Stopped for a pick me up and fell in love. I wish I could have stayed to eat! The oatmeal was great quality, they don't skimp on the toppings, and the iced tiramisu latte was absolutely amazing! Everyone was very kind and helpful and the whole place was clean and welcoming.

I honestly didn’t know this existed until I did a search for coffee shops near me, but I’m SO glad I found it. They have your usual coffee menu, but with so many more syrup flavors than most coffee shops. They also have a large smoothie menu, flavored lemonades, flavored iced teas, and a pretty large food menu. Most coffee shops have baked goods and maybe a bagel or two, but here you can get breakfast or lunch with a TON of delicious and healthy options. They have a few tables outside and a lot more seating inside than I expected them to have. All of the baristas working are knowledgeable, friendly and kind. If you’re in the North Boros area I highly recommend stopping in for you coffee and breakfast/lunch needs.

Located on California Avenue in Brighton Heights, just a short trip from the North Side, California Coffee Bar is the cutest little neighborhood shop. It’s stocked with delicious bagels, sandwiches, smoothies, milkshakes, bowls, coffee, and other tasty drinks. The vibe is warm and welcoming, with a well-designed interior and plenty of tables if you want to dine in. You can walk in to order, place your order online for pickup, or even get delivery—super convenient! The staff is incredibly friendly and sweet, making the experience even better. I tried a Blueberry Coffee Cake latte from their seasonal menu, and it tasted exactly like a fresh blueberry coffee cake—so good! I also had an Asiago bagel with cream cheese, which was fresh and satisfying. And the Acai Power Bowl was a highlight: a blended puree of frozen acai juice, Greek yogurt, and banana, topped with granola, berries, and dark chocolate shavings. It was both delightful and healthy. You really can’t go wrong here. Whether you’re stopping in for a cozy coffee or grabbing a bite to go, California Coffee Bar is a neighborhood gem worth visiting.

This place is really close to perfect. The menu is great, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the space is wonderful. They have outdoor seating, standard indoor seating, and a lovely back area with desks and high tops and sofas. It's a great place to go for a quick to-go, or to take your computer and spend the afternoon surfing or doing work. Pittsburgh needs more places like this one.

I love this place. Their espresso drinks are amazing; the latte ratio makes for a bold drink which is great if you like the taste of the coffee itself. Sandwiches, smoothies, and bagels are also really good and super affordable. Most importantly, the staff is always friendly without exception. I wouldn’t change anything.

This place is a wonderful new addition to the neighborhood! Great coffee and iced lattes. The baked goods are fresh and tasty and HUGE. I only needed four pastries to feed morning visitors. Staff is beyond - they are super helpful when you have a large order. Highly recommend!

This is my flavafav Sunday breakfast. The staff is super accommodating and friendly. No matter how busy they are my order is always correct and delicious. Yinz rock!

California Coffee should be 5 star rating. I am nearly in this coffee shop everyday and never once I was ever disappointed. All the ladies are nice and always felt an welcoming environment. Their coffee drinks are amazing and prices are reasonable, and cheaper than other places including Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. I will take that any day in my local neighborhood! Usually don't order to many food items but even the few times I did still was a awesome experience.
