North Side no longer caffeine free, grouchy
Long-awaited coffeehouse opens tomorrow.
Lines of jittery residents are expected to form outside Beleza Community Coffeehouse (1501 Buena Vista St., North Side) hours before their 8 p.m. opening tomorrow night (UPDATE: Actually, it opened at 8 a.m., contrary to what was written in a Beleza email forwarded to Dish. Sorry for any confusion). Even if you don't reside on the North Side of Pittsburgh, imagine not having a take-out coffee/breakfast joint for miles. It's uncivilized.
But no more. The little peacenik coffee shop, located on the corner of Buena Vista and Jacksonia street in the Mexican Streets neighborhood, will offer Peace Coffee, Rishi Tea, Jones Soda, Sabio Springs Water and juices. They will also serve goodies from local bakers, bagels, toast and fresh fruit.
Business hours will be 6 a.m.-5 p.m. M-F; 8 a.m.-8 p.m. on Saturdays; 8a.m.-4 p.m. on Sundays.
North Side residents thank you from the bottom of their empty cups. Welcome.

I traveled from North Carolina for the weekend and found this excellent coffee shop, due to a recommendation from Karl at the "boutique" Inn down the street.
I'm a coffeeshop junkie, and the place is great. Espresso--good. Foam for lattes--perfect. Now, where's their web site? Link-love can't hurt.

In the Brighton Heights section of the Northside is a really nice somewhat new coffeehouse on California Ave. It is called the Vault. We too have been deprived of coffee for a long time.
