I am one of those people who needs to put things in my coffee. I can't drink it black. La Prima Espresso Company has actually broken me out of this habit. I went back here several times over a 3 day period during my visit in Pittsburgh.
We stumbled across this cute Italian coffee shop on our way to watch the runners at the Pittsburgh Marathon. I needed coffee and I needed it now. This was the first place I saw. To my amazement, the coffee was probably some of the best I've had. I kid you not. I did not have to put anything in it (I did add some cinnamon though). It is fantastic! Perfectly brewed to perfection. I even bought a bag of beans of La Prima's own Grow Pittsburgh brand bold flavor that they have made locally. It's delicious!
This is a really authentic Italian coffee shop attached to a bakery and a wonderful find right off "The Strip" in Downtown Pittsburgh.
