TOLVE

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!

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.

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!

Very cute. Interesting menu. Friendly staff and knowledgeable. Well priced. My latte was very good

Some of the best coffee I’ve had and loved the shop itself. Definitely a gem in Lawrenceville.

Wow, this place is unlike anything I’ve had before. Coffee mojito was amazing! Looking forward to trying the entire menu.

Please update opening hours. It supposed to be open based on the opening hours in Google maps but it was closed when I was there.

Definitely one of the best coffee place in Pittsburgh. I ordered pour-over and it was perfect.

Interesting drinks and friendly staff.

This place is strictly for rich/wealthy people. Their prices are disgustingly high for no reason; for reference, higher than Starbucks. If I could give negative stars I would, STAY FAR AWAY unless you make well over 6 figures and wanna throw money away for regular coffee

I take a walk daily from my home in the Strip to Lawrenceville. So, for the longest time, I would stop into Espresso a Mano and get a coffee or iced coffee, depending on the season. I had never been in Tonic before, but one random day, I decided to hike up the hill instead of walking toward Lawrenceville. To my surprise, Tonic turned out to be one of the best coffee places I have ever been to, and I consider myself a bit of an expert. I have ordered a variety of choices from their menu, as well as a vanilla latte, and all have been superb. Their pour over is one of the best in town. As I usually stick to black coffee, they have a variety of different options in this vein, and all are delicious. I think the key is the Japanese technology they use to make everything, and it is certainly impressive to look at. So is the decor, and even the bathrooms are amazing. The only thing I have a complaint about is the hours, as they are not open late, but neither was Mano. So I'm used to having to get my coffee fix before three, like a normal person, instead of drinking coffee all day, like I do at home. It's worth changing up your coffee going routine to check out this little, slightly out-of-the-way spot. It really feels special when you are in there, and the coffee is truly excellent. I really do highly recommend.

Amazing coffee mojito and sage latte

Great coffee, both traditional drinks and some more interesting creations. Incredible service

New favorite coffee shop in Lawrenceville. Vibes and design are 💯, loved the matcha tonic and will definitely be back again soon!

Great space and great tonic matcha

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!

The finest coffee in the tri-state area. They really step up the coffee game. It's the atmosphere of a coffee shop that you've been yearning for, go capture it!

There is simply nothing like it! If you're in Pittsburgh - this beautiful experience is a must.

The ambience is impeccable! Clean and modern. The sesame latte and the "warm hug" are a must have!
