Allegheny Coffee & Tea Exchange

The only place I get my whole coffee beans and sugar free syrup. Everyone is so friendly.

Best place in Pittsburgh to purchase quality coffee and tea by the pound. Allegheny has a large selection of coffee from all over the world, including many types of flavored coffees. You can select whole beans and grind them fresh right there using their machines. The aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans upon walking into the store is intoxicating. I almost always purchase a hot coffee or a cool nitro coffee in the summer when I'm shopping there as well. The baristas and store clerks are super friendly making for an even better experience. You definitely want to stop in on your next trip to the Strip District!

Ordered two hot chocolates. We got two hot milks with no chocolate. Three adult men couldn’t get a hot chocolate order correct is extremely disappointing on a cloudy rainy Pittsburgh day. Usually the hot chocolate is the best in Pittsburgh and I say that with zero exaggeration.

The chai latte tasted very sweet and artificial with very little tea favour. When you first walk in, all you smell is the flavoured coffee and syrups. If you want a very good coffee or tea, head to the authentic La Prima just down the street.

Between this place and La Prima, I'm not sure who I would put in first. They both have a unique experience to offer their guests, so it would be worthwhile to visit both! The thing I liked about Allegheny was their wild variety of beans to choose from. I ended up bagging a rather traditional Kona blend, and it's been great to drink in the morning at home.

Great place with great staff and delicious drinks. I love that they have coconut milk as an option. Plus they have Nitro coffee, which is very interesting and smooth with some beer-like froth.

There's also an interesting section where they have a large selection of coffee that you can take some yourself!

I absolutely love this place. Such variety, friendly workers, and great atmosphere. Its my favorite place to get fresh coffee, either on the go or to brew at home.

Nice place to grab your favorite cup of joe. This place has a homie feel and smells amazing! The staff was very personable.They have a great selection of beans!

My mom loves their highlander grogg coffee blend, so I ordered her a 1 lb. bag for Mother's Day and had it sent to her house. I got an email notification that it shipped the very same day, and she received it the next day! In addition I had left a note that this was a Mother's Day gift and to use a gift receipt, and not only did they do that, but also sent along a cute Happy Mother's Day flyer! That was so thoughtful and really went the extra mile. We will be happy to buy again!

While visiting Pittsburgh, we stopped by this tea shop to buy some new teas to bring home. We bought Earl Grey Red and Summer Fruit Flavor. The Summer Fruit Flavor is incredibly delicious severed chilled. I haven't tried the Earl Grey yet, but I'm sure it's equally superb. This place had dozens of tea and coffee flavors to choose from. Definitely check it out if you're a tea and/or coffee fan!
