At Penzey's they have so many spices all hand packed. Anything you can think frozen pizza spice mix, dips and more! All the spices come in different sizes. I found vanilla sugar, which I never thought I would see on a store. Up till visiting I had only heard vanilla sugar was amazing in coffee, now I am confirm - it is amazing in coffee. It is sugar blended with real vanilla bean. You can use it in coffee, also in baking and on fruit. I was very happy to grab a bottle!

Our food tour stopped in Penzeys Spices, not to sample anything, but to pay homage to a Strip District stalwart. Although most of the establishments in the Strip are local and not chains - Penzeys does exist across the United States. However, a fun fact that they shared - this Pittsburgh location outsells all of the other 44 locations during the winter holiday months! Soooo... yinzers show up and show out for Penzeys! With spices for every dish, every culture, and curated meticulously to give you a full adventure through the store, you should come in here just to learn about spices, if not to find a new favorite or recipe maker!!

I've never been to the shop but I love the products I get here. The fry seasoning and ranch is a must.

Really appreciated the time to give me more info and I love the recipes cards you can take if you need some inspiration.

As I walked around the store to browse the merchandise, an employee greeted me. I saw many types of peppers, spices, herbs, teas, sugars, honeys, and more. I thought that the prices were moderate to high. I selected a carne-asada blend, a banana-nut muffin herbal tea, and a tea infuser for $33 plus tax. At the checkout, one customer was ahead of me in line, and I waited several minutes for my turn. A tea bar was there for freshly made teas. The cashier rang up my purchase and told me to have a great weekend. At home, I used the tea and infuser, and I liked them. Soon I will try the spices.

I also frequently give them as gifts because I am so passionate about the difference these seasonings make in food, which is what inspires this review. Last year I sent a package as a gift and that friend has become a regular mail order customer. This year, for my sister-in-law's birthday, I recalled her saying how she has enjoyed several varieties at my house and hoped to get to the shop sometime when she was in town from Morgantown. So I sent her a box, and over the past few days she has been so enthusiastic I am getting constant reports on everything she is using the seasonings on. Dill Pickle salt on fries. Bagel on Grant seasoning (which is the best bagel seasoning you have ever tried, I promise you) on avocado toast, at my recommendation. She was trying them straight out of the jar the first evening she received them. They are honestly that good. I love the Black and Gold blend on corn or eggs, and during a time I was dropping a lot of weight a few years ago the Steeltown Garlic and Herb was my go-to, as it still is, when roasting trays of potatoes, veggies and tofu for meal prep. An unsung hero in the line is the relatively new Unsalted Shallot and Chive, which is a great addition to so many things and a nice option if you are trying to watch your salt intake. Customer service is super quick and helpful, if you are ordering online the orders arrive in a blink, but if you have a chance to stop out at the shop definitely do. Millvale is a great part of town and the shop is fun to browse.

They have a great gluten free grocery section, lots of frozen items, gluten free breads in the frozen section, awesome pantry selections, organic health and beauty items and all the latest supplements, vitamins and protein shakes. I also likes the fact that they have a book section of the store. The staff was very nice, informative and helpful. Coming from someone who lives in NYC and has the best stores around me, I thought this place was well stocked, priced right and great all around. If you live in the area and you are a vegetarian or just interested in general wellness and health; I would definitely come here and shop. This place has been around for 32 years! Shop local and support local businesses!
