I have never wanted to drive four hours just for a latte until I tried one here. During my road trip, Pittsburgh was our pit stop for the night. Before leaving the next day, we came across Big Dog and have never stopped talking about it since. I'm not kidding, I would drive the four hours to go back.
I've tried local coffee shops wherever I travelled and so far, Big Dog wins. Oh, did I mention the bakery items? Please please please order a cookie!!! I still remember the soft gooeyness, is that a word? Who cares!!, paired with the latte. My husband had a coffee cake, and yes I stole a bite or three.
They have cute art and plenty of seats. I was surprised at how quiet the coffee shop was even though they were packed.
The employees took their time making the lattes and are very friendly.
There was plenty of street parking when we went but please read the signs in case it's permit only.
