Even though it was slow, staff weren't as helpful this time as they usually are, told us (politely) to just smell stuff on our own and bring it to the counter if we want to buy it. Every other time, it's a great experience and they come out and help, especially if you don't know your teas, if can be overwhelming. The lemon black tea is good, we made it when we got home! Looking forward to trying all of the others we got. read more

Great selection of coffees and teas from all over, the shop smells amazing even from the street, and the shop was also very clean with helpful and friendly staff. Pretty good prices too. Nice place to stop in if you're local for some free smells, but good luck not making a purchase! Chances are you'll find something you'll want to buy! read more

Fresh roasted coffees from around the world. The service is the BEST! So many other offerings you don't find anywhere else . I live in The Strip- this is THE coffee bean place read more

Great experience!!! The shop smells wonderful. The staff is helpful and friendly. They have an awesome selection of both coffee and tea. Better yet, they have loose leaf tea. I bought some Cherry Black Tea. I was given information on how I can order their tea from Denver! I heard someone saw that this place smells like pancakes and I agree. I could spend some serious time and money there!! Prices were reasonable and the tea is delicious. I will be back but I can also order from Colorado-bonus. read more

I have been coming here for years and I have loved the loose teas that they have for sale. The variety is first rate and the quality is excellent. There are so many that it makes it difficult to choose. This is how I first experienced this shop is with the teas, however I have since tried their coffee. Could I have guessed that their coffee would be excellent as well? Maybe not, but it really is so great. They certainly strive for quality in this area as well. The advantage they have as a local store is that they pay attention to the needs of the customer. You can even ask them to make you a custom blend of coffee of your choice, wow. You can also order a cup of tea, or coffee right there in the store. If you ask for a recommendation they will give it to you gladly. The store has a very wooden, old fashioned look to it that is very charming. The tea is displayed nicely, so that you can get an idea of what it is like. This place comes with my highest recommendation. read more

Best iced tea and coffee. We always stop hete when at the Strip. Roasted peanuts always fresh and delicious.

From what I understand, this is one of three Coffee Roasters in PGH. I stopped by on a Monday morning, and everyone was super friendly. They had fresh coffee brewing and at the ready for any passerbys. I picked up a large (24oz) of their Medium Brew for the day which was the Costa Rican. read more

A very cool coffee and tea shop. Tons of options to choose from. A classic shop that you'd expect to find in a city market area like the strip. Both of our coffee drinks were excellent and we loved checking out all of the different varieties they had in stock. read more

This was my first time at this coffee/tea shop and I will definitely be here again! They have so many different flavors to choose from for both tea & coffee! I ordered a hot butter pecan latte with almond milk (wasn't even extra!) and it was delicious, perfect for a chilly fall afternoon of walking down the strip. My sister got a hot rose latte and my husband got a vanilla almond tea. Everything was very good. They have so many different teas to choose from, my husband took forever to decide on just one! We were there on a Saturday so it was pretty crowded but our drinks were ready very fast. There's no seating, only to go orders. read more

What a great shop and incredible selection friendly friendly staff. The roster in the back was incredible. So many coffee selections the biscotti looked pretty good as well. They've been on the strip for 60 years. We sat outside and enjoyed our biscotti, almond Joy chocolate smoothie & Boston cream pie infused coffee. The specials look wonderful and the prices can't be beat. We went back before they close to purchase for large coffee's for the next two mornings in our hotel. Phoenix was wonderful she remembered is packed everything up beautifully. Thank you Phoenix! read more

I loved Prestogeorge! They have an outstanding selection of bulk coffees and teas with fair pricing and knowledgeable, helpful staff. Their to-go coffee menu is also great - they have some of the best lattes in the strip and if they're offering a special flavor, then you have to try it. read more

My second time here and was disappointed with Ice-tea! Last time had a cappuccino and didn't hold up to standard compared to the cafe across the street. The hibiscus tea tasted like 85% water! Still, they do have a good selection of tea and coffee that you can buy and make at home. read more

The corporate world has become a major player in the coffee and tea business. The whole process of getting coffee has been mechanized into a machine that churns out flavored sugar milk. Quick, convenient, and impersonal. Prestogeorge doesn't feel like a corporation at all. Of course the staff are quick, knowledgeable, and make the process of buying coffee easy, but the place feels more like entering an old apothecary shop, pitching delicious smelling potions and elixirs. Jars stuffed with all kinds of teas and dried fruits line the walls, while old style roasting and brewing machines give the place an old world charm that simply doesn't come with any massive chain store I have visited. I was a steady Prestogeorge customer for years, but circumstances moved me away from Pittsburgh. I have since tried tea shops across the United States, and have found no place quite like Prestogeorge. I still order tea online from them because their products are amazing. Try the Lady Grey blend and I challenge you to tell me you've had better somewhere else. Good coffee is about freshness and roast, and they work on a small enough scale to keep it fresh by the time it gets to the cup. They know their business. They have been operating since 1980, and they have only improved their process. I finally got back to Pittsburgh after seven years, and I made a special point to visit their home base in the Strip District. I was astonished that some people on staff remembered me after all that time. Everyone was so nice and welcoming, I didn't want to leave. It is such an amazing place, I can't wait to get back to Pittsburgh to visit again, maybe try something I haven't had yet. Online is great, but going in Prestogeorge...the smells, the tastes, the staff, all the neat stuff in jars...that is a quintessentially Pittsburgh experience to me. read more

Once you start buying fresh coffee beans & tea from Prestogeorge, there's no going back. They have an incredible selection of both, in addition to a full coffee bar menu made to-go, lots of biscotti and a handful of helpful tools for sale for your inner barista/o. My favorite coffee blend is the Highlander Kreme, which has just the right level of vanilla flavor. I typically mix some of these beans with various signature blends of theirs. You can't go wrong. read more

I am not a coffee connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination but I do enjoy a good latte. Popped by while exploring the Strip District and figured a boost of caffeine would do me good - wide variety of coffee and tea drinks available at the front counter, order and browse while it's being made. I got the Thin Mint latte while BF got a chai - my drink was on point and he enjoyed his, barista had an attitude and seemed annoyed at everyone. Thankfully, other staff on site were friendly to balance her out. Drink prices are very reasonable here, too. They have a HUGE variety of teas and coffee beans available, and they roast beans on site - head to the back down the hall to see the roaster in action. Picked up a few gift items here for the holidays. read more

This shop needs to educate employees better. Visited the other day and bought a half pound of Hawaiian Blend and half a pound of Harrar ground for a Moka pot. Unfortunately it was ground fine and far too fine for a Moka pot. Both give a cup with sludge in the bottom and fine sediment in the cup. Because of this, the taste is abysmal. Unfortunately I'm only visiting for a few days, otherwise I would either come back for a refund or replacement. read more

This quickly became my favorite coffee spot in the strip district, after literally trying all of them haha. My go to order is a large iced latte with almond milk, add cinnamon powder mixed in with the espresso. It's so good! The quality of the espresso is smooth and tasty, not bitter at all, you don't even need sweetener. And the price is reasonable. I appreciate that they don't charge extra for almond milk (or soy, extra charge for oat milk). Everyone who works here is super friendly and helpful. Great local spot. They also have a massive assortment of teas and coffee for purchase, and other goods for purchase along the side wall. They also sell biscotti in fun flavors! read more

My wife and I drink a lot of coffee and my wife, son and I also drink a lot of tea so this place was was like a little slice of heaven. When Wifey and I walked in there was an amazing guy working with a customer and they were choosing and then hand mixing tea for her. Watching him work with her and talking about the different teas I wanted to just let him work some magic for us. Sadly, we didn't have time to wait for tea, but we did a walk-through and did buy some coffee. Makes me sad we don't have a place like this at home here in Jersey. If my son comes to school here I will 100% stock up on some tea and coffee. read more

I wish my first experience here had been a little different. I loved the overall ambiance of the place, they had tons of coffee beans and tea leaves you can purchase. We only ordered drinks this Sunday morning. My partners hazelnut latte was great! Unfortunately, my chocolate raspberry latte tasted like straight raspberry syrup. I thought maybe it just wasn't mixed in well enough so I tried to do that as we walked, but even after drinking about half all I was tasting was sugary syrup and couldn't finish. I gave four stars because as I said the ambiance was great and my partners drink was very tasty. Hopefully the syrupy drink was a one time thing, but I also try to be fully honest in my reviews! read more

Don't exactly know what happened at Prestogeoarge... this venerable Pittsburgh institution appeared to have taken on new "management" at some point and indeed they are able to sell the old inventory but manage now to turn away substantial business volume by allowing the cappuccino machine to fall into disrepair. No more expresso drinks! read more

Coffee is so good. People are very helpful and know what they are talking about! Love the smells!

When I muster the courage to drive into the Strip District, this is one of the few places I absolutely need to go to. Great selection of coffee with fair prices and a friendly staff. Recommend the JP Heardy (Hearty? I can never remember) blend. read more

To me, there is no better espresso than Prestogeorge's. I've been buying their Italian Roast Espresso beans for many years, and their product is consistently excellent, whether I have it as a straight espresso or in a latte (it has a strong, dark, and powerful taste that can't be beat). Their in-store latte is also outstanding, due to their superior beans (and a 16 oz. is only $2.50... that's a deal!). Of course, Prestogeorge has much more than just espresso... they have hundreds of different coffees and teas. I've tried many different coffees, and they tend to be quite good. In particular, their flavored coffees are on target when you're in the mood for something a little different. The staff in store are efficient, professional, friendly, and always willing to help. It's a must stop for me when I make it down to the Strip District. The only negative is that they aren't open late on weekends. If you're a fan of high-quality coffee and espresso, you owe it to yourself to try Prestogeorge coffee. read more

There is absolutely no other place like this one for hundreds of miles. In the Strip, next to Mancini's bread, near Wholeys, Prestogeorge brings the TEA AND COFFEE VARIETY, like no other. In fact, they supply many places around Pittsburgh! Without this place I would never have discovered Puerh, my all-time favorite tea. The JP Hearty Blend is their signature blend, and is a good cup of coffee. I have like 50 bags of tea from this place (no exaggeration!) in my cupboard. Coming here is an addiction, for my addictions! read more

Whenever we visit Pittsburgh we have to make a stop for some coffee and tea. They have so many flavors to choose from and I try a new tea every time we go.

1st off, this place is a 20/10, 5 stars. But, here's why I gave it 2 stars. I was down in the strip this past Monday stopped in at Prestogeorge. I absolutely love this place. I come here often and get pounds of coffee and I'll occasionally get a cup to go. This Monday I was there and something was happening outside with one employee who needed some assistance, and this other employee, a big guy, with long hair, just burst out yelling "OH MY F***ing God! Then screamed something about incompetence and stormed off. I was in such shock and disgusted. It was so unprofessional and I hope Prestogeorge does away with that employee. The new manager seemed to calm everything down and was really nice. I love this coffee shop. I want to keep coming back. God bless. read more

Swung through here the other day as I needed some beans for the house, and I wasn't getting to my normal favorite spot for a week or so. Very glad I did! Speaking to one of the counterfolk, I found her knowledgeable about coffee, and they offered to show me the roasting area. They had a solid selection of various regional beans from all over. I selected some Celebes and my old favotite, Jamaican Blue Mountain. The latter I am often skeptical about, as there have been problems with the authenticity of this bean through the years. One look and I knew they were real...and the freshness brought a great cup the next morning. Nice shop, wide selection, helpful and smart staff...we can do this again! Well done! read more
