Crema's Take

“Nestled on Pittsburgh's North Side, this wonderfully eclectic spot seamlessly blends a specialty coffee counter with a carefully curated record store, creating a genuinely cool hangout where you can sip excellent cold brew while browsing vinyl with knowledgeable, unhurried staff. The vibe is unmistakably laid-back and welcoming—dog-friendly, wifi-equipped, and filled with the kind of personality you won't find in typical coffee chains, making it perfect whether you're meeting a friend, settling in with your laptop, or hunting for that rare record you've been searching for. Jeff and Bob clearly pour genuine care into both the coffee and the curation, resulting in a space that feels more like a beloved community gathering place than a business.”

Such a fantastic spot on Pittsburgh’s North Side! If you’re into records, this needs to be your next stop. Jeff and Bob are always incredibly helpful and take the time to answer every question. Huge kudos to an awesome local and family-owned business! 👏👏👏

The coolest place!! Must check out if on the Northside. It is a sick record store and bar with Kinder Being Coffee attached. Dog friendly, awesome staff, and chill vibes!🤘🏻

A great shopping experience. The selection was good and even my 7yr old enjoyed searching through and finding some to take home. Nice to grab a good coffee also - the cold brew was excellent!
