Welcome to Arriviste Coffee Roasters — Shadyside

“ This is solidly in the category of hip coffee shops. The space is large, bright, clean, modern, and somewhat minimalist. We reached about 20 minutes before the closing time, so the cafe was almost empty. my friend opted for the affogato and I got the special latte with honey. Both were pretty great. We sat down with a drinks on a very comfortable sofa, which is rare for cafes around Pittsburgh. My only complaint would be the use of plastic coffee mug for my latte even for dine-in experiences. My friend did get a ceramic mug for her coffee, though. By the time we got a coffee, the barista had already started cleaning up and preparing to close the cafe, so we couldn’t enjoy much time in the cafe, and I will need to comeback. Not giving it five stars because there was nothing which stood out for me either in terms of the coffee itself or the ambience. ”

“ My early morning coffee drive to Shadyside yesterday, what I would refer to as a chic coffee shop,in the best way, Arrivaste Coffee Bar showed up! The second I stepped inside this small space, I felt like I was transported to Italy on a balcony in the city of Florence, drinking a strong expresso w/a cornetto pastry, in my hand! Taking it all in, it was time to decide what I wanted to try. The options were difficult to narrow down, and I always want something I have yet to try. The muffin stole the show. After all of that, I fixated my eyes on the pour over "machine" that was right in front of me, not having seen this before, now intrigued. It was over, I knew that was it, "yes, a pour over please" While waiting, I took a seat closest to the open door, people watching It paid off! The most beautiful dog was patiently and excitedly waiting for his dad & treat from inside. He wanted all the scratches. His mom had mentioned they were new to Pittsburgh and they love this coffee space. I felt the same! Another perfect Saturday morning jaunt to somewhere I never been before. ”

“ Beautiful and thoughtful interior with delicious classic and speciality coffee and tea offerings. Lovely soundtrack/mood (jazz funk the day we visited). We ordered “The Thrilla from Manila” (espresso, milk, ube-coconut milk sauce) and an Ethiopian pour over. $12/ 2 people ”

“ Beautiful shop with thoughtfully roasted beans and perfectly balanced drinks. I forgot the name of the barista that served me but she was kind and welcoming. You can taste the care in every cup. Easily one of the best specialty coffee experiences in town. ”

“ A cute cafe with nice interior! Not a lot of seatings though, and there is NOT any outlets available for digital devices… So if you are planning to come here to work, make sure you don’t come at a busy time (again, the space is limited) and with your laptop sufficiently charged! In terms of beverage, I ordered their latte with ube coconut milk! It’s AMAZING! Overall, I would come back here again for the drinks, but probably not back here to work for long hours. A great cafe, not the best work cafe though. ”

“ Great little coffee shop if you want a bit pricier but good quality drink! The Ube Latte is a stand out, and they also have some assorted pastries from Pigeon which are always yummy. The barista was very friendly, there’s not a lot of seating but the ambiance was really nice to do some work or read. Overall a nice place to stop by especially for the Ube Latte! ”

“ LOVED my latte here. Delicious taste, good texture. Unique flavors for sure. Good vibe- would go again! ”
