| - Adda is a contender for one of the best coffee shops in the Burgh. It's location in East Liberty is a plus because of the whole scene of the town and access to excellent food. And if you're like me, inspiration comes from the movement of the city. You get that inspiration in this coffee shop as its front windows gets you looking at S Highland Ave and it's back side windows draws you to train tracks and urban art. The ambiance is fantastic. The wood floors, white walls, and pops of teal make the inside of this shop wildly attractive.
Ambiance is a big deal to me with coffee shops. I will gladly withstand a lack of quality of beverage if the ambiance is good enough. Luckily, with Adda you get ambiance AND quality. Their mocha is legit. Trust me. Get a mocha. You won't be sorry.
I also have always had great experiences with the baristas here. They are conversational and you don't get any err of snootiness like you might get with other coffee shops of this quality. They're down to earth, friendly people. Thanks guys!
I'm kind of weird in also wanting things like a little cup of water with my coffee drinks. They have that self-serve water reservoir ready for anyone who would want to partake. Excellent.
Free wifi. Sometimes hard to connect. Can be annoying and unreliable. Be aware.
The only couple downsides are the seating, the bathroom, and the hours of operation. There is limited seating. If you get a seat you will be perfectly happy and in pure bliss of coffee drinking/work working experience. The bathrooms aren't dirty but they are basically in the middle of the shop, which poses 2 problems . . .
1. Depending on what happens in there you may or may not smell the aftermath (you don't want that mixing with your mocha).
2. Depending on what happens in there and how long you take, you may or may not feel the "all eyes are on me" kind of feeling.
*In a perfect world you would use the restroom and feel as though no one in the world ever noticed.
The hours of operation are so confusing to me. Most days this shop closes at 6pm. That's just crazy, and for how good of a shop this is I almost deducted a star. But I didn't. Just please extend your hours. I don't think you'll be sorry.
Don't let these few downsides take too much away from this place as a whole. Adda is great and I would go out of my way to go there. In fact, I have. I will. I must!
