OMBakery!! I honestly cannot believe I have never reviewed a place I have been going to for…read moredecades. Did you know they've been around since 1960 and are still family-owned and operated? The quality and goodness in their products doesn't waiver. From the time I was a kid until now. This was the place to get our birthday cakes and treats on special days when in the neighborhood. Everything from the scones to cookies and everything in between is pure sugar love. Don't even get me started on the pies and breads. I could seriously go on and on. You know Beaver is just so cute and the bakery is in the heart of its cuteness and yum. If you go, which you need to, start with the cinnamon rolls. Trust me. Holy poo they are amazeballs.

It sells baked goods such…read moreas breads (e.g., French, pumpernickel, rye, pullman, whole wheat, tuscan, rustic sour, focaccia, six grain, cinnamon, raisin, banana, and ciabatta), off-the-shelf and custom cakes, cookies (e.g., sugar, M&M, oatmeal-walnut-raisin, butterball, and gingerbread), donuts (e.g., paczki, glazed, iced, jelly, and bavarian cream), pastries (e.g., biscotti, danishes, muffins, scones, turnovers, brownies, cannolis, claws, puffs, eclairs, almond cups, rum balls, and pineapple squares), pies (e.g., coconut cream, fruit feuilletee, apple, cherry, peach, and pumpkin), and tortes (e.g., banana, black forest, chocolate, lemon, pistachio, strawberry, and almond). Local delivery is available for a fee. My husband and I shopped here one time. Employees immediately and kindly served us. Many baked goods in the display cases looked tempting, so I needed time to make up my mind about what I wanted to buy! I chose baklava (4 stars, thick layer of nuts), lady lock (4 stars, not quite as good as my mom-in-law's), apricot sourcream (4 stars), snickerdoodle cookie (4.5 stars), and Very Berry Napoleon (5, nicely fruity and sweet). The total price for these five baked goods was $10.46.

My book club read A Man Called Ove in January, in anticipation of the movie, A Man Called Otto…read morecoming to theaters. As you may know, part of the movie was filmed in Ambridge and this bakery is used in one of the scenes. The main characters visit this bakery and have a Swedish eclair, or Semlor. I was hosting our book club this week and thought it would be fun to pick up some semlors for our treat. I called the day before (not realizing they are closed Sunday-Tuesday) to place an order for 18 semlors. They said it would be no problem to make them for me, even though I only gave them just over 24 hours notice. The bakery was beautifully painted back to how it was originally when it opened many many years ago. There is limited seating (only one small table and two chairs) so it's not really meant to be an eat-in bakery. The semlors were a hit with book club! Everyone enjoyed them quite a bit. They did seem to be a little dry to me. Not sure if we got "day old" semlors or they were just drier than I would have guessed. The filling was delicious and plentiful. Would love to come back and try some other items they have--the giant cookies look so yummy!

Unassuming from the outside, it is a small bakery with plenty to offer in the form of homemade baked goods, as well as some candy thrown in for good measure. We enjoyed their maple pastry and they delicious cinnamon roll. The baker was a bit rearranged from the movie - no big deal - and the service was super friendly and answered our questions on when they came to tape for the movie. It was a fun stop and their baked goods are truly delicious.

Cut out the middleman. Go straight to the source. Pros:…read moreSure, Mediterra sells their bread by the loading docks of their bakery. Sure, they are located in a business park. But when you can buy bread that literally just came out of the oven, or croissants, pastries, muffins, and scones that were just made an hour ago, you've got to come here. They will even slice your bread if you ask, which is service that goes above and beyond. Cons: You will not be blown away by the ambiance. The bread is sold literally in the entrance way of the business. You may be parking next to an 18-wheelers loading or unloading. But who cares, their bread is awesome! Summary: Mediterra has quickly become my favorite bakery on the west side of Pittsburgh.

Mediterra Bakehouse was founded in 2001, and they bake dozens of artisan breads that they sell to…read moreconsumers and other businesses. Products include deli loaves (e.g., multigrain, challah, pumpernickel, rye, and sourdough), sandwich buns (e.g., white, wheat, pretzel, and potato), table loaves (e.g., ciabatta, Italian, chili cheddar, chocolate cherry, focaccia, and pecan cranberry), dinner rolls (e.g., challah, French, onion poppy, and rosemary), and baguettes (e.g., sourdough, multigrain, and sesame seminola). I saw on their website that they also have a cakehouse that bakes custom cakes with various icings, fillings, and toppings. For my first purchase, I ordered five breads from Mediterra Bakehouse. All of the breads were a very large size and were fresh, and they cost about several dollars each. Here are my reviews for them: Farm deli loaf - 3 stars - The physical shape and design of this bread was gorgeous, but the flavor was a little plain. Challah hamburger buns - 4 stars - These hamburger buns tasted good. They were very large, so I had extra bread around my hamburger patties. Mt. Athos fire bread - 3 stars - This wheat bread was a generous size, but it tasted slightly plain. Hawaiian dinner rolls - 5 stars - These dinner rolls were moist and had a slightly sweet flavor. Parmesan pepper loaf - 2 stars - This bread contained way too much pepper and too little parmesan. It was so peppery that I threw away most of it. UPDATE on December 26, 2021: A few weeks ago, I rated this business as 3 stars, but I am now increasing my rating to 4 stars after I bought three more of Mediterra's breads. Here are my reviews for the breads: Stollen - 5 stars - This bread contained nuts and dried/candied fruits, and it was covered in powdered sugar. My husband and I really enjoyed the taste of this bread. Chocolate cherry - 4 stars - This bread loaf contained cocoa powder, dark chocolate, and dried cherries. I prefer milk over dark chocolate, but I still enjoyed the flavor of this unique bread. Pecan cranberry - 4.5 stars - This wheat bread contained cranberries and pecans. I really liked the combination of flavors.

I saw display cases that contained cupcakes, scones, rolls, cheesecakes, brownies, blondies, etcetera. I purchased four baked goods: one cinnamon roll, two cookies, and one muffin. After I paid several dollars for my four baked goods, I noticed several slips on the wall. The employee said that the slips were prepaid and that customers could use the slips to receive free foods. How nice! I appreciate whoever paid for those slips. I ate my four baked goods at home. The snickerdoodle cookie (5 stars) was one of my favorite snickerdoodles that I have ever eaten in my life. The cinnamon roll (4.5 stars) was a large size and had a sweet maple flavor that I liked. The banana-caramel muffin (4.5 stars) was nicely sweet and was topped with a banana chip. The oatmeal-raisin cookie (4.5 stars) was medium-sized and had the right ratio of ingredients. Overall, Sugar Butter Bakery's selection of baked goods was not large, especially in the late afternoon when I went, but their quality was high. I recommend stopping in Sugar Butter Bakery if you are in the area.

I've been counting my…read morecarbs since integrating the ketogenic lifestyle into my life however, I do miss my baked goods and pastries. The Cakery seems like a God send to me. This place is seriously doing the Pittsburgh region a service by providing a variety of tasty low carb options. During my visit, I learned the bakery started offering keto items because the owner started the diet. Most "diet" or low carb alternatives are not as good as the real deal. The keto items at The Cakery are an exception. I got two loaves of bread cheddar bacon and cheddar jalapeño, along with a slice of chcolate cake and some chocolate cheesecake bites. The cheesecake bites tasted amazing and definitely satisfied my sweet tooth. The bread was my favorite buy. It had the consistency of cornbread and was full of flavor. Making low carb food can sometimes be a hassle. The Cakery is making my keto journey much easier by saving me time from prepping some meals and also satisfying my sweets cravings. I will definitely be visiting regularly!

The Cakery is a local business that makes custom and non-custom cakes, cupcakes, pies, cookies, and…read moreother desserts. They even offer some desserts for diabetic and ketogenic diets. I did not need a large, custom order, so I stopped by the business to browse their offerings. I saw two display cases of cakes, bars, brownies, fudges, scones, and cookies, and I saw one refrigerator of cinnamon rolls, banana breads, muffins, etcetera. An employee immediately greeted me, and as I selected my desserts, she carefully placed them in a box for me. She made friendly conversation, accurately rang up my purchase, and kindly thanked me. Here are my reviews for my desserts: Raspberry vanilla cake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - I bought one slice of white cake that had vanilla frosting and some raspberry filling. The cake was fresh and had tart flavors, and the icing tasted sweet. Cherry pie bar - $3 - 4 stars - This bar contained a top layer of cherries. The flavor of cherries was subtler than I had expected. Apple pie bar - $3 - 3.5 stars - This bar contained a very thin layer of apple. I would recommend adding more apples for more flavor. Lemon pie bar - $3 - 5 stars - This bar had a strong taste of lemon and a nicely crispy crust. Cherry-chocolate scone - $3.25 - 3.5 stars - This scone was a large size. It contained a thin layer of cherries and chocolate chips. 6 various cookies - $5 - I rate the peanut-butter cookie as 4 stars, the sugar-sprinkle cookie as 3.5 stars, the snickerdoodle cookie as 3.5 stars, the chocolate-chip cookie as 3.5 stars, the oatmeal-raisin cookie as 4.5 stars, and the chocolate-cherry cookie as 3.5 stars. Of course, everyone has their own personal taste, but in general, my higher ratings are for the intense flavors.

We sat down to enjoy a treat and looked around. There's also a big and beautiful bathroom on-site too. Decorated beautifully- it is a cozy meeting spot to have breakfast or a lite lunch and a bakery treat. They even have doggie cupcakes for anyone who has a pup!
