Let’s start with the incredible atmosphere of intentionally creating a warm, eco centric, bird loving, environment! Then, let’s talk about the food and drinks- delicious, mouth watering, high quality, and sustainably sourced ingredients! And finally, the target birds. The owners were so kind as to entering my target bird enthusiasm! Genuinely, this was such a wonderful visit on our time in the Burg. Thank you for crafting such a wonderful and qualitative experience!

What a great coffee shop! It’s on the bottom floor of an office building. Bird themed, there are bird books and stuffed animals everywhere. Plenty of seating in two rooms and parking out front. My hot ube latte was excellent and my wife enjoyed her iced latte.

New to the area and needed to start checking out the coffee places. Went here first based on the cute logo and their sustainability. Ended up getting multiple bags of coffee, a cute mug and a honey date cold brew. The coffee smells so good and we can’t wait to try it. The cold brew had fantastic flavor. The spot is modern and chic. The staff member was fantastic! Very friendly and funny. This is for sure our new and only spot.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Pittsburgh. Such a nice place to sit and chill, lovely staff, and a clear focus on wildlife (especially birds, of course) conservation in their business. I love coming here and reading the comics, joke books, and informational reference guides about birds, particularly their copy of False Knees, and they even have board games and cool merch for sale. My only gripe is that the outlets for charging are a little funky.

One of the best coffee roasters in PGH. Great place to talk with a friend and enjoy a delicious coffee. Usually quiet so read a book, study or get some work done. Plenty of outlets if you need to plug in a laptop. Comfortable couches and chairs. Friendly service

This is probably my favorite cafe in Pittsburgh so far! I love that the space is open with lots of natural lighting. As a bird friendly cafe, they have lots of cute bird decorations all around the cafe! While the high table my friend and I sat at didn't have any outlets, there were quite a lot at other tables as well as the couch area. As for beverage, I got a lavendar latte and it was good as expected :) Although I wish they had more menu options, such as seasonable specials (they have a pretty standard menu). What really surprised me about this cafe is that it's situated at a plaza and comes with free parking—definitely rare in Pittsburgh!!! Overall, I would definitely recommend this cafe given its cute, well lit environment, the convenience of parking/outlets and its decent drinks.

Awesome local friendly coffee shop. Good selection of coffees and snacks (muffins cookies etc). Very welcoming, comfy couches and space if you want to take a laptop to do some work. Parking is available and it's open from 7am.

Got the honey date latte iced! Was delicious; great space too; was very spacious and quiet to work in. They note that their coffee is bird friendly so it’s eco conscious.
