| - While we are on the topic, (see previous Yelp!) I figured I should give a little shout out to Paddy Cake as well. Paddy Cake is an old school bakery, and it may not be one of your new-fangled bakeries like the French joint in Squirrel Hill with pastries that you can't pronounce that look delicious but end up tasting like old parchment, but this place is a great bakery!
You will find homemade breads and rolls, cookies, cakes, pies, along with some very delectable pastries, all with names you can read and pronounce. Some of my favorites are the cherry & cheese turnovers- they're called double or half/half or something- because they have a cherry side and a cheese side. Best of both worlds! And the breads & rolls, of course I am a bread girl.... They have the best chocolate thumbprints, hands down! And even though I am NOT a doughnut person, I find myself nibbling on a doughnut when the BF brings them home.
If you like grandma's old fashioned baked goods, you'll like this place, if you like le almond croissants or le chocolat whatsacallit, then maybe not.
