I am over the moon that the Commonplace has found a home in Pittsburgh!!  As an IUP grad student I was lucky enough to have the \"original\" Commonplace right next door to my office buidling.  I grew to love and appreciate their dedication to good coffee (and I am the nothing clost to being a coffee snob) and I have missed them since leaving Indiana in 2006.  They have a great open space in Squirrel Hill and their staff are still as friendly as I remember.  They have something for everyone: chocolate milk for the kids, tea for the non-coffee drinkers, coffee brewed by the cup, lattes, esspresso and freshly baked treats (get their early, they go fast) from a local bakery.  And, yes, they will serve you coffee in an actual mug if you would like.\n\n\nThank you, TJ (et. all), for making your way to da 'burgh.  I hope you stay for a long time!
