"As soon as I walked in and saw the simple coffee menu & small cup sizes, I knew we were in the right spot. After ordering coffee from other local places where it seems like you just get a cup of 90% steamed milk, the difference here was like night and day. For us, it was absolutely worth the wait in line, which didn’t feel that long. I got a 4 oz. cappuccino which was delicious - not too sweet but not too bitter, as it should be. My husband took one sip of his drink as we were walking out and he said, “THAT’S how you make a cortado.”"

"This coffee shop is amazing! Their caramel and vanilla iced macchiato is miles better than what I’ve had at other places perfectly balanced and full of flavor. I also tried the iced vanilla Americano, and it was just as delicious. Definitely a new favorite spot for my caffeine fix! 🙆🏽‍♀️"

"Atmosphere- 3 stars- located in the Strip District of Pittsburgh this small coffee shop is clean but basic- nothing fancy. Some tables to stand at inside and some tables outside to people watch. Service- 4 stars- friendly and efficient. Food- we had the Iced Carmel Lattes- not bad just would have liked a bit more coffee and little be less ice next time."

"Hands down the best coffee in Pittsburgh!!! The highlight of my work day is going for a cup of La Prima, staff is so friendly and helpful. If you’re getting coffee anywhere else you’re making a huge mistake. My only wish is they had a loyalty program!"

"This is the OG coffee spot in pittsburgh and for a good reason. The cafe itself is pretty simple, looking with some chairs and tables on the outside for you to enjoy the coffee. Their coffee is top notch, and in fact for my coffee at home, I only get coffee from La Prima. Got the vanilla latte and as expected, it was very good. Just the right amount of syrup. It was little pricey though. They don’t carry a lot of food, but then you can just go next door and get amazing pastries and pies and pizzas. Whenever I want a good reliable coffee to go, this is my spot."
