This was my first visit and I already can't wait to be back! The staff is so kind and walked me through the menu & seasonal items. There's a good variety of GF items and some DF ones too - including donuts, cupcakes, scones, more treats and breakfast sandwiches. They also have a coffee and tea bar, and I recommend the London Fog (many places in PGH don't seem to offer this tea, and it's delicious).

For all my gluten free and vegan peeps out here with a sweet tooth... if you haven't been here yet idk what you're doing !!Is on Perry Highway right across from the plaza with Rite Aid at the light. I will say they don't really indicate they are gluten free, I found out because I went to their instagram. Wish they advertised more because I know quite a few people who have celiac's and they never knew this spot is GFInside has a decent bit of seating and is giving granola vibes. There are a ton of options of donuts, cupcakes, muffins, bars, cookies, breakfast sandwiches , etc.If you're ever curious about the menu head over to their instagram they post it there. I will say that the girl behind the counter who helped me did was snarky and started getting annoyed with all my questions.

An entirely gluten free bakery!!! As the best friend of someone with celiac disease, i am always trying to find yummy places for us to go to that are accessible and have gf options. This place was great! the staff were SO kind and helpful. I am not a huge sweets person, so this was tricky for me to rate, but i was extremely impressed with the espresso brownie. it was so rich and didn't taste like it was GF at all. i inhaled it. The cupcakes were a little dry but the frosting was delicious and def made up for it. Also loved the chocolate chip cookie and the lemon bar!!Lastly, I really like that they also serve savory items like breakfast sandwiches. We got ham and swiss on focaccia and were SO impressed by the texture. Usually gf bread crumbles immediately, but this one had a great texture and really nice flavor.

A gluten-free bakery located on Perry Highway, near Wexford. They feature delicious coffee drinks, amazing gluten- free baked goods as well as vegan and dairy free options, and fun vintage items. I am not gluten-free but wanted to check them out and WOW- everything I tried was amazing. It does not even taste like gluten-free which is amazing. The textures, flavors and diversity is really amazing. Tried the breakfast sandwich which was a gluten free English muffin with sausage, egg and cheese. It was really tasty! Got some cinnamon rolls and cupcakes to go! Also had a London Fog which totally hit the spot! Everything is very fairly priced. They have a great staff and quick service which is perfect to grab and go!

I LOVE Baked True North!! I have only had positive experiences here, and today I got two of the most amazing items I've ever tasted in my life!! The strawberry snickerdoodle cookie was phenomenal, delicately sweet and chewy and ugh just literally perfection... wow. This place is a blessing to folks with dairy & gluten allergies!! I personally love ginger beer so I decided to try the Jackworth Ginger Beer and it's truly the best ginger beer I've ever had! It tastes like a fresh squeezed piece of ginger with a little sugar and carbonation, it's also truly perfect!! The employee that took care of me was so sweet and happy to help out. I love the way the inside of the store looks and feels too, and all around Baked True North is one of the most precious gems in all of the North Hills!!!! Thank you for doing such an incredible job to bring tasty and comforting treats to those who struggle to find allergen friendly items

I love Baked True North! We've been a customer since before they had a brick and mortar. My sister has Celiac Disease so finding somewhere safe for her to eat is always a win! We've ordered cupcakes for special occasions multiple times and they are incredible, you can't even tell that they're gluten free. The peanut butter cupcake with chocolate frosting and carrot cake cupcake with cream cheese frosting are top notch. My sister loves the cinnamon rolls in the bakery too. The lemon bars are amazing!!! The bakery is really cute too, they even sell retro/vintage home items. Definitely would recommend Baked True North even if you're not gluten free!

Baked True North is a bakery that opened in June 2022, and it sells *gluten-free* foods. I am not on a gluten-free diet, but I felt curious to try the foods. I sent my husband to buy some goodies for me. He said that the employee had a friendly personality and that she provided timely service. Here are my reviews for the foods:Lemon bar - 4 stars - $2.25 - The size was small/medium. The crust on the bottom was appropriately crispy. The filling was very lemony. On top was powdered sugar.Brownie - 4 stars - $3 - This brownie was extremely chocolately. The texture was more like fudge than cake. Chocolate chips were on top.Cookies - 3.5 stars - $3.85 each - My husband picked out two flavors, and he could not remember what they were called. One cookie appears to be a toffee snickerdoodle, which I rate as 4 stars. The other cookie appears to contain nuts, and I rate it as 3 stars. Muffin - 3.5 stars - $3 - This muffin had a cinnamon flavor. The center was moist, and crumbs were on top.Overall, I rate the foods at Bake True North as good. If you are on a gluten-free diet, then I encourage you to check out this business.

Ventured out to this spot while on a business trip. As a celiac desserts are quite possibly the most difficult thing to normalize while preserving the taste, texture, and consistency of the "normal" versions. Of course at the end, when lacking all of that one tends to feel let down and unsatisfied. So I stopped in to see what the local hype was all about. I got the breakfast sandwich, a take on a sausage, egg, and cheese English muffin breakfast sandwich. Not usually a fan of English muffins to be fair but their take on it was close as I imagine you can get. It was pretty good, not being a usual fan of the texture anyhow. Also got the glazed donuts, a lemon/raspberry cupcake and a chocolate cupcake and a couple cinnamon rolls. This is where the magic is. I was fully prepared to be letdown by the donut for the mere fact of the thickness of it. The outside looked false and sweet but this sucker was about 2" thick. That combo usually equals the consistency of eating chalk in the Florence freee world. I was SHOCKED to realize they managed to integrate the glaze throughout even the center of this monster, all the while holding together. It looks like cake but this sucker is entirely glazed, mousy and DELISH! Possibly my favorite donut ever! The cupcakes were also extremely well constructed and the frostings were sweet but not too sweet and totally escaped that weird film in your mouth you can sometimes get with frostings. The cinnamon rolls were packed with cinnamon goodness and after a quick 20 seconds in the microwave they melted in your mouth like velvety cinnamon butter but heart enough to be a meal. Run, do not walk to this establishment and be prepared to be WOWED!
