| - Zeke's Coffee... It's the best!
A while back I started noticing that my favorite local coffee shops were all using Zeke's. During a recent visit to Baltimore, I was again raving about Zeke's and discovered through the conversation that Zeke's is originally from Baltimore, which led me to do some research and they not only have additional locations in Pittsburgh, but also DC.
Now about the shop itself...I could not ask for a more enjoyable experience every time I stop in here. I'm lucky enough that this location is very close to my work, so I stop in fairly regularly either for a morning coffee or an afternoon pick me up. At either time, there's a sense of busy-ness, sometimes there's a line, but I never wait long. The staff is always extremely friendly and seems genuinely happy to work at a place like this. I don't always tip for my coffee everywhere I go, but I definitely tip here. These guys definitely make your day.
As for the coffee...delicious! The cold brew is also exceptional, as I'm not one to put cream and sugar in my coffee, so I appreciate the smoothness it provides instead of being overwhelming. One thing I've recently discovered is their iced teas. They're not your usual teas, but things like Earl Grey, which I wouldn't think to normally turn into an iced version--but do yourself a favor and try it out!
On top of the great drinks, they also have a variety of sweets and breakfast delights. They now make the breakfast stuff on premise (and I think the sweets too).
I love sitting outside of this place in nice weather on their picnic benches amongst the chill vibe.
All in all, excellent coffee at a totally reasonable price.
