TOLVE

This shop is very well put together. Everywhere you look, there is a nice touch. The tonic coffee was very well presented and delicious! Highly recommend to stop by and check it out.

I love coffee. And I don't mean sugar-laden, heart-attack-in-a-cup frappuccinos.

When I say I love coffee, I mean I love single origin coffee that actually tastes like something besides burnt beans (sorry Starbucks). Because I love experimenting with coffee brewing techniques at home, and have a good idea of how to brew a good cup, it takes a really excellent coffee to get me excited about visiting a coffee shop. Tolve checks a lot of boxes for what you'd think of when imagining a Lawrenceville coffee shop. It is in a historic art deco building, the inside can really only be described as trendy and modern, and the fairly small menu is split between traditional coffees as well as unique mocktails!

Unique coffee and tea shop recently opened in Lawrenceville. Specializes in “mock tails” for a different taste effect.

Their signature item tonic coffee is basically an elderflower infused tonic water. Has espresso in it but you really can’t taste it for all the herb goodness it provides.

Another favorite is the warm hug made from oat milk. Menu subject to change soon.

Owner is hosting special events based on country of origin for certain coffees.

Tonic coffee and warm hug both delicious for either a cold or hot beverage

If you’re looking for the Michelin star coffee experience this is IT. This place not only has a rotating menu of unique coffee options and mocktails like a coffee spritzer, the real star here is their “experiences”. These are very intimate, after hours tastings from around the world. Me and 3 of my friends got the whole coffee shop to ourselves for a trip to Ethiopia for $35. We learned all about the culture of Ethiopia and how coffee plays such a huge part of their hospitality traditions. We also got to try different and unexpected forms of coffee, such a coffee caviar, and traditional Ethiopian drinks like honey mead (non-alcoholic). If coffee is not your thing, they also rotate in tea tastings, like the trip to Morocco. Our experience was hosted by the owner of the coffee shop and the lead barista, who were full of knowledge and passion for coffee. This was such a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys coffee or tea. The experiences are capped at 5 people and are only offered once a week, so you will want to book it well in advance. SO worth it!

A bit small but it goes well with the minimalist aesthetic! Overall, my friends and I really enjoyed meeting here for morning coffee + the upstairs area was clean and unique!

Will definitely be back - my iced matcha was fantastic!

These beautiful drinks, the decor, the baristas -- I'm obsessed!! Their lattes just melt in your mouth. The baristas are super passionate and knowledgeable about what they're creating. I don't know much about coffee, but wow, you can taste that they know what they're doing! Also got their matcha with oatmilk and it was literal perfection -- smooth, not bitter at all, and gave me a much needed energy boost. Just loving the vibes in here. Good music, Instagram-worthy drinks, super friendly staff, I need this place to be part of my daily grind!

We were recommended Tonic Coffee and it didn't disappoint. The coffee tonic was fantastic, the vibe was awesome. I'd recommend it if you're in Pittsburgh!

I stopped in for their grand opening - it's amazing. The vibe is great. It's set up to be comfortable if you're alone or with a group. The idea of coffee and mocktails as an experience sounded peculiar, but they nailed it! I had the Tonic Coffee, their signature cocktail, and it was unique, refreshing, and had so many different flavors to it. I highly recommend this place. So cool. And glad to have it in Lawrenceville.

Tolve is truly a coffee experience. I'm not much of a coffee drinker so I am drawn to a place that takes my drink to the next level. Tolve is that place. We stopped both mornings because there was no need to try anywhere else, but I also suggest supporting small business.

Professional specialty coffeeshop. It has a spacious seating room in upstairs.
