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!

My favorite is the blanc and noir gourmet pancakes which come with Nutella, vanilla cream, and either strawberries or bananas. The attention to detail is also great here. I usually get hot tea and they bring out a tea bag holder and, if you ask for cream, they bring it out in a cute espresso cup. One thing to note is that you order at the counter, but they bring your food to you at your table.

I stopped into Churn for their first book club meetup, and it was a great time…read more If you stay for book club, you receive 20% off your purchase, but their prices are already very reasonable. The staff are all so friendly and personable, and if you like pink, you'll love their interior and exterior. Their menu features a variety of sweet treats, and it was hard to pick just one thing! I opted for the peanut butter Oreo milkshake, and it was delicious. I like a thicker milkshake, and this was the perfect consistency. I'll be back for next month's book club, but I'll definitely be back before then to try the coffee!

My husband and I shared peanut butter cup and Kit Kat in a waffle bowl since it was so huge. We both liked the peanut butter cup the best. It was super creamy and super flavorful. The Kit Kat was just ok. The one lady who took our order wasn't super friendly. The other girl who was ringing the register and got one of the ice creams was very nice.

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.

I heard this was one of the famous bakeries I must check out in Pittsburgh. I got their pistachio…read moreeclair, ham and cheese croissant, and almond croissant -- all tasted wonderful and light. 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!

I believe it was sliced provolone, marinara sauce then parmesan cheese on top. Absolutely delicious! I'm so happy to be finding good pizza around the city lately! I didn't snag a baked good while I was in but they all looked just as delicious as the pizza! Service was quick and friendly. No real seating inside but there are tables outside for warmer days.

I ate one meal here. When I entered the business, two employees greeted me. I used a touchscreen kiosk to place my order and to pay. Minutes later, the employees handed my foods to me. The dining rooms had some tables and chairs for me to sit and eat. Later, when I was leaving, the employees said goodbye. The prices were moderately high but worth it. Dubai-chocolate strawberry cup - 4.5 stars - A cup contained much kataifi, chocolate, and strawberries. I prefer the original Dubai-chocolate bars, but this strawberry version tasted very good. Lotus pancake pan - 4.5 stars - A very large pancake was topped with Biscoff cookies and syrup and tasted very sweet. Hibiscus tea - 4.5 stars - This hot tea had a nice flavor.

I am lactose intolerant and 2. they tend to feel really heavy on my stomach, especially after a full meal. This was my first time trying their non-dairy milkshakes and wow. I got the Chocolate Dipped Strawberry non-dairy milkshake and it was 10/10. The ambiance was really nice and the employees were super friendly. They gave us a few recommendations, and while we were waiting for our milkshakes, they even let us try some of their chocolate bark. I was honestly surprised by how good it was. The peanut butter marshmallow chocolate bark was my favorite, and my boyfriend ended up buying a few while I was in the restroom haha. I will definitely be back to try some of their other non-dairy options!

The cashier was very helpful in narrowing down my order as everything looked amazing. I decided on the brisket biscuit and booooy was that a great idea.

I also got a few pastries, including a strawberry puff tart which was like an elevated pop tart. It was delicious! The shop was small but there was no line at 8:45 am on a Saturday.
