| - Patti's was a surprise hit in the suburb/town of White Oak. I can't think of a time that I've ever been to White Oak before but we went there to try Patti's.
I've been trying coffee shops all over the Pittsburgh area; competition is stiff but Patti's has left me dreaming for a return visit.
We went on a weekday morning. Moments after we arrived an employee brought out a massive tray of fresh stuffed rolls: sausage rolls, pepperoni rolls, spinach-feta rolls, and perhaps another flavor. As soon as we saw that, we knew that's what we wanted. I poked around the multiple bakery display cases (beautiful contents) and also picked something that was like a pinwheel-shaped cheese danish. For a beverage, I tried their Americano.
We were shocked that our breakfast order totaled less than $8.
The spinach-feta roll was huge, awesome, and only $4. The pastry was also lovely, and more than ample for the $2. The coffee had very good flavor and was only 10 cents more than drip coffee.
We enjoyed the space, as well. There are cozy chairs and tables with chairs. They also sell soup, locally made chocolates, and flower bouquets from another local business.
We went for a walk around the neighborhood and then picked up an Italian soda to go before hitting the road. Wednesday's daily special is any size Italian soda for $1.50. They use Torani syrups so the soda is nothing special but it was a good deal. Everything else was excellent.
