I love Jak's bakery. All their baked goods are made in house and always taste fresh. The names can be intimidating to pronounce, but they are sure delish! Love that the store participates in Too Good To Go to minimize waste as well.

Tried some type of bread with Nutella in it. Loved the flavor of the bread but there could have been just a bit more Nutella spread through out it. Also had the pickle pizza. The pizza itself I guess was ok but I just think I will keep the pickles on my hamburger They were at the Sewickley Farmer's Market so I will def try some more of their items.

Very unique and interesting. I don't love all the flavors here but their execution is consistent, prices are fair, and everyone is sooooo nice!! I know they are still getting settled but I think at some point they could incorporate some limited seating for those who are hungry and want to eat and have a break from the cold.

OMBakery!!!! I am so lucky to have them in our neighborhood! This is a Bulgarian bakery that often had stands at local farmers markets. How fantastic is it that they now have a brick and mortar location? This is a family-owned business, husband and wife. Jak and Molly Latinova. Jak has over twenty years experience in baking classics (some with a twist) from his home country of Bulgaria. Every bite of the product they put out is pure love and Europe. Meeting them for the first time felt like talking with family. Bakery is extremely clean and modern. Feels like you're walking into grandma's kitchen. The smells and tastes are pure bliss.

Wow what a delightful little bakery! I passed by saw a new bakery and had to stop beautiful pastries fresh bread savory and sweet choices the little front counter and the bakery right in back where you can see the bakers handiwork and his ovens patient friendly baker explained all his pastries I left with an apple filled a cheese filled and a loaf of bread two minutes in the car I said tomyself have a bite of that apple pastry...well I could not stop myself and kept eating so good flaky yummy and not too sweet about 10 minutes into my drive I started in the other one and didn't stop another delicious treat this time savory with the cheese later that night put some jam on a slice of that bread Give this little bakery a try its so good what a nice addition to the Bloomfield neighborhood no problem finding street parking

Great spot for dessert after dinner or as part of a date, too. I specifically went in for the "fancy" hot chocolate, which is made with real chocolate pieces. The baked goods were also tasty - my only suggestion is to make sure you ask to have your item warmed up, depending on what you get, as they are kept in a cool case and something like a brownie for example was pretty hard to eat. The sever did recognize this and offered to heat it up after the fact; which made it perfect. All of the baked goods were perfectly wrapped or garnished. The interior has a decent amount of seating and lots of dried flowers everywhere. Definitely try the hot chocolate!

La Gourmandine is always a solid choice, and our Thanksgiving order proved it again. We picked up a…read morepumpkin tarte and an apple tarte--each meant to serve about six--and both were delicious. The flavors were balanced, the pastry was buttery and delicate, and they looked as good as they tasted. The total came to $50.65, which feels pretty standard for a French bakery once you understand the baseline is a bit higher than your typical American dessert spot. For the quality, it's well worth it. Consistently great, reliably tasty, and perfect for special occasions or whenever you want to treat yourself. The staff is friendly. It's usually busy here and not conducive to eating inside.

The croissants were great when you lightly air fry/toast them if you don't eat them right away. In Lawrenceville, it's a small location with a couple of outdoor seating but none inside. However, it is a chain so you might have one in your little area. My only thing is that the pistachio eclair is very sweet (so if you don't have a sweet tooth, maybe I'd go for another subtler dessert). I saw they have a deal where you can get a baguette, sandwich, and drink for $7. Good deal imo considering the quality of their bread, and it's a good excuse to buy a sweet treat with it!

10 stars if I could! As a New Yorker living in Pittsburgh, I take my cheesecake seriously!!!…read moreKyle's Cakes N'at absolutely delivered. I got to try the plain cheesecake, buckeye, lavender, double chocolate, biscoff, and key lime pie, and honestly every single one was delicious! His cakes are made with alot of labor & love! What made this experience even more amazing, was getting to go behind the scenes and actually help make a ton of different cheesecakes. Such a fun, hands on experience getting to see Kyle in action and the amount of hard work that goes into every order. I loved hearing his stories about his childhood and his family influences. Kyle is only 31 and has owned his business for over 7 years! That's impressive. You can really see the passion behind his baking. He works incredibly hard and even sacrifices a lot of his social life to keep growing his business, perfecting his craft, and supporting his community. Small business, big story! definitely a spot worth supporting in Pittsburgh!!!!! Thank you Kyle & Lisa

Kyle's Cakes N'at knows how to do cheesecake!…read more We came across their booth at the Greensburg Night Market and besides the four mini cheesecakes staring you down from the booth display... Kyle's nails marketing with a very recognizable and obvious logo! We immediately wanted to get a slice of the key lime cheesecake... and luckily snagged the last one. Prices seem high until you see the size and taste these cakes!! Quick and easy service, since it's all just slice and serving! Great vendor to find at any market!

They have two cases of their delicious looking pastries, one table of discounted items, and a case serving hot items. Open that case and serve yourself the hot mini quiches and empanadas. Started with a mini quiche and a beef empanada. Hubby liked his quiche. I'm not a fan of olives and they were all over my beef empanada. Will not be getting that one again. The kind young lady behind the case helped us order our very first Burnt Almond Torte. It comes in different sizes and we chose the bar as it easily serves two. She even gave us sporks to eat it with. We really loved the Burnt Almond Torte. The inside has a soft, moist vanilla cake layered with a thin layer of icing and enrobed with more icing and topped with the buttery, crunchy almonds. We will be back for more.

I started with the quiche and enjoyed it; the crust was just average but the egg filing was very good. My wife was not a fan of the empanada so we will not get that again. It was around 10 hours before we tried our Burnt Almond Torte...wow! That dessert is something that I will eat again, and again. The toasted almonds were soooo good! They were crunchy, crispy, and perfect. The Bar Cake had a white cake inside and icing on the outside; it was heavily coated in those almonds. The person who assisted was knowledgeable about the items to a point; she did not eat anything in the bakery so it was by observation. Don't care, that Burnt Almond Torte is the real deal!
