Knead Community Cafe - New Kensington (PA)

5 /5 Erika Sokol: Just went here for the first time for a wedding and was literally blown away! They opened the doors to the banquet room and it was like the closet to Narnia i had no idea it was even there it was absolutely beautiful ! Food was delicious, the workers were so sweet and wonderful and friendly. Everything looked beautiful we had a blast!

5 /5 Rebecca D: I found this place randomly when looking for breakfast near a couple breweries. The concept alone is worth the visit, but honestly…come for the food too. This is easily one of the better breakfasts I’ve had. The potatoes were perfectly cooked and seasoned well. The bacon was so thick. We ordered extra under the assumption it would be sad and thin, and ended up full before we even started on the extra bacon. The portions are more than generous for what you pay. There’s a drink station that you can have all you care to enjoy. All of the volunteers are kind and helpful. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

5 /5 Greg: The food is great and the people are are even better! A very interesting concept and wish more like this were around. Mary and all of her helpers are just wonderful! Have her tell you the whole story as to how this place came to be. Please dont pass this place up if youre nearby. And if you dont leave with a smile on your face, theres something wrong.

5 /5 Sammie Ma: What a little slice of heaven! So happy God lead me to this establishment today. Had a wonderful experience and can’t wait to return! Especially for the breaking bread meal! What an amazing place! God bless!

5 /5 Seth Chi: This is a great spot with an awesome mission that they execute very well. They are a pay what you can/ pay it forward cafe. Meaning they help those who have challenges to be able to enjoy a delicious meal and also give those who can afford it a chance to either pay the regular modest price or add more to it to help them with their cause. They have an all volunteer group working and everyone I spoke with was very friendly and helpful. They recognized I didnt know their process as I sat with the menu at my table and talked me through my first visit. You get your menu and are seated at a numbered table. When ready you go up to the counter to order and pay. You also get one drink and one treat included in the price of your meal from the friendly person at the drink/treat counter. As mentioned, they are a volunteer group. If you want to tip or just donate they have a donation box sitting near the register. That is what I did on my first visit. On my second I added an amount to my bill when paying at the register. Both meals were very good. I had the chicken gyro one day with buttered noodles and a cup of Italian wedding soup. The second visit I had the quiche trio with a side salad and another cup of the soup. I greatly enjoyed both meals.
