Klvn Coffee Lab

Hidden Gem FR. Fav cafe in PGH so far.Had the most delicious strawberry matcha I've had here- on the sweeter end which is what I like. Rivals what I've had in LA. Aesthetic is beautiful, modern, wood, artsy vibe that really puts you in a locked in mood. Quiet and ambient. Feels local and homey.Found seats immediately, lots of 2 person seaters- hard for bigger groups to study. Wish they ran just like an hour later but def a great place for morning/afternoon grinding. Friendly staff.

My top 3 favorite cafes to study at. Drinks are great, highly recommend the dandelion hot chocolate. Their seasonal specials always impress as well. Staff is super nice and friendly. The ambiance is also beautiful. I really love their interior design and the open space, and you really can't find another cafe like this in Pittsburgh. One of my favorite details is their collection of clay cups. Only thing is tables are a bit small. Parking is also convenient, with plenty of free Street parking space. Overall, my go to place to study on a weekday.

Wife and I were in town for the weekend and wanted to try a local coffee shop. KLVN Coffee Lab did not disappoint. The location is split between the roasting side and more of the coffee shop side. It has a modern coffee shop aesthetic. The barista was friendly taking orders and the coffee came out in a timely manner. The coffee was delicious and the avocado toast exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!!!

I stopped by here a couple of Sundays ago with my wife and twins for our morning coffees. Every Sunday we try to hit up a local coffee shop and on this day it happened to be Klvn Coffee Labs turn. This actually wasn't our first visit to Klvn and I was happy to be in the area to visit it again. The first thing that I noticed on both of my visits here was the giant coffee roaster. It's always good to see and gives you a great idea that you will be getting fresh roasted coffee. Besides that everything is industrial feeling with concrete floors and then lots of wood furniture. They have plants hanging from the ceiling as well and both times that I was here I got a major hipster vibe. For our coffees on this morning, I went with a latte and added the nihilistic caramel while my wife went a latte and added the honey syrup. My coffee here ended up tasting quite fresh and I really enjoyed it. The flavor of the coffee was front and center which I loved but I was a little disappointed in the caramel flavor. However once I made it about three quarters of the way through my cup it was apparent why. At that point I started getting a super strong flavor of caramel which was quite tasty. Apparently it hadn't integrated so well into the drink and while I wish it had, I did enjoy drinking the last little bit which was almost pure caramel. My wife enjoyed her latte her and the flavor and touch of sweetness that the honey added to her coffee.The bottom line is that I would stop back here again in the future. I have enjoyed my flavored lattes on both of my visits here and would like to try some of their other stuff as well.

Update:Used to be a regular here, but haven't been coming in for some time as the coffee shop isn't what it used to be. The quality of beans has gone down. My pour overs at home haven't been the same using the beans from there the past couple of purchases. Also, going in for an iced Americano has been a hit or miss. Really have to check who's in that day to commit to getting a drink from there.

The best light roast coffee in the city. I've been a recurring customer at KLVN for years, and they consistently put out great light roasts. I have not had a bad one yet. Its arguably my favorite cafe as well given the aesthetic. I love the stoneware mugs, the furniture, the openness of the shop. To note, it never necessarily seems quiet if you're going to get work done or study (if that's something that matters to you, it doesn't to us). I will always get their bagged coffee as well (a bit on the pricey side, but the highest quality). 10/10 coffee and shop, and it's my first recommendation for anyone who wants to dip their toe into light roasts.

Very spacious and nice ambiance to chat with friends or work. We had a cappuccino and cold brew which were both yummy. Cold brew was very clean and hardly bitter. I would definitely come back to do more work or catch up with friends.

Brought a couple friends to Klvn earlier this week. I always love coming here and this visit was no different. The atmosphere is so unique and refreshing and my friends loved it. We ordered 2 matcha lattes with vanilla and 1 hot chocolate for my non-coffee friend. It was difficult to find seating during a busy weekend afternoon but we managed to find 3 seats. The drink-ware is so cool and the ceramic/clay cups add such a nice touch. The staff was so nice and ordering was a breeze. All of us really enjoyed our drinks and my non coffee friend tried my latte and I think we have converted them into a matcha latte fan! I seriously think this is the best place in Pittsburgh for a matcha latte. Can't wait to come back and it's a perfect spot for studying or catching up with friends.

Great coffee. Not the place if you're into seasonal specialty flavors but if you like to get the same drink every time and know it'll be high quality- this is an amazing option. Nice service.

Am I the only one who was shocked by the size of their to-go cup? They only offer one size and it is literally a child's restaurant size cup that I finished in two seconds. Please get adult sized cups.
