it was a cold rainy afternoon in the Burgh...I was in need of a warm sandwich and a place to sit and relax.
Friendship is a great neighborhood lots of beautiful old houses including one right on South Pacific where Perk and brew is located
easy parking in the street
headed in very welcoming
cases of yummy looking bakery items
you order at the counter
and then your food is brought to you
menu on the board
offering salads , sandwiches And a reuben I was in the mood for a reuben but as you know they have corned beef in them I asked for a reuben hold the meat the girl said no problem
the bakery case had mini pies including pumpkin which I chose
I was asked if I wanted whipped cream yup!
lots of coffee offerings
and chai beverages I ordered and iced chai
its a relaxed atmosphere with plenty tables
wood floors and a living room feel with big old pictures of and I am assuming its the neighborhood
the waitress is the sweetest
came to see if my sandwich was what I wanted. It was better then expected Swiss cheese on nice toasty marble rye. There was a side of chips with a bit of savory spice to them
my little pumpkin pie was perfect not to sweet I really enjoyed it (next time I will try the pumpkin brownie.
my chai was spicy which is so good not watered down blah
We even discussed the neighborhood and she told me where her gram's house used to be and I told her about the "haunted' house I went to see ( I was looking for my new home)
we both agree this is a nice neighborhood
I fully agree this is a great coffee spot to have a bite and a coffee
I'll be back for sure
