Blessed with Commonplace Place coffee in Squirrel Hill, I often wonder how the people in Shadyside make it. I think Jitters is probably the best option within Shadyside, but it is not my favorite coffee shop by any stretch.
I ordered a hot chocolate and a blueberry muffin on my most recent trip. Both were good and enjoyable, and I would come back and get either of these to go.
The atmosphere is just not good, though. There are only five tables, and most are packed with wifi hogs. On top of that, the busy hallway leading to the rest of the building goes right through Jitters making it feel chaotic. The employee working was very friendly, but it didn't make up for the lack of atmosphere.
Overall, Jitters is good for a quick coffee to go.
