OUR STORY

From Home Kitchen
to Community Café

Baked True North started in 2016 in a small home kitchen with a big dream: to create baked goods that everyone could enjoy, especially those living gluten‑free.

What began as a passion project quickly grew into a beloved local destination. We expanded into a commercial kitchen and eventually opened our storefront café on Perry Highway in Pittsburgh’s North Hills.

Our kitchen is 100% gluten‑free. We also offer a wide selection of dairy‑free and vegan options, because we believe everyone deserves delicious baked goods without compromise.

Beyond baking, our café is a warm gathering spot featuring specialty coffee, vintage finds, and a community that celebrates gluten‑freedom.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Ashley C.
This gluten-free bakery and cafe is five-star any way you look at it! I recently took my sons there I took to see if they might be able to tell the difference between gluten-free cupcakes, donuts and cookies, and guess what?!?! THEY HAD NO CLUE—everything was so yummy!!😋 Baked True North offers a variety of delicious, gluten-free baked goods and coffee, using only the finest ingredients, in the cutest vintage-inspired diner. Definitely check it out!
Heaven B.
There is no place like Baked True North around! To know it’s a dedicated gluten free and celiac-safe space is such a relief. There are dairy free and vegan options too. They have staples (my fav are the breakfast sandwiches and cinnamon rolls) but the rotating menu lets you try some fun seasonal treats. Completely recommend!
Jude P.
I have been gluten free for 19 years, and never have I had such good all gluten free food before. The atmosphere feels like home, and it feels like eating at a grandmas kitchen. 10/10 would recommend
John D.
Super neat spot! The food was incredible, truthfully you wouldn’t really be able to tell it’s Gluten Free! At least I couldn’t and I didn’t start not eating gluten until about a year ago because my partner’s child has celiac. Highly recommend this place to anyone even if you still eat gluten! Wonderful people, welcoming energy. Will return again!

Even if you aren’t gluten free, yummy pastries for all! Staff are really kind and they’ve got cute market items like teas and maple syrups. Highly recommend the scones!

I stumbled upon Baked True North, a charming gluten-free bakery in the north of Pittsburgh, and it’s truly a hidden gem! The place is so cozy and aesthetically pleasing, perfect for a little escape. Their cookies are not only delicious but also so cute – they have a vintage-themed collection that makes the experience even more special. And don’t even get me started on their coffee – it’s the perfect pairing for their sweet treats. Whether you’re gluten-free or just love great baked goods, this spot is a must-visit!
Jamie W.
This place is amazing! I’ve never been disappointed with anything I’ve tried. I regularly buy their English muffins, breakfast sandwiches, coffee, and other pastries/goodies. Having celiac disease, it can be tough finding quality GF food/baked goods, so it feels incredible to walk in here and have the freedom to literally eat anything they have! Thank you for all you do!
Clare C.
I can’t begin to tell you how much you all lift my mood and my heart each time I come to visit. The woman with the short red hair reminds me to live slowly and with empathy and love, just with her calming presence. Sending you all huge gluten free hugs! And oh man, the apple fritter with a cup of coffee this morning really made my day. I have NEVER had such a good gluten free donut. With love and a full tummy, Clare.
