I went to this interestingly phunky spot off the beaten path of this quiet little neighborhood, a relative recommend that we go about three Saturdays ago. Boi was i intrigued and amazed at the same time. Seriously service was so impressive and homely if that’s even a word that the owner came out to greet us as well. I definitely would be coming back custom coffee ☕, art and stories is well recommended.

The coffee was great, though the large was a little small for the price. The ambiance is really the draw, with a lovely outdoor patio area and a warm and decorated indoor area, perfect to chat or do work in. I also love that they have antiques and jewelry for sale, best of both worlds!

It’s a cute little neighborhood cafe. I enjoy the antiques for sale and the unique atmosphere but the drinks themselves always disappoint me. I’ve been here twice and both times I didn’t finish my drink. The flavors don’t taste how they are advertised and the espresso tastes stale. I know a lot of people love this place, unfortunately I don’t.

Biddle’s Escape in Pittsburgh offers a cozy and unique haven for coffee and food enthusiasts alike, nestled in the vibrant Lawrenceville neighborhood. The café’s charm is undeniable, with its eclectic, inviting decor and warm atmosphere—perfect for those looking to relax or engage in casual conversation. It’s a place where you can sip your beverage, people-watch, and enjoy the community vibe.

On my recent visit, I decided to sample their food offerings, starting with the grilled cheese. It was, without a doubt, the highlight of my meal. The sandwich was perfectly toasted, with gooey, melted cheese that struck a wonderful balance of savory richness. It was comfort food at its finest, and I could see why it’s a customer favorite. Unfortunately, the house soup fell flat in comparison. Described as a comforting pairing for the sandwich, it turned out bland and unexciting. There was a lack of seasoning and depth of flavor that left me disappointed.

The coffee, while decent, didn’t stand out as much as I’d hoped. It was drinkable and served in a nice, warm cup, but it didn’t have the depth or complexity that might leave a lasting impression. For a café that places a strong emphasis on quality drinks, this could certainly be an area for improvement.

As for the tea selection, I was somewhat underwhelmed by the presentation. The tea bags were all black, making it difficult to see or smell the contents before choosing a tea. The lack of visibility and the inability to sample the aroma felt like a missed opportunity to elevate the experience for tea drinkers who may appreciate a more sensory approach to selecting their beverages.

On a more positive note, Biddle’s Escape excels in customer service. The staff are friendly, approachable, and attentive, making sure that every guest feels welcomed. The atmosphere, while small, is undeniably charming with its quirky decor and cozy seating arrangements, making it easy to settle in for an afternoon of relaxation or work. Additionally, the café offers plenty of off-street parking, which is a real convenience in the busy Lawrenceville area.

In conclusion, Biddle’s Escape shines in its atmosphere and customer service, but the food and drink offerings could use some refinement. While the grilled cheese is a standout, the soup lacks flavor, and the coffee, while serviceable, doesn’t quite deliver the boldness one might expect from a café of this caliber. The tea experience could also use some improvement to cater to those who enjoy a more curated selection. Nonetheless, for a laid-back coffeehouse experience with a welcoming ambiance, Biddle’s Escape remains a charming choice for anyone in the area.

Love this little hidden gem, The staff is so friendly and a lot of fun- our barista sort of messed up my drink (literally not the biggest deal in the world, she was busy) but we were all joking about it with a couple we met there and she was a good sport and super sweet, literally great energy. The food is 100/10 we got the grilled cheese and tomato basil soup and also a breakfast burrito and wow oh wow- everything from the vibes to food to the energy this place is def top on our list. The details in this place from their unique retail to the free bagged cookies they left out for anyone to take just makes the place feel warm cozy and inviting on a cold winter day. Will 1000% be back thank you so much!!!!!!!!

Visited twice late October 2023 during my fall trip to Pittbsburgh and visiting this shop was one of my favorite moments. This quintessenial local coffee local cofee shop located in a beatiful neighborhood where you can enjoy the fall foliage and delicioius chai latte.

This coffee shop had all of the core requirements desired of a cozy coffee shop vibes and more.
Atmosphere: unique, spacious but cozy, a very cool patio space, cool randmo things for sale aside from the food, bakery items, and limited food options.

Drinks: Both times I ordered a chai latte with oat milk and cinnamon. Delicious and perfectly sweet. For lattes, they had SO many syrup options including a few madfe in house as well as some sugar free option. They also have all the common main milk alternatives.

Baked goods: I ordered the brownie and it was good as well! A nice size two that can be split or saved for later.

Seems to be popular spot in the neighborhood too but it never felt “crowded”. The staff and baristas aref reidnly- I’d def. recommend a visit if you’re in the area!

Huge variety on offer, staff is well versed on preparation of many coffee/tea-based items. Great atmosphere, great outdoor seating (with cover for rainy days!).

The shop also promotes local business, local art, and advocacy for social change. Well worth it, whether you live nearby or outside the East Pitt region.

A friend of mine told me that I would love it since I loved both the Beehives, both Oakland and South Side.

I in fact do love it maybe more than the Beehives.

This is a funky, sweet coffee house with some excellent comfort food on the menu like grilled cheese and super tasty breakfast burritos. I had the drip coffee and my guest had a decaf mocha – all good. You can bring your own cup which I would do for cappuccino. Otherwise, all coffee drinks are served in tall paper cups. They have alternatives to dairy for coffee drinks. It’s a relaxing place to be. A sign advertises various food trucks that serve on Wednesdays but we visited on a Friday.

This place is soo cute! I loved the mini antique shop inside the coffee shop, it made waiting in line really fun. The wait wasn’t too bad, and the breakfast burrito was worth the wait! I got a seasonal latte, the cinnamon toast crunch latte. It was really good. Very nice interior, beautiful patio, lots of good community vibes.
