recommended for a stop during your shopping day! read more

Mediterra Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Sewickley, Pennsylvania

i online ordered some breakfast before heading to work, and thought this would be a great spot. they have a little shelf in the front for pickup in the front and my order was ready in 15 minutes. I love the aesthetic they have, this place is super beautiful. I went on a Tuesday morning and they were busy but not extremely. I got the breakfast sandwich and I added bacon, avocado on top. It was great they give you a good portion size. I also got a cold brew with vanilla and oat milk, it was good but a little watered down even though I picked up right after they out it out. it was still good, I was a little worried that it was gonna be super bitter but it wasn't. so i know your thinking all this sounds great, so why only four stars ? I think the add on prices are steep for what it is, bacon is a extra two dollars and avocado is three dollars extra, and oat milk is a extra 1.50 . It was $20 ( without tip) for a breakfast sandwich and a coffee, there are definitely less expensive places. to sum it down, good food, fast service but you could get more for your buck. I would come again though but it won't be a regular spot read more

Generally unpleasant staff, chronically unable to get an order correct. They list all of the ingredients in a dish on the menu but I've never once gotten my order with everything that should be included. read more

I stopped by here twice recently, once by myself and once with my wife for lunch. The reason for the first stop to Mediterra is that it was Yelp Elite Week there and the second stop was because it was good enough I just had to take my wife. The main restaurant/store has a ton of luxury grocery items for sale along with a bunch of prepared food items, coffee and breads. The floor is a tiled black and white pattern and they have a number of display cases with lots of baked goods. Their menu is hanging on a couple of different walls and so you can prepare what to order while waiting in line. Mediterra is the type of place where you place your order at the register and then take your number to a table where your food is delivered to you. There is also a second room which has more seating in it as well as some more dry goods and a display case full of imported meats and cheeses. Things like Wagyu salami for $39.99/lb which I can't say I have ever seen elsewhere. On both days that I was there the place was packed and on the second time my wife and I had to wait a few minutes for a table. For lunch on the first day I decided to go with a piece of Calabrian sausage pizza and on the second time I split a slice of their meat pizza and a grilled eggplant sandwich with my wife. Even though the Calabrian sausage pizza was on display inside some glass whenever you walked in I didn't really appreciate how thick the crust was until it came to my table as it was about 1 1/2 inches tall. It wasn't dense though and was more an airy and seasoned crust with a nice chewy exterior to it. The toppings were piled high atop the pizza here and consisted of a light coating of cheese along with sausage, red peppers and Calabrian chiles. All of the toppings really went well together as the sausage had a good spice blend and complimented the slightly sweet red peppers. As for the Calabrian chiles, you knew whenever you bit into them as they definitely brought the heat. If you have never tasted them before you are missing out as I find them to be the epitome of a hot pepper as not only do they have a good heat to them but they have an amazing flavor as well. On my second visit the crust was the same as the first visit but the toppings this time consisted of some prosciutto, pepperoni and sausage. It was equally as good as the first visit and I know that my wife really enjoyed it. However the star of our second visit was definitely the eggplant sandwich. The menu describes it as coming on sprouted spelt with farm greens, roasted peppers, goat cheese & herb vinaigrette. Holy crap was this a good sandwich! Let's start with that sprouted spelt bread which they toasted perfectly and had a nice flavor to it. Then the goat cheese added a nice creamy and savory flavor to the sandwich. It almost covered up the taste of the eggplant but I was ok with it since it was super flavorful. Finally the greens, roasted peppers and eggplant added flavor and helped to make the sandwich feel healthy. The bottom line for me is that I will be back here again in the future. Our food here was delicious, especially that grilled eggplant sandwich. Then the pizza got my wife and I talking about pizza we ate while on our honeymoon in Rome which is always a good thing! read more

I've been here a few times now. Today I tried the shakshuka. Im syrian and make different variations all of the time. The flavor was good but the yolks were zero percent runny. Im gonna venture a guess to say this has little to do with the cooks, and more to do with its morning so they have prep work and their bosses probably don't schedule enough people to cut costs. read more

Love coming to Mediterra for a weekend brunch or lunch. My go to is the Parma cotta sandwich, the combo of the pesto with the mozzarella on their homemade bread is so delicious. Their quiche is also delicious, it's so creamy and they have rotating ingredients they put in. I'm also a big fan of their pastries! Their olive oil cake, almond croissant and cinnamon rolls are my favorites. In addition, They have fun seasonal lattes, my current go to is the maple cardamom latte. Definitely worth the drive over to Sewickley and they also opened up a store in my Mt Lebanon. read more

I loved the Mediterra on Beverly toad and so glad this one didn't disappoint. Parma Cota had the most delicious pesto on it. The Mushroom melt was outstanding: the combination of savory cheese and mushrooms with the sweet date chutney! So yummy. The side of Mac and Cheese was meh, a bit cold and nothing interesting or too spectacular. We bought the tub of pickles they give on the side because we loved them so much. And we rounded it out with a cinnamon latte & baklava croissant - the latte was delicious but a bit cold, and the croissant was good with the flavors but some parts had no flavor at all. Overall, continues to be a place I love and love to introduce to people. read more

Fabulous! Always perfect. Came in today to find they have expanded which now means much more seating and separate area for the meats/ cheeses counter. They have great high end food items Like pasta, jams etc that are great for gifts. It's east to make a gift basket. They also take catering orders. The coffee/espresso drinks are phenomal. The meals are phenomenal. It's not just a sandwhich shop. You can get French toast, baked eggs etc. the pastries are to die for and always fresh. I never leave without a fresh loaf or two of bread. The pizza is great. It's not normal greasy pizza. It's quality bread with great toppings. Pairs perfectly with their soup of the day. read more

The best cafe in Sewickley village. Every item on the menu is delicious. Consistency and quality are their success. Beverage menu will satisfy every palate and the bakery section is great. Their breads are one of their best kept secrets. They can slice them for you, if desired.

Excellent food and environment! Great service and a perfect spot for brunch and lunch!

I ate here last weekend for a quick lunch and my partner and I absolutely loved it! Because the Cafe carries break and baked goods from their own bake house, the bread you get for sandwiches is to die for. I ordered the Salmon Toast and it was perfectly portioned, seasoned, and plated to perfection. My partner ordered an iced coffee (they have their own espresso bar) and the roasted turkey sandwich. Both meals were delicious and somewhat reasonably priced, given restaurants in Sewickley can get pricy. The cafe itself is beautiful- marble counters, rustic tile floor, and a sink for customers to wash their hands while waiting in line for their food (very COVID-19 friendly). We will definitely be coming back! read more

Food is almost always excellent, and they accommodate the need for a gluten-free diet. Seating is rather limited, and it can get noisy and crowded.

We had the Baked French Toast on challah topped with pears, cranberries and local maple syrup.. We also had the Breakfast Sammie with the bacon and avocado. Both dishes were mouth watering, bursting with flavour, done perfectly and traveled well as we did take out. As a side note, their seeded rye bread is just perfect as is their baked goods. And for all you "Gluten Free Goat"fans...They are selling their baked goods here!! So happy they came to Mt Lebanon!!! ENJOY!!!! read more

I frequent this cafe several times a month as a treat for myself for a yummy food experience. The staff is great. My only complaint is the lack of air-conditioning in the cafe. Fans were blowing but it was 88 degrees outside, and the inside area felt just as hot. When I asked if the air conditioning could be turned on I was told it was broken. Now this is a regular occurrence when I've been there and they would turn it on when I asked. So after spending 50 dollars I felt dismissed. I have a health condition where I can't be in 88 degree weather. So your atmosphere was not comfortable. I was told to eat outside to resolve the situation. This issue needs to be resolved, and until it is resolved I will go elsewhere. There are other restaurants I can go to in Sewickley and I've also ordered for your Thanksgiving dinners as well. read more

I had lunch here. This was my first visit to this cafe but not my first experience with Mediterra's wonderful breads. The Grilled Parma Cotta Ham Sandwich was delicious. Great pesto flavor and crunchy sourdough. Cappuccino was very good as well. There are lots of great items for sale in this cafe and obviously bread to go! The line to order is a bit convoluted and the bussing of tables was non existent. Finding a place to sit and then getting a table wipes off was a challenge. read more

Finally had a chance to stop in after hearing a lot of hype from my friends and I gotta say the food was pretty good. The beet salad needs worked on, the dressing and beets were great but the kale was cut huge and impossible to chew, maybe switch it to arugula? Not something I would order again. I got the eggplant sandwich and it was fantastic, I would for sure order it again. I ended up taking a bunch of pastries home to my little cousins who were visiting and they were all quickly devoured. The location is super cute, almost reminds me of tatte in DC. Overall I'd go back but it seemed a little overpriced for what you get with the hot food. read more

We stopped by here on Sunday around noon to grab brunch. The cafe was pretty busy but we were able to grab a small table in a corner of the restaurant. You order at the counter, and then your food is delivered to your table if you choose to dine in. I ordered an iced pumpkin spiced latte which was very flavorful but a little warm. The french toast took significantly longer to come out than my friend's salad (like 15 minutes longer) but I could tell the french toast was fresh and it was worth the wait. It was served with apples and creme fraiche on top, along with a side of syrup. Overall my meal was delicious and I will definitely be back! read more

I went because this place has a pretty Instagram. I got the "Cereal Milk Latte" with oat milk. And apparently I couldn't get it with oat milk after I paid because it was a "premade" mixture. Then I ordered the Grilled Egg Plant Sandwich. I was excited. It came out to me like this. I was beyond disgusted. This was either not eggplant or it was expired soggy eggplant. My sandwich bread was soggy and the egg plant itself was cold. I lost my appetite looking at this thing. Wasted a morning and $20 on coffee and this terrible sandwich. Also when I sat down inside, flies were all over me. I DEMAND a refund. read more

Wow, this cafe is lovely! I couldn't believe the attention to detail that they used for the interior, and exterior design of this cafe. The space is well-lit, and open. I was impressed with the selection of sweets and freshly baked bread. My only regret was not coming here more hungry! We stopped for a cupcake, and boy was it delicious! I will say their items are a little on the pricey side, our cupcake was nearly $4.00. read more

Stopped in for lunch and there was one seat at a longer communal table, so we did take out. Started with the Pork soup that was tasty with some veggies and pork. Great way to warm up on this cold day. Had the Pastrami sandwich that came on a marble rye with spicy mustard and some pickled slaw. Sandwich was OK, guess I was expecting better, bread was very dry as if it had been sitting out overnight. Or maybe a tad over baked. Some of the pastries looked wonderful, so next time! read more

Made my first visit for a Yelp event and I have to say it was one of my favorites! The space is accented with wooden tables against a black and white mosaic floor taking you from Pittsburgh to a European cafe the minute you walk in the door. The walls are filled with olive oils, pastas, cookbooks and more. You'll come for the food, but leave with a little something to take home. For this event particularly we had three stations: bread making, a pasta station and charcuterie board building. Honestly, what more can you ask for? We filled out bellies with two types of pasta, pizza, and appetizers. No shortage of food to taste at this event. As we moved through each station the staff guided us through the cooking or baking process, ingredients selection and care they put into their work. We left with baguettes, coffee and of course - a few desserts! Highly recommend making time to visit. I'd love to come back on a Saturday morning to try out the breakfast pastries. The menu is full of so many choices, it's hard to decide. One bit of cautious is the space is small so a large group will be difficult. Looking forward to visiting again in the future! Hope to see more events at Mediterra! read more
