This was my first time ordering from Grandview bakery and is hands down, best bakery ever!! I talked with Sarah, who was amazing to work with, about a custom cake for my mother in law's birthday party. I wanted a coffee theme decorated cake with coconut cake and icing. It surpassed my expectations. It looked absolutely beautiful and exactly what I had in mind. The coconut flavored cake, with coconut flavored buttercream icing was to die for. It was a huge hit with everyone at the party. The prices are great too. Thank you all so much and we'll be back soon!! read more

Family friendly, kind staff! Spent our Valentine's Day with the folks at Grandview and were treated to the most delicious sweets in the BURGH! read more

Confession: sometimes I stop here after (or in the middle) of my Saturday run to gorge myself on donuts. Counter-productive? My scale says "yes," but my mouth says "shut up scale." You see, I cannot pass up a donut with a breakfast cereal topping and Grandview bakery makes fruity pebble topped donuts that are to die for! The donut is soft and chewy and the fruity pebbles are sweet and crunchy and it's everything you could ever dream of. The cupcakes are also really yummy. They have a few fun and funky flavors like "maple bacon" and "Swedish fish". But I think their plain vanilla and vanilla almond really shine! Grandview Bakery also has a pretty decent selection of baking/candy making supplies. I always stop here when I need melting chocolate. So glad this is in my neighborhood! read more

I am amazed at the customer service and quality that my friend and I experienced from Grandview Bakery. After calling all around Pittsburgh in February, my friend was told no one makes fruit tart desserts in the winter. However, Grandview was kind and said they could do it! My friend brought me this dessert for my 23rd birthday and it was amazing. It's everything I want in a cake. Delicious, moist, flavorful, beautiful! Thank you so much! read more

Friendly wait staff. Fresh baked deserts. 1/2 a block away from a world class view. What more can you ask for. Lemon bar = excellent! Peanut butter iced brownie = amazing! Eclair = good Lady locks = ok After all that the bill was around $7. Do yourself a favor. If you eat dinner on Mount Washington skip out on desert at the restaurant and grab some here. You won't be sorry. read more

Darrin and the Grandview Bakery team made my wedding cake. It was not only beautiful - exactly what I had hoped for - but also completely delicious. We went for a subtle almond flavored white cake with raspberry jam and cream cheese cream layers. Light, not too sweet, and the perfect consistency. Our guests loved it. I also adored Grandview (and Darrin) for their unpretentiousness. Grandview is a local bakery rooted in community, and it shows. Everyone who works there is so kind and down to earth. It represents the best of Pittsburgh - that close knit community feeling that only people who grew up in the Burgh can put their finger on. The cakes and other baked goods speak for themselves, but the people make this place just as much as the desserts. Thank you Darrin and team - we're so grateful and can't wait to come back. read more

From the small selection, it still was a lot. I couldn't decide. So we got 6 different choices. My fav was the Burnt Almond Cupcake, incredible! Greg's fav was the peanut butter brownie, intense! Good service, very attentive, nice, shy young lady that gave me her all time favorite, B.A.C. She had a mask on and wore gloves the entire time. We felt very comfortable. +Great prices! Went next door grabbed a fancy beer, Brainless on Cherries Belgian Style Ale- great pairing. Over all Wonderful Birthday. read more

First off, let's ask the question, is it possible to not like a bakery? From my point of view if you make something sweet for someone they are bound to end up liking it. There are however some things to consider about the quality, freshness and taste of baked sweets. I have always enjoyed donuts and confectionary treats from this bakery. The product is fresh, soft and full of flavor every time. I have never really had a complaint about anything that I purchased. The people that work here are pleasant and helpful. I would also say that the variety is very high, especially for a small bakery. Last time I was there I really couldn't decide what to get. That really makes it worth while to go to a local bakery. You will find something new each time and it will be an amazing taste experience. read more

My partner and I went out to explore the Mt. Washington area of Pittsburgh. We stumbled upon this quaint little pastry shop. There were so many amazing things to try. It was very hard to decide on what exactly to try. We settled on the White chocolate strawberry cupcake. It was surprisingly moist, bursting with a strawberry whipped icing, and topped with white chocolate. As we shared this cupcake to our surprise there was a strawberry creme filling. Also, we purchased the peanut butter brownie, and a large lady finger. The staff were amazing as were their treats. Many of their items are made fresh daily. We will definitely keep the Grandview bakery on our list of places for our sweet treats. read more

Today we had a birthday party for my son's third birthday. The cake was SO cute- a perfect pirate cake- he was so excited. Beyond that, the cake was delicious! Frankly, I'm not a cake person and I ate all of mine up. The cake was tasty and moist and the buttercream was to die for. We often go to this place for the great iced cookies, but now it looks like it's our cake place too! Nice, helpful staff as well! Great selection of awesome stuff! read more

My favorite bakery. Almost tried everything here, they never let me down. It is unlike many other bakeries that dump a pound of sugar in their desert. This place really know what are they doing right now. Actually we like this place so much and got our wedding cake here. They did not let us down. We were really happy with the result. They mixed two type of cake flavor and decorated exactly the way I wanted. Highly recommend for anybody that lives close by and drive by to check it out! Definitely worth the try! read more

Literally stood waiting and got ignored by all staff! Walked out with nothing and saved my money! Do not recommend.

I went there today during COVID masks on phase. The woman who was serving me pulled down her mask three times and kept touching her face. I had to refuse the order if they are not taking masks seriously. I hope they get their act together, cause they were great before. read more

This Bakery is AMAZING! My boyfriend bought me a cake from here 2 years ago and I've been hooked ever since. They did this cake for my cousin's 40th birthday, and I couldn't have been more pleased. The customer service is great and the baked goods are EVERYTHING! If you need a cake for something special--call them first. Brandy and Mandy did the work on this cake. (Half sheet, 2 layers, butter cream and chocolate, with butter cream filling in the middle. read more

I asked my daughter to pickup a birthday cake for her Dad. I thought she would go to one of the big grocery stores in her area (Gibsonia). However, she went to the Grandview Bakery and came here with a "vanilla burnt almond torte". She preferred to patronize a local bakery. What a wonderful surprise! It was so delicious! She commented on how friendly and helpful the man who waited on her was. Thank you for making his 70th birthday special! read more

Can barely ever just get one item. The donuts and cupcakes are my weakness but I've tried lots of other great items as well. Always a great variety and good service. They also just recently started serving a variety of coffee styles which is really nice. read more

So many cookies and baked goods to choose from! I almost went for the cupcakes as they looked so good in the case (especially the carrot cake one)- but I ended up with the thumbprints- delicious! I had the one with the jam and also the chocolate one. So good that I went back for seconds! A good stop for breaks while you walk around Mt. Washington! read more

this place has amazing food (especially the lemon bars) and quick service for reasonable prices!

I visited Grandview Bakery for the first time for a Yelp event that they held last Thurs. Given that I rarely make it up to Mt. Washington, I intended to visit during Fourth of July, which was the last time I happened to be in this neighborhood. However, they closed early that day (can't say I blame them!), so I was unable to do so then, hence my first visit being last week. During the event, I took advantage of my visit, and purchased the following items: mini cherry cheesy cake, triple chocolate cupcake, and peanut butter brownie ($7 and change, together). I consumed these items within 48 hrs. of my visit, and they were all very good in quality. The cheesy cake was quite moist in texture and was the least sweet of the items, so it's a great option for someone with less of a sweet tooth. The chocolate cupcake was also moist, though not as much so as the cheesy cupcake, and is great for the extreme chocolate lover. It consisted of a chocolate cupcake filled with light chocolate buttercream frosted with a dark chocolate icing with a milk chocolate drizzle and chocolate sprinkles. The peanut butter brownie was my favorite of the bunch. It was massive, and had loads of peanut butter icing topped with roasted nuts. This brownie is ideal for those who enjoy peanut butter and chocolate together in their desserts. One of the most unique aspects about this bakery is that, in addition to a counter showcasing baked goods and cakes, it contains a large section devoted to baking supplies for the home baker. Whether you are interested in chocolate making, cake decorating, or cookie baking, you can find many--if not all--of the supplies that you need to perfect your craft right here! The prices seem pretty reasonable and competitive with those of chain craft stores (AC Moore, Michael's, etc.), so this is a great alternative for those of us who live in the city and don't want to have to travel into the suburbs to purchase baking supplies. It is also worth noting that this bakery offers baking classes, as well as a party room that can be used for events such as bridal or baby showers. All of the employees, as well as the owner, were pleasant to interact with during my visit, and seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs and have a passion for what they do. They seem very willing to work with customers to provide them with a satisfying product, too. If I were planning an event that required a cake, I would definitely consider purchasing one from this bakery. Having tried around half of the bakeries in PGH, I'd rank Grandview in the top 25%. Thus, I hereby approve Grandview Bakery as Bakery Queen of Pittsburgh! 4.5 stars. read more

I live within a 5 minute walk of Grandview Bakery... And that's very dangerous. Everything I have tried has been delicious. I personally love the red velvet cupcakes. The icing is just so good! They also have great breakfast pastries and coffee in the mornings. I also recently tried an apple coffee cake that was delicious! I've honestly never tried anything I haven't liked. They are reasonably priced, have a huge selection, and I never leave disappointed. The only reason I knocked off one star is because I tried to contact them via email about a cake for my wedding, and they never responded. I'm sure I could have gone in and found someone in person to talk to about it, but that's besides the point, in my opinion. Don't put an email address out there as an option if you're not going to respond. That's just bad customer service. Nonetheless, this is a great bakery and a great addition to Mt. Washington! read more

The biggest issue I have with this place is that it is around the corner from my house which makes it dangerously close. It is impossible to keep a diet when one of Pittsburgh's greatest bakeries is close by. They have great cakes, cookies and doughnuts for all occasions. Their prices are perfect in my opinion a dozen doughnuts for under $12 when every single doughnut is a ride on a unicorn to Damnthatsgoodland. Their Oreo doughnuts are to die for as are every single one of their cupcakes...oh and their cheesecake bites. The decor isn't all that great and I really wish they would turn half that huge space into a chill coffee shop space(I'LL INVEST!), because I would live there(honestly the only reason I hesitated to give it 5). But hey, that is the owner's business(literally). Rumor has it the owner is an ex NASA rocket engineer who pursued a dream of making people happy by providing the tastiest treats in the land. The second part I made up, but the NASA part is apparently true- Which would make sense because these treats are out of this world(...see what I did there?) Space puns aside, try for yourself; You won't regret it. (unless you are counting calories...then you're effed...but still won't regret it) read more

Holy giant donut! I've never been in this bakery, but have had sweets from here. My office has this unspoken rule... when it's your birthday, you bring in sweets-- like elementary school. It works for us. Many people have brought in treats from this bakery. The donuts are huuuuge! They are pretty tasty as well. Can you review a place that you've never stepped foot in- not sure so i'll keep this short and sweet :) read more

It's not a blessing that I live minutes from this place but it's also not their fault. Lol They have everything from donuts, cakes, cookies, pies, bread and even candy. I'm sure I missed something but you must understand that I'm not in the right frame if mind when I walk in here. The donuts sell out pretty quickly so if you don't get them before noon, you may miss out. Unlike some other bakeries, this one is more like a cafe with places to sit, chat and people watch. They also have coffee available. Lastly, the service here is very good and they don't look at you all crazy if you stand there eyeing goodies because you can't make up your mind. read more

A must stop desert destination! Like all bakeries, a bit pricy, but all of the offerings are colorful, beautiful, and delicious! The cafe is a great place to sit and enjoy a break from site seeing. If you are an aspiring baker, you'll find an array of confectionary supplies unmatched in the Pittsburgh area. read more

I can't believe Yelp would do a spread on bakeries without mentioning Grandview Bakery on Shiloh Street in Mt. Washington. This is the best place on the Mount without a view! They have a huge variety of donuts, danish, cookies and cakes. Free WiFi and places to just sit and relax while indulging on something delicious. Highly recommended by all who try it. read more

Wow. Grandview bakery needs to review their front store manager, Jen. After asking a few simple questions about cake pricing, I went around the corner to take a look at some cake designs in their books. While I was looking through some designs, the manager goes to a coworker "after all THAT, she didn't order anything?!" I promptly said I was still there and she rushed to "help me" with designs. She left for her smoke break and I left choosing not to purchase my cake from them. Can't answer a few questions about cakes? I believe that's part of your job. If I question the service of the store manager, I question the quality of the cakes. read more

Really?? Just 17 reviews for this place?? I wanted to mainly walk up and down the Grand-view ave the whole time after we came up the Mon incline. But nature calls and off I wandered looking for a restroom. The decent human being in me, asked my hubby to buy something here and my gad, was I pleasantly surprised. Holy cupcake heaven!! The cupcake I tried had the softest cake, fluffiest icing and the candied almond topping was simply orgasmic. I avoid giving my daughter sugar, but come on, she had to taste this!! There are lots of different things you can taste from their samples and the store also is the "Walmart" of cupcake supplies. read more

Simply put: best doughnuts I've ever had. They're huge, fresh, and uber tasty! Many varieties too. Price is fair for a dozen (about $9.50). Much better than the national chains. Staff is very friendly, and always greet with a smile. Only issue is location. The parking is hit or miss, as it's on a small strip of commerce in Mt. Washington. I've been here 3 times, and I'm confident that I've found a great spot that I'll take my weekend business to for years to come! read more

Everything is awesome, the staff is friendly my only complaint is the coffee is a bit weak. My favorites are the caramel sea salt chocolate chip cookie at .99 it is a bargain. Every cupcake I tried was delish and fresh. read more

I stopped in here to buy a few Valentine goodies. There were cupcakes, cookies, chocolates, and other items to choose from. I took advantage of the selection of goodies and bought a variety of items for all of my valentines. I may have even bought one or two items for myself. I bought a Magic Bar for myself. They have chocolate chips, coconut, caramel, and just lots of goodness. They tasted like Mom used to make. It brought on a bit of reminiscing. I can't wait to deliver the goodies to my valentine's tomorrow. read more

Somehow I did not realize this place existed despite my many trips up to Shiloh St in Mt Washington. Even though we were not too long before closing on a Saturday, they had a good solid selection of eats. We got a Strawberry pie, a cupcake and some bread. Everything was scrumptious. I cannot wait to go back and try some more! I suggest checking this fine find out! read more

Grandview Bakery reminds me of that classic Pittsburgh neighborhood bakery. The staff is friendly and the variety of options are mind-boggling. They sell coffee and offer seating for patrons to enjoy their treats inside the store. The bakery is clean and bright. I had the candied apple and tiramisu cupcakes, the cheesecake muffin, and a classic glazed doughnut. All were good, but I would especially recommend the cheesecake muffin if you don't desire something too sweet. Doughnuts in the most popular flavors sell out fast and early. I visited Grandview Bakery on Saturday afternoon at 1pm. There were other patrons in the store, but it was not too busy. I'm glad to have found this gem! read more

When I first tried Grandview Bakery, I didn't expect there to be so many choices! Donuts, cookies, cakes galore, chocolate candy, baking supplies...the list goes on. The cupcakes are delicious and reasonably priced, which is nice now that some places in the city charge so much for a dozen. They're great at customizing your order. I recently ordered cupcakes for our company's birthday and they worked with me on colors and type of cupcake and turned the order around in perfect time for our celebration. A couple weeks later we chose them again for a sheet cake for our company picnic. Everyone loved the cake and it did well in the few days after the picnic, too :) read more
