Those are absolute perfection in taste and texture..piece of Heaven!!“

“Shopped today for the game party tomorrow. As always your staff of ladies make me smile from inside out. They are always so welcoming and always say HI with a smile on their face and in their voice. Your bread products are the best in the area too. Is it any wonder why I return? Yes there is. It is the smell of the bread. It is the quality of your products. And it is the happy feeling I have from each of your wonderful ladies.“

“Great cookies!“

“My partner and I got dinner down the street and just happend to stop when we saw signs for rolled ice cream. Imagine my surprise when I saw so much more than that! Plenty of baked deserts, fresh breads, and authentic Asian foods. And BUBBLE TEA. I would share a picture of what I got but it was DELICIOUS and I drank it pretty fast. I can't wait to go back. The staff was very kind and pleasant and the whole shop has a cozy vibe and is immaculately cleaned. 1 million stars if I could.“

“Stopped here on a whim while visiting Pittsburgh for the weekend. We were looking to grab a coffee and pastry and found this place close to where we were headed. Let me tell you. I would come here every day!! Delicious. We had an almond croissant, hazelnut croissant and brought some bread home. Just slices the olive loaf. I cannot explain how delicious it is. Keep doing a great job. We will be back when we visit the city again!!“

“Always love the quiche, and their sandwiches are awesome too!“

“We have been fortunate to partner with Bella Christie for about 10 years now. When it was time to plan our 30th-anniversary celebration and we needed an active station, Bella Christie was our top choice! The cotton candy machine was a huge hit, equipped with glow wands! We are eagerly looking forward to having Bella Christie at our next club event!“

“Hands down the best bakery I've been to. Shamara and her staff always pleasant. The place is clean. I've tried the cupcakes, pudding, cheesecake and all are delicious. My orders have always been precise and ready on time. If you have fur babies my dog loves her banana pudding.“

“Absolutely delicious! What made it extra special is that they partner with Robert Morris University. At the start of the semester, RMU sent an email about signing up for their birthday club to possibly win a cake! I feel so lucky, and the owners were such amazing, lovely people. We brought this cake to a friends house for soup cook-off. Although we were voting for our favorite soup, everyone agreed the lemon cake was the true winner - there were no leftovers! Thank you for such delicious desserts, and also for your kindness!“

“Tried their Mango cloud cake, Strawberry lychee cake and chocolate flavored cakes too. All the fruit flavored cakes were really good and not at all sweet like other places. Perfect!

Croissants and anything from that aisle is a must try too.“

“Bought hot sausage always do. This time tasted off. Was going to use it on Memorial Day. Had to throw it out. Just a heads up to check on it. Shop there all the time. Thanks“

“Our first experience was nothing short of amazing! We got an assortment of items and every single thing was delicious. The luxury to be able to eat anything in an entire bakery was amazing! We will be back!!!“

“Absolutely the best. The canneles are my favorite! The macarons are always amazing! A real treat every time I’m in Pittsburgh!“

“We always get biscotti and pastry here. So delicious. Today we also had lunch at the Cafe. Wonderful service and food. Nothing fancy but a good spot. Mortadella Sandwich with pesto: perfect! Prosciutto e funghi pizza: wonderful!“

“Born and Raised in Pittsburgh and moved to North Carolina last year. I was in Pittsburgh for my mom's birthday and had to stop at the shop this morning. 24 pretzels were distributed amongst family and new friends in NC. 5 stars as always. Forever yours, Hickory Algorithm“

“I Shop There Two Times A Week , Dinner Sauce & Meat Balls , Sandwichs , & Treats Amazing ♥️👍♥️“

“this is our go to bakery for all special events. white, with strawberries, and chocolate with raspberries, yummy!“

“A friend asked me to pick up a turtle cheesecake. I go here and the lady says we don’t have any made but I have a carrot cheesecake. So I took that and caught “heck” from my friend because it wasn’t what she asked for. I explained that they didn’t have any so she called and was told yes we have 3 turtle cheesecakes. Last time I buy anything there.“

“I ordered a Cinco de Mayo themed cake for a birthday and Cinco de Mayo party. The taco cake was a hit and very easy to slice. Thank you, The Cakery“

“Best biscotti I’ve ever had, so packed with flavor and reminded me of an amaretti cookie but had a delightful chewy texture. The service was also excellent, the woman at the counter was so lovely and kind, she went the extra mile and even brought us out a free coffee to have with our biscotti. Great experience I’ll definitely be back and recommend to friends.“

“Their pizza crusts are amazing. They are apparently a wholesale distributor only nowadays was wanting to go check it out but when I called in that’s what they said. They’re still open you just have to find their products at shop n save and elsewhere.“

“Thank you Bella Christie's McCandless for making my Dad's 85th Birthday Cake. It was perfect and tasted as good as it looked!“

“The bundt cakes are always perfection. Perfect flavor and not dry. Red Velvet is my absolute favorite.“

“That’s just how the cookie “crumbls”… and it’s delish!

Our family absolutely loves Crumbl! We have some local to us and we always manage to hit any on road trips and such while out and about. How could you not want a cookie the size of a small child’s head?! The photos alone would be worth the purchase!

My daughter had her birthday club coupon to use so we stopped at the one at Robinson. There is a self service check out to place your order. We were having trouble figuring out how to get her free cookie on the self check out, and the worker happily helped us.

As always, walking into the establishment, it was very clean and refreshing. The simplicity just makes it! All of the examples of that week’s cookies were set up on the counter to get a good look at for size and design. The pretty pink color of the boxes would just make anybody’s day. Think gifts with Crumbl!

Gift cards are available.

“Nancy, owner of business is so easy to work with & very accommodating. She went above & beyond in her service & cakes. She made me 2 very special cakes for a combined retirement & 60th birthday celebration. The guests raved not only about the tremendous details on the cakes but stated they were the most delicious cakes they’ve had ever had.“

“Excellent customer service, friendly and delicious! I bought 2, one for myself and was only able to eat half.“

“cellone breads are always fresh and the taste cannot be matched! bring it to Costco Charleston SC“

“Great bread many varieties available“

“That you go! Lots of delicious food, the selection of beans is fantastic and they are sold in bulk weight. The store is immaculate, and one of my favorite things is the double door system at the entrance which deters insects, varmints, and unsanitary conditions that come along with those. Oh, you can also watch the pitas being made through the glass wall as they come off the conveyor and get ready to come to your house.“

“Delicious food, good cold brew and deserts. that said. 350 bakery? more like never open bakery. this part of town is a food desert, no food in walking distance. as good as this place is, I wish there were more consistently open places to get food, sometimes i find myself not wanting a good thing if its normally just a reminder of a bad thing. which 350 bakery is!! it's a bad reminder of what this neighborhood lacks for for 142 hours out of the 168 hours we are blessed to be alive with every week, this place literally spends 85% of its time closed!!! hardly an open business“

“Absolutely the best. The canneles are my favorite! The macarons are always amazing! A real treat every time I’m in Pittsburgh!“

“Prantls has historically been my FAVORITE bakery in all of Pittsburgh. But prices have really gone up in recent years (almost doubling for my favorite items), and quality standards have gone down. The last 2 times I visited the North Side location, I received a stale cookie. A stale Prantls cookie is still pretty great, but I used to pay about $2 for a fresh iced cookie, and now it’s at least $4 and stale… 2 visits in a row! I visited on July 8th and saw old Fourth of July cookies with red frosting that had faded into the white frosting. I also ordered an Almond Torte bar (a take down of their famous cake, and something I’ve ordered many times). I mentioned that I get it every year on my anniversary because it’s what we had at our wedding. Today I received a chocolate version of the almond torte. It was quite a surprise when we unboxed it at home! Not what I asked for. I’m still giving them 4 stars because I know inflation sucks, the pandemic was hard on small businesses, and even stale or incorrectly ordered Prantls is still pretty tasty. But if you visit, maybe try out the Shadyside location?“

“Great thumb prints and biscotti!!“

“I cannot say enough good things about Potomac bakery! They provided this beautiful and delicious wedding cake for our May 2025 wedding and it was perfect. They were so accommodating to work with. My fiancé is from overseas and was only going to be here for a few days around Christmas. They came in the day after Christmas to do our cake tasting and we were so grateful! Thank you!“

“They have a Books and Bundts program for kids! Kids read 400 minutes a month and receive a free Bundlet! I reached out to Erin at the Monroeville-Wilkins Twp store to find out more information. Erin was wonderful! She brought out the reading trackers for all our students, and surprised us with their yummy Bundt cakes for our staff! Thank you so much for your support, and the absolutely delicious Bundt cakes! I can’t wait to get our kids started, so they can receive their yummy Bundlet!! Thank you from all of us at Trafford Elementary school!!“

“The cake for my daughter’s bridal shower was beautiful and delicious!“

“Great sandwiches and bakery items“

“I always came here with my mum growing up . This is what baked goods should taste like, not like the store bought bakery.

Since moving back to the South Hills, I'm definitely a return customer!!
Thank you, Dave's Terrace Bakery, for generations of treats.“
