LOVE the atmosphere of this place. Local artwork, lots of seating inside and on covered patio outside. In the times that I've visited I've ordered a pour over, cortado, strawberry banana smoothie, and a plum ginger iced tea. The pour over was PHENOMENAL, and if you're a fan of black coffee I highly recommend it. The cortado and strawberry banana smoothie were both pretty good as well, but nothing remarkable. I really enjoyed the plum ginger tea as well, it was something different yet very refreshing and not too sweet. I LOVE this place! The atmosphere and service are fantastic and the menu has options for everyone, even if you don't like coffee. The only thing I will note is that parking can be be difficult, so plan to park a couple streets over or in a garage (no free parking).

Hidden gem in Southside works area!! Their coffee is very well made and they have plenty of snacks and food choices available. I love that they have an oatmeal and yogurt bar where you can choose your own toppings that they offer. This cafe is study friendly, has many tables and outdoor seating available. It's very colorful and vibrant inside with the decorations and different types of colors going on! We got an iced mocha latte and an iced lavender latte. If you like your drinks on the sweeter side, I recommend adding more sweeteners as they come a bit slightly sweetened.

Favorite coffee shop in Pittsburgh. I love to sit by the fire this time of year with a latte and read. So cozy with plenty of space, where you can either lounge in a soft chair or do some work at a table. The baristas are always friendly. You would think a latte is hard to mess up, but their lattes truly are some of the best tasting in the city.

Absolutely charming little shop! The ambiance is delightful, with vibrant art, comfortable seating, and beautifully restored original features. I had an iced americano, which was well done! I wish they had stevia and served in reusable cups, but I'd still be glad to return.

I randomly looked up this place wanting some coffee and it was the closest to my location at the time. I got the flannel latte and it was delicious! I also loved the coffee shop itself! Such a great place to read a book, do some work, or spend time with some friends!

Visiting from out of state & stopped on our way to dinner. This place is aesthetically beautifully, with a gorgeous outside & unique interior. The staff was very friendly & our drinks were decent. I would definitely come to try a different drink in the future.

Love this little gem in the Southside. Always have different seasonal options and new selections of coffee, on top of the baked goods offered (including Nancy B cookies!). I had one of the new Colombian roasts and absolutely loved it. That's not to mention the cozy inside that just draws you in. A day that starts at Big Dog is bound to be a good one.

My favorite coffee shop in Pittsburgh! Ambience: 5/5, Taste: 5/5, Value: 5/5 I dream of this coffee shop and their big colorful mugs! This has been my favorite coffee shop for many years and even though I no longer live in Pittsburgh, it is a must visit every time I come back. This is a cute little coffee shop with a little outdoor patio area as well (and if you're lucky you will get a glimpse of the owners two big dogs). The coffee tastes great and is served in big colorful ceramic mugs.
