De Fer Coffee & Tea

So glad that we decided to get our lazy bones out of bed and try this place on the first day of their fall drink menu. Now I have to say at the beginning that the food was soooo good that I forgot to take pictures, but I will rectify that when we go back. And we will be back very soon while on our staycation. The service is awesome, super sweet college aged kids who are friendly and upbeat who checked in to make sure we loved everything, which we did. A huge, and very pleasant surprise was that my favorite artist, The Art of Seth, is being featured so it was wonderful to peruse their “gift shop “ area. Bottom line, the food, the drinks, the service, the staff, and the atmosphere were stellar. A great breakfast spot and if you get there before 9:30 super easy to get a great seat.

Stopped for coffee after a MS walk in Pittsburgh! Did not disappoint! It was so good! Super friendly! Definitely a little busy on weekends, just keep that in mind! Smoothies were good.

We were visiting Pittsburgh for a few days on vacation and tried various coffee places. It's so nice when you go somewhere that goes way beyond expectations. The ambiance and vibes of this place are hjp/posh but also very welcoming and friendly..a rare combo.cwe had our 4 year old and ordered him some milk...they brought over this s'mores milk concoction out of their own inclination and he loved it! I think they even had a kitchen-type play area for kids. Our pastries and breakfast bites were fresh and delicious..I had a really delicious heirloom sandwich, with coffee and tonic water.

One of the servers even took extra time in giving us very helpful advice on how to get to various places in the city...just incredible customer-oriented magic.

I love it when you can feel like a grown up but also not feel guilty about bringing a small child to a place. Coming here for coffees and bite was legit one of the best coffee shop experiences we ever had.

Very crowded but fast... I wasn't sure if I should go in figured I'd have to wait, but I ordered right away and got my coffee fast. Was nice coffee. Didn't try food.

Staying in town for the weekend. Ordered a mocha latte and toast for pickup. My order was ready shortly after I arrived. Very cute shop, great coffee and tasty toast with strawberry preserves. Will definitely come back again.

Came back a second time in 2022. This place is the highlight of my trip. Tried an iced latte and a Lemon Thyme Yogurt Parfait (so good!).

I look forward to going to De Fer for coffee, breakfast, drinks, brunch, teas/sauces/CBD drinks with friends or by myself to work, chill and/or study. It's a great location for people watching, staff are friendly and perfect for just hanging out. Everything on their menu is great and I can truly say that because I've tried just about everything (although they do change their menu seasonally). I would be remiss to not mention their espresso martini - in my opinion, it's the best in Pittsburgh!

I love coming to Pittsburgh from 2 hours away, and I always have to have De Fer coffee when I’m here. It’s one of the best coffee shops I’ve been to out of many in the United States. For real. It reminded me of how coffee tastes in Europe.

Enthusiastic and courteous service! Nice environment and delicious matcha/tea selection as well :)

Never any seating available when I try to come here. Won’t be trying again
Response to the owner: no I will not take my review down because the point of a review is to talk to MY experience there. There’s never any seats and no diversity either whenever I come there. The point of my review was to encourage you to get more seating options but at this point I could care less what you do with your establishment because I will never come in there again to support and will not recommend it to anyone that I know

I loved this coffee shop! The service was also great. Their espresso is sour. They also have chocolate bars in various flavors. Great place overall
