Dragon's Roast Cafe
398 Perry Hwy, Pittsburgh, PA
Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Pittsburgh, this board game-friendly café is where coffee craftsmanship meets community gathering—the proprietor hand-makes signature syrups and hot honey that elevate creative drinks like the Kukulkan Iced Latte (complete with ganache and marshmallow) into memorable experiences. The impressive menu spans from traditional espresso drinks to imaginative seasonal creations, all served in a welcoming space where you can grab a game off the shelf and settle in with fellow coffee lovers and gaming enthusiasts. It's the rare spot that nails both the craft beverage side and the human side, making it feel less like a transactional coffee run and more like visiting a friend's favorite hangout.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks.
