Our Coffee

Every coffee we sell is roasted fresh, in small batches, the way it has been since 1919. Six families of coffee — one standard.

Quick Answer

Nicholas Coffee & Tea Co. roasts six families of coffee in Pittsburgh: blends, dark roasts, decaf, flavored coffees, single origins, and a rotating roaster's choice. Everything is roasted fresh and available in-store in Market Square or shipped from the online shop.
