Black Dog Coffee & Catering

A friendly, do drop in local coffee and scrumptious breakfast for a hugely fair price. Excellent, homespun menu and warm Southeastern hospitality make this a must visit breakfast spot.

I'd been meaning to stop here for years and finally made it in! This is a cute little spot in "downtown" Hollidaysburg. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. I got a latte and the bagel special and both were delicious. Hoping to stop back for lunch sometime when there's a vegetarian option available!

I stopped in here three mornings in a row for caffeine! The first morning I opted for an iced triple shot latte with whole milk. The other two days I had straight coffee - their dark, bold offering.The iced latte was outstanding! Strong, bold, rich espresso flavor married with the icy creaminess of whole milk!The coffee was also solid!There is a decent amount of seating in here to chill and hang out, plus a table or two out front on the sidewalk. It's very cozy inside with lots of dark wood. And free Wifi!And this is the ONLY real coffee shop that I could find in the Altoona area! If you don't come here - you are reduced to either the pseudo Starbucks counter at the Barnes & Noble Bookstore in Altoona, or hitting Dunkin' Donuts, Sheetz, McDonald's, Burger King, etc. for your coffee.Service was friendly! I'll be back to Black Dog next time I am in the area!

Great little coffee shop with friendly service and a perfect cappuccino - patronize this place often if you live nearby!

I love checking out local businesses and trying new things. So I walked into Black Dog Coffee looking forward to seeing what they did well. Granted, it was towards the end of the day. The kitchen had closed, but I was really only there for a caffeine fix. Given the timing, and how long the brewed coffee had likely been sitting around, I decided to go for a double espresso.To the shop's credit, they ground the beans fresh to order. But that's the only good thing I can say about the espresso. It was thin, exceedingly bitter, and had no crema in a matter of moments.Part of the last flaw could have something to do with the fact the shots were poured into a standard coffee mug instead of an espresso cup. But the double espresso was originally going to be poured into a styrofoam to-go cup originally, which wouldn't have helped.It's a shame, because the shop itself is cute with a great window overlooking the street. Maybe there is something better to get there than espresso drinks. So my search for good espresso in the Altoona area continues.

Extremely friendly and great service.The coffee is amazing! They had Banana Nut as a featured coffee and it was very good. Warm cozy feel.

My wife and I had breakfast there . We were very pleased with the service and food! My Greek omelet was amazing. The coffee was excellent. We were a little apprehensive since they just reopened September 28th. They have hit the ground running. Good job Andy!

Very welcoming atmosphere and attitude towards the customers. I had the double cappuccino and it was fantastic also had an omelette with cheese and a cinnamon bagel with cream cheese. Parking is a little hard because it is street parking but as soon as you get parked and in the café to start eating it's a nice place to sit down and have coffee with your friends and catch up.

1st time here moving for a new job, fast service and great coffee! Cheese omelette was extra cheesy and the portions were great!

Husband and I went for breakfast one weekend. The wait staff was super friendly and very helpful with menu suggestions. I has a breakfast wrap and he had the mess. Both were amazing. I heard a gentleman at the next table say his pancakes were the best he's ever had, so I will be heading back to try those. Overall a wonderful experience!
