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.

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.

Don't sleep on this place! I used Google maps on the way home or I probably never would have found…read moreit. Their coffee is great! I got a honey cinnamon latte that they had, one of their specialty drinks and it was delicious! The coffee itself is great quality. Veteran-Owned as well so it's a great place to support. I found street parking pretty easily, it's right along the main drag. I saw that they had one table in the back that was filled with vets and a service dog working on a puzzle, it warmed my heart. They roast their own beans here so you can check out all of the equipment as well.

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.

The coffee was expertly prepared as we enjoyed our toddler niece painting her ceramic project…read more Great fun for her and admirable assistance from the attentive staff. The fruits of child preparedness artwork will be fired and ready for us to collect in 2 weeks!

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.

Are you freaking kidding me!?! Can someone please pinch me?!? Thank God I do not live closer to…read morethis place bc I would be broke and fat but I sure would be happy. 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. I promise you - you will not be disappointed.

So I think I underestimated this place. Underestimated how popular and trendy this place is…read more Underestimated the parking situation. Underestimated the size of the breakfast sandwiches. Underestimated how expensive two sandwiches and two drinks would be ($50 including tip). I can see why this little place people will drive for. The sandwiches were really good. The vampire slayer was actually my fav with that jam just fire. The drinks were mediocre. Nothing to brag about. I loved seeing their premade foods. Everything looked absolutely delicious. The employees were hopping because we must have came at a busy time. All in all, I could have split a sandwich with my wife and still be full. I could have gotten a drink cheaper at Starbucks, although they have a plethora of drink choices which was neat to see. If you're going to make a visit, be patient with the parking. Don't be a jerk and block someone in!

Their seasonal specials and homemade syrups were delicious, really loved the coconut one but all of them sound great. Also their prices are far more reasonable than a lot of other cafes, so will definitely come back to read, do work, or just hangout

What a cute shop with vintage energy and style! Lots of cozy seating - would be a great place to…read morework or read for a while. The coffee was delicious! 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.

A social media phenomenon that cultivated a following to move from a trailer into brick and mortar…read more With the creative flavors and cool canning process, Groove Coffee has become something of a must do in the east suburbs. The drink menu is extensive and full of fun. We went with friends and grabbed Dirty Cherry Pop Lotus Energy Drink, Oatmilk Cold Brew, and Oatmilk Chai Latte. The drinks are so flavorful and fun to sip on! We also grabbed food - a croffle should be more recognized. Croissant waffles rival the popular cronut - croissant donut. We grabbed a Ham and Cheese Croffle and a Cookie Butter Croffle. Everything was made quick even with a large line for the entire time that we were there! The interior is gorgeous. Murals on the walls, photo booth ready in the corner, different size and types of tables and chairs, open air to the back patio with tables right on the bike trail. This Saturday, they even had a pop-up table with Cookey inside the shop too!

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.

Cute! Excellent espresso and they make their own syrups!…read more The coffee syrups are made in house, aside from the sugar free options. This is a sure way to get bonus points in my book! A homemade syrup goes great lengths. I had the homemade raspberry in a mocha and it was absolutely delicious, rich, and divine while still being able to actually taste the espresso/coffee flavors. This is just the way a perfectly crafted latte should be in my opinion. Space is small, standing room only inside. More of a grab and go situation. The man working on the Sunday morning I stopped in was friendly, quick, and efficient. Service wasn't the quickest since there was a small line inside and only one person working, but this was not an issue for a Sunday morning coffee stop where I was willing to take my time!
