This is a decently popular, somewhat upscale cake and sweet shop. I decided to give it a try and…read morejust taste one of their classic frosted brownie. It was alright. Honestly nothing too special, and quite a bit more expensive than at other places in the city and in the area. The frosting was pretty good, pretty rich, but the brownie itself was fairly dry. Nothing really special about it. Portion was pretty good though. I may come back to try a few other items, but I just didn't find this place all that special.

This location used to be a Gigi's Cupcakes, but apparently it was sold to Bella Christie's. Bella…read moreChristie's is a locally owned bakery whose first location is in Aspinwall. Bella Christie's bakers and pastry chefs make cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and pastries. They even make custom cakes and event tables for weddings, birthdays, and other special events. Cakes are available in about a dozen flavors (e.g., vanilla, chocolate, banana, and hazelnut) with about a few dozen flavors of fillings (e.g., almond custard, mango mousse, raspberry jam, peach compote, espresso buttercream, and fruit). When I entered this business, I saw two display cases that were full of macarons, cheesecakes, mini cupcakes, cupcakes, cookies, and brownies. An employee immediately and kindly greeted me. As I was selecting my desserts, the employee carefully bagged and boxed them. She accurately rang up my purchase, and she thanked me. Here are my reviews for the desserts: Strawberry milkshake cookie - $2.75 - 4.5 stars - This cookie looked the prettiest in the display and had the most unique-sounding flavor. It was pink and had sprinkles and white chips mixed in. The cookie was a large size, and it was fresh and moist. I liked the strawberry flavor. Strawberry milkshake cupcake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - Can you tell that I like strawberry milkshakes? :) This cupcake was a good size, and it consisted of moist pink cake that had strawberry pieces mixed in. It was topped with fresh, creamy strawberry and white icing with sprinkles. On top was a paper straw, and I put it in my mouth because I had assumed that it was white chocolate--oops! Lemon blueberry cupcake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - This cupcake was also a good size. The cake was lemon yellow with a few blueberries mixed in. On top was a blueberry-flavored buttercream icing that was topped with two fresh blueberries and a lemon gummy. I enjoyed these flavors. Turtle cheesecake - $4.50 - No rating - My husband ate this cheesecake. He said, "It was fine." One additional thing that I noticed was that the plastic tray that held the cupcakes was type 6 plastic, which is not recyclable in our community. I wonder if the owners could explore other options for the tray.

This is such a cute and fun place! It is a bit overpriced (higher prices than many comparable…read morebakeries) but you also have a neat space to enjoy your goodies in and extended hours (some nights they are open until 10) so that outweighs the slightly higher cost. My favorite item I tried was their lemon bar. It had just the right combination of sweet and tart and the crust to filling ratio was also on point. I've also enjoyed their cookies, cinnamon rolls and cupcakes. I really enjoy that you can relax with a glass of wine and a baked good. not a combination that is possible at a lot of places. Service is friendly and accommodating. They answered questions and gave recommendations. This is a great spot for a date night or a girls get togehter.

This place is amazing. My great uncle first took me here. He lived in Millvale his entire life…read more He had grown up with my grandmother and her sisters after being orphaned. My first memory was of him picking up an order and bringing it with him to visit my grandparents all the way down in Beaver County. After that, every time he visited my grandmother, he would show up with these little round cookies that were an absolute treasure. I never knew where they came from but nowhere else in Pittsburgh seemed to have them available. It wasn't until I moved out for college that he shared the secret- he got them here and took me while he picked up his order. What a treat! This was our secret place to pick up treats that are always a hit whenever we bring them along.

It also sells other foods such as breakfast sandwiches, coffees, and dog cookies. My husband and I shopped in this bakery one time. An employee immediately and kindly greeted us. It was a late morning on a Saturday, and the display cases were mostly stocked with baked goods. Unfortunately, the display cases had no signs to indicate what the baked goods were, so I felt unsure of what some of them were. I recommend that the bakery add signs with the names of the baked goods. I chose a cookie (5 stars) and a bear claw (4.5 stars). The total price was a few dollars including a tip. I have no idea what exact flavors they were! Perhaps I should have asked the employee. But they tasted great! If you want to eat here, some indoor tables and chairs were available.

Also love their cold brew range of their baked goods and food options, the focaccia was really nice and would definitely try more. They have a ton of seating inside, a few outside too, but definitely a great space to hang out or get some work done. There was a bit of a wait for the drinks, but only because there was only one poor barista handling a huge rush, and they did an incredible job despite that! Overall nice neighborhood spot for fun drinks and catch up!
