Redhawk Coffee
1019 N Canal St, Pittsburgh, PA
Crema's Take
“This cozy Pittsburgh spot has built genuine community around expertly crafted espresso and pour overs, with baristas like Caleb, Matt, and Michael who remember regulars and treat every shift like they're welcoming friends. The real magic here is how the coffee quality, killer breakfast sandwiches, and the staff's infectious warmth combine to create a place where people actually want to linger and return—it's the kind of neighborhood coffee shop that feels like it's been part of your life longer than it actually has.”

Such a cute place with delicious goods and filled with the sweetest people. Real community vibes!
Coffee is superb. Breakfast sandwiches are delicious, albeit a bit spicy. Service is quite engaging, friendly and efficient. Atmosphere is quite comfortable with multiple areas to eat and drink, including outside, rather than a large open space. Clientele are also quite friendly and engaging. Parking is easy.
From the barista‘s, to the coffee, to the food; This place exudes nothing but high-quality and positivity. Caleb, Matt and Michael are just a handful of the beautiful names and faces I’ve gotten to know in the short time I’ve been coming here, and each one of them carries themselves with so much positivity and grace, that the extraordinary coffee is merely a sideshow. If I could give more stars, I’d give these people and their coffee an entire galaxy’s worth.
Great experience, all around! First time to Red Hawk, and I can say I would recommend and will return! Lots of options to eat and drink - some packaged, some hot, some pastry. The burritos are wonderful and the coffee was exceptionally made and tasted wonderful. The staff was friendly and you could tell everyone knows everyone around here. Free Wi-Fi was great, and plenty of area to sit and work. Parking is on-street and metered outside. Worth the visit; check it out!
Long overdue. Been coming to Redhawk since they opened. Their coffee is good, but the staff and vibe are what makes it. Every single day each of their staff (I could individually name them but everyone is so great) makes each of us feel welcomed. The place where you are greeted with a smile. They know your order, but can also make great recommendations. The furniture has changed through the years but it remains a welcoming place whether you are alone, having a meeting or with a group. Really something for everyone on the menu. Outdoor seating too! Redhawk also makes themselves a part of the community - helping out, having events etc. One of the best places to find other small businesses/vendors through their popups on the weekends. They set the standard for making people feel welcomed. So yes their coffee, other drinks and food are great (as are their unique merchandise/food/coffee for home) but they are so much more.
