"Honestly, The Garden Cafe is such a vibe. It’s one of those rare spots that actually feels cozy and lived-in rather than try-hard. I went in last week and It’s super chilled out, perfect if you need to get some reading done or just want to decompress. The coffee is legit—not that burnt-tasting stuff you get at chains—and their pastries are dangerously good (definitely try whatever is fresh that morning). The staff are really nice too; they don't rush you out the door even when it gets a bit busy. It’s easily my favorite "hidden gem" in the neighborhood when I need a break from the usual chaos. Definitely worth a stop if you're nearby."

"Love the Garden Cafe on Chestnut St. in Pittsburgh. Fantastic Americano. Great place, great scone. Going there again soon. You should too."

"Lovely shop in my neighborhood! Cozy, inviting, great place to strike up a chat. The staff today was beyond delightful and we traded all sorts of interesting trivia. I got a wonderful hot chocolate, and will come back for pastries! Parking available off street in the back too."

"The cold brew is SO smooth. No need to “correct” it with cream or sweetener—it’s perfect on its own! I enjoyed my cold brew with a blackberry lime scone from the counter; there’s a bunch of pastries and prepared sandwiches you can get with your drink. While my scone was just fine, I would come back again for the cold brew alone! Also the vibes in here are👌🏼(I am very drawn to a mothman print they had for sale and had to resist very hard to not impulse purchase it). And the staff is so so sweet! They have a bunch of vegan items as well. If you are a cold brew fan, check it out!"

"I was staying in an Airbnb right above this little cafe, so I decided why not check this place out. Very good espresso drinks with normal to average prices. They have a lot of options for drinks, including various syrups. Lots of residents seem to come in and out picking up drinks, which speaks to this cafe's quality! I would suggest checking them out."
