Caffè d’Amore Coffeeshop

I loved this place when they opened, but the hours kept changing, and the chairs are really uncomfortable. The coffee was really good. I wish there was more consistency in hours, and more space, because I live close by. Music was really great when I was there.

Not a bad place. Has the Lawrenceville ambiance. Small cool business. Barista was quite nice and talkative. Lots of cool tea options and support farmshares. Almond milk available!
Sadly, my impression was tarnished by the interaction of the barista/​owner with two young black girls that walked in asking for ice. She replied «do you have a dollar… It’s a pretty expensive machine… But you can help yourself to water, it’s limitless» I get it’s a business and not free drinks place, still.
Wish I had offered them the $.
I probably won’t be coming back.

I always appreciate a coffeeshop that has a great tea selection, and Caffe d’Amore has it! I love that they also offer teas from local Hillcrest Farms, number one because it’s local and number two because it’s good! I tried the Earl Grey and it was fab!
Glad to also know that they carry almond milk, but I feel like with independent coffee shops, that’s becoming the norm. I’m also obsessed with their lemonades. They had one last year that was lavender and I craved it! I can’t wait to see what concoctions they’ll come up with this summer!
I have to note that the employee was one cool chick. She was friendly to us, yes, but a homeless man came in that seemed to be not in his right mind, but very harmless. He was just talking and talking and she was so nice to him. She gave him her own clementine, which I thought was very sweet. She was just so patient and kind, and it was nice to see.
I like the bar set-​up to work from more than the small table in the back (it’s the only table in the place). It was a little awkward to have two computers at, and when we added a third, it was a bit much. I know it’s a small place though, so I’m happy to stop in and grab some delicious tea or lemonade and work from the bar myself!

Great coffee shop! Has everything that you would want — delicious coffee, cozy space, nice people, good music. The kind of place that makes you happy that you live in Pittsburgh.

I wanted to make sure I gave this coffee shop several chances before writing a review. I’ve gone there approximately 8 times and have always had the same type of experience. Pros: OK coffee, great cookies, cute place. That’s it.
The first time I went, it was the first day they were opened. I ordered a cappuccino. The barista handed me my drink and said, «Whoops. I wasn’t paying attention and made a latte by accident.» I took it anyway, but was shocked that she didn’t even ask if that was OK. Every time I’ve gone in, I’ve felt like an inconvenience to the barista. One sat on her phone while I stood there waiting. Another said literally nothing and just stood there looking at me. I’ve gotten one friendly «hello» from one of the baristas, but that’s it. Would it kill any of them to smile or say, «Hey, how’s it going?» It’s not an inviting atmosphere and only one barista seems even remotely friendly. Finally, I went in one more time and was utterly disgusted at the smell. It smelled as though a toilet overflowed and a pack of dead animals were piled up behind the counter. I was so disgusted and don’t even want to know how a coffee shop (usually one of my favorite smells) had the ability to smell that bad.
I’d love a good coffee shop down this end of LV and would even take a mediocre one. But, the unpleasant baristas and unwelcoming atmosphere is enough to make me drive to 6^th Ward for coffee.

This café is amazing! The cold brew coffee, the maple lattes… WOW I’m making this my everyday coffee spot. It’s just so great!

The coffee bar is actually set up as a bar and each barista (at least the ones I know) are all super friendly and intelligent– great conversationalists! And they are super passionate/​nerdy about their coffee.
Warmth in both the interior decoration and the staff = A superb place to have a cup a joe

I love trying out new coffee places, so I was excited to give Caffè d’Amore a visit. The shop itself is small but really cozy and quaint. There is a bar with stools as well as some other seating, so it would be great for catching up with a friend or doing some reading with a nice warm beverage in hand.
I decided on an Americano and was pleased. It had the perfect espresso-​to-​water ratio, so that the espresso flavor was still robust and not too watery. I barely added anything to it (just some cream to mellow things out), which shows they’re using high quality espresso that can stand all on its own.
The guys working were both friendly and relaxed. The whole atmosphere is calm and quiet, and I can definitely see myself spending more time here in the future.

Cute place. Good coffee. Knowledgable and nice baristas. What more can you hope for?
I was pleasantly surprised (who am I kidding… I practically yelled) when I discovered that they sell Om Nom Bake Studio sandwich cookies. For those who are unaware: Om Nom has the best sandwich cookies ever to exist in the history of all the universe. I believe they also offer some real sandwiches (of the non-​cookie variety).
So far, I’ve only tried their matcha latte and a pour over and both were really great. They use Deeper Roots Coffee and I’m a new fan. I got a bag of the Guatemalan beans for home consumption and wow — it’s delightful.
I heard a lot of talk about the maple latte that’s on the menu (made with real maple syrup). So I’ll have to try that next time I’m around.
