I am thrilled to have a new go-to coffee shop on the East End that has a large menu for both coffee and food options. It's hard to find a coffee shop that allows for you to sit and work for several hours, and that you could potentially eat several meals at if you want to work all day-- Friendship Perk and Brew might just be that place Pittsburgh has been needing!
My pumpkin cold brew was really delicious, and while I didn't try any food, the menu looks like it has options for all kinds of eaters, and adults and kids alike. I also did not order any of their gelato, but I love the idea that you could have breakfast, lunch, dessert, and a beer here if you really wanted too (read: I want to).
Parking is also very convenient, as there is ample tandem street parking outside given that it is in the heart of the Friendship neighborhood and is surrounded by beautiful historic homes. The one downside is that they are closed on Sundays, which I had to learn the hard way...but hopefully it will be here to stay and can add Sunday business hours eventually!
