Autumn is upon us, and the cooler weather makes it the perfect time to cozy up with a cup of joe. Fortunately, Downtown Pittsburgh is full of vibrant coffee houses, both old and new. These shops play a large role in fostering community, creating a sense of home and routine. From business deals to catching up with friends, coffee shops are a pillar in any urban environment.

The Strip District is a known cultural hub in the Pittsburgh region. Since its beginning, one street consisted of diverse grocers and restaurants harmoniously sharing sidewalks.
