Excellent organic BREADS. My only complaint is that Allegro used the COVID Lockdown to revamp its business model. Its now Vegan - so no more delicious Pumpkon Custard Pie, Pastries with cream fillings. You can order online now for Pick-Up the same day or order something in advance. This is very convenient.

Fantastic vegan bakery! Great friendly staff and a wonderful selection of goodies. Delicioso!

Currently obsessed with their sandwiches and trying not to eat one every day. Not sure why though. Quality, delicious ingredients and...vegan! Shiitake bacon? What? So good. Staff is kind and friendly. Highly recommend!

Love this place, hope they bring back the Kofta Melt 😋!

Truly A Must Visit/ Must Delight In/ Must Give Thanks For Bakery. We are lucky to have some wonderful bakeries in The Burgh. Allegro has been in my top five since I moved here in 2005, and now with their fully revamped/totally plant-based menu, they have become my favorite. Before their vegan-revamp, I always adored their bread (best olive bread in Pittsburgh then and now); and now I am obsessed with their pastries--particularly their cookies (just tried their maple-pecan: so good), their babka, and their rugelach. They have the most buttery vegan butter perhaps possible.

Finally got to try the cake.Amazing. The sandwich was huge too, and the little crispy bacon-y pieces were surprisingly good. But the cake tho. You will not regret getting the cake.

Like everyone else, Allegro Hearth had to close at the beginning of the lockdown. They spent their downtime reinventing and when they recently reopened, their menu was all vegan. I just got back there for the first time since their reopening and am absolutely blown away by the quality of their baked goods. I didnt think it was possible, but theyve actually gotten better!! This is a cruffin and I am completely obsessed with them - its croissant dough baked in a muffin pan. Crunchy and sugary on the outside, moist and fluffy on the inside, made with vegan butter developed by the owner. I also bought a sea salt brownie that is one of the richest, most satisfying brownies Ive ever had. Cannot recommend enough!!!!

WOW! Carrot cake 10/10, bread 10/10, banana nut muffin 12/10!!! The only thing we weren’t a fan of was the oatmeal cookie, it had an overwhelming taste of something (nutmeg?), we didn’t enjoy.

The stuffed sourdough is to die for. Kept coming back for more, cant even tell if its vegan. All the other pastries and breads are really nice too!

This place is probably one of my favorite parts of living in Pittsburgh. Amazing pastries, incredibly flavorful and complex vegan sandwiches, and lovely staff. Their cakes are unreal. Cant recommend enough!

I stopped by on a whim after a Google search for a nearby vegan bakery, but I will definitely be a loyal customer after today. I got a double chocolate cake which was very rich and delicious, plus a danish. Even better, they were so friendly and helpful! I was happy to buy from them. I recommend Allegro Hearth to everyone, even non-Vegans, as they are a Squirrel Hill gem.

Allegro hearth really is quality. The choices they make, the options that they serve. The recipes that they offer, really are wonderful and quality. Why is it only got a two star, is because I had gotten violently ill after I ate something that I bought from there. I dont want to officially discourage people from going, because theres 99.9% wonderfulness when it comes to what they produce. But I just did get food poisoning from something that I ate from there. Now that was awful. But truly, outside of that one terrible, miserable experience, would I stop buying things from Allegro Hearth? No. Im just not going to get that one particular product.

This newly all-vegan bakery is incredible! I have gone multiple times since they reopened a few weeks ago because it’s that good. I can’t stay away. I would recommend everything but you can’t go wrong with a chocolate croissant, a slice of chocolate cake, or a cinnamon roll. Definitely a new favorite spot!

Amazing deserts for really cheap prices. The brownie is to die for. Definitely the best one I had around Pittsburgh. The staff is really friendly. They sell the previous days goods for 40% off so that is definitely a steal for the money.

Great Service, Wonderful food!!! Waited outside in the cold for about 15 minutes, Staff was helpful, welcoming, and apologetic about being out of some product. Vegan sandwiches were some of the best we have had. Olive loaf is the bomb!!!

Best bakery in city. Love this place and the great people who run this well oiled 😉 machine!

I really like this bakery. When I’m nearby I might stop by and grab a pastry or two. Their prices are surprisingly reasonable (an eclair for 2.50?). The quality of their baked goods is reasonably solid, but don’t expect anything mind-blowing. I have yet to try their bread though.

Exceptional artisan baked breads. The baguettes and sour doughs are difficult to compete with.

Excellent bakery. The attention is great

Avacado sandwitch was awesome!

Their cinnamon roll is transcendent.

The staff are so friendly and welcoming. You cant leave here without trying a kofta melt or the sourdough focaccia!

The new sandwich menu is amazing!

They have really nice sourdough and the clerks are friendly.

Poor quality and high priced. Must be a new management as it was my favorite in the past.

Vegan!!!! Everything! You would never know. What a special place... the babka YES. The pasties YES. The best chocolate chip cookies in town YES.

Delicious baked goods and excellent sandwiches!

Excellent bakery

Rudest people I have encountered in a long time to worried about someones mask I tried to be nice and got told to get the f out for being nice never again as long as it took to remodel it looks terrible the horrible remodel must have came with the rude staff

Rude staff and flavorless bakery items the cup cake icing is nasty taste like lard on a cake

Rudest staff I have every dealt with they remodeled and got rude i used to love this place not any more I will never be goin to this place again

Great bread, sandwiches and pastries!

Everyone working is always really friendly whenever I stop by when I am in Pittsburgh! I’m not sure Enrico Sabatini took a close look inside the store because I myself saw locally made jams and pastas... love their bread!!

I love their bread, their food, the hummus, everything!!

Allegro Hearth has delicious artisan breads and rolls and dessert items such as brownies, gigantic cookies, pies, and other pastries. No birthday cakes. No tables. It is not a cafe. Service is prompt and courteous. Parking for quick pick-up almost always available on the street by the store or in the driveway at the rear.

I just found out, contrary to their. websites that Allegro Hearth Bakery is closed due to the Covid 19 ... April 3, 2020. Best bakery ever, especially their layer cakes...Vanilla Vanilla and FRESH RASPBERRY.

The best bakery for custardy cream puffs!! Anytime we go we buy them all!!! Cakes, cookies, pastries and dont ever leave without trying some of the many fresh baked breads. This is one of my top bakeries to choose from because of the excellent staff and delicious treats.

Never been disappointed a bit with the pastries here. Tried the eclair (my favorite), chocolate snowball, and the petite four. All were amazing.

Most delicious hamantaschen

The product is fine but the staff is rude. My most recent experience was not my first encounter discourteous staff there, but it will be my last.

What a delightful bakery. Their breads are full of rich taste, and their pastries are some of the beset Ive ever had. Their croissants just blew me away - delicious.Two nice bonuses:- they have coffee and tea. Perfect for a breakfast.- they sell day-old baked goods at 40% off.

This place has changed since it was remodeled the staff is so rude I saw a man whose car almost got hit several times cause he parked it to far over I went in to tell them he should move his car before it got hit they were more concerned about my mask and told me to get the f out REALLY I didnt yell or do anything that deserved to be spoke to like that this place has gone down hill

Chocolate eclair, cream puff, chocolate cream puff, cinnamon bread... all awesome. They often have organic bread, too, as well as several fancy breads they only make at certain times during the week. Just generally a very nice bakery, and they also have organic hummus and several cheeses.

Coffee cakes are unbelievable; light, flaky, crumbly, sweet, mouth watery delicious. Cinnamon pecan for starters!

Best. Bakery. Ever. Everything I have tried has been outstanding! I won’t go anywhere else. Nothing compares.

Bread is meh and every type tastes the same despite different names and shapes, like the same generic base is used. Employees are incredibly short and bordering on rude, and despite the opportunity, they carry no local products or regional ingredients. 2nd Star is only for the brownies, which are decent, but not enough to warrant a special trip. Shop small, shop elsewhere.

The best bakery in Squirrel Hill but not in Pittsburgh. La Gourmandine is definitely better but this place is good with fair prices. I love their cream puffs.

Best challah bread around. My wife and I even got it for the blessing at our wedding reception. Every table had a loaf. Try toasting it and adding jam. Delicious!

Great service. Delicious bread. and Awesome punch card system. Love their cinnamon swirl bread! So glad to have them in Squirrel Hill!!!

My favorite bakery. Best breads, tasty cupcakes, wonderful cakes and pies. My go-to place for when I need something that is good and not ostentatious.

Very friendly greeting and service. Really wonderful fresh baked croissant & muffin for breakfast on the road for us. Thanks!

I work here. Its the real deal. Everything is fresh and made with love

Coming back to Pittsburgh for visit after being away for almost 9 years. Can’t wait to get my chocolate chip cookie. Will call ahead to make sure they hold one for me!

Excellent quality but need more whole grains. There are no whole grain pastries nor whole grain sour dough. Their blueberry corn bread is great.

Real bread with great dark and crispy crust. Good prices and nice service. My favorite bread bakery in Pittsburgh.

Officially closed as I went there today for chocolate only to find an empty shop.

Olive bread here is the best!Brioche and baguette are always good

This bakery can really be considered a staple of Squirrel Hill. It might not be as well-known as Gourmandine, but this is quite good for something a bit more local. Lots of pretty and inexpensive sweet treats, with the chocolate snowball being one of my new favorites.

Awesome baked goods and friendly staff. The bread loaf come in many varieties and havent been disappointed yet.

1970s was a student at CMU. Just a block away from my apartment on Hobart St. J&L, USSteel still operating, but this neighborhood smelled like fresh baked bread. We would buy a few loaves out of the back in the middle of the night. A treasured memory. Anyone know if this is the same business?

Great fresh bread! Also has select cheeses to accompany the bread choices which are great for entertaining.

This is a real bakery with a variety of bread and pastries. I have been buying my bread here for about a year now and I am very happy with it.

Great coconut chocolate cake! So moist and rich in flavor :)

They make the best cookies!

Im not sorry, this place is awesome. I love the rugelach, the breads, the kookies! Everything I have tried was yummy!

Very good bread and delicious treats! Also jams and cheese!

The bread we got was really good. One draw back is that they require a $5 minimum purchase for credit cards, which is against their merchant agreement and not allowed.

Best bread in Pittsburgh with great employees. What more is there to say?

Bread to die for. Wonderful staff.

Amazing products

Best Bakery in the US!!!!!!

The best brownie in Pittsburgh!

The apple pies are almost all apple, not the gooey jelly you find in supermarkets.

Good bakery

Excellent baked goods and breads!!!!!

Awesome bread

Thanks Allegro.

Excellent breads. I am particularly into the kalamata olive bread but everything is delicious here!
