Food Glorious Food is a neighborhood bakery that makes all foods from scratch and offers breakfast, lunch, sweets, and catering. The menu includes savory foods (e.g., quiches, sandwiches, and pizzas), sweet foods (e.g., cakes, pies, cookies, muffins, and strudels). I was a customer here one time. An employee promptly and kindly greeted me, took my order and payment, and handed over my foods. Some indoor and outdoor seating was available, but I took my foods home. Here are my ratings for them: Sour-cream apple pie - 3.5 stars - This pie was mini-sized. I liked the crust. Neither my husband nor I liked the sour cream. We prefer plain apple. Derby pie - 4.5 stars - This mini pie contained dark chocolate and walnut. I liked the crust and the filling. Pecan pie - 4.5 stars - I liked the crust and the pecan filling of this mini pie. Asparagus-Swiss quiche - 3.5 stars - I bought one slice of this quiche. It tasted alright. Snickerdoodle cookie - 4.5 stars - This snickerdoodle cookie tasted pretty good. Cinnamon roll - 4.5 stars - This cinnamon roll was a large size, and I liked the amount of cinnamon and frosting. The total price was $32. read more

This spot is still so good! Love that they're right in Highland Park. The white lily cake is still such a star here and it's perfectly not too sweet! Staff is super nice here too, we caught them on a baking day and they still let us grab some goodies. The inside is super cute. I definitely need to come here regularly. read more

I am genuinely upset that it took me so long to try this place and their incredible White Lily cake!! To be fair, they're only open Wednesday through Saturday 9:30-2:30 so it can be tough to fit into your schedule but it's worth the effort! We went yesterday and got a few things to share. Everything was delightful but we agreed our favorite sweet item was the White Lily cake slice (it was so lovely and lightly sweet!) and our favorite savory item was the ham and cheese sliders. I also really enjoyed the breakfast bake and the blackberry raspberry coffee cake. The bakery is on the smaller side with only a few small tables but it was empty when we went on Wednesday around noon. It's a cute little spot and the staff was friendly and patient as we picked out our treats. Definitely put this place on your to go list if you haven't been already! read more

This place is my exact kind of vibe. It's small and eclectic. It smells like Heaven as soon as you walk in. I got a savory tart that I brought home and heated up. It was soo good. I wish they were open earlier so I could pop in right after dropping the kids off at school. read more

Sweet aroma matching the palate emanates from this local pastry shop! At this visit I tried the pumpkin muffin, apple stroudle...chocolate cookie for later. The muffin is very good. Great taste of the pumpkin with just enough sugary coat on top. And moist. Apple stroudle has a great natural sweetness of the apples. Well done. Seating is available indoors and just a few outdoors. Very friendly staff!! read more

I have always loved this spot. Pre-pandemic I would go every Friday after work on my way home to get treats for the whole family and it was so fun to pick things out and the gals that worked the counter were THE BEST. The hours are harder now than pre-Covid, but we got to go the other day and it is just as delusions. The folks behind the counter were new, but super sweet and helpful. Honestly, how could anyone be grumpy in a bakery?! My kids each had a pepperoni roll and there were fresh and delicious and then we got an assortment. The younger kid housed the Apple strudel and immediately asked if we could get another one, ha! I have never been disappointed there and love their savory treats just as much as the sweet ones. It's a treasure. read more

Great cakes pies pastries cookies. Cozy spot for local lunch. Rita the hostess is friendly and helpful.

Gotta admit this is one of my favorite bakeries in Pittsburgh. Located right in the heart of Highland Park, this bakery is easily accessible by bus, car, or on foot. You can smell the delicious baked goods before you even walk in, making your taste buds dance right away. I've been there a few times now and they have varying baked goods, but a lot consistent ones also. The first time I went I got the cannoli, lemon bar, and a buckeye to split with some friends Oh my they were DELICIOUS!! Next time I went I got a cinnamon roll because I herd they were legendary....and they so were! I studied for the first time in there a few weeks ago and it was okay. It got pretty loud since it's a small sitting area. But, I'll still go back! read more

The white lilly cake is an absolute dream it is so light and refreshing. Not too sweet. A perfect cake, in my opinion. I also grabbed a pepperoni roll and a potato tart while I was there to pick up the cake. Sooooo good! Service was excellent and everyone was very friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Fabulous, I met a friend for coffee and was surprised at the delicious quiche and baked goods. I'll definitely be back soon.

**Had to update because it's been a while... Can I give a business 6/5 stars? Because I TOTALLY would for this place. I am obsessed. Being that Food Glorious Food is just a ten minute drive from my work, it's a miracle I'm not here everyday. The warmth you feel when you walk into the bakery, the fact that there are no prices or name cards on the food items, the cozy warm decor- all these little details make you feel like you are at a family member's home, rather than a bakery. Every time I go, I buy multiple items and it's really hard to contain myself. This most recent visit, I purchased: a slice of key lime pie (my FAVORITE in the world), three cupcakes for a friend's birthday (lemon basil- OUT OF THIS WORLD, blackberry- absolutely incredible, and raspberry chocolate hazelnut- basically raspberry and nutella, it was so delicious), two ham & cheese sandwiches (heated them up for breakfast the next morning- so incredibly delicious), a chocolate chip cookie (for Brendan- he loved it), some baked potato cheesy goodness (it had a cheese sauce that was insanely good, bacon, asparagus.. so good), and a tray of unbaked cinnamon rolls! Why would I buy unbaked cinnamon rolls? Their cinnamon rolls are the BEST I have ever had. They had some at the store, but they run out quick. If that ever happens when you visit, and you don't mind buying four at a time and making them at home, it's totally worth it. One of the owners was kind enough to write the directions onto the box and I was able to make them this past Sunday morning for breakfast with my family. They turned out perfect, and were incredible. This is hands down my favorite bakery in the world and one of my favorite foodie places to go to, period. I am obsessed. P.S. Since I now have decided to follow them on every social network possible, I have discovered they now serve LUNCH. I am going immediately. YUM. read more

Can we just all bask in the beautiful of this creation? A chocolate tulip - with chocolate ganache, strawberries, and whipped cream. But the surprise?Chocolate cake at the bottom! Bravo, FGF. Besides this stunner, please do yourself a favor and get a ham sandwich. You won't be disappointed. read more

An exceptionally good bakery with treats that will leave you wanting more. I recently sampled a variety of their baked goods for the first time and I was not disappointed. Amazing flavorful pepperoni rolls, rich moist cakes and cookies that melt in your mouth. Savory or sweet at Food Glorious Food, you're always in for a delectable treat! read more

I was a tad disappointed after the rave reviews I received about this bakery - though perhaps the food wasn't as good because I came in late afternoon. The savory food was bland and not heated well. We ordered Chicken broccoli alfredo and the Chicken brioche. The desserts were quite nice - the cakes were moist, light and fluffy. The decor and ambience of the cafe was lovely. read more

I visited Food Glorious Food the Sat. before last at around 10:30am. I was waiting to be seated for brunch at E2 next door with some friends, and one of them suggested that we swing by the bakery next door. This reminded me that that bakery was Food Glorious Food, which I'd been meaning to check out for a long while, so I eagerly agreed and we headed next door. Having read the previous Yelp reviews, I knew that the cinnamon roll was a popular item. Give that I'm always on the hunt for good cinnamon rolls--of which there seem to be precious few in PGH--I got one of them ($2) as well as a chocolate chip cookie ($2), which the guy working the counter told me was another popular seller. I had the cinnamon roll later that day, and it was pretty good, although not the best I've had in PGH. It had a decent amount of both cinnamon and icing, and the dough was soft and pliable. I tried the cookie the next day, and it was quite delicious--possibly the best one I've had to date in PGH. It was a decent size and has a decent balance between crispness and softness. Most importantly, however, it had copious chocolate chips that melted in my mouth, which (for me) is an essential component of a legit chocolate chip cookie. Based on the goods I sampled, I'd rank Food Glorious Food within the upper quartile of PGH bakeries. Unfortunately, I'm leaving PGH soon, but if I wasn't, I'd definitely love to stop by again to sample their key lime pie, as I'm a big fan of that dessert. 4.5 stars. read more

Every so often, I hear rumblings about how great this bakery is. Highland Park is a bit out of my way, but after leaving the zoo, it seemed like the perfect time to test this place out. My friend and I came in around 3:30 on a Saturday, and they had clearly been busy all day. There really was not much left. I ordered a cheesecake brownie ($2), and she got two key-lime macarons ($2.25). We both enjoyed our desserts, and while they were far above average, they were not THE best. However, the people in Highland Park are spoiled because they were quite good. I suspect you need to get here at opening to try the popular items. The store front is cute if you want to eat in, and there is one bench outside. Additionally, they appear to accept credit! Not sure if there was a minimum. read more

"Food, glorious food! Don't care what it looks like...Just thinking of growing fat.." sings Oliver from the musical. Yep you got it. They named this place after this song. Stopped over here after lunch to grab a dessert. Most of the desserts I have seen before but they had a few different ones for me to try. They are a bakery but they only sell desserts, wedding cakes, and various quiches. I purchased a spinach and mushroom quiche to take home with me for my next day's lunch. It must have been popular-it smelled so good when I got it home. Can't wait to taste it! I'm sure I'm going to love it. They had small whole pies along with what they call a great chocolate chip cookie. I bought that for my daughter and got a nice slice of apple streusel. The crust on that thing was flaky and soft. They do give you generous portions for the price you pay. They do offer a nice assortment of desserts. I decided to try something a little different while I was there which was called a signature white lily cake. I later learned they use this same batter for wedding cakes. I had it and found that it was not too rich but light enough for me to enjoy after a heavy meal. They have a small sitting area in front if you wish to eat it there. Some of the desserts require refrigeration. Others don't but make sure you wrap them if you intend to eat them later. Since I had arrived later in the day the breakfast pastries were gone but I'm sure if I return at an earlier time of day they would be worth a try. Street parking is available. This place is off the beaten path but well worth the visit. "Why should we be fated to brood on ... beautiful, magical, food, glorious, food!" Beats gruel any day! read more

After having had Food Glorious Food cake at someone else's wedding, I knew this cake would be showing up at our wedding. The cake was fantastic - the white lily cake layers and the carrot cake. The team made up a fantastic naked cake with a light crumb coat of whipped cream icing and enough sheet cakes for the entire lot of 100 guests. They even improvised a little botanical cake topper and acquired greens separately for decorating. It was really, really lovely. And absolutely delicious as well. Man, was it tasty. Wedding reviews will tell you that communication with FGF can be a bit unpredictable, and that was true in our case as well. But just like all the other reviews, everything also went off flawlessly in the end. Thank you, Tom & team! read more

My sister and I were walking her dog when she told me about the cinnamon rolls at Food Glorious Food. She said that they were incredible but that they sold out really quickly after the store opened. We happened to walk past the store at 10:15 AM (the store opened at 10 that day), so we decided to try our luck. We arrived just in time, and we managed to snag the very last cinnamon roll (at least at the moment; maybe they make more later, but I'm not sure). We also got three macarons: one blue velvet, one PB&J, and one salted caramel. All of these items totaled to $9, which I think it a pretty good deal. The cinnamon roll was outstanding. It was soft, buttery, and perfectly sweet. All of the macarons were top notch too. They had thin, crispy shells with a chewy inside and subtle but still very recognizable (and tasty) fillings. If you are in the Highland Park area, you should absolutely treat yourself to the delicious baked goods at Food Glorious Food. read more

Some of the best desserts you'll ever taste can be found here, and you can feel like you've discovered a city secret in the process. This is because the shop opens only Saturdays at 10 am, and you will usually spot a line forming at 9:30. They stay open until they sell out, which is usually around noon. It's like a magical place that opens for a brief period of time, then disappears as fast as it appeared. Anyways, as for the desserts, they feature at wide selection of tarts, cakes, and other types of pastries. All of them look mouth-watering delicious. One of the cakes won some sort of award...I had this and a few other kinds as well, and they were all phenomenal. They used an addictive whipped cream type of "frosting" for their cakes, and all of this deliciousness can be had at completely reasonable prices. I've always wondered why they only open Saturday morning though, and what they do during the week. Even if you're not in the area, it's worth arriving at 9:30 to experience the novelty and cool experience of this strange, tiny, and wonderful dessert shoppe! read more

Cookies glorious cookies! Cupcakes glorious cupcakes! Pie glorious pie! Okay, I'll stop now. But for real, the baked good here are legit. My husband has picked up goodies here on a few different occasions recently, and I'm so happy that this bakery is now on my radar. I may have found a new favorite in their huge, chewy chocolate chip cookie. Their cupcakes are moist, flavorful, and topped with a light whipped frosting that isn't too sickly sweet. And even though I don't love pie (don't get me wrong -- I don't hate pie, but in my baked goods family, pie will always be the least favorite child), I thought the derby pie I had here was nothing short of divine. They also sell non-dessert things as well that I would love to try. Overall, this place definitely lives up to its name! read more

Totally insane pastries and assorted baked goods. Selection is intense, it's really hard to decide what to devour. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Place is small, not much seating so take out is recommended. The second you leave this place you will be plotting your return...it's addictive read more

My delicious local bakery. I stop every now and then on my way home just for a chocolate chip cookie because they are so good. Crispy/chewy edges and nice soft middle, with huge chocolate chips. I like pretty much everything I've tried here. Their lemon tart is really good with a strong lemon flavor. The ham sandwiches are amazing. Ham and cheese in a soft bun with onions and poppy seeds. Mmmm. I love their Derby pie, especially around Derby season, though it's good all the time. Their pumpkin roll slices are huge and can definitely be cut into 2-4 little slices. Their white lily cake is moist and the raspberries are fresh. I like the tulip: a chocolate bowl filled with mousse, cake and fruit. The cheesecake brownies are covered in a super rich chocolate ganache that I love. The macarons are all right. I think the cookie is a little crispier than it should be so kind of breaks apart, but the flavors are good. I also wish they had labels with each dessert. I recognize things I've gotten before but still feel like I need to ask the person what things are all the time. They have a little chalkboard with a list of things but it's not right near the case so it doesn't help a ton. I like that you can see them working and making things in the back, and it always smells delicious from things baking. It feels like a bakery, and not just a place that sells baked goods. You can eat there, though they don't have many tables, or take your order to go. They have limited days they are open, which is a bummer. There is always a line on Saturdays when they first open but it usually goes quickly. They might sell out of things, but sometimes it's worth going later in the day just to avoid the crowd and have more time to browse. read more

Food Glorious Food - Lemon tart with blueberries. - Bakeries Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I have never had the compulsion to write a Yelp review before, as my tolerance level is high, but my experience was inexcusable. I have ordered every birthday cake in my family from this establishment since before the current owners purchased the store from the previous owners. Twice, in this one week, I have called and been told that they couldn't make me a birthday cake for my husband simply by leaving out two ingredients: walnuts and raisins. The first time was understandable--they were closed and weren't able to make me the cake (even though they made an exception and made it for me on a closed day last year. But the second time I called back, I was simply told "no" and that I "didn't understand their processes well enough." When I asked for the woman to explain the processes to me, she hung up on me! I wasn't being rude, but I was being persistent, because it didn't make sense. When I called back and sked for the owner, I received a lot of the same, but a lot of shouting at me as well. In addition, he blamed COVID for the inability to make single carrot cake, but with the next breath he said that if it had been another cake, he would have been able. I tried to explain, as I did with the TWO customer service people before him, that I had been buying every birthday cake the exact same way for nearly ten years, and that all I was trying to do was understand WHY leaving out two ingredients caused problems (I had previously even offered to pay DOUBLE for the cake!)--but by then, he had taken the same tack as his precious person--and hung up on me. If you're reading this, Food Glorious Food, I will never, ever recommend you to the hundreds of people I do each year, and instead, I will discourage them from buying from you, and I certainly will never purchase from you either. If you must blame COVID for your food offerings, that's one thing, but when someone is simply asking questions to understand, COVID is not to blame for your lack of manners and poor customer service. You've just lost a customer for life, and I'll make it my mission to discourage others from purchasing from you in the future as well. I sincerely hope it was worth it to you. read more

Utterly fabulous- the best bakery experience in the Tri-State! HANDS DOWN! It's truly very hard for me to drive anywhere around or through highland park without stopping and making to get something delicious from these folks. I'm always telling people to cut it out with the other bakeries in the East End and just go to Food glorious Food. I can never understand why anyone would get baked treats from anywhere else. read more

What a,perfect,name for this place! I needed something sweet, and as I was riding up the street on my bike, this looked like a great place for a quick snack. Small, but nice, with tables out front. Right beside E2 an eatery I need to try sometime soon. I had an apple strudel that was very well done, and just right. BUT! The best thing I had was this amazing home made Nutella pop tart!!!!! It was incredible! I could have eaten a few of them! Such a simple idea, and yet it was amazing! I sat out front, relaxed, and enjoyed a little break. I will be back! Service was good even though the place was very busy with a bunch of seemed to be hung over patrons taking up all the room at the counter. The women who waited on me came around to the side to wait on me so I didn't have to wait. good move, good service! Great place! read more

We have gone to this bakery for every birthday and brunch in my memory. Yesterday my husband ordered and paid for a fruit tart for my birthday. The business failed to deliver. Today, they refused to give us a fruit tart. In fact the manager or owner told me to "get over it" and hung up on me. Really sad to say this is not a friendly neighborhood business. Would recommend strongly going elsewhere! read more

I walk by this place every Wednesday, and until today I had never poked my head inside. I was super hungry, it's raining, and the store smells SO GOOD, so I couldn't resist. The person helping me was super patient and nice while I asked about basically everything in the case (checking for gelatin, you know). Also, they take credit card! Anyway I settled on a pumpkin roll, which was amazing. First, the slices are huge. Second, the ratio of cream cheese frosting to cake is high, but I love it like that. Third, the flavor overall was perfect, not too sweet. Can't wait until next Wednesday! read more

The first time I came here, I waited in line for 20 minutes. When it was my turn, I realized I left my wallet in the car. It hurt so bad, I didn't come back for a year. I can walk to this place from my house- which is dangerous because those biscuits are just OH SO DREAMY. I can't describe them. Just get some. Do I feel guilty about noshing on fabulous Strawberry Napoleons and Jewish Pizza (kind of like a modified, yet TOTALLY delicious fruitcake bar) at 10:15am? Hecks, naw... But they do have quiche and some other breakfast-y items for those who prefer a more traditional approach to your stomach's opening ceremony. Just go early :) They open at 10 on Saturdays. And bring cash...it's easier that way. read more

I can't even. Perfectly delicious food, reminds me of a true French bakery. Delectable cakes, pastries, chocolatey things, as well as savory quiches, breads, and their signature little marinated ham sammies. I used to be a regular here on Saturday mornings and would spend $20-30 bc I'd get 4-5 things to last me through the week. Ha! That never worked out. It lasted about 3 days. The last time I went, the person working the counter was really unfriendly. But hey, maybe they're trying to really nail that French bakery vibe :) No matter, the baked goods redeemed this cranky lady. read more

Great place. Easily the best in the city. Open on Saturday from 10am till sold out and there will usually be a line out the door. They will also take orders for things during the week but in whole sizes only (not slices, etc).

Highly rated. read more

Extraordinary food, wonderful people. The strata is to die for. Two layers of croissant with whipped eggs, sausage, peppers, and mushrooms inside, baked to a savory deliciousness. Every pastry, pie, sandwich, bun, biscuit, and cake I have ever tried from Food Glorious Food has knocked my socks off. The soft Biscotti, I know as Jewish pizza, is full of nuts and dried fruit that are the perfect balance of sweet and delicious. The white lily cake The must have items on the menu for me are the chocolate chip cookies, the cheesecake brownies, and of course the strata and biscuits. But no choice is a bad choice when it comes to this place. There are tables and chairs inside that are miss-matched and perfectly quaint. Food Glorious Food is wonderfully comfortable and inviting. The first time you go, you will have to ask what everything is, but the employees at the counter are more than happy to describe each delectable option in the case. You can call in or stop by to order anything on the menu for pick-up to really impress your friends. Around the Holidays they provide their options and pricing for cakes, pies, and specialty items! Going to Food Glorious Food for their Saturday Bakery is by far the best way to start any weekend. read more
